The less complicated constitution and the

difficulties than under modern conditions.
The patience with which he Informed him

There are two directions III which Kaiser

His Longing for Fame
Early BETRAYED in Little Things

In contrast to his father, Friedrich H.
under the influence of the cpanging period
and his intercourse with foreign scholars
felt a need of appreciation which early be-
trayed itself In little things. In his cor
respondence with Count Seckendorff he
sought to impress this ancient sinner by his
sexual excesses and the maladies following
thereupon, and his aggressive onslaught
upon Silesa directly after his accession to
the throne he himself described as the result
OF his longing for fame.
He despatched poems from the battlefield
with the appended remark: Not so bad
for the eve of Il great battle"
But this longing for applause this love
of appreciation Is in a sovereign powerful
and sometimes profitable motive; when 1t

prone to lapse into epicurean inactivity;

does not conduce to the success OF his coun-
try.
Would the world have lived to behold the
great" Frederick or the heroic pledge of
Wilhelm l. IL neither of these monarchs had
felt the need of appreciation?
Ambition in itself Is a mortgage which
must be deducted from the capacity for
work Of the man who Is incumbent by II
in order to arrive at the net profit which
remains rs the available sum of his talents
In the case of Frederick the Great genius
and spirit were so lofty that they could not

and the III usage Of Trenck, may all be swal-

In Wilhelm T. the consciousness that he

was extremely active but the noble qualities

enough 70 bear the burden all the more as
his love Of appreciation was free from exces-

duty and his valor. The element which

subjects and servants, and IN their loyalty

Two Outstanding Traits
OF Frederick the Great

Frederick the Great did not propagate

tory must have worked upon each of his
successors ms a challenge TO resemble him.
He had two peculiar gifts, each Of which
enhanced the other: he had the qualihca-
tions Of O commander-in-chefa and a homely
bourgeois understanding of the interests of
his subjects.
Without the first he would not have been
In n position to make lasting use OF the
second, and without the secord his military
success would not have won Linn The recog-
milton Of posterlty in such degree a. has
been the case--although one may say Of
the European nations IN general that that
king i the most truly national and the
most beloved who has won the bloo,liest
laurels FOR his country: sometimes even
when he has lost them again through his
own neglect. Charles MI. Jbstinate,v led

The autocratic temper of the age of

by the lapse OF time; but If 1t had lain

period, | believe i should not have been
