THOUGHT THE
KAISER STUPID.
A COachman Told Him He Would Never
Set River Attire.

Set River Attire.
An amusing little story about the pres
ent emperor of Germany, William II, and
Il Vienna coachman was narrated at a ban
quct lately given at Vienna by some dplo-
matists. the narrator being himself we'll
known and prominent member of the corps
diplomatic.
In the year 1857 the present Emperor
William II Of Germany, then Prince Will
lam OF Prussia, came to Vienna visiting
his particular friend and chun, the late
Crown Prince Rudolph Of Austria. Jointed
by the Prince of Wales who WAS at that
time also frequent visitor to the Vienna
court, the three princes took Il fancy to
mingle with the commons of the Vienna
population. Dressed in ordinary clothes,
they visited places which are not in the
least regarded as suitable for lrincely guests.
One day they entered hotel, but instead
OF going into the dining room they walked
into the 'schwemme, Il place which an
| S"eio III soIHc ueSitc W tile DaTTOom OF an
American hotel in this room coachmen and
the servants of the hotel guests take their
meals.
The three princes took seats at an empty
table, and listened, highly amused. to a
fierce debate about politics between several
stout members of that class Of fashionable
| Vienna coachmen who are known all over
Europe az ''feSche Wiener tiaker." The
distinction of those characters is kind of
good natured boldness and droll familiarity
toward their customers as well as two per
feet strangers.
After listening awhile Prince William
put in word, and soon was drawn into the
excited discussion. Suddenly stout red
faced cCachman walked up to the table
where the three princes were seated, and
tapping Prince William gently on the
shoulder said. "Now, if you should ever
have anything to say in politics, you
wouldn't set river on fire, IN sure.
As every public coachman in Vienna
weais number, this coachman was upon
special request of Prince William-easily
lrutiiied The prince sent him a hand
some scarfpin with his initials as thanks
for the amusement he had furnished, and
thus the man learned in amazement whose
political abilities they were that he had so
belittled. Vienna Letter in New York

ar1y of these II is the com,nonest trouble
that human beings suffer from. 1t Is so
common that nineteenth of all the sickness
in the world is traceab]e to it. 1t IS merely
that simple, common thing-constipatlon.
There is no telling what it may lead to, but
it is sure to lead to something bad. It's I'M
mediate effects are unpleasant i'll the ex-
IRENE. 1t makes people listlcss, gives
them headaches, makes the digestion poor,
causes dizziness, loss of appetite, loss OF
sleep, foul breath and distress after eating.
All this merely because Nature has been
imposed upon and has been refused the
little help she needed.
This little help is furnished by Doctor
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. One pill is a
gentle laxative and two mild cathartic.
There are two remarkable things about the
Pellets" One is that they never grlpc;
the other that they cure permanently.
There is 10 other medicine that does cure
permanently. You can take any other
medicine you like, as long as you like. and
if you stop your trouble will come back
quickly, and the chances are the trouble
will be worse than it was before. This
isn't true of DR.. Piercc's Pleasant Pellets.
You take them until you get yourself into
perfect working order, and then you stop.
You don't have to take any more " Pellets -
unless after while you do something that
deranges your digestive system again. We
are not guessing about these facts, and we
don't ask you to take our unsupported word
for it. Thousands of people have found
that they are true, and have testified to
them Let the druggist who says that some
thing else is Just as good " sell that some
thing else to somebody else. Don't let him
trifle with your health for the sake of a
little more profit to himself

An amusing story is told on the steam
schooner Signal, now lying at the Ocean
dock. which Is yoached for by a number
OF old salts and steamboat; men Severa,
years ago the boat was making a run
from Astoria to Vancouver. u. c., and IN
passing over the Columbia river bar en-
co8ntered gale and the terrific sea that
makes that bar so dangerous at nearly
all seasons OF the year. The captain dill
no, know whether TO keep on or put about.
but he finally decided TO go over. About
this time huge sea struck the schooner
and tore away a portion OF her guard rail.
This piece of timber was tossed about like
a cork. but finally got into the motion Of
the waves and began a race TO sea with
the boat. and, according to some people
on board, actually beat the steamer to
sea After this incident II was suggested
that the Signal be transformed into a
steam hearse, but trade In this particular
line was not brisk and IL was finally de-
cided to continue her In the freight and
Chinese passenger traffic.
