 think your experience will confirm the statement that all over the United States banking interests have invariably come forward unhesitatingly with ready aid in all crises when the country needed their assistance. My judgment is that with out this fund, things would have gone on in the same distressful rut into which they had fallen; that there would nave been no money available, save here and there, for the relief of the owners and growers of cotton, and that there would have been no market, save in very linn ited and circumscribed local way, for cotton at all, and then only at ruinous prices.

Proper Way to Leave Napkin

'To decide an argument, will you please tell me which is the proper way 70 leave your napkin when guest at a dinner? AGNES K.p
 Do not fold it, but lay it in a loose heap by the side of your plate To fold or roll would seem to intimate that it may be used for the next meal by some body else. And a man should never tuck his napkin inside of his collar to pro- tect his shirt front, after the manner of a baby's bib. It ought not to be nec- essary to drop this hint to masculine diners, but observation proves that it is. James," said Mrs Nouveau Riche to her butler, of a guest at her table,

i German states. Still another thing-the anonymous author of The .press Frederick. recently published biography of Emperor Williams mother, calls at tention to a remarkable bit of dynastic history revealed for the first time at the jubilee celebration of the present Kaiser
 It was made public in an address at that time. delivered by Professor Hintze in the Berlin university. It was to the ef- feet that his imperial majesty was in- formed before his fathers death, in 1888. that when that death occurred there would be placed in his hands a sealed document of great importance, which when read proved to be the political testament of King Frederick William ", King of Prussia, brother of Emperor William I. who made united Germany, and great { uncle of Emperor William IT.
 This paper contained,' so the biog- rapher relates" the speaker went on to
 inform, King Frederick Williams ad- vice to his successors on the throne of
 Prussia. Part at least of these counsels
 was deemed to be possibly so seductive
 to soverigns of certain temperament.
 that the Emperor William II felt it his duty to commit the whole paper to the flames. The royal testator who inherited from his mother, Queen Louise an ex- ceedingly exalted idea of the rights of
 the crown, recommended successors to
 revoke the written constitution which
 he himself had granted his people. But he had high sense of the obligations of his kingly word and royal oath, and accordingly he advised any of them who
 might take the step to take it before he had sworn to observe the constitu- tion at his coronation. The Emperor William I and Frederick III seem to have been content with ignoring the testament. It was left for their success
 sor, William II, fearful lest 1t might one
 day tempt some young and inexperi-
 enced ruler into dangerous paths, to de-
 story it. His apprehensions were curi-
 ously strong. He felt he told Professor
 Hintze, as if he had a barrel of gum
 powder in his house, and he knew no
 peace until he had rid himself of the
 terrible document"
 When ruler of strong convictions"
 said the speaker in conclusion, "a ruler
 whose convictions are expressed in ac
 tion, gets an idea in his head, especial
 ly a ruler whose forbears believed that
 of divine right they ruled and gov
 erned the world with a definite mission
 to perform, he Is likely to go ahead and
 undertake the work he believes to be
 cut out for him, and that is why think

His father, Emperor Frederick III, was champion of the di- vine right of the Hohenzollerns with splendid vision while he was Crown Prince of a united Germany under the military protection of Prussia, which union he later helped to. achieve. The conception of an empire won by the sword made an appeal to his strongly developed idealistic nature, and his highly developed historical imagi- nation. He yearned to see the King of Prussia not only first among his peers, but overlord of all Germany. However, it Is significant that when his father, the Emperor William I, was proclaimed Elm peror, in the Hall of Mirrors at Versailles, it was as German Emperor, not Emperor of Germany This took place on January IS, 1s1 the anniversary of the day upon which the first King of Prussia had crowned himself at Koenigsburg''
