wins for him fame, in spite Of his hav-
ing been born on the steps of a
throne; something intrinsically worthy
of such lasting FenOwn as to reIegate
to an altogether secondary place his
status in the social system.
Prince Louis can boast of having
achieved this. As long as America en-
dures he will remain on record as haV-
ing been the first man TO scale Mount
st. Elias, while he can in the same
way boast Of having been the first hui
man being to make the ascent in Cen
tral Africa of the Ioftiest peaks of
snOw-capped Mount Ruwenzori, until
then regarded as altogether inaccessi-
BILE; and until Commander Peary's
last dash for the pole the duke of the
AbruZZi held in the entire history of
arctic exploration the record of far
thest north. As King Edward re-
marked at the meeting of the Royal
Geographical society in London last
winter on the occasion of the descrip-
ton of the ascent of Mount Ruwen-
zOri, given by the duke, the latter still
young, being but "a years of age, and
his past successes, unique in history
of modern royalty, give splendid prom
ise Of still further brilliant achieve
ments.
Like most men really entitled to
fame Prince Louis is extremely mod
est, and quite ayerse to figuring in the
role of a hero. In the clever book
which he has written on his polar ex-
periences, and also in the descriptions
which he has given Of his ascents of
Mount St. Elias and Mount Ruwen-
zori, the keynote has been the anxiety
to give all possible credit to his fol-
lowers. and to efface himself
1t is this modesty, thoroughly in
keeping with the chivalrous character.
that has led the prince to remain
much in the background during the
recent visit of General Baron Kuroki.
The strain Of old-time chivaIry in
the character of Prince Louis, and
which has figured largely as an incen-
tive to his deeds of daring. may be
said to have been inherited from his
father, the late duke of AOsta, who re-
called so much to mind the knight of
: the middle ages that he seemed some
how or another out of place in the lat
ter half of the nineteenth century.
The lOftiness of his principles and
| of his sense Of honor. were scarcely
in keeping with the age in which he
lived, and were hardly of a nature
to fit him for the duties of modern
| government. Elected to the throne Of
Spain, which he only accepted with
the utmost reluctance and from
sense of duty, he cOntemptuously
| abandoned it after reign of three
years rather than submit to political
| compromises rendered necessary by
the situation, but TO which he could
not bend his conscience.

In these modern times the sphere
Of activity of the princes of the reign
ing houses Of the old world is of an
exceedingly restricted character. For
the most part they are debarred from
emulating the prOvesses OF their an
cestors on the field of battle, while in
these days of constitutional monarchy
they are precIuded not only from play

manifesting any political sympathies.
Their efforts to make q name for
themselves in the realms of science,
of art and of literature are always
handicapped by the difficulty of Sc
curing honest Judgment, according to
ordinary standards, and by the Conse-

Dogs. especially settlers, pointers

fierce and unruly ones. need to be
kept chained most of the time. the

straying away, generally at night. and
others from annoying or endangering
the safety of people coming on the
premises. To keep dogs on a chain
constantly, preventing them from get.
ting mucb-needed exercise, Is cruel
and prejudicial TO their health, and Il
also serves to make a cross dog so
much more mruly and dangerous as
frequently to necessitate having him
killed. There Is practical and easily
constructed method Of overcoming the
difficulty and still restraining the dog
of his liberty.
stout post is securely planted
alongside OF the doghouse, having
about is inches of It above ground
Another post is then securely planted
about 100 feet distant and a stout tele.
graph wire stretched taut between the
two posts and securely fastened. The
chain is attached to the wire with a
sliding ring and the other end to the
collar on the dog. The dog soon gets
to understand the arrangement and
will soon have a pathway worn along
the entire length of the wire on both
sides in his scampers.
To prevent fouling Of the chain at
the far post attach a support. which
will enable the chain to slip over and
into place readily.
The location OF the wire run can be
so arranged as to permit the dog to
guard both the front. side or back of
the dwelling. as well as the gate.

II difficult to make and keep the wire
from sagging under the strain of a
goodsized dog.
