Many comments were made because the German
Emperor kissed Prince Henry when the latter re-
turned from his recent visit TO this country. a
matter OF fact although Emperor William is the
greatest kisser OF men among the soveregns Of the
world he is also hearty handshaker and the
freest of all mOnarchs in this particular. Indeed
he and the King of Italy the only supreme

The Kaiser reserves his kisses for royalty ex-

visit from one he salutes him with SIX kisses
three on either cheek. This sometimes before a
crowd OF thousands OF onlookers. not to mention
