KAISER WILLIAM AS t iOKER
S> II
Ho Got the Best of Hi* Hunting Cam-
pan ions but Young Lady
8c o red on Him. .
There is a good sporting story told
in Germany of the kaiser's love of a
practical joke, and it relates to a
boar hunt given to a number of
guests. Tramping through a wood
they met a keeper. "My good fel-
low," said the emperor, "you seem
very suspicious. Perhaps you think
1 haven't a license."
Thereupon out came s printed
document for the man's inspection,
duly stamped and signed. "Well,"
came the next question, "I hope
you're satisfied?" The man nodded
and then made a gesture toward the
rest of the party. "Oh, yes," ex-
claimed the mirthful potentate,
"I've no doubt the other gentlemen
will readily follow suit and show you
theirs." Of course not one had a
license, and all had to pay fines be-
fore a magistrate next day.
But he has not always liad it his
own way. One night he was pitting
out ¡1 dance with n young lady at a
rourt bail. "What would you say,'
he asked, "if i were to forbid naval
officers to marry?" "Your majesty,"
came the quick reply, "that would be
impossible. Your navy would cease
to exist."—Pall Mall Gazette.

STARTED BOOM IN MILLINERY ¡ ¡
Kaiser Wilhalm Had PrineoM Victoria
Louise Taught Trade as an
Object Lesson.
Some years ago it came to the
ears of the kaiser that in German
middle class families in which there
were numerous unmarried daughters
there was often a good deal of a
struggle to live and to keep up ap-
pearances, the women not being
taught any trade. It was to correct
this sort of thing that he had "the
apple of his eve," Princess Victoria
Louise, taught to be a milliner.
For months, morning after morn-
ing, a young milliner came to the
imperial palace at Berlin and initia-
ted the princess into the mysteries
of hat and bonnet making. It is even
hinted that the milliner suggested to
her young pupil that the mode as
followed by her mother and herself
was anything but up to date. Be
that as it may, the princess enjoyed
her lessons, though history does not
record whether she ever Vere s hst
trimmed by her own hsnds.
But the emperor schieved his ob-
ject end crowds of impecunious
women took to learning millinery, in
imitation of the Princess .Victoria
Louise.
