It is easier and cleaner to use than mussy plasters or oint ments, acts quickly and does not clog the pores. It does not stain the skin. Sloan'sAl Die World's linimeni i hukm)AY EVENING, Court and House marshals gave strict orders that expenses be cut all round; a number of the servants were shipped to Berlin, so that their board wages, to which they were en titled while in Potsdam, might be saved; only flowers from the royal gardens dared be used for decora tion, while great loads were bought from different purveyors during the For sprains, strains, bruises, "black and blue" spots, Sloan's Liniment reduces tile pain and eases the sore ness. Certainly fine for rheumatism, stiff neck, sciatica, lame back, toothache. You don't need to rub—it pene trates. Its use is so universal that you'll consider Sloan's Liniment a friend of the whole family. Generous size bottles at druggists everywhere. Kaiser's residence at home, and. Anally, the expenses of the kitchen were reduced two-thirds, because the Empress took meals privately with the children. "William the Sudden." But the Kaiser, sometimes all of a sudden, burst anew into the midst of our humdrum existence, having left his friends abruptly, or his busi ness unfinished; occasionally, it was said, press criticism brought him back earlier than anticipated. Hence he employed a day or so despatching the most urgent affairs of state, and immediately set the ball of courtly entertainments rolling. He wou d order a dinner of a hundred covers or more for next day, and again, while that was in progress, invite his guests, or part of them, to accom pany him on a yachting expedition on the liavel lakes. Gun-charger Riger, who, in his gold-embroidered dress, stood behind the Kaiser's chair on festive occa sions, often conveyed a brief com mand of that kind to the House marshal on duty in this fashion: "His Majesty's yacht Alexandra and so and so many auxiliary yachts must be ready at such and such an hour," —usually at four or five, if the' meal began between one and two. Regal Extravagance. To execute this imperial wish, tele graph, te ! ephone, and mounted mes sengers were plentifully employed in an effort ,to drum together officers and crew, hire vessels, and secure a band. Furthermore the personnel of the "coffee and tea kitchen and con fectionery had Vp be sent to the steamer with their outfit, for each of the five meals to which their Ma jesties were accustomed must be served punctually. Promptly at the hour named, the marshal on duty "submitted" that carriages were waiting to bring their Majesties and the company to the enibarking-place, and, before the vessel left, the official took heart to ask his master where he commanded that supper shall be served. Maybe His Majesty answered, carelessly: "Pfauen Insel," or, "Park of the Marble Palace," "at eight." The first is a small wooded island in the Havel, containing a semi-fur nished royal villa that affords a cer tain amount of space, but little else, for the accommodation of guests. The castellan of the place selected for the invasion was now hurriedly informed, and the stable-master set about getting ready ten or more so called kitchen vans to transport all that was necessary; refrigerators and liot-c.osets, table-linen, basketfuls of silver and plate, china and crystal, wines, meats, vegetables and delica cies, lamps and candelabra, and a thousand and one accessories. All these things were under the care of certain officials and servants, and, the staff being thoroughly or ganized, the whole train was equip ed in an incredibly short whle and started for its destination, the Court marshal following in his carriage to superintend the arrangements nota bene if the Kaiser had not mean while made up his mind to go else where. Servants Driven Dike Cattle. For the places of rendezvous were changed with alarming frequency, and before a cavalcade started for a certain castle or park, the men usual ly offered to lay wages that upon their arrival they would find a tele gram ordering snpper in some other lodge or villa, or on the borders of some lake five or ten miles to the south, or east, or west, as the case might be. Once they were chased in this manner from Charlotten Hof to Wildpark, and from there to the En tenfang, far out in the royal hunt ing grounds. The Entenfang is a romantic spot, such as young lovers might select for a picnic; but imag ine the tumult and work which the impromptu establishment of a royal table of from twenty to one hundred covers must occasion, when the nearest castle or royal villa is ten miles off. The vans had to be sent back to the Neues Palais for tables, chairs, carpets,'and a little tent for the toil et, while the nearest military post furnished Meld cooking-apparatus, and a dozen or more horses were driven lame travelling to and fro with heavy loads The damage caused on occasions like this by broken crockery, crystal, and ruined furniture also reached a high Mgure. A Wild Whim Uncontrolled. I-'oreign visitors at our Court fre quently wondered how it was possi ble for one man to give employVnent to three hundred and Mfty horses in driving and riding, as the Emperor did. The story of these whimsical ex cursions explains that point, for, aside from the horses Reeded for the serv ice, carriages (or motor cars), must be sent to fetch their Majesties and suite and company from some dis tant place, perhaps, while others were col ecting the ladies and gen tlemen in Potsdam and neighbor hood, or from incoming trains, who had been "commanded" to be pres ent at supper at some place whero at the time stipulated no sign of life existed. At twelve or one o'clock in the morning, when the imperial master, his titled suite and his friends, had forgotten, in several hours' sleep, all about the forty-live minutes of enter tainment that kept a small army of men, women, and beasts on the run since lunch, the vans and carry-alls returned to the palace, often awak ening many a noble lord and lady who wondered that any living creat ure dared disturb their august slum ber. When the Kaiser was at home, his conversation perpetually turned on the subject of future outings, and his secretaries and adjutants were kept busy scouring the papers for items that promised excuses for a visit to one place or another. As soon as an opening was dis covered, the Court-marshal must find ways and means to secure an invita tion for the Kaiser, and to that end either the military authorities, the Chief of County, or some Prince or aristocrat living in the neighborhood, received instructions, which in many cases were most eagerly followed, for William's presence in any place, not his capital, was a guarantee for no end of advertisement. Sometimes, thought, it was quite difficult to per suade the municipal authorities, the worthy men being afraid of the cost of the undertaking. Invents Kxeuscs for Constant Travel If neither cities nor country dis tricts, neither the North German Lloyd nor the Hamburg Line, neither the shipyards nor yacht or hunting clubs at home or abroad, held out al lurements, the Kaiser, quickly re solved, made opportunities for travel or display. He observed, for instance, that It was so and so many years since the Regiment received an honor ed flag. "Let's grant it a new set of colors," said William, and presently parades, religious ceremonies, speechifyings, dinners, and tattoos were in the air. Or, all regiments being provided with flags, His Majesty felt "graciously pleased" to bestow on one or an other "ensign ribbons," an act yield ing as much in the way of spectacu lar splendid as the other. When we went to Rome the Kin* mjUUSBURG (AfiSt TV! hXiKAPH of Italy said the Kaiser's train of eighty people reminded him of the deluge; but our three days' stay at Hanover cost nearly half as much as the tour in the Peninsula, one-third of that amount was expended for carpets and rugs. The royal castles, you must know, are empty barns for the most part, and whenever either of the Majesties visited the resi dences in Bres au, Konigsberg, Cas sel, Wiesbaden, Homburg, and Stet tin, or when William went to his various hunting-boxes, whole car loads of furniture, pictures, decora tive material, and all the necessary silver, linen, and kitchen utensils must be sent ahead, together with a full force of servants, horses and carriages, food and forage. Burlesque of Royal Pretense. Fancy, then, the tumult occasioned by the meeting between the Roman offs and Hohenzollernß in the capital of Silesa„ when two palaces had to be furnished from top to bottom! The robbing of Peter to pay Paul was almost pitiful to behold; my mis tress actually had to jgive up her fa vorite damask curtains, which she bought out of her own money for Wilhelmshohe, to garnish the connu bial couch of Nicholas and Alix, while she herself had to sleep in u bed once occupied by the plebeian King Jerome, brought on from Cas sel. The pieces de resistance in the home improvised for their Russian Majesties in Breslau were taken from the consignment of Empire fur niture, which one of the electors of Hesse bought in Paris some lifty years ago and for which payment was refused. His Royal Highness'a Diet had to liquidate the bill in the end, and when the Prussians annex ed the country, they promptly seized the furniture as the country's own. Which is a little matter the Peace Conference should not neglect to take into consideration, for much of the Kaiser's supposed private prop erty is really state-owned hence shotiid be seized and sold for the benclit of the countries bled white and devastated by Prussian bullies at the Kaiser's behest.
