Your little Pets need Cascarets
Children think Cascarets just dandy,
They are safe and mild cathartic candy.
Sell for a dime —"work" every time.
MOTHERS! Clean the clogged-up places. Do away with the bile,
sour fermentations and constipation poison which is keeping-your little
one cross, feverish and sick. Children love Cascarets, because to
them it is like eating candy. Cascarets act better than castor oil,
calomel or pills on the tender stomach, liver and bowels. Cascarets
never gripe, never injure, and do not disappoint the worried mother.
Give harmless Cascarets to children one year old and upwards.

Filled nnd I'ae at Home
Philadelphia, Pa. Do you wear
glasses? Are you a victim of eye
strain or other eye weaknesses? If
so, you will -be glad to know that
according to Dr. Lewis there Is real
hope for jou. Many whose eyes were
failing say they have had their eyes
restored through the principle of
this wonderful free prescription. One
man says, after trying it: "I was al
most blind; could not see to read at
all. Now I can read everything with
out any glasses and my eyes do not
water any more. At night they
•would pain dreadfully; now they feel
fine all the time. It was like a
miracle to me." A lady who used
it says: "The atmosphere seemed
hazy with or without glasses, but
after using this prescription for fif
teen days everything seems clear. I
can even read fine print without
glasses." It is believed that thous

British Sailors Miss
American Comrades
London, Mar. 12. Officers and
men of the Grand Fleet miss their
comrades of the American battleship
squadron which shared the war vlr
gil of the British navy. The text just
made public of the messages ex
changed by the two forces when the
American ships departed December
1, shows how strong was the friend
ship between them.
fully benefited by following the
simple rules. Here is the prescrip
tion: Go to an active drug store and
get a bottle of Bon-Opto tablets.
Drop one Bon-Ofto tablet in a fourth
of a glass of water and allow to dis
solve. With this liquid bathe the
eyes two to four times daily. You
should notice your eyes clear up per
ceptibly right from the start and in
flammation will quickly disappear.
If your eyes are bothering you, even
a little, take steps to save them now
before it as too late. Many hopelessly
blind might have been saved if they
had cared for their eyes in time.
Note: Another prominent Physi
cian to whom the above article was
submitted, said: "Bon-Opto is a very
remarkable remedy. Its constituent
ingredients are well known to emi
nent eye specialists and widely pre
scribed by them. The manufacturers
guarantee it to strengthen eyesight
50 per cent, in one week's time in
many instances or refund the money.
It can be obtained from any good
druggist and is one of the very few
preparations I feel should be kept on
hand for regular use to almost every
family." It is sold in Harrisburg by
J. C. Kennedy, Croil Keller, J. Nelson
Clark and other druggists.

[Continued from Yesterday.]
Von Wittich reported the incident
to the Emperor, and William, who
was unwilling to lose the General,
concluded that Liebenau needed
some of his own medicine. So he
sent for hint.
"I will assume that your quarrel
someness is the outcome of over
work and nervous excitement," he
said, forestalling explanations; "you
will leave this evening for a six
I weeks holiday." Then he turned on
i his heel, while the Court-marshal
stood half dazed.
! But six weeks do not last an etern-
J ity and at the end of his vacation
Liebenau seemed to be as much of a
favorite as ever. In fact, the Em
peror appeared to welcome back
with much satisfaction his double,
from whose resemblance to his own
self he had recoiled at a moment of
anger.
And if Liebenau had not double
crossed the "Allhighest" himself, he
might have continued to defy tho
Empress and eudgle the Court for a
quarter of a century longer.
But he happened to do the Kaiser
out of an ovation at the very mo
ment when William craved and
needed pdpular applause more than
usual, and this is what happened
to our tormentor!
"A word with you," said William i
looking his nastiest at the Court
Marshal on his return from the trip,
"this affair of Elbing (the place
where William missed the 'hurrahs')
has opened my eyes to your char
j acter and capabilities. 1 can't use
i a person who sets my people against
! God's anointment! You have an tag -
j onized tier Majesty, tlio Court, the
i aristocracy, my people, you have
antagonized ME. , You aro sacked,
i do vou hear what I say, sacked."
I "Koared at and kicked out like a
dog-snatcher," whined the scared
bully as he went out with bowed
head.
Triumvirate of Ambition, Insolence
aiul Libertinage
To complete the triumvirate of
ambition, insolence and libertinage,
let me now introduce the Kaiser's
friend, who rendered him as infa
mous as Herbert and I.iebnau ren
dered the Empress and the—:
Philip Eulenburg.
Here we have a chartered liber
tine, whom the Kaiser raised from
the position of an obscure Councilor
of Legation to the greatest honors
in the land, whom he enriched at
the taxpayers' expense by various
grants and, finally, made practical
overseer of the whole German diplo
matic corps.
William erected his own statue in
Eulenburg's palace yard, conferred
upon him the title of Prince aiul
appointed him Member of the House
or Lords and Privy Councilor.
A wing of Liebenberg Castle, com
municating with "Phili's" apart
ments, was set aside for William's
own imperial use —in short, he
showered him, up to the very day
of the Harden exposures, with every
favor in his power.
Eulenburg was Third Secretary of
Legation in Munich when they first
met at Castle Sclilobittcn. the seat of
Count, later Prince, Richard Dohna,
who subsequently stigmatized the
part he unwittingly played by this
chance introduction as "the great
folly of his life, never to be suffi
ciently atoned for."
Less than a month after the meet
ing at Schlobitten, the unknown dip
lomat's appointment as Minister to
Oldenburg was gazetted and two
years later —Eulenburg having in
the meantime attended the Kaiser
on his Northland trip—we find him
Ambassador at royal courts, Stutt
gart and Munich. In 1902 he was
the Kaiser's representative in Vien
na when not dancing attendance up-
on William in Berlin, at his hunting
boxes or on his travels.
Eulenburg had little besides his
salary to bless himself with during
these early years, for Liebcnberg,
bought with his wife's money, yield
ed no revenue to speak of.
Political Jobs for Bankrupts
Eulenburg was kept poor and
made poorer year by year by the
Kaiser's flattering, but expensive
visits. Like the typical Prussian
official, he never had money of his
own.
Add to this the expensive habits of
Court life, and the terrible infliction
of having to feed seven hungry
youngsters ("so devoted a royalist
would never think of having fewer
children, or more, than -William, it
was said), and you get a vague
notion of things as they were in the
Eulenburg household.
The promotion to the Munich
post, together with the excessive al
j lowance for moving, helped Eulen
burg momentarily; but until the ap
pointment to Vienna put consider
able funds into his pockets, he nev
er breathed freely.
Itojal Exchequer Keeps Wolf From
Door
Eulenburg was in the very throes
of financial despair, as everybody at
Court knew. The Kaiser alone af
fected to be ignorant of his friend's
trials, and often remarked: "I like
nothing better than spending a
few days at Liebenberg; the only
treble is. the place is so terribly
olsfashioned," words that were re
peated to the Minister by the royal
house officials and occasional guests
over and over again.
So frequent and so annoying were
these references, that the prince of
Meiningen once said: "He will be
driven to the Jew, if you keep on."
"Keep on—what?" retorted the
Emperor angrily.
"Thowing his poverty up to him."
"Do you see him anywhere
about?" said the Kaiser sarcastic
ally.
"Xo." replied the Princess Char
lottiv "for a wonder, there is no Eu
lenburg present, but the gossips-in
ordiriary are," and Her Boyal High
ness, raising one of her fatr shoul
ders, pointed to General von Hahnke
and von Plessen.
The Woman Pays
Eulenburg. however, did not go to
the usurer, but selected the safer
though thorny, road —he borrowed
from a relative, his sister-in-law
wife of Count Eulenburg, Major in
the Guard Dragoons. This lady,
blessed with .a considerable fortune
in her own right, allowed herself to
he persuaded to provide not only
funds for the building and furnish-
I ing of an imperial suite of rooms
at Count Philli's seat, but in addi
tion. lent her brother-in-law a snug
sum, the interest of which was to
bo exclusively applied to the enter
tainment of His Majesty.
And on conditions that she be in
vited to meet His Majesty twice per
year, Madam relinquished all claims
for interest.
To this extraordinary display of
respectful devotion on the part of
the Eulenburg family. His Majesty
was not insensible: not only was
Count Philli, who never in his life
had distinguished himself as a diplo
mat. promoted beyond the dreams of
hardened ofFice-seekerdom, but grati
tude led William to unwonted ex
travagance.
To improve the outlook from the
imperial suite of rooms at Lieben
berg. he presented his host with a
stone fountain "to be erected in the
farmyard opposite His Majesty's
windows," leaving to His Excellency
the cost of setting up and finding !
water. Countess Eulenburg, she of j
the loose purse, who was good at !
figures told Countess Brockdorff that
the expense of rearing the orna
ment exceeded by far the sculptor's
and stonecutter's bills.
Vices Seemed to Be a Virtue
P.ut while Eulenburg, like the rest
of His Majesty's impecunious but
useful friends, never "saw the col
or of his money." he did taste much
of the sweetness said to reside in
what Pitt called "the Power behind
the throne." Because lie learned
to bedizen himself with the Kaiser's
weaknesses and small vices, to ac
quiesce in his (William's) lack of
principles; because he had it in liis
heart to gloss over tlio Kaiser's
faults and to affect admiration for
all his doings and sayings, one of
the chief rogalisms was turned over
to his tender care—the making and
unmaking or the diplomatic corps.
"Courtiers," said the Kaiser, are
like the clothes I wear: necessities.
They have their fixed places in my
circle, men as Eulenburg on the
other hand, are butter on the bread
of our pleasure; as for the rest, one
can get along without negligee at
tire, but it is mighty uncomfortable
in the long run."
Honors Heaped on Favorite
When Eulenburg inherited the do
main of Ilertefeld in Rhineland,
with an income of quite 100,000
marks per year ($25,000), the Kai
ser created him successively Baron
of Hertefeld, Count von Sandels and
Prince, with the appellation of Se
rene Highness.
And. after the late Baron Nathan
Rothschild —all the "round table"
called him "Nathie" —made the new
Highness heir to a couple of millions
of francs, the Katser the title
of "Right Honorable Privy Coun
cilor to the Prussian Crown" and
sent "Phili" to the House of Lords
as his special representative.
The Eulenburg Family
Prince "Phili" is the father of two
daughters, Alexandrine and Victoria.
His eldest son, Frederick, married a
rich Viennese girl and has one
daughter. There are two younger
sons, Siegwart and Charles.
Their sister Augusta ran away
from home with her father's secre
tary, Edmund Jaroljmek, a Pole.
After the first Harden trial. Count
ess Augusta congratulated the editor
on his victory over her father, while
Jaroljmek, to balance accounts, de
clared emphatically that the rumors
stamping him a victim of his father- 1
it. -law's libertinage had no founda
tion in fact—which is uplifting, to
say the least. ,
To finish "Phili's" family: Ilis
daughter-in-law, nee Marie Baron
ess de Meinholf, refused to ever set
foot in Liebenberg again and aban
doned the construction of the grand
castle rising, half finished, in the
shadow of the princely chateau.
Friendship Persisted, Despite All
Protests
To establish, in cold type, the re
lationship between Kaiser Willielm
and the person abandoned by his
children, common decency forbids
That it continued for twenty-years
the soandahim magna turn of Eu
rope's courts, despite the. protests
and anathemas of three Chancelors
—suffices to characterize the friend
shlp between the head of the Ger
man Empire and the most notorious
libertine in Europe.
Prince Bismarck used to say:
"There have been somo clever war
riors among the Perverse—A'cibi
ades, Caesar, Peter the Great, and
many Turkish Sultans, whose names
I forgot—but never a diplomat of
distinction."
And both old Bismarck and Her
bert made it their business to tell
the Emperor repeatedly that Eulen
burg was unfit company for him,
stating their reasons in the plainest
language.
To cap the climax, tlio elder Bls
marek added: "One glance of Ku-
Icnburg's eyes is enough to spoil the
most elaborate luncheon for me,"
But, the Kaiser took no notice and
continued to associate with this man
and his infamous coterie: General
Count Kuno Moltke, Count Johannes
Lynar, who went to prison; Counts

Kaiser's Mother Condemns Him
Opinion at Court and serious men
generally, fully endorsed Prince Bis
marck's drastic characterization and
there were many who thought it ap
plied to all the rest of His Majesty's
intimates, including Huelsen, and
the cloud of military chums, his
adjutants, etc.
"It is a pity." said the Empress
Frederick after Count Waldcrsw's
retirement from Berlin, "that my
son will have none but lightweights
about him; all men of acumen are
pushed aside. Still. I suppose I must
not grumble so long as Count Her
bert is kept out." Empress Fred
erick regarded Herbert Bismarck
as the man who had instilled In
the Emperor the liking for persons
of his—Herbert's —stamp—flatterers,
shallow and insolent, defamers of
womankind, taphouse Jesters and
buttons. "Scratch either of the
Klderlen-Eulenburg-Huelsen crew
and the pickle herring will appear,"
she was wont to say, and years ago
nothing gave her greater satisfac
tion than the termination of Wil
liam's friendship with the Austrian
Crown Prince Rudolph, whom she
abhorred as any decent woman
might abhor a beast.
After all, men and women are
Judged by the company they keep.
Admitted that the Kaiser had not a
great number of peers to 'choose
from. Count Schulenburg, royal
chamberlain, figured out that every
tenth German noble was a moral
leper—if William himself had been
a clean, decent man, why did he se
lect the most notorious and despic
able members of the aristocracy f or
Ills companions?
There were the two Hoh'enau's,
fugitives from justice; Count [vuno
Moltke, ditto; Count Rynar, Prison
er No. 2213 at Llegburr Peniten
tlary; Count Edgar Wedell, banlsbe
from German soil; Major Von Nor
rnann, suicide when about to b
taken into custody.
But admitting that Prussian noble
are rotters, there were at least sixty
nine millions of other Germans t
choose from.
Correct. His Majesty did choea
among them. And here are th
names, etc., according to Crimlns
Court records: Sailor Trost, of th
Hohenzollern: Recruit Bollhardt, o
the Cuirassiers; Corporal Riedel, o
the Ranters; Gus Stelnhauer, pollc
sergeant: Private Kestler and other
of that caliber.
Most of the last named crew
