Emperor Williams father died of cancer
of the throat.
Emperor William himself had infantile
paralysis, and has had TO struggle with
many infrmities.
1t has been whispered that he himself
is troubled with the same malady which
carried off his father. Royal blood is un-
fortunately most generally deteriorated
well as anybody, and is doing his best TO
eradicate the bad blood from himself and
his family by the adoption of simple life
principles.
Through the visit of a countrynan of
his to Battle Creek, Michigan, while in
this country, visiting the Worlds Fair in
Chicago IN 1893, Emperor William became
acquainted with the Battle Creek idea of
simple living and has to large extent
adopted the methods in his family. His
wife and children live the simple life and
take Battle Creek light baths. Their
uncle, King Edward, also mas these baths
instr lied in his Windsor and Buckingham
Palaces for the use of himself and Queen
Alexandra.

eoYIsH MIND WAS WORKING.
on His First Sail Over the
Raging Main"

None of us ever quite forget those
days-when our years were few-of
dreaming about life on the raging
main, when the imagination reveled
in pirates and plumber from state
ly galleons and valorous deeds done
on storm-swept decks, says writer
in the New York Times. Recollection
of this period is, at any rate, sufii-
GENTLY vivid, so that the remark OF
a small boy could contribute maSa-
rally to the "gayety of nations,
among the passengers on one of the
excursion steamers running from
Manhattan across the harbor to
Coney Island.
The steamer made her way across
the bay, lodging tugs and ferryboats
fortunately meeting no pirate craft.
The passengers, escaping gladly from
the city's heat, nibbled their sand
wiches and enjoyed the breeze. The
walters moved about the deck with
their trays. The boy, just from the
inland town. where his life so far
had been spent, sat rapt and wide
eyed. If one could but know fully
the mental content" from which
sprang his words at last!
Ma he cried, hoarsely, tell me
which one of 'em is the skipper!"

Suffered for "White lie"

Is q white lie ever justified? That
at least some people believe it has
no excuse is proved by the following
tale: An ancient rabbi came to city
where all the people were truthful,
married one of the inhabitants, had
two children and prospered. One day
a neighbor called when the rabbits
rabbi. going to the door. was seized
by false modesty and said that she
had gone out. Thereupo7 both of his
children died, and, as no one died in
that city before reaching old age, the
ncighbors made inquiries, the rabbi
confessed what he had done, and was
ordered to leave the city Immediately.

GOOD coLoRs FOR HOUSES.

1t is not generally known-not even
among painters-why certain tints
and colors wear much better than
others on houses, and the knowledge
OF just what tints are best to use is,
therefore. rather hazy.
One writer on paint, in a recent
book. says that experiments seem to
show that those colors which resist
or turn back the heat rays of the sun,
will protect house better than those
which allow these rays to pass
through the film.
Thus red is good color because it
turns back. or reflects. the red rays,
and the red rays are the hot rays
In general. therefore, the warm
tones are good and the cold tones are
POOR so far as wear is concerned. In
choosing the color OF paint for your
house, select reds, browns, grays
and olives which, considering the va
rious tones these tints will produce,
will give a wide range from which to
choose.
Avoid the harsh tints, such as cold
yellows like lemon, cold green's
(like grass green, etc. 4, and the blues.
1t must be understood that no vir-
tue is claimed for tints in themselves,
irrespective of the materials used in
the paint. Any color will fade, and
the paint will scale off, If adulterated
white lead or canned paint is used,
but IL one Is careful to use the best
white lead-some well-known brand
OF reliable manufacturer-and gen.
u!ne linseed oil, the warm tints men,
toned above will outwear the same
materials tinted with the cold colors.

SGlLOW FACES
often Caused by Coffee Drinking.

How many persons realize that cof-
fee so disturbs digestion that it pro-
1uces a muddy, yellow complexion?
A ten days trial of Postum Food
Coffee has proven a means, in thou
sands of cases, Of clearing up bad
compilations.
A Washn. young lady tells her expe-
rience:
"All of us-father, mother, sister
and brother-had used tea and coffee
for many years until finally we all
had stomach troubles more or less.
I'VE were all sallow and troubled
with pimples, breath bad, disagree
able taste in the mouth, and all of us
simply so many bundles of nerves.
I'VE didn't realize that coffee was
the cause of the trouble until one day
we ran out Of coffee and went to Dor
row some from a neighbor. She gave
us some Postum and told us to try
that.
although we started to make It,
we all felt sure we would be sick IL
we missed our strong coffee, but We
were loICeu W NY Iostuh anu "eiS
surprised to find II delicious.
I'VE read the statements on the
pkg, got more and in a month and a
half you wouldn't have known us.
We we're all able to digest our food
without any trouble, each ones skin
became clear, tongues cleaned off and
nerves in fine condition. We never
use anything now but Postum. There
is nothing like It," Name given by

FEELING IS BITTER
UPRISING OF GREAT PROPORTIONS
 EXPECTED IN CHINA.
Eye-witnerses sf the Recent Riots ir Shanghai Tells of the Intense Anff-Foreign Sentiment
 Which Prevails.

San Francisco, Cal. Feb 15.--c. E. Young. an eye-wItness of the recent riot in Shanghai. arrived here yester- day from the orient on the steamer Doric. He tells of the intense anti foreign sentiment that exists among the Chinese and predicts that an upris- ing wifi take place within the mex. Jew months.
 Young says that two hundred Chi nese were killed in the riot in Shang- haf and that only the presence of the foreign gunboats at Shanghai prevent ed the wholesale slaughter of Ameri- cans and Engiishmen. Young repre- sents a local firm. but because or the boycott he was unable to transact any business with the Chinese merchants Young said:
 "Thc riot in shanghai had its incep- ton because of the action of the BTU ish consular court I was in Shangnai an December IS. the day of the out break, and remained there Tor the tew days following. when all toreigners were compelled to carry rines 10 Pro- tect themselves from harm.
 .t, seems that a Chinese woman. ac- cused of traficking in slave. girls. was hauled before the consular court she was found guilty and sent to lail. Inc Chinese protested and immediately riot was started.
 "The rioters ran from street to street searching for fcreigners. hevolFers and rides were used by the Anlerlsahs and the Chinese answered with volleys of stones. Many were hurt by the flying missiles. but I heard Of no la- talities among the Americans or Eng- lIah One English woman was at tackled and dragged by the hair, She was rescued by party or her country men.

 .'That there will be trouble in Chih' | is almost certain. All the Chinese want now is a leader.
