Emperor William Only Has $35,- 000,000 and $5,500,000 Yearly. Emperor William is not by any means the richest man in the Gerâ€" man empire. Here as well as in other countries the personal wealth of his Majesty has been more or less in matter of mystery, with a notice- able inclination on the part of his friends to exaggerate the true fig- ures of his fortune and the number of his castles. It is true, on the other hand, (that he Kaiser passes‘ses the larg- est income of any man or woman in Germany, but there are three per- sons in Prussia. alone who have greater wealth than their soverâ€" cign. One is Frau Bertha. Krupp von Bohlen 11nd Halbach, heiress. of the Kruplp millions, and the others are Prince Henckel von Donners- ma,er and Prince Christian Kraft zu Hohenloheâ€"Oehringen. HIGHER THAN 'l‘HElR KAISER. According to the latest expert figures concerning the wealth of the Emperor his income is $5,500,000 11 year. His private fortune is esti- mated conservatively at $35,000,000. The principal possession of the Kai- xser consists of 144,840 acres of for- est land which yields an annual in- come of $425,000, and 94,812 acres of agricultural lands that bring a, yearly not profit of $450,000. Very often one reads in the newsâ€" papers thab the Emperor of Ger- many owns 53 castles and 83 prince- ly estates. éAYEB Seed Oats Do not be misledâ€" Ask for “PERRIN'S” Gloves and look for the trade-mark. 0E0.

From many fragments of the architecture of the early ages, and first allusions to the horse as a domesticated animal, it is obvious that nothing superfluous in the way of saddlery and harness was emâ€" ployed, and on Grecian reliefs and friezes horses are represented as being ridden without bit, bridle, saddle or stirrups, the animals be- ing trained to Obey the indications of the hand and leg, while the at- tachments for draft to the chariots used in war and sport were of the simplest character. As time went on, however, superfluous and in- jurious portions of harness were inâ€" troduced, the weight of leather and metal furniture increased, and more attention was paid to appearâ€" ances than utility. This has continued down to the present time, and in spite of the protests of those who have made the welfare of the horse a. specialty, and the example of a few enlighten- ed owners who have realized the adâ€" vantage of lightness and simplicity in harness, there still persists the idea that certain portions, such as the bearings and heme rein and the winker bridle, even is unnecessary and useless, give the horse a more furnished appearance, and, when dispensed with a naked look. In other terms, fashion or custom outâ€" weigh consideration for the comâ€" fort, wellâ€"being and effective workâ€" ing of the horse. Headache Over the Eyes? Look For Nasal Catarrh Catarrh Never Stops in One Place -â€" It Spreads Rapidlyâ€"Often Ruins Health Completely. In this changeable climate it is the little colds that drift into Catarrh. Unless the inflammation is checked it passes rapidly from the throat or nose to the bronchial tubes and then to the lungs. You can‘t make new lungs any more than you can make new fingers or toes. but you can cure Catarrh. The surest cure consists of breathing in the healing balsamic essences of CATARRHOZONE, which is simply a medi- cated vapor so full of rich curative pro- perties that every trace of Catarrh van- ishes before it. “The soothing piney vapor of Catarrh- ozone is the most powerful medicine I ever used,” writes Mrs. Edmond J. Chris- tine. of Saskatoon. “Every breath drawn through the Inhaler sends a grateful feeling through the air passages of the nose and throat. Catarrhozone cured me of frightful headaches over the eyes, re- lieved me of a stuffy feeling in the nose, and an irritable hacking cough that had been the bane of my life for a year. My general health is greatly improved, my appetite and digestion are considerably better than before. Catarrhozone has been the means of giving me such health as I always desired. but never possessed.” Even though catarrh has a firm hold on you, and affects your throat, nose? or cars, you can thoroughly cure it with Catarrhozone.

Extracted Teeth of One Workman Contained Quantity of Lead. A tendency of the teeth and gums to absorb lead has been observed by Victor Hinze, 3, German dentist, among the workers in an accumu- lator factory. The teeth all had much tartar, and that scraped from the teeth of one man affected with anaemia and other symptoms of poisoning was found by analysis to contain about oneâ€"half of one. per cent. of metallic lead. Extracting the seventeen teeth still retained by this man, the mo tallic lead in the crowns was shown to be 0.0038 per cent. and 0.033 per cent. in the monkâ€"sufficient to give continuous lead intoxication. The tartar was removed from the teeth of the other workers ans? L‘ni‘: was followed by marked imyrv ment in the condition of gums and general health.

YOU ever WHAT IS INTERESTING THE PEOPLE OF THE CITY AT THE PRESENT TIME. BUR [ETFER FRHM THREE“) The New Candidate (or North Yorkâ€"Dr. Ross to Investigate Freidmann Cure â€"Women's Polico Court. Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King, at present a resident of this city. and who has just been nominated as the Liberal candidate in North York. has seen more of the lime- light of public life than perhaps any other man of his years in Canada and unless all signs fail he will continue to attract attention for a good many years to come. Mr. King is a, grandson of William Lyon Mackenzie, his mother, who is the wife of Mr. John King, K. (3., one of the lec- turers at Osgoode Hall, and a particular authority on the law of libel, being the {laughter of the "patriot" of 1837. there is no doubt that Mr. King inherits some of the qualities of his famous grand- father. He has, for example, undoubted ambition for public service. He has spent allrhisflife in public positions._ work. where he made a special study of industrial conditions. This aeemed to give him qua- lificationa for the Department of Labor, which was at that time being establishâ€" ed at Ottawa by Sir William Mulock. To this field he was therefore transferred, later resigning the position of Deputy Minister of Labor to enter the hurly burly of active politics and to become a member. as it turan out. of Sir Wilfrid Laurier's Cabinet. The defeat of the Gov- ernment in 1911 and his own personal de- feat left Mr. King Without employment. TRY IT WHEN YOU’RE TIRED You will find it wonderfully refreshing ernment in 1911 find hisvbyifpérsbnal de- feat left Mr. King Without employment. Will Stay In Politics. For the present. he has decided to stay in the political life. He has a reputation as a public speaker and as a writer and as he has no family it is comparatively easy fpr him to fpllow his inclinatigya. In the graces of public speaking Mac- kenzie King has few equals in the coun- try. He has a splendid voice and excel- lent delivery. which cannot help but be impressive. He is perhaps lacking in the lighter elements of humor on which many political leaders have based great suc- cesses. While he has great ability. there are those who maintain that he has the faults that often go with ability of this type. They tell a story of his campaign in 1911 in North Waterloo. which is pro- bably not true, but which indic.tes the nature of the criticism that is made of him. He was speaking at one of his own meetings before a. friendly audience and was denouncing in round terms some act of one of his political opponents. His audience was being carried away with him and one enthusiast burst out. “Who done that?” It is related that Mr. King paused to say. “I presume my friend meant to say who did that." As inti- mated, the story is probably untrue. In North York. The other day the Canadian Club had Mr. King address it on the Navy ques- tion. As evidence of the interest in the subject and in the speaker, one of the largest crowds in the history of the Club turned out to the meeting. The speech was frankly partisan and was enjoyed or criticized according to the convictions of the individual listener. The speech illu- trated Mr. King’s strength and his weak- ness. In other words, he was in spots ef- fective and in other spots unconvincing. North York in which Mr. King has now 1raised his standard has been a historic fighting ground between political parties for generations. It has been often repre- senth by a man prominent in the coun- jcils of his party. This and the fact that ‘Mr. King's grandfather used to represent 1 the constituency almost a century ago imay help his candidature, though it must be pointed out that generally North York is one of those constituencies that shows a partiality for a member who supports the party in power. To lnvostlgals Frledmarm's Cure. With characteristic enterprise the To‘ ronto General Hospital has delegated Dr. G. W. Rose to spend several weeks in New York investigating the Friedmann cure for tuberculosis and making observations LPTGN’S - TEA on the progress of the tests now being carried on there. Immediately on his re- turn Dr. Ross will make a report for the local institution. The hospital au- thorities and the Province generally are to be congratulated on being able to se- cure the services of Dr. Ross, who has made a specialty of the new treatment for diseases in which line Dr. Friedmanu’a cure seems to follow. Dr. Ross’ report. may therefore be expected to be authori- tative and give the Province the very last word on the subject. From the latest in- formation obtainable thcre is a disposi- tion to believe that there is As. good (lee! in Dr .Friedmann's cure, and that while it may not accomplish all that has been claimed for it, it may mark a great step forward in conquering the "white plague.” Final conclusions must. however. he de- layed until there has been an oppor- tunity to observe the treatment and make a report on it. Ontarlo Club In New Home. The Ontario Club has gone into its mag- nificcnt new quarters at the corner of Jordan and Wellington strwts. The On- tario Club is the Liberal Club, organized two or three years ago with a. twofold purpose: First, as a rendezvous similar to other clubs, and, second, as a home for Liberalism in a city in which Liberalism is in need of care and attention. and such as the Albany Club has furnished Conservatives The Ontario Club stalrtedrout by laying (WI; fihé'EiémviéEE 'kbfixiéfly' Wécc'fipied b} Sample tree & Chemical Toronto.

L|mited, the National Club, but when this pro- perty was needed for other purposes the institution had to move into a. flat of an oificc building while new quarters were prepared. These are now ready, and furnish a club home which compares very favorably with anything in the city. The old Standard Bank building has been on- tirely renovated and as far as the inter ior is concerned, practically rebuilt, and no expense has been spared in the fur. nishing. Carpets and curtaine have been made abroad specially for the Club, and this, with the other fittings, give an air of considerable luxuriousncss. Attend- ants in knee breaches are on guard in the hall and an occasional critio might be found who would say that the atmos‘ phero was not entirely democratic. How- ever, those in charge have believed that whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing riizht, and they have spared no pains. There are some twenty bedrooms available for out-of-town members. Women in Pollco Court. As a result of the activity of the Local Council of Women and other Women’s or- ganizations, women‘s police court cases are now heard separately and in private. The males who have to attend police court are grumbling because the women’s cases are disposed of first, and that keeps the imen waiting. It is also claimed by critics ‘of the innovation that the lack of pub- ‘licity which was aimed at for the wo- men is not being accomplished, because, ‘while the cases are heard in private, there is more publicity than ever while going to and from the court. The women’s 01% ganizatione who secured the experiment seem to be well pleasedl Most of the fe- male offenders in the police court, are not deserving of much consideration, but ()0- casionally a. case comes to light which they claim amply justifies any trouble the separate court causes, Three Thread Princes Dead. It is a remarkable fact, that, wit-11in the last twelve months, three members of a family, which has built up one of the great-est com- mercial enterprisas in the would, have died, leaving millions of pounds to their heirs, and swelling the British exchequer to the extent of close upon £1,000.000 in death duties. The story of this familyâ€"â€" the Coatsfiuf Paisley, Scotlandâ€" who have made many fortunes out of cotton thread, furnishes a strikâ€" ing romance of modern industry. Large Three-Storey Dwelling So Transported a Mile. One of the most singular idea‘s ever involved in the moving of houses was recently put into pracâ€" tice in West Somerville, Mass, when a large three-storey dwelling was cut in two and moved from an eminence ten feet above the street level and set up a. mile distant from its former resting place. It was found impossible to move the house in its entirety. The cut was made squarely through the centre, and as the house was built in a very sym- metrical manner each half was an exact counterpart of the other. After bracing the house, first one section; and then another was moved to the new location with jackscrews and rollens. On bringing the two re-united divorced portions to“ 'gether they dove-tailed in such a perfect fit that it was impossible to discern the separating cut. As each of the sections was 35 by 20 feet at the base z‘md almost 40 feet in height, they were apt to topple MOVED HOUSE IN PARTS.
