The kaiser delights in riding this

amused himself by watching his

enjoy the fun of watching the kaiser

Meals are taken together at one
long table and conversation is gay

and his loud laugh can be heard

A HOMFLY
PARABLE
BY Rev. Chas. A. Eaton, d. d,

BY Rev. Chas. A. Eaton, d. d,
Pastor of John D. Rockefeller's
Church at Cleveland, o.
The home of Bill Smith, who is a
friend of yours, is mortgaged, and
Bill is having a hard time to make
the payments. You have a few hun
dreds that are not working, and you
could pay the interest for Bill just
as well as not. But do you? Not
much. That wouldn't be business.
Instead, you go to the man who
holds the mortgage, and you say:
How much is that mortgage you've
got on Bill Smiths house," and he
says, Five thousand dollars" Then
you say, We'll, I'll give you $5000.10
for it."
You buy the mortgage and then you
go to Smith, and you say to him:
Bill, I'm terribly sorry for your wife
and family, but the fact of the mat
ter is, you'll have to get out"
BY and by you die and come face
to face with Almighty God, and to
Him you say: God, I've been mighty
orthodox all my life l had cushion
ed seat in church and used it twice
every Sunday. l gave $1,000 to the
church."
And God asks you: Where did
you get that S5000?"
You tell Him: why, I bought the
mortgage on Bill Smiths house and
foreclosed; sold the house for $4,000,
making a profit of $4,000. That's
where I got the money I gave to the
church."
Then God says to you: Get thee
hence for there was no love in your
heart, and I do not know you"
For, the great Christian virtues are
faith, hope and love, and the greatest
of these is love.

BERLIN, April 24-The German
emperor is now enjoying a Mediter-
ranean voyage on board his magnifi-
cent steam yacht Hohenzollen. in the
company of the empress and of his
favorite son, Prince Eitel Frederic.
who is rapidly recovering from his
recent Illness, Since the operation in
the kaiser's throat in 1908 this spring
voyage to the Mediterranean has be-
come an annual fixture in the imperial
program 1t is significant that, al
though officialdom declares the Ger
man emperor to be in robust health.
his medical advisers insist that he
shall spend three months in each
year at sea. The Mediterranean trip
in the spring lasts six weeks, and
the Scandinavian voyage which the
kaiser undertakes every summer is
equally long.
The kaiser at sea on board his own
yacht is a very different man from
the emperor who lives in state in
Berlin or Potsdam. At sea, the kaiser
is bluff, jovial mariner. From the
moment he embarks until the time
of his return ashore at the end of the
voyage he never wears anything but
nautical costume. often he dons a
pilots garb and takes the wheel
The kaiser's voyages do not serve
only for the purpose of recruiting his
health, but also to enable him to keep
in close touch with all grades of
public feeling. 1t is curious that the
kaiser is never in such close touch
with the German nation as when he
is sailing the seas many hundreds
of miles away.
When in residence in Berlin or
Potsdam. he is surrounded by
group of courtiers who separate him
from direct contact with the nation.
1t has frequently been proved that
these courtiers deliberately misrepre-
sent current events to the kaiser in
order to influence him in favor of
their own political opinions or on be-
half of their own individual schemes.
The kaiser, who can not see or read
everything himself has been unable
TO liberate himself from this court
bondage at home
At sea, however, the kaiser has
found a means of evading these tram
mels, On every voyage which he
makes he invites number of repre-
sentative men of all classes and pro-
fessions to accompany him, and dur
ing the voyage he takes every oppor-
tunity Of discussing public affairs
and questions of general public in
terest with his guests.
On successive voyages during the
last decade, the kaiser has been ac-
