Fond Of a Good Story.

The kaiser was very fond of listen
ing to and telling stories with a point
and would frequently invite me to tell
him any new one that might have
heard: Some of the stories we ex-
changed were more or less risque and
would be out of place in these pages.

there was anything very much amiss

The kaiser frequently accused the

by the manner in which he catered to

Won Schwabach.
A number Of other wealthy Hebrews
in Germany were also honored by the
, kaiser in another way. Although he
was averse to visiting the homes OF
private individuals who lacked social
standing, he departed from this rule In
their favor and visited their mansions

Kaiser's Friendly Acts.

During that period Of my career in
Berlin, he showed the utmost interest
In my progress and frequently inquired
how my practice was developing.
Whenever the kaiser came to me it
meant a rearrangement Of my schedule
for the day. None OF my patients could
enter my ofiice while he was on the
premises. and. although the prestige I
got from the kaiser's patronage more
than made up. perhaps. for temporary

disturbance by coming as early in the
day as possible. Sometimes he came
before breakfast. On one occasion. in
midsummer. he came at o'clock In the
morning. just before going to peace
The first bin I rendered him. as
have mentioned, he doubled. On a
number of subsequent occasions he paid
me more than my bill called for. These
overpayments never amounted to very
much. but they impressed me because
they were so out OF keeping with the
stinginess the kaiser displayed in other
directions.

brought mo autographed pictures OF

The Kaiser's Dual Personality.

ary. 1918. and had written the impress
sion had gained of the kaiser in the
ten years had known him. what a
false picture would have painted Of
the man as he really is!
1t would have been picture Of q
bearing was every inch an emperor
and yet who could exhibit all the
courtesy, affability and gentleness of
the most democratic gentleman, man
soft Of eye and kindly in, expression.
man of wide reading and attain
ments-perhaps the most versatile
man in the world: man who possess
ed most alert mind, remarkable
memory and the keenest observation; !;
man who was not generous in ma
ture and yet was at times considerate
of others; man Of charming per-
sonality and amiability. 1t would have
shown a man Of unparalleled egotism.
man who was impatient of correc-
tion and who. would brook no oppo-
sition. There might have been in the
picture q suggestion Of the dire
1engthssto which the man would go to
have his way. but IL would have been
only suggestion.
1t took the war and its attendant
horrors to reveal the kaiser in his
true colors. The war did not change
his character: it uncovered 1t.
Early in my practice I happened to
mention to the kaiser that I appre-
ciated the friendliness he showed me
in invariably waving his hand at ne
as he passed my window when walk
ing along the Tiergarten.

his people.
Thinks People Eat Too Much.
That's good!" he commented. "The
Germans are too fat, anyway. The
majority OF the people eat too much"
Long after sautomobiling became
moro or less general the kaiser still
employed a horse and carriage for
ordinary travel. relying upon his free
use Of the railways for longer dis
tances. When, however, the reichstag
passed q law compelling royalty to
pay for their railroad travel the
kaiser took to automobiles. They
charged him 1000 marks, he told me,
for the use of q train on one Of his
shooting trips, and that apparently
was more than he could stand.
When the kaiser came to hire q
head chauffeur he wanted the best
man he could find. A man named
Weber. who had been employed by
an American millionaire, was recon-
mendcd to him. Perhaps the kaiser
figured that the privilege of working
for him was in itself liberal re-
muneration. Certain It is that the
salary he offered Weber would never
have satisfied a chauffeur who had
been accustomed to the American
scale of compensation. The motor
car company whose models the kaiser
was using agreed to pay Weber q
large sum each year in addition to
what the kaiser offered him. He
