Devoted to the Poor.
The sixueth anniversary Of a very
notable man was recently celebrated in
Germany II Is that of Duke Charles
Theodore OF Bavaria, who has acquired
high distinction by his work as a phil
anthrcpist and by his skill as a sur
geon. For many years he has been
treating persons afflicted with diseas-
es OF the eyes, and he has up to date
performed operations on $1,000 persons
suffering from cataracts. The removal
81 cataracts Is indeed the work to
which he now devotes almost his entire
time.
At first he declined TO accept any fees
from patients Physicians throughout
the country, however. seeing that he
had practically a monopoly as regards
the removal Of cataracts, addressed a
petition to him some time ago In which
they requested him TO charge the Gus
toniary fec. on the ground that 9TH
er,rise he would be doing an uinten-
uonal injustice TO other physicians, and
the Duke at once promised 70 comply
with their request
lie planned therefore, TO charge his
wealthy patients, a good round sum
and Ia spend the money, when II
reached him. in establishing three hos
pitfalls. where the poor afflicted with eye
diseases could be treated-one in Mu-
mich. another in Meran and third in
Tegernsee. AS the money, however, did
not come in as quickly as he expected,
he began to build the hospitals at his
own expense, and the cost Of their
maintenance to-day comes almost
wholly out OF his own pocket. This
/ amounts 10 about 500 900 year. OF his
many wealthy patients few pay him for
his services, and they know well that
he win never press for payment
/ such ingrautude would deter many
men from continuing in their philan-
thropic work but the Duke is not la
boring in order TO earn gratitude or
money. As matter OF fact, he and his
( family. i'm order 10 maintain the hospi-
tails. have been obliged TO reduce their
living expenses almost TO a minimum
| like most Germans, the Duke loves q
| good horse. but to-day almost all the
| STALLS in his stable are empty. His wife
who was the Princess De Braganza
ard his children have also given ul
/ many luxuries in order TO be able 4
continue the good work.
The .Tegernsee Hospital occupies an
entire wing Of the castle in which tn
Duke and his family reside. Poor pa
tients on their arrival receive at ono
a hearty meal and q bath. Then tn

True Economy

The difference of cost between
good and a poor baking powder
would not amount for a family's
supply to one dollar a year.
The poor powder would cost
many times this in doctors bills.
Royal Baking Powder may cost little
more per can, but it insures perfect,
wholesome food. In fact, it is more
economical in the end, because it goes
further in leavening and never spoils
the food.
Royal Baking Powder used always
in making the biscuit and cake saves
both health and money.

under the Biggarsberg, but no important
fighting has taken place. The Free Stat
ers continue to enter our lines, surrender
ing under the proclamation issued by
Lord Roberts. They declare that the
Transvaalers are determined to fight to
the bitter end.
The majority of those who have hith-
erto taken part in the fighting have been
Free Staters. The Transvaalers have been
held in reserve. The Beers are preparing
for another campaign and will occupy
strongly fortified position in the Trans
vaal, necessitating heavy fighting before
they can be driven out. The Beers are not
expected to make stand at johannes

The opposition having failed in frontal
tack tried a flanking movement on Fri
day and again came to grief. They
brought forward two interpretations which
were pistols levelled at the head of M.
Millerand, and both missed fire. The inter-
pellations would have involved the resig-
nation of NJ. Millerand and cabinet
crisis, which the opposition hoped would
lead to the defeat of the ministry, to over
