Prince Louis OF Bavaria. the eldest
son of the octogenariau regent. and.
therefore heir presumptiYe to the crazy
King Otto's throne. has ever since the
accession of the present German En-
peroT been noted for his publicly mani
tested iI-wiu toward the latter. There
have been sensational displays OF this
attitude on numerous occasions. notably
at the time of the coronation Of En-
peror Nicholas. Prince Louis was an
geCed by some utterance at a banquet
given by the German colony at MOSCOW
TO the visiting German royalties. He
mede a speech calling the attention Of
everyone present to the fact that reign
ing houses Of Bavaria and of other SOY
ereign states Of the German Empire were
noE the vassals but The allies of the
Kaiser.
Last fall when the Emperor visited
Nurnberg in connection with the Ger
man museum celebration there was
another public manifestation Of the III
will between him and Prince Louis.
This aroused no end Of comment al the
time.

FITTED TO BE ARCHITECTS.

Although girls are lacking i'll many

Chapman. writing in Success. says i'll
many ways they are eninently fitted
for the profession. The average girl
who desires to enter the profession
thinks only Of the artistic side of the
nothing of construction and has little
business ability Or physical strength.

and conscientious than men. Besides.
they know far better than any man
the needs OF Il home. For this reason,

should for the present be content with
this.

TRAINING THE CHILDREN.


Mothers should teach their children
to care for their hair as early as posi-
bic.
If the little girl is coaxed into the
habit of giving her locks a hundred
strokes with a stiff brush every morn
ing and evening and braiding them
loosely for bed the foundation for a
future beautiful head of hair will be
laid.
Counting the strokes will Tighten the
task for her, and she will soon become
accustomed to it and make it part Of
her daily toilet. Too many children are
allowed to go to bed with their hair i'll
a tousled condition, only to have it
jerked and tangled when school time
comes around.
Such a practice is disastrous to the
nerves of sensitive child and ruinous
to the hair. Teach the little daughter
to take care Of her hair at the right
time. and also to keep her brushes and
combs in the proper state Of cleanli-
ness.

HEALTH AND BEAUTY.

For soft gums, that bleed easily.

thoroughness. The upper teeth should
be brushed downward. the lower teeth
upward. both inside and out.
Charcoal, while capital cleanser Of

go between the teeth and the gums,
