schools He says that in the interior districts Of the
country In almost every school precinct young pee
pie may be found who have never been away from

He related some Of the incidents Of his dinner
with the King Of Siam, whom he describes as n
young man about twenty-five years of age and who

prised him, for he found nearly every dish much

present King. Ludwig, can scarcely be SAID to be
very popular the capital. or among the upper
classes Of the country: He IS man OF many
pecuharties some of which may be said almost TO
verge ON mania. Young, handsome and accom-
plished. gifted with rare intelligence, and devoted
to art and study, he has, unfortunately, permitted
himself 20 indulge in morbid love Of solitude and
distaste for society, most prejudlcial to HIM
self and to his country. Every year oil
his lie this morbid desire OF secluslon
appears to increase upon him. until at the present
moment, iI has reached q pitch which scarcely
seems to admit of reason. The King holds no court
and ehtertans no one. He scarcely ever visits the
capital and then only for day or two nj time for
matters of urgent business. He has number OF
castles all the country, o1e more retired than
the Others, and IN these he passes his time. They
are mostly known by the name or hunting lodges or
shooting boxes. But the King, unlike his father
MaximIiian, neither hunts nor shoots. HIS whole
time Is passed in solitary study, or in the dihgenr
pursuit of music and painting to both OF which
arts be Is devoted.

to think that he does occasionally indulge IN
natural rest.
The origin Of all these peculiarites is sought in the
fact that his father showed great dislike to King
