PRINCE GEORGES SPEECH.
An Interesting Souvenir Of the Young
Greek In Edison's Laboratory.


There is a photograph cylinder in Edi-
SON. 8 laboratory that is just now of inter
est in view .of the fact that Prince George
of Greece has become central figure in
the European warcloud. IL contains the
princes address to Mr.. Edison on the oc-
casion of his visit to this country in 1891.
The prince displayed thirst for scien-
tiflc knowledge that surprised his hosts,
and he passed part of one day in Mr.. Edi-
sons laboratory. The phonograph inter
ested him immensely. He heard 10 grind
out the speeches of celebrated men, and
then he called for music. The phonograph
responded with the then popular Where
Did You Get That HAITI Prince George
then talked into the receiver, saying in
Greek: Hail, Edison, greatest of invent
ors. George, prince of Greece, salutee
thee" Prince George was travelling in
cognito when be visited this country, and
therefore no official receptions greeted him.
Those who had the privilege Of meeting
him here were very much impressed with
| his modest bearing and his genuine inter
est In everything that he saw. He has the
| build Of young viking He Is over Q
| feet tall is broad shouldered and has light
hair. His head is well set on a strong
neck. He weighs more than 200 pounds.
| The princes manner was that or dill
| dent man unused TO ceremony.
His rescue of the czarowitz from crazy
| japanese who attacked him was at that
| time of recent occurrence, and IL was gen.
orally believed that the whitewood cane
| that the prince carried was the stick that
saved the Russian heir. Several attempts
were made to get the prince TO tell OF that
experience. He evaded them with perfect
good nature, but in way that indicated
that he did not want TO discuss the sub
| ject. New York Sun.

What Is the Difference.
A Flood Of Cheap Substitutes are try.
ing to live upon the Reputation
made by the genuine
Johann H0ffs Malt Extract.

you are Olteil puLZlSu 10
know why he tries to sell
you some other make,which
he advises you to take, and
which he generally repre-
sents to be just as good and
much cheaper, etc. 1t may
be cheaper, but is it really
just as good? Does he
really mean what he says?
We venture to say that he
does not know the differ
ence, and judges only by the
appearance of the bottle,
which usually looks like the
genuine. 1t is a fact that
almost all those cheap sub
stitutes have adopted bot
ties of a shape similar to
those in which the genuine
Johann HoFF's MALT EXTRACT
is sold, but that is all they
have in common with each
other. What is the differ
ence? This is the question
which you want to have
answered, and answered
correctly.
All those cheap substi-
tutes are no more or less
than strong beers put up
by some brewery under the
misnomer of Malt Extracts.
They are dear because they
are not what they represent
to be. They are strongly
alcoholic, and contain only
a small percentage of actual
extractive matter malt.
The genuine JOHANN HoFF's
Malt EXTRACT IS just the re-
versa very minute per-
centage of alcohol, and
strong in extraCtive matter
malt.
The substitute malts are
dear at any price, because
YOU will never obtain the
needed results. One dozen
bottles ofthe genuine JOHANN
HoFF's MALT EXTRACT is equal
in nutritive and tonic pro-
perties to one cask of ale,
without being intoxicating.
The results obtained by
the use ofthe genuine JOHANN
HoFF's MALT EXTRACT justify
all we claim for it. Here is
what Prof. Prosper de Pietra
Santa, of Paris, says of it:
"As a large number of
patients lack the necessary
power to digest solid food,
and would through the use
of stimulants be merely ex-
cited and weakened, there
fore, | regard it of immense
value to the practitioner to
bring to his aid a nutritious
tonic and remedy like the
Johann HoFF's MALT EXTRACT,
which will act not only as
a tonic, but as a nutrient as
well, and which is less excl
ting than wine as a stimu-
liant"
Mrs. Pauline Weiss, the
wife of Mr.. Weiss. the we'll
known druggist at the cor
ner of Sixth Street and
Seventh Avenue, New York
writes to us as follows:
"On theadvice of my hus-
band, ! used the genuine
JOHANN HoFFs MALT EXTRACT
and find it the only Malt
Extract that gives me
strength. After being sick
for some time | tried the
various Extracts of Malt
made at the different brew
cries, and got no effect from
the same y s' u
For nearly fifty years the
genuine JOHANN HoFF's NAL
EXTRACT has been on the
market, and leads all other:

Emperors, and others have
