Although, as befits a man who be lieves in the divine right of kings, the kaiser shows a stern front to the pub lic when he. drives about the streets, in private there is no monarch so easy, so frank and full of fun. When he met Lord Salisbury during his first visit to Cowes some time ago he told that augUBt man some stories which made him spilt his sides. He even dug the premier in the ribs when his grandmother was not by, and then apologized for the indiscretion. Japanese Uie English. English is the language of the Jap anese offlce—In Its Intercourse with foreign diplomats, and even in Its tel egraphic correspondence with Its own representatives abroad. All telegrams from Tokio to the foreign agents of Japan are written and ciphered In English, and replied to In the same manner, though If the Foreign Minis ter has occasion to send a written dis patch, this, as a rule, is In Japanese, which may be said to be a cipher in itself. Ltmooi for th« Toilet* Few women nowadays but know the value of lemons and the fruit Is so cheap that the toilet table should not be without this “little yellow doctor,” as some call it. Lemon Juice is whiten ing either for the hands, neck or face. A piece of lemon rubbed on the teeth removes discoloration, but the teeth must be brushed afterward or the acid will injure them. A piece of lemon tossed in the wash water is refresh ing and likewise softens the water.

Th# Question, "Who was Bismarck?" which was put by & German pfficer to his own, called forth some curious answers. Nine said that he founded the German empire, seven thought that he was an emperor, a great num ber pictured him as a general, one said that he was a poet, and another that he translated the Bible. The neatest answer was that he was ''the Kaiser’s greatest enemy.” A Moaxtata Explorer. Sir W. Martin Conway, whose chief fame la due to hlo mountain exp loi mg expeditions in the Himalayas and the Andes, has boon appointed Slade pro fessor of One art at the University of Cambridge in succession to Dr. Charles waldotein.

Flying fish, called by naturalists "Exocaetus,” is a common sight to all voyagers In tropical and sub-tropi cal seas. Their usual length is from ten to twelve inches, though one eight een inches long has recently been de scribed. They are enabled to execute Hying leaps by means of the great development of their forward or pec toral fins. During the flight the fins are kept quietly distended, without any motion. Their flight Is rapid, greatly exceeding that of a ship going ten miles an hour. Protecting Visitor* from Doga. Where the owner of vicious dogs re quests a woman to come into her yard and fails to protect her from the at tack of the dogs, and she is severely bitten and injured by the dogs that she died from the effects of the injuries, the supreme court of Louisiana, in the case of Dellsle vs. Dourriage (29 S. Rep., 731), holds that the owner of the dogs is responsible for the injuries and that $2,000 damages therefore is not excessive. I>r.*» makers Scares In Maulla. According to one of the officers' wives who has returned for a home visit from Manila, there are now two hundred American women in Manila for whom there is only one dress maker. He Is a Chinese. Recently he was arrested for smuggling, where upon the two hundred women began to Intercede. If Bang were put in jail wherewithal could they be clothed? Fortunately Sang proved himself not guilty A Curiosity of Nature. A pine tree and a birch tree have grown so close together In Woolwich, Me., that one trunk serves for both, sending forth pine branches on one side and birch on the other. The union seems a happy one, in spite of the fact that the two trees are as widely separated by the botanist as two well can be, and the gnarled branches of the pine embrace the birch In a most affectionate manner. Cerven on Spanish Nary* In speaking of the future of the Spanish navy recently, Admiral Cer vera expressed fears that Spain might be broken into a number of small states. "I do not wish,” he said, "that the interests of the navy should predominate at the expense of the other interests of the country, but observing as I do what is going on at the present, I am afraid that Spain may become like the Italy of the mid dle ages." Gold from River Dredging*. In the operation of dredging navi gable channels at the mouth of the Moruya and Shoalhaven rivers in New South Wales it was discovered that the mud contained much gold dust. 'An automatic golfl saver was then at tached to the dumping machinery and it Is estimated that enough gold will thus be obtained to defray the expens es of keeping the channels open. Rn.alan* Emigrating: to Siberia. A Russian contemporary states that fl.e emigration of Russian peasants to Eastern Siberia, and especially to the Ussuri territory, is going on at a fever ish rate. During the first three months of the present year nearly 3,000 people left Odessa for Vladivostok. One single Steamer carried 800 emigrants to the far east. Most of the emigrants are from southern Russia. Compliment to United i>t»tes. The new $4 bill issued by the Domin ion of Canada promises to become popular, for artistically it is a master piece of the engraver’s skill. On its face it bears a flattering picture of the lock ou the canal at Sault Ste. Marie, an engineering work purely American. This vignette is regarded as a delicate compliment to the United States. Senator Clark IJkes Paris. Senator Clark of Montana has de fcided to spend a part of each year in Paris, and lias offered a large sum for the house of Count Potolkt, in the Avenue de Friedland, which is one of the most beautiful in Paris, only sec ond to the Palais Castille, occupied by ex-Queen Isabella of Spain. Chicago University Branching Out.

Kites have been used with great success as a means to stop partridges rising and flying from cover where it is wished to keep them for shoot ing—the birds will not rise when kites are flying above them, fearing, doubt less, attack.
