kaISER'S CHRISTMAS GIFT.
An Apartment FITTED With Old Schleswig'
UoIstcin Furniture for Hts VIC.

The Empress Of Germany has never for
gotten that she was a Princess Of Schleswlg-
Holstein, and her loyalty to her own prov
ince il well understood at the German
court. II was in recognition Of this sentl-
ment that the Kaiser conceived an idea
which proves that in the domestic capacity
Of husband he has his moments of inspira-
ton.
He determined to fit an apartment In the
palace entirely with old Schleswig-Holstein
furniture and give it 10 his wife for n Christ
mas present.
Now, the undertaking was a difficult one,
even with royalty bach of it. There was
a time when fine old pieces Of furniture
ornamented even the peasants homes
of Schleswig- Holstein; but there as else
where the collector and the antiquity dealer
have left a trail Of desolation. The simple
country folk parted with their heirlooms,
of which they did not appreciate the beauty
and value, and bought modern furniture
probably bearing the Grand Rapids stamp.
The kaiscr's agents secured the country
and spent untold time and money in getting
together what he wanted. The old fash
toned blue porcelain stove proved par
ticularly elusive, but was finally run to
earth.
The Schleswig-H olstein pipe rack could
not be found at all. II was said that only
one specimen Of this historic article was
in existence. The Burgomaster Of Edendor
owned that.
He was "A collector first, a loyal subject
afterward. Not for money nor royal
favor would he sell his pipe rack.
The Kaiser had found his match and had
to content himself with a copy Of the antique.
Only because of his loyalty did the Burgo-
master give consent that the copy might bo
made, and the proceeding wrung his anti
quarian soul.
So there is one modern specimen In the
wonderfully complete and beautiful col
lection Of antiques, but the Empress over
looked that flaw and VOWS that the bit
of Schlesv -Holstcin in her palace il the
best present she has ever received.

perhaps let her alone.
THE same thing is true In n lesser degree

If her mistress happens to be a bad

them. The proposition isn't practical.
THE French make good maids because
Of their taste In matters OF dress and toilet.
They have n natural talent Tor dressmaklhS
and costume details.
still, ia this country, a good German
maid is more in demand than a French mad
/ suppose because so many OF our wealthy
people are Of German extraction
"A good German maid Is a treasure
She hasn't, ave in exceptional cases the
French girls genius for dressmaktIg, but
she does beautiful sewing and is faithful,
good tempered, devoted. She has usualiy
been well trained, if she has been n lady,s
maid in the old country, and she usually
speaks French as well as German.
THE Swedes are excellent Lac ies' maids
too. There is an increasing call for them
because they have a talent for massage
as the French nave for dress, and massage
is becoming more popular every day.
The demand for laoies' maids OF any
nationality is increasing, too. Americans
are acquiring wealth rapidly and learning
how to spend it, but give a European
woman and an American woman the same
income, and the European woman Will have
a lady's maid while the American VIII not
THE maid is a tradition ovcr there
We are just getting around to her over here.
That is the great majority OF oil women
who could afford maids are just beginning
TO indulge in the luxury.
1T is a luxury. A good lady's maid can
do more for a woman's comfort than any
thing else she can buy with m~oney-but
a French German, Swede, English maid;

Cucumbers sliced are served with this
dish. Heavy vegetables never have a place
in a Lenten luncheon; they belong prop

green or a fruit salad Is always a necessity,
the green salads being preferable. Sweets
must be abundant and daintily colored.
Cakes and ices are the best and coffee is
served with them.
OF course there must be innumerable
side dishes Of small sandwiches made from
nuts, shrimp oil anchovy paste or caviar.
Olives stuffed with anchovies are appreciate
by most people and there are many dainty
sweet picked fruits that make admirable
bits Of color and add to the delicate novelty

tering spread Of endless gifts which have Of
late been showered on newly-married
