Sir. Arthur Conan. Doyle practiced
medicine before he began to write,
and in one of his scrapbooks he. has
a newspaper advertisement that he
cherishes because it shows well the
low standing of many doctors in the
eighteenth century. Sir Arthur
clipped the advertisement from q
newspaper of the year 1887. It
reads: - =: 81 81.

Far and away The three most popu-
lar members Of the royal family to-.
day are the king and queen and little
Prince Edward, eldest son of the.
prince Of Wales. That the king and
queen would be popular every one ex.
.pected; they always were as prince and
princess of Wales. But the present
prince and princess are about the least
popular members Of the house Of
Hanover. Prince George, the sailor
prince, IS was once almost idolized BY
the crowd, says the New York Times
but that was when he was a. sailor
Since he gave up the. sea he has drifted
back in public regard. It is some years
ago that, after a, prolonged period OF
inactivity, he suddenly took it into his
head to command battleship and
started on a cruise. The British press
wept tears of joy and he was the here
of the hour. But after few weeks
"the ship came back and the royal
commander has given himself leave OF
absence on shore ever since. u
When he was younger he took his
profes sion very seriously and never
shirked the @disagreeables connected
with it. There is perfectly true story
of his ship, when he was lieutenant.
touching at Turkish port: The loca.
governor at once came to pay his re.
spects to the royal prince. The ship
was coaling, operations being com.
manded by the officer Of the watch
black as negro from coal dust and
perspiring freely. The admiral re.
ceived the pasta, who explained that
he came to pay his respects to the
queens grandson. ~.
Hes ON duty just now" explained
the sailor; "there he u.s." pointing tc
the hot and dirty officer. No wonder
the public liked a man who did his
days work and never flinched nor shell.
tered himself from irksome tasks be.
hind his title. "
The trouble with the prince to-day
seems to be that bis health is indiffer.
ent. Whether his severe attack OF
fever just after his elder, brothers
death has weakened him, or whether,
as some say, it is matter of weak
digestion, one cannot tell, but he is not
strong and has to take great care of
himself. At Buckingham palace they
keep late hours; the king seldom re-
tires before midnight. At Marlborough
house the prince goes to- bed much
efrlier and never sits up late. He
hates horse racing and never goes to
Newmarket or other races if he can
possibly avoid it. The present kings
death will be a great blow to the
popularity Of racing. 5..
All members of the royal family
avoid witnessing cricket or football
matches, but the prince seems to dis
like agricultural shows as well. His
chief hobby is fishing and this gives
a hint to his character, for a fisher
man is, as a rule, quiet, reserved and
fond of solitude. The long and short
of it is there will be slump in loyalty
when George v. comes to the throne,
unless he comes out of his shelf and
initiates his royal fathers geniality.

OF RUSSIAN LIFE.
Present Strenuous Conditions Of the
Cars Domain Are Due to
Ancient Causes.

From the earliest times until within
the last century and half Russia was
almost continually subject to foreign
invasion, according to the Chautau-
guam. Wave after wave of barbarians
from the great northern plains of Asia
dashed against the Muscovite state
and several times completely over
whelmed it. There were no means,of
protection-no lofty mountains, no in
accessible Businesses, no streams diff
cult of passage. There was not even
stone or other material to construct
walls or castles for defense. -
The inevitable tendency under such
circumstances was for the power Of
the Muscovite princes over their sub
jects to be greatly augmented The
people looked to the princes for pro-
lection, in return for which they I'M
dertook to serve in the army, pay large
taxes and in other ways strengthen the
princes position. It so happened that
in this business Of defending the peo-
pie against the depredations of the
marauders the princes of Moscow were
more successful than any others.
]. And it was for this reason chiefly
that the princes of Moscow a ttained a
prestige surprising that of all the 9TH
ers and eventually became the head
of the. Russian state. In the great
struggle to throw off the Mongol yoke
In the fifteenth century the people
we're quite willing to commit the most
absolute power into the hands Of the
grand prince Of Moscow, for they knew
that every resource and prerogative
at his command would be needed for
the achievement of the task. What
ever would strength the princes po-
sition was considered desirable, what
ever would weaken it deleterious.
Thus the Russians, who in very early
times had republican government in
their petty city sstates, accustomed
themselves for the sake Of their ma
sisional deliverance to autocracy.

VIII Helm The State.


Federal authorities will cooperate
with the Minnesota dairy and food
commission in preventing the practice
Of misbranding Minnesota butter and
cheese. The attention Of the secretary
OF agriculture has been called to this,
and he has informed Commissioner
Mcconnell that any such cases will be
prosecuted by the department of just
ice under the law of 1902, which inn
poses fine Of $500 to $4,000 for intro
ducing in any state or territory dairy,
or food products falsely labeled as to
state or territory in which they are
produced. { r ~
Minnesota cheese is fully equal in
quality to the best OF New York or
Wisconsin, but is not so well known,
and the product of Minnesota factories
is often displayed for sale with the
New York or Wisconsin label. The
law furnishes protection against such
. deceit, which works injury to the
Minnesota dairymen.
