There is so much in being cheer
full. Instead Of thinking about how
you might hurt your enemies, try
thinking about how you might
help your friends; it will make
you so much happier. Our remedy
for a happy disposition is this:
Smile; have a good laugh; if you
happen to know ONE evil about
somebody else, just whistle, don't
talk; if someone wants to tell
you something mean about your
self or your neighbor, sing. This
followed every day will make a
much brighter and happier world.

"KAISER WILLIAM AND HIS PALACE,
GAS Seen By Reuben.)

Royalty il Germany is now
cheap. 1t costs nothing to e the
Emperor, and only fifteen cents to
60 through his palace.
Emperor William can be seen
daily on the Inter den Linden or
in the Theirgarten, unless his
Royal Highness is out of town,
in which ease some of his children
are generally exhibited. Royalty
is nothing if not on parade. The
Emperor knows human nature
and plays on it to perfection.
Every day and sometimes twice
per day Emperor William launches
forth from his castle, robed in
buckles and buttons, and all en-
signs of royalty, and, like light
ing, flashes through the streets of
the city to get a little air, and in
cidentally to let the people see
him. At first | wondered why he
drove so fast, but now | am con-
WINGED that it is not because he is
scared, but that it is a part OF the
game of royalty to pose, exhibit
and parade so swiftly that the
people will not have time to think.
Sometimes the Emperor rides
horseback and is accompanied by
eight or ten of his officers. There
is a sort of signal service on one
corner of his castle which indicates
when the Emperor is out of his
palace and to be seen ON the streets.
1t is interesting to see the people
of such times, forming in line on
both sides of the street in order to
get a glimps of the Kaiser. l have
gotten so that | like to look at him
myself and if | were not an Ameri-
can l believe / would wish that i
had been born a King.
The Emperor always has pretty
horses, and on the seat with the
driver is one of his officers with a
ROSTERS tail in his cap. AS he
sails by the people lift their hats
and the Emperor bows his head
and points to his silver-plated hat.
l have seen his Highness several
times but have never worked up

I had v indigestion and a
general arrangement of the entire sys-
tenn. It had been a continual torture
for twelve years. My blood became
very poor and at times my toe and
finger nails would be diseased. After
eating I would sit in a chair and put
my feet on something to keep them
from swelling. and al times would take
off my shoes for the misery I had.
Whenever I experience anything to
remind me Of past aches I cannot be
too elated to tell what Ripans Tabules
have done for me. I still take one now
and then, because I know how bad I
have been. They were just what I
needed.

A banker sauntering home for
dinner saw a $40 bill lying on the
curbstone. Of course he picked it
up and took the number of it, in
order to find the owner. While at
home his wife remarked that the
butcher sent in his bill amounting
to $40. The only money he had
with him was the money he had
found, which he gave to her and
she paid the butcher. The butcher
paid it for a calf. The farmer
paid it to a merchant, who in turn
paid it to his clerk, and the clerk,
owing the banker a note of $40
went to the banker and paid off the
note. The banker recognized the
bill as the one he had found and
which, up to that time, had settled
$50 in debts. On careful examin-
alton he found the bill was coun.
terfeit. Now will some Of our fin.

lost by the transaction, if any,

him but once, and that was to ex.
pertinent on him. One day l was
walking in the Theirgarten alone
and l saw the Emperor and his
wife coming. AS no other people
we're in sight l got a good posi-
ton and caught hold of my hat
and raised it with a smile as he
passed. l was surprised to see
the Emperor and Empress both
bow in recognition to the salute
of a private foreigner.
| felt stuck up and could have
maintained this feeling the rest of
the day but like Lots wife, l stop.
ped to,look back and saw a man who
was raking the dirt off the street,
step aside and raise his hat to the
Kaiser and get a bow just like
mine. Since then / have learned
that the Kaiser will speak to any
body who will speak to him. He
is a nice man and far from going
crazy as some of the American
papers say he is.
Germany has a constitution but
the Emperor is constitution enough
himself for most of the Germans
to be willing to trust him to run
the whole government. In spite
of his bad speeches the people
like him and have confidence in
his ability. Until Germany has
sense enough to set up a republic
Kaiser William had just as well
run the government as anybody
else. 1t costs lots of money to
keep him up but it costs lots of
money to keep other rulers up
too, some of whom are not kings.
AS the Emperor's palace was
said to be pretty and famous, ]
bought two tickets and went to see
it. The royal palace as it now
stands is a big, massive rectangu'
lar building, enclosing two large
courts four stories high and with
a tall tower on top. The Original
building was a castle erected by
Elector Frederick l., before Col
umbus'discovered America. Since
then different princes and kings OF
the Hohenzollern line have added
to it as fast as the money could b.
squeezed out of the people will
which to build it. 1t has beer
adorned and embellished, insid'
and out, with the precious ONT
ment of the poor mans brow, an(
is now we'll worth the money i
costs to see it. In fact it is to,
ine-there is more room than i
needed, and every room bears tn
marksof teo much taxation. Their
are seven hundred rooms in thi
palace, more than any family coul'
hope to fill. 1t took us two hour
to visit it, and we did not go through
a hundred rooms.
The Emperor could not evel
look into these seven-hundre'
rooms in one day much less to ca
or sleep in them. For whom the
are these rooms fixed up so fine
Anybody but the people who pai'
for them. In other words ever,
door has a sign over it for taxpay
ers to keep out.
AS we approach this might
dwelling place of the Emperor
Royal Highness, we first behol
on the balustrade four statues of
the old Emperor William l., En-
press Augusta, Emperor FredericI
and the Empress Victoria as Jupi
ter, Juno, Mars and Minerva. !
Jupiter, Juno, Mars and compan,
were real gods they would tax
this as a good joke. First we wer
led up stairs by a winding walk
In former times the horses an
carriages were driven up on thi
winding place to the inside door
of the palace. Exertion and dir
were too ordinary in those time
