occasional failures of tact have little

These great imperial duties are of
such Importance that the whole world
asks the question, What equipment will
the man bring whom fate may any
day summon to aSsume them?
In practical training the crown prince
is virtually unprepared for the great
responsibilities that are in store for
him. 1t is for this reason that many
Germans are tolerant Of his indiscre,

enthusiasm for this kind of instruction.
and his absence from social and sport
ing activities was very irksome to his
wife. Soon nothing more was heard
of his keeping Office hours.
But it is not the princes inexperi-
ence in governmental affairs that has
made Germany grave Such %inexperi-

and is not Il menace to the future
if it is combined with a we'll ordered
mind and a willingness to learn from

during the past two years have not
been of a character to give this assur-

young man, in whose untried hands
enormous influence and authority will
some day be placed.
Germany hopes that the kaiser will

to Berlin. Here undoubtedly his royal
fathers watchful eye will he kept upon
him and his movements.
The differences between the kaiser
and his heir have agitated all Ger
many. and speculations are rife as to
what sort of a ruler the crow prince
will make. The German empire has
many difficult problems before it. and
any man to deal with them adequately
and maintain the position of the
country in world politics must be
equipped with personal f%orcefulness,
tact and training. The German en-
peror, whoever he may be. must al
ways have to deal with the delicate
internal situation in the empire, not
the least disturbing feature Of which is
the growing power of the Socialists;
he must also handle the complicated
political situation resulting from Ger
many's carefully planned expansion in
the near east and in Africa and her
trade development in the far east, and
he must be prepared to uphold his
country's hardly won position as one
of the greatest of the world powers.
Much Of the prominence of Germany
in the past twenty-five years and her
steady commercial advancement have
been due to the brilliant personality Of
William II. He has had prime minis
tiers and ministers of foreign affairs of
skill and capacity, but back OF their
every project and more especially of
their every accomplishment have been
the keen mind and the masterful hand
of the kaiser himself. He has not al,

goes in; then one after another is in

of merriment issue from behind the
closed door the interest of the unlnl-
tiated is aroused to the highest point.
The fortune teller hands the seeker
after knowledge Il handful of tooth
picks and tells him to get down ON
his hands and knees and place them
in line. And here is where the sport
begins, for II II all require the rea-
son why they must take that attitude.

must place the picks with his nose or

use his hands. Most fantastic barn
yards, dooryards, pens and fences are
constructed from those picks. the in
quirer evidently thinking the greater
care bestowed in placing the picks will
insure him a more favorable fortune.
When they are placed to his satisfac-
ton he is told to arise. The fortune
teller then. looking him squarely in
the eye and pointing to the picks, says.
"Your past was to place those tooth
| picks; your future fortune is to pick
them up" The expression on the face
of the enlightened seeker can better be
imagined than described. They scram-
