The ability TO DO our utmost OF WORK at this
critical time is really matter of patriotism. If
you have bad teeth and are neglecting them, you
are nowhere near 100 per cent efficient.
Bad teeth are one Of the most destructive
agencies to the human system. Not only are they
most painful and unpleasant things within them-'
selves, but their bad influence does not stop with
toothache. They produce virulent poisons, which
i'm turn create MANY other ailments.

small letters: Made in Germany"

Two rooms were assigned TO me on
one Of the upper floors Of the palace
and my meals consisted Of the same
kind Of food as I had always had be-
fore the war, although the hunger cpl
demic was raging throughout the coun-
try. 1t was almost worth the trip for
the sake Of the meals alone.
After / had treated the kaiser In the
morning / went to my rooms, as / knew
1t would be three O'Clock before he
would be ready for me again. He never
allowed anything to interfere with his
after-dinner nap.
After the kaiser had had his sleep. l
was summoned to his dressing room.
He entered the room attired In a red
flannel undershirt. 1t was the first
time l had ever seen him in such a
state Of plebian n~egligee. and ! receiv-
ed more or less of a shock. had been
so accustomed TO seeing MIN in uni
form, both in pictures and in person.
that it had never occurred to me thdt
underneath that symbol Of pomp the
kaiser probably dressed the same as
we lesser mOrtals. l noticed incident
ally that when he put on his military
coat he put it on right over his under
shirt.
HOmburg was much carer the fir
ing line than Pless, although, Of course.
at a very safe distance. 1 noticed,
however, that here anti-aircraft guns
had been planted, but apart from that
there was hardly any more activity
than there had been at Pless.
While walking down the corridor !
was stopped by an officer and asked
who 1 was, but, as a rule, / came and
went without m~OlestatiOn and seldom
had to show my pass, which ms Of the
kaiser's adjutants had given me and
which permitted me to enter and leave
army headquarters for the whole yeai
1917.
When ! was driven through tbs
streets of HomOurg, both coming from
and going to the railroad station, in tbs
kaiser's motorcar, and the second man
or bugler, on the front seat, blew thu
horn, people came running out o.
stores and from afar to get a view o
the important parsonage who occupied
the kaiser's own car. Many of then
saluted me or raised their hats, and
thought how angry they would havl
been had they known they were put
ing themselves to so much trouble t
salute an alien enemy
The righteousness Of the who'll
thing impressed me very much. Fo

nor. He was very FOND OF Marx
Twain. and ne followed one or two Of
the American monthlles and weeklies
more or less regularly. He told me
that, one evening while In his sitting
room in the Berlin palace, reading
something in an American magazine,
he ran across a story which caused
him to laugh 80 much and 50 LOUD that
the ladies Of the court. who heard him
in al adjdcent room, came running in
with their knitting to see what the
mattes was.
The kaiser had little respect for u
architecture. He thought our sky
scrapers. Of which he had seen illus
trations, were hideous.
How terrible to sesecrate the land
scape with such tall buildings" he
commented. "They hurt the eye. How
can people live IN themg'
/ explained that most Of the build
ings 10 which he referred were Office
buildings, but that we did have four
teen and f~fteen-story apartment houses
and hotels. and even higher ones, In
which the upper floors we're used for
living purposes just the same as the
tower ones. He couldn't believe it
possible that people would consent to
live 50 far above the ground, and from
mis- own aversion 70 visit a place that
was even one story above the ground
floor. l rather got the idea that he was
afraid Of height. Under the building
laws prevailing in Germany no build
ing OF more than five stories may be
erected.
Perhaps the quality that he enyied
most Ia Us was our inventive genius.
When Orville Wright was flying at
Tempelhofer Field, in Berlin. in the
early days Of aviation, the kaiser
could not restrain his admiration.
4 wish could encourage my people
to become great inventors. such as
America has produced he declared,
rather hopelessly. 4 admire your
wonderful inventive genius
The kaiser objected very much to the
fact that many Of the foreign opera
singers were attracted to New York
by reason Of the fabulous sums PAID
them at the Metropolitan opera house.
Despite the fact that the kaiser ae-
: cused Us OF spending our money too
lsvishly. he repeatedly charged the

The Kaiser and Things American.

INV NAfoti an0 iulDAo rfFfCfNSA0s
Among the Germans generally there
is a surprising degree of ignorance re-
garding conditions in America. The
u~ntraveled German has but the vaguest
ideas concerning our people and u
institutions. l have had patients Of
intelligence and education ask me how
we are abe to cope with the Indians.
In view Of the extent Of German emf
grafton to America and the vast vol
ume of commercial transactions be-
tween the two countries, II is almost
unbelievable that such n no
tons should prevail in these enlight-
ened days. but they do.
This fact partially serves to explain
how easy it was for the : sr and his
inspired press to pull the wool over
the peoples eyes regarding the unim-
portance Of Americas entry into the
a II doesn't explain at all, how
ever. how completely the kaiser him.
for / doubt whether there is any for
eigner living. who has never visited
America who knows more about u
country than the German emperor. In
deed, he was more familiar with many
OF our problems than many of u
countrymen. and he frequently reveal
ed to me in the course of our CONVEX
sations how thoroughly posted he was
on American conditions.
Long before the subject OF forest
conservation vas taken up seriously in
this country. the kaiser pointed out to
me what a great mistake we were
making in not devoting more atten-
ton to It,
"Can you tell me. Davis. why you
have so many forest fires in your coun-
tryf' he asked. after a particularly
destructive confiagration In the West
had destroyed many acres of timber.
How does it happenT'
I explained to him that most OF the
forest fires came from sparks from
locomotives. Careless lumbermen al
lowed the branches which they Topped
off the trees TO remain on the ground
and when they were ignited by sparks
the fire sometimes spread to the uncut
uIuDeT. As the ldCllAlcS lOh CAtAh-
gushing fire in these unpopulated re-
gions were practically nil and the ell
mate made the timber particularly in
6ammable. these fires usually attained
serious dimensions.
''That points out again the inefi-
cheney OF your form of government" he
commented. "You have laws requiring
the railways to use appliances TO ar
rest the sparks from their engines,
haven't youg Why don't you enforce
them? Your people don't seem IL
realize that it takes years to grow a
tree. Because you have mOre than you
need today. you make 40 preparation
for tomorrow. For every tree cut
down another should be planted. II
you don't adopt some such measure the
time will surely come when America
will have to turn &c Germany for tim
ber."
The kaiser was a harsh critic OF our
election system. The idea of a four
gear term for the president was nat
urally 'epugnant to one who held such
exalted notions as TO the rights OF
rulers. 1t would be too much TO ex
pect the H~ohenzollern mind to approve
Of a constitution which provided fol

.P0|NDEXTER WILL PUSH
RENT-PROF|TEER|NG BILL
Declares He Will Offer It as Amend
ment if Committee
Sleeps on It.

Senator Poindexter urged upon the SEN
ate judiciary committee today the neces-
sity for enactment of legislation to pro-
hibit profiteering in rent during the war
He is the author of bill now before the
committee dealing with this subject He
had his bill referred to a subcommittee
consisting Of Senators Smith Of Georgia
Wolcott and Poindexter.
Il shall do everything in my power to
get early action on this BILL" said Senator
Poindexter. after the meeting In one
way or another l intend to get the matter
before the Senate and to put senator's on
record in regard to it | shall offer it as
an amendment to an appropriation bill or
some other bill if 1 cannot get it out Of
Senator Poindexters bill applies to
the entire country. 1t provides that
no person, lessor or sublessor of
dwelling house. hotel room. apart
ments or boarding house. shall charge
for the use of the same by soldiers or
sailors or any employe connected with
the military or civil service or any
person engaged in producing for the
government any food. munitions or
eouipment, during the existence of the
work, a larger rental than the rate for
similar use of such rooms or houses on
December 1, 1917. Any person violat-
ing the act shall be punished by fine
not exceeding $500.
Senator Poindexter said that he was
convinced prodteering in rents was
going on In many cities in various
parts Of the country as we'll as in the
District of Columbia, and that some
thing should be done to put an end
to 1t,
