CAREFULNEss. ss.-There is no estimating the
amount of hard-earned property which is lost
through want of care in using. We wear
things out fast by not being careful. We rip
and tear, pitch and jerk, break and smash up
things entirely too much. No wonder there are
always chink- k-holes to be stopped up. No Won

character. Not long after marriage he
became enamored of the Baroness Geyer
Won Geyerberg, whom he raised to the
rank of Countess Won Hochberg. This
woman attempted to poison the Grand
Duchess, and when the latter was deliv-
cred Of an heir to the crown OF Baden,
she caused that child to be stolen. 1t was
the unfortunate creature afterward known
under the name of Casper Hauser. The
Grand Duchess was assured by the physi-
clans, all of whom were in the pay of the
Countess, that her child had died. She
believed II until her husband died, when
she secretly caused the infants coffin to
be opened. 1t was empty. Some time
afterward she gave birth to another son,
but the mother seemed to believe that
her child had been taken from her and
another substituted. This was really the
case, the substituted baby being an ille-
gitlmate son to whom the Countess Hoch-
berg had given birth about the same
time. The bastard was christened Leo
pold, and became heir apparent OF Baden
The Grand Duchess never spoke to him
even after he had become Grand Duke.
She lived in seclusiOn, and died a few
years ago. Whether her husband,
Cha les, ever discovered the fraud, GER
tain it is she finally poisoned him, where.
upod her son Leopold became Grand
Guke of Baden. He had no right, what
ever to the position, for the real heir,
Casper Hauser, was then alive. When
inquiries began to be made into Casper
Hauser's fate, the Countess Hochberg
caused him to be murdered,
The Grand Duke Leopold died in 1852,
when his son, Frederick Louis, the pres
ent Grand Duke, assembled the throne.
He married in 1857 Louisa, the only
daughter of the present Emperor of Ger
many, who has for a son-in-law the
grandson of a murderess, and the son of
bastard, who in reality. has no right
whatever to the crown Of Baden. The
Frankfort Gazette made pubic these facts,
and was furnished information by parties
in possession of the secret history. To
ascertain the names of the latter became
the task of the Prussian police, by order
of the Emperor Unable to sieze the
books of the Gazette on any direct charge
the police took advantage Of the fact that
the owner was also a partner in job
printing establishment. From that es-
tablishment had been issued a circular
rejecting on certain bankers. The latter
sued the job printing Office, and the po-
lice, on that ground, seized all the books
of the Gazette, including the subscription
list. Throughout Germany the disclos-
ures of the Gazette, and the oppressive
measures of the exasperated Emperor,
have created profound sensation. The
Emperor, who is stickler for legitimacy,
is intensely mortified by the disclosures
about his son-in-law. His daughter, the
Grand Duchess of Baden, refuses to APP
pear in public since the disclosures have
been made.
