KAISER'S MANY WAYS
 OF RAISING MONEY
(Kansas City JournaN

Some piquant revelations of the kaiser's efforts to raise money for himself are given by Miss Edith Keen, an English woman, who spent seven years at the German court
 Miss Keen was engaged eight years ago as "a dresser to Princess Leopold of Prussia, the German empresss sis ter, and during her service she met many great personages of the court, including the all highest himself She returned to England only after great difficulty. You know too much," she was told.
 Tn 190S," writes Miss Keen, "the kaiser was getting into financial diff faculties. Many of the household au- counts had not been paid for some years. The kaiser had a heavy per sonal overdraft on his bankers.
 Ultimately, the kaiser relieved him. self of all his pecuniary embarrass ments by the sale of some of the royal estates at Potsdam.
 Tt was at this time that the habit sprang up at the German court of very wealthy people paying large sums to obtain for their daughters some sort of position about the court, either as maid of-h honor or lady-in- waiting to the empress. l heard that in the sea- son of 1910 four court appointments brought in $175,OOO for the empress.
 T was told by the Princess Leopold that one lady paid the German en- press $50,000 to be allowed to accom- pany the kaiserin to the British court on the occasion of the last visit of the emperor and empress to Windsor castle.
 Royal warrants were sold at higl l figures, as much as 5000 being pait by some tradesmen for warrant | though some of them never, as a mat | ter of fact, got any royal custom. | Invitations to great court func | tions and ceremonies could be bough almost by anyone who cared to pay tn, price for this honor. A thousand pounds was the usual fee for an invi tation."

Dreaming of a Home

are now dreaming of building home, and the coming generation is longing and dreaming for the time when they too may plan and build home
 But must not stop with dreaming and Wishing must act, put dreams into execution-buid to- day,not tomorrow-the world is full of men and women who have dreamed a dream but failed to act and the worlo-our state,-and town-is the loser by their slothfulness
 Back your dream with energy-do some constructive thnking-lay out program for the accomplishment of your purpose and hew to the line.
 Let home building be your dream-make it reality then you will realize that your fulfilled dream was but the stepping stone for honor joy and contentment. Today is the day to realize your dream.
