The pale. wan face lit up with a
worthy ambition, and the little body,

spoke. 1t was plain to see how firmly
the idea of reaching the north pole has
taken possession of this youth.
Did you and your father arrange any
definite plans for reaching the north
pole?' he was asked.

sailing away, and pictures himself as
on one of them, some day, with her
prov pointed to the north.
There is something pathetic behind
all this, Yet pathos and romance have
governed the whole career of this lit
tie boy, who was not the child of the
man whom he knew as his father, ex-
cept by adoption. The baby was born
William Brandt, his father being a
half brother of Mr.. Ziegler. At an
early age it became necessary for rel
atives to assume the support of one
or more of the children, and Mr.. Zieg-
Ter took the little boy. He and his wife
were childless, and the little chap at
once filled the vacant crevices in their
hearts as fully as their own could have
done. He returned the affection and
between him and his foster father grew
love that was noticeable to the mer-
est stranger.
Shared Fathers Condolences.
They were inseparable, the million
aire and the schoolboy, and when, a
few years ago, William Ziegler began
to crave the distinction of being the
founder of an expedition that should
find the north pole, the lad was one of
the few who shared his condolences
who listened to his ambitions and SYM
pathized with him in his desires.
To reporter, who saw him at the
Ziegler home at Noroton Point one day
recently, the boy was as communica-
tive as could be expected of one weak,
ened by more than two months of suf-

and Strong after Years of Misery
Due to Irregular Functions.
The fact that one woman is bright
eyed, rosy-cheeked, strong and cheerful,
while another is pale, weak and de-
pressed, is due more often than other
wise to the regularity in the one case
and the irregularity in the other Of the
functions that are peculiar to the sex,
When these are disturbed everything
goes wrong; pain and discomfort are
felt all over the body; the sensations are
often terrifying.
"For four years" said Mrs. Davis re-

from sick headache every month, &C
oompanied by fainting spells, shortness

that he would not like to talk.

said. He was very fond of my hus-
band; in fact, the two were always
more like two chums than father and
son. During the early part of Willie's
illness, before Mr.. Ziegler suffered the
accident that resulted in his death,
Mr.. Ziegler spent great deal Of time
talking to him, their conversation hav-

determination; but the hope seemed to
vanish as quickly as it came, for Mrs.
Ziegler added:
mo, | don't believe he will change.
He is deep little fellow, and when he
once gets an idea he is steadfast in
carrying it out Especially true do |
think that will be in this case, for his
love of Mr.. Ziegler, if nothing else,
would be incentive enough to keep the
matter constantly in his mind. But
you may talk to him yourself for lit
tie while.
The room occupied by Willie Ziegler
faces Long Island sound. The house
is a long distance from the shore on
a high point of land which stretches
away to the beach. From the windows
a clear view of the water is given, and
on this stormy, dark day the sea was
forbidding and ugly. Yet the little boy
propped up on his bed near the win
dow, was looking out on the waves as
his visitor entered, and there was nc
sign that the bleakness of the sea haC
affected his youthful spirits in aay
way.

was of no consequence to him.

Definite Aim in Life.
That aim is the discovery of the
north pole, the quest that has cost so
many valuable lives from the time of
Sir John Franklin down to the days of
the Jeanette. The glory of the pur-
pose has been pictured to the boy; he
has thought and read and talked of it

to be absorbed by it. And now. lying

Mr.. 2iegler will share with the widow
the responsibility Of directing the boys
education. He will spend his summers
in Noroton, and in the winter will re-
side in the Ziegler mansion in Fifth
avenue. He will not be cooped up and
held aloof from other boys of his years,
but will be taught democracy as well
as business integrity and scientific
truth.
He is passionately devoted to Mrs.
Ziegler. His own mother died when he
was baby, and his foster mother has
filled her place with complete devo-
ton. His own father is simply "Uncle
George" to him.
Suffers Severe Accident.
Since April 1, when young Ziegler
suffered from distressing accident, he
has been laid up. A few weeks ago he
had only bare chance to survive an
operation performed by one of New
Yorks best known surgeons. To-day
the boy, always vigorous and strong

who started pillow fight on April
in his fathers home which since has
taken him to the operating table or
three different occasions.
On March 81 Ziegler came home with
two schoolmates in the Browning
school, The boys anticipated the com
ing of All Fools day. Several jokes
had been planned for the benefit o.
Mr. Zieglers valet. The valet SLEEP
in the room with the boys, on CO..
between the brass beds. The day haC
hardly begun when Ziegler awoke hi
companions. The valet was asleep
but he awoke quickly, victim of thu
youthful jokers.

New York.-Through the will of his
uncle l4-year-old boy has come into
a fortune of $30,000,0OO. The uncle is
William Ziegler, the millionaire manu-
facturer of Noroton, Conn, baking
powder king and protector of arctic
expeditions, who died short time
ago; the fortunate youth is William
.Ziegler, Jr, his adopted son.
Although but child in years, young
'Ziegler has been unspoiled by the sud
den inheritance of the fabulous wealth.
By tin time he becomes of age the es-
tate will have grown to more than $40,-
100000. His income now is $1,000, 900
"a year. He is the richest boy of his
years in the world and he will be
among the worlds richest men.
The boy has been brought up to I'M
derstand that he is the son of the man
who fitted out polar expeditions. His
books are volumes dealing with adj
venture in the far north seas. He has
been made to understand that it was
always his fathers wish to have one of
his expeditions locate the north pole

To some 14-year-old boys a fortune
of $3O,0O0,OOO would be terrible hand.
leap. To young Ziegler the money
promises to be anything but draw
back; for the boy, few in years though
he is, seems thoroughly to appreciate
his unique position, to understand the
responsibilities connected with the
possession of so much wealth and
what is infinitely better, to have
formed definite object in life, towart
the gaining of which he proposes t.
devote the millions left to him.
He is manly little fellow, ambition!
to achieve heroic adventures. This i!
an ambition which the cherished
dream of his foster father makes i
possible for him to realize. He begins
life now with millions and mission
for he is the boy who must discove
the north pole.

mo, not much, You see, it costs a
good deal to fit out an expedition, and
people don't seem to be very anxious to

they had been carried out, might have

What do you think of Mr.. Fialas
expedition? he was asked.
Anthony Fiala, young Brooklyn
newspaper man, and great friend OF
the late Mr.. Ziegler, went out at the
head of the second Arctic expedit. IN
projected by the millionaire two years
ago, after the first, under Capt. Bald
win, failed of its purpose. The expedi-
, tion has not been heard from for some
time, and fears are entertained that il
has ended in disaster. Mr. w. S
Champ, confidential secretary to The
late Mr.. Ziegler, is now at Tromsoe

Ter, and even now regards the search
for the pole as his life work.
Thought Father His Uncle.
His father, George Brandt, whom he
has been taught all his life to believe
was his uncle, resides in Chicago.
Brandt is half-brother to the elder
Ziegler. When the boy was baby
his father gave him up to the million
aire, then childless. The baby was le-
gally adopted, was called William Zieg-
Ter and did not know until the death of
his foster father that he was other
than William Ziegler's son.
The greatest care was taken with his
preliminary education, designed to fit
him for Columbia university. He will
be given careful business as well as
a scientific education, so that he may
not only prosecute the biographical re-
searches instituted by the elder Will
liam Ziegler, but ma2 also be fitted tC
