crooked little fingers denote degener-
acy. Strong, knotty fingers denote
practical and philosophic mind.
Slender, tapering, small-jointed fingers
denote a highly sensitive and artistic
temperament, a love of all things
beautiful and noble nature. Such
fingers belong to the artist and the
poet. Long, well developed fingers,
straight and muscular, denote love of
detail and order in all things and
great executive ability.
Long, tapering nails denote grace of

The Kaiser is not a dandy, and
spends comparatively small
amount on his clothes. The horses
he rides are not OF a particularly
good breed. and not unusually expen-
sive. He is not a gambler, and does
not indulge in other designations
which would be excusable in his po-
stion.
Imperial Splendor.
He is, however. extrayagant in one
respect, namely in keeping up the
imperial magnificence of his Court on
scale never previously attempted by
a King of Prussia. The support OF re-
latives forms a first charge on the
Kaisers income. He has to provide
an annual allowance for his six sons.
and has to maintain separate Court
for several distant relatives.
The Crown Prince, now he is mar
ried. will be surrounded by his own
Court, comprising marshal. mas
ter of ceremonies, master of horse,
a master of the hunt, lords in wait
ing. gentlemen in waiting, aides-de
camp. and so forth. The mainten-

The German Emperor, with an an
nual income of about four millions
dollars is poor man. and has great
difficulty in making both ends meet,
declares the London Express. He does
not receive farthing in his capacity
as German Emperor, but fulfls the
duties Of this honorary position free
OF charges to the federation of Ger
man states. The Kaiser draws his in
come. first. as the King of Prussia;
and. second. as private landowner.
His income as King of Prussia
amounts approximately to $4.O00.000,
per annunl. The Emperor of Russia
receives an annual allowance of ap.
proximately 100000. and the Emper-
or of Austria an annual allowance OF
more than $4,000 900. Both these mon
archs receive additional allowance for
certain definite purposes. and both OF
them own vast landed estates far SUI
perior in acreage to the German EN-
peror's possessions.
The Sultan Of Turkey receives an
annual allowance of of $4,000, 900,
and the King of Italy draws over So
100000 per annum: while the in.
comes of several monarchs of smaller
states are nearly as large as that of
the King of Prussia.
The amount of $4,0O0,00O granted
annually to the German Emperor in
his capacity as King of Prussia is
not taken from the national ex-
chequer. but from revenues from
state dominions which were formerly
the private property of the Prussian
royal house. The Crown lands were
handed over to the state. and in re-
turn the state pays fixed annual
income to the monarch.
A Large Landowner.
The Kaiser owns eighty-three land.
ed estates. comprising total of
100000 acres. He is the greatest
landowner in Germany. and his pos
sessions far exceed those of the three
landowners whose estate rank next to
his own in acreage. These are the
Prince of Pless. who owns 125 1000
acres; the Duke of Ujest. who owns
100, 900 acres; and the Duke of Ratf-
Dor, who owns $4,000 acres. Some OF
the land of the Kaiser's estate is
rented to farmers; but the Emperor
carries on bushes on his own ac-
count in several parts OF the country.
The Kaiser's workmen are paid
abnormally high wages, and all his
employees receive liberal pensions in
their old age, or in case Of sickness.
He also provides literally for the
widows and children out of his pri-
vate purse. All these payments con-
sumo large proportion Of the profits,
SO that the ,Emperor's income from his
estates is comparatively small.
Practically speaking, the, German
Emperor is thus obliged to live on his
royal income of $4,0OO.0OO per an
mum, which is altogether insufficient
for his requirements. The Kaiser has
