There are many good anecdotes
about the German Emperor, and it
must be owned that they all prove the
Kaiser to have no small amount of
humor. The following, which comes
from Herr Ehlers. the traveller. is
smarter than most. The Emperor and
Eh!ers were college chums from Bonn,
and the Emperor never forgot his old
college student. AT Bonn, on special
occasions, the different corps used to
drink to one another. and the follow.
Ing set form was always used: The
president of the Palatio Corps raises
his glass, saying: II have the great
honor and pleasure to empty my glass
IN drinking to the Corps of Borussia."
The president of the latter corps then
replies: The corps thanks and
drinks" On the birth of one OF the
sons OF the Emperor, Ehlers telegraph
Ell him: II have the great honor and
pleasure to empty my glass in drinking
to the youngest Hohenzollern" The
Emperor promptly wired back: "'rhe
youngest Hohehzollern thanks and
drinks"

Occult Symbols Devised to Deceive
Womn n kind.
People often ask me the meaning of
the apparently crazy hieroglyphs and
figures that are stamped on the inner
side of the uppers CT ready-made shoes
nowadays" said shoe dealer. LAS
every shoe mandatory has a secret
stamp code of its own, and there is
therefore, no possibility of the general
public learning more than that such
codes exist, may as we'll tell you that
the vanity of modern mortals, and es-
peclally women, is at the bottom of
these peculiar stamped characters and
figures. You'd be surprised to know,
for instance, how many women there
are who imagine that they wear a No.
shoe, when in reality their size is
couple OF figures larger. A shoe sales
man who understands his business can
tell precisely the number of the shoe
woman customer wears at a glance.
but as often as not il woman whose
foot is No. calls for a shoe a couple
OF sizes smaller, and the mysterious
stamped-hieroglyph scheme was de-
her in the belief that her foot is a
couple Of sizes smaller than it really
measures in shoe leather.
When 2 woman calls for number 3
to fit number 5 foot. no shoe sales
man Of this era who cares anything
10: his job is going to say. Madam,
your loot requires a number s.. He
simply breaks out shoe of the style
she request that he feels confident will
tit her comfortably, and lets it so at
that.
"A woman rarely thinks to INQUIRE
II the shoe is really of the size she
asked for, for she takes it for granted
that the salesman has given her what
she demanded. But when a woman
does ask, for instance, This is a num-
Der 3, is it?' it's the salesman's bust
ness to unblushingly reply, Yes m. its
number g.. The woman customer
might examine the hieroglyphs inside

out any different, and even if she had
the key to the puzzle it would only
make her feel bad, SO what would he
