PAHIS, Nov. 15. At one of tho few con versational salons of tho old order that still flourish In thu midst of the rush nnd hurry of modern cosmopolitan l'arls thcro hap pened to bo a largo gathering of bnbltucs on the day when It was announced that mad King Otto of Ilavarla bad shown signs of returning sanity. Comment on tho in formation from various points o'f view was brought to' a focus by a financier noblo of the second emplro, who remarked rather pompously: "Madness In ono form or another Is tho special distinction and hallmark of aristoc racies. Wo all havo a mad drop in our blood if wo havo any blood worth men tioning." Thcro was a moment's pause, then a seri ous looking young man epoka up with tho quiet authority which thorough knowledge of a subject gives to tho possessor. "Madness Is, nt any rato, tho doom of royalty," he eatd. "It Is almost Inevitable, In fact, that royal blood should bo tainted with the beginnings of Insanity. It may or may not bo true, that a king can do no wrong, but it Is all but certain that ho can never bo entirely sano." Tho speaker was Dr. de la Vaudrlere, probably tho most eminent, as ho Is cer tainly tho most fashionable, specialist In Paris on nervo tllsrasro nnd maladies of the brain. IIo began his career some twonty years ngo, as one of tho favorite pupils of tho famous Charcot of tho Sal petrlorej studied lator in Italy under Lombroso; passed an unusual sort of a year In Ireland Inquiring into tho curious out break of ether Intoxication In Ulster and the tea drinking mania hi Connaught; then returned to Paris to write remarkable treatises on all theso things. Ills reputa tion was soon made; only his commercial fortuno lay ahead of him. IIo Is now laying hold of tho dollars by treating tho nerve tualndlw, real or imaginary, of tho now mllllonalro quarter around tho Paro Monoeau. Dr. do la Vaudrlero's rathor startling reflections upon royalty wore challenged by tho hostess, whereupon ho took up the question nt length and gavo us in halt an hour a conversational lecturo ns fascinat ing as It was sensational. I shall borrow from his material to add to personal re searches on tho subject of hla talk. , KIiik Otto a n n Type. To begin with, tho unfortunato King Otto, tho roynl houso of Uavarla, seems to bo under some mystic curse. Among tho kings and princes of Ilavarla for centuries back tho dreaded Insanity Is always crop ping up; sometimes skipping a generation, sometimes marking down two or threo princes in ono grim year. King Otto, for oxamplo, is successor to his brother Louis II, who was deposed from tho throno ob a lunatic and flung himself Into tho fish pond of Uorg castle, shrieking that If they would not lot him ho king of tho Davarlans, at least they should riot provent him from ruling over tho carp and gold fish. For twenty-flvo years Otto has reigned, nomi nally, from tho royal and splendid madhouse of Furstenried, sometimes raving mad, somotlmcs brooding mad, somotlmcs pathotlcally gay, singing, like Ophelia, snatches of plalntlvo peasant songs, somo tlmcs wailing for hours llko a sick baby, but adwayo mad, stark, staring mad. Even If ho should definitely regain his reason, as his physicians scorn to expect, tho period of lucidity will probably provo to bo tho last sputter of reason beforo it Blnks in its socket forever. That, at any rato, Is our expert's opinion. And ho adds: , "Tho mero ghastllncss of Otto's return to an oxnltcd station after twenty-flvo years of oblivious Idiocy would In itself sufflco to turn his brain again. I am not thinking merely of tho nppnlllng senso of shamo that would almost certainly overwhelm him and work morbidly on his overwrought nerves. i mean that ho must bo Infinitely moro bus coptlblo than tho average, typo to tho condi tions which tend almost fatally to crcato insanity in any man placed In tho extra ordinary nud utterly abnormal position of a roigning prince. Even a klnc of navnrl.i. ndmlnlsterlng a little kingdom as vassal to a great cmparor, Is, within his own bor ders, treatod with nil tho slavish subservi ence that waits on tho emneror at neriin. It takes a strong hoad and a sound system to Keep us balance amidst theso conditions. How can a broken mind like that of Otto withstand them7 In a hundred ways kings nro less imciy to enjoy physical health and nervo tono'tbnn tho plowboy In tho fields," continued tho phyelclnn. "Their blood gen erally comes to them polluted and enfeebled by tho most unnatural marriages anlonc their ancestors. Their childhood has ncvor nau any natural unrestrained gaioty in ltj their education has been forced beyond the bearing point from an ago when happlor children havo not left oft making mud pies. As they grow up thoro comes tho terror of ttssaHalnatlon.

In Ucrlln, and all over Europe for that matter, thero circulate, periodically, do-' tailed stories of outbreaks of absolutely maniacal fury on the part of tho kaiser. That he shows manifest public signs of megalomania oven his best friends ndmtt. Ills outspoken claims to direct dtvlno in spiration, his wild oratorical outbursts, his pretensions to a perfect inborn mastery of nil tho arts and his tyrannical method of resenting legitimate criticisms of his crude productions are significant. Tho other day all tho world was laughing at him over that historical picture Into which he 'had his own august self painted In nil tho glory of his Imperial robes and Imperial moustaches, though he was a school boy when tho pic ture was first painted. Everyone remem bers, too, how, on his yacht in tho Baltic, ho appeared ono Sunday robed In fantastic, would-bo-eccleslastlc robes, read prayers on deck to his astonished officers nnd men nud solemnly gavo them his blessing at tho end of tho service. Thcro Is oven told in Paris tho story that on another day, when a storm arose, ho went upon tho bridge, yelled at tho wind to ceaso blowing and looked absolutely disgusted nnd amazed when ho discovered that his authority did not roach so far. A few days ngo ho is re ported to havo bought on his own Judgment n set of six costly "Moorish" steeds brought by an Itinerant Arab for his inspection, which turned out nfter tho purchase to be ordinary "skates," faked by tho BUbtie arts of tho son of the desert, nnd worth In tho market about $20 apiece. When tho stable men pointed out tho Haw In tho Imperial omnlsslence, tho kaiser's fury was terrific nnd tho frightened witnesses for n time meditated binding tho foaming monarch with vulgar stnblo ropes. A UroodliiK Mj-dtlo. If Wllholm suffers from megalomania, N'lcholas of Russia, a gentler soul, has melancholia as tho eternal companion of his days nnd nights. IIo Is a brooding "mystic," sadly pondering nil tho time over Insoluble metaphysical problems, a fatalist of tho dreary Oriental type, "our palo brother of dreams," as tho princess of Wnlcs Is said to havo called him. IIo dab bles in all kinds of occult pursuits and Bur rounds himself, when dignity will permit, with weird professors of dark arts. "Wise women" from tho roaming Tartar tribes read tho stars for him; American crystal gazers havo watched their globes for him In his study n,t Oat chlmi nnd communicated to tho weary, hopeless young man, with tho sad eyes, tho wonderful visions they soo of the doing! on tho Astrnl Plane. It is well known that tho attack mado upon him in Jnpan, when Prlnco Gcorgo of Orccco came so manfully to tho rescue, wa3 caused by Nicholas' ef fort to enter disguised n Shinto temple nnd to penetrnto tho Jealously guarded mys teries which no whlto man has over soen. Those who saw him in France on hla lato visit wero all struck by n certain uncanny look always lurking In his face, however ho might smllo In obcdlonco to tho protocol; tho expression of tho dovoloplng melan cholia maniac. Nicholas believes that ho 1b doomed to bo assasslnntcd, not becauso It Is tho natural end for a Russian emperor, but becauso astrologists and crystal gazers, who know nothing of his rank, havo more than onco predicted for him a violent death. It is a long step from Nicholas of Russia to tho Bad little king of Spain, whoso ap pearance gives tho Impression that ho Is traveling down tho samo dark road of mel ancholy. Alfonso, tho dark-browed, hcavy oyed, slcnder-llmbcd llttlo boy of 15, plays sadly iu a reserved stretch of tho Bands of San Sebastian, his grave mother watching him nil tho tlmo. and his fow carefully picked playmates, chosen from tho sons of tho grandees of Spain, scarcely daring to touch him. Tho utter smash of Spain In tho American war enmo Just as tho boy was beginning to feel that ho would bo so trained as to play It nobly. Tho practical wiping out of Spain from nny world Im portance has saddened both deeply, incur ably. Even without that crushing blow Al fonso could never havo been gay; ho is ono of tho victims of education. His young life has been ono long, dreary grind nt books. He has had crammed Into bis aching head flvo or six languages and enough history and political economy, not to mention all tho ordinary branches, to stock a collcgo professor for all his career. Probably very llttlo of Alfonso's undigested learning will remain with hlnl when, next year, ho flings away his books and picks up tho scepter, Hut It looks as If tho molancholy of his school days would hang over him all his Ufo. Una Troubles of Illfi 0rn. Tho old emperor of Austria belongs to a generation when royal persoungos wero not supposed to know any moro than other peoplo or even as much. IIo Is bel loved to possess a genial contempt for all books and to Ignore that special form of nervous sensibility that often menaces tho bookish temperament. But ho has heavy troubles of hla own, and small insanities that spring from them. Apart from Borne of his own ml3deeds there has been heavy grief in his family, grief coming both from madness and from crlmo. Apart from tho Influence; of tho terrible stories that cling around tho archdukes, nnd of tho sad empress, as sassinated In tho midst of hrr half Insano dream companionship with thu old Greek gods, tho Austrian kaiser Is depressed by tho knowledge that his emplro Is crumbling away boncath him. He suffers from a mix ture of melancholia and megalomania nnd Jumps from unhealthy and oven unseemly gaioty to brooding caro, waking sometimes from that condition to singular forms of petty personal tyranny. One of his small insanities Is bis Jealous preserving of tho famous wild boar shooting of tho imperial forests. His son-in-law, Prlnco Leopold of Ilavarla, is passionately addicted to tho pursuit of tho wild boar, and Is nlways try ing to dodge his father-in-law's vlgllnnco and havo a go at tho tusked monster of the woods. Tho old emperor BOmotlmcs dreams o' nights that this desperato young prince Is out by torchlight in quest of tho sacred animal. Trembling with rage, tho kaiser will ring up his, mnjordomo nnd will not bo pacified until ho has been assured n score of times that the prlnco is Inno cently asleep in tha palace. It would no doubt bo Impossible to make out a presentable list of royal persons as sane ns sailors. The king of England might go as an example though, after all, a theorist bent on making his point at any cost might observo that Edward seems to havo suffered from chronic "debt mania," which, in an exaggerated form, may bo a sign of distorted mentality. Ono of the Inst persons ono would think of accusing of any mental twist would bo tho Jolly young queen of Holland, so often described as tho perfect typo of "healthy mind in healthy body." Vet not a fow peoplo wero painfully startled by a llttlo Incident of her "Inauguration." As she stood at tho church altar with her mother, they two alono within tha sanc tuary, sho dropped her bouquot. Sho looked appcallngly at her mother; tho ex queen regent flushed deeply and nodded refusal, Then Wllhelmina stretched out her hand in an imperious gesture, pointed to tho bouquet on tho ground nnd gazed stead ily In her mother's eyes. And tho mother, half crying, stooped and handed tho bouquet to tho queen. Tho Incident shocked ovory ono that saw It. Was it tho beginning of royal megalomania 7 C. W.

Mothers who recall their own experiences will make every effort to see that their daughters meet it right. Girls who hive the benefit of WINECAEDUI at the age of puberty, develop Into healthy, attractive women. The Wine helps a girl to form cor rect menstrual habits, and upon her early menstrual habits depends the health she will have for all her life.
