tressing with blind spells Of dizziness,
rush Of blood 10 the head and neural
gic pains in the chest.
Since using Grape-Nuts alone for

CHINA'S BABY EMPEROR
Details of the Life of a SiX-Year Old
SOVEREIGN.

Interesting details have Just been made
public OF the daily life OF the baby Empe-
ror OF China. who is nearly six years OF
age and who lives secluded from the world
even his mother only being allowed TO pay
occasional private visits" says the Peking
correspondent Of the London Daily Mall
As soon as the Emperor KuangHsu died
the baby Pu-Yi was taken from his mother
and placed in the Forbidden City In the
hands OF the Empress Dowager, who was
henceforth regarded as the baby Emperor S
mother. Even the hidebound etiquette OF
tho Chinese court had 70 give way, how
ever. to the imperial babys grief at being
separated from his mother, and arrange
ments had 20 be made for occasional visits
The baby Emperor is addressed in the
palace as Wan-Sul-Yeh Gord Of Ten Thou
Sand Years. Every morning he IL aWaH-
ened at s O'Clock by the singing OF eight
eunuchs. and he has three meals a day, az
s a. M noon and 8 p. IN, retiring 10 rest AT
8 p. m. The baby Emperors diet ls SIM
10 put any article Of food upon his table
which cannot be procured Immediately at
any time OF the year. The reason Is that
the Emperor is supposed to be given any
thing he asks for and IL this is impossible
the unfortunate official responsible IS liable
10 severe punishment. Among many other
things the Emperor has never tasted fish.
"The Emperor is said TO be wilful by
nature, and TO revel In mischief, especially
when he can induce his attendants TO fol-
low him into a flooded courtyard after a
heavy shower OF rain. BY a decree Issued
