The Herald, 1912-07-19, Page 4SECRETS OF ROYAL PEOPLE THEY ARE REPT RIGIDLY FROM SERVANTS. Never See the Scrap Paper or the Blotters, Used by the Ring. During the recent industrial trou- bles in England the cables have on more than one occasion announced that the Premier has visited King George. But not the slightest ru- mor of what has happened at these meetings between King and coun- oellers has ever leaked out. Directly Mr. Asquith leaves the King and the King himself has quit- ted hie apartments a •secretary en- ters the room and destroys the con- tents of thewaste paper basket, the blotting pad or any odd pieces of paper which might lead to a clue eirneerning anything that happened at the interview. Until this is done not a servant is allowed to enter the room. At the King's stationery office similar safeguards against the leak- age of State secrets are taken. The departments most intimate with the King's private business put all waste papers into sacks marked `Absolutely confidential," and an official of the office throws them in- to a destructor. No servant •ever sees into the interior of King George's private writing desk. There is only one key in existence, and that his Majesty carries everywhere with him, fas- tened to one end of his gold albeit. With regard to State papers, the King is compelled to take some one into his confidence, But while in Ilse they are KEPT UNDER STRICT GUARD in specially constructed dispatch boxes. The King's secretary, Lord Sta,mfordham, has charge of the keys of the boxes, and he is the xmly individual who knows the con- tents of the papers kept in 'them. That King George has many pri- vate investments is well known, but the people who know exactly how much these transactions are worth, and in what direction they lay, can be counted on the fingers of one hand. Elaborate precautions are taken .to keep his name out of the •world.of finance. Although he holds ei; 'lean; _securities, the trusted Iriende through whorn he works never by anv chance let his name he breathed in connection with any one of them. When certain people receive in- yitations to a house party given by the King er Queen there are often s31ruggings of shoulders and raising Of •eyebrows among the smart set dowagers. Such invitations gener- ally have private reasons behind them, which their Majesties take good care to keep to themselves. The majority of people, however, who become Royalty's guests are, as a rule, especially gifted in some direction, for talent in any form always finds favor with Royalty. One of Royalties' most closely kept secrets is the contents of their diaries. THE EMPRESS OF GERMANY, litho chronicles a daily survey of happenings in the German Royal palace, keeps a diary fitted with lock and key. an example followed by most adult Royalties throughout Europe. In his anxiety to keep all his cor- respondence absolutely secret, the German Emperor has surrounded himself with difficult codes, pass- words and devices. All his corres- pondence is inclosed in waterproof envelopes of special construction and heavily sealed with a signet ring which seldom leaves the Kai- ser's ,hand. No one exeept the Empress of 'Russia shares the secrets of the Czar. The heavy Cloud of suspi- cion under which his life. is eonduct- ed does not tend to confidence, even • among his most trusted courtiers. The same also applies to King Alfonso, who, by reason of the un- restful state of his country, finds it best for diplomatic reasons, to keep his private business well out of the ken of public opinion. . q+ PUNISHMENT FOR DRUNKS. The punishment for intoxication in St. Petersburg is to make the offender, no matter what his social position, sweep the streets. Well - attired gentlemen, some of them in dress suits, are occasionally, it is said, seen sweeping the streets af- ter a night's carouse,' A BENEDICT'S IDEA.

A woman who is constantly tra- velling and yet who finds it meek necessary to economize in space as well as in pennies, has found the fol- lowing plan for packing her one trunk a most excellent one. At the bottom of the trunk she has a par• tition made large enough to carry one large or two small hats. This is strongly made, so that it cannot easily be broken. At the side of the partition she places a wooden box filled with sawdust, in which are her bottles of medicine. Here, too, she ,lays her ehoes, each pair carefully rolled in linen covers. On one set of shoes she puts her pair of rubbers, and inside the shoes she places her boxes of pills or pow- ders which would not go into the box of medicine. Then she has six or eight pieces of heavy cardboard cut to exactly fit the trunk. These she covers with linen or chintz, so that they look exactly like large envelopes3 with straps or strings to fasten down the flaps. In these huge en- velopes she pins her dresses, shirt- waists, etc. Two or three dresses can usually be put in each envelope. Everything is kept absolutely fiat, and nothing can be pushed to one end of the trunk when it is stood on end. At the top of the trunk is a shal- low tray, in which she puts her laces, ribbons, veils, and gloves, etc. The underwear is rolled and placed around the edges of the trunk, or is folded flat and laid be- tween the envelopes. TRAINING EAGLES FOR. WAR. Think They May be Induced to At- tack Airships. Some officers of Nice, ' according to a French newspaper, have been. training six eagles to attack aero- planes and dirigible balloons. Although many attempts have been made to construct a gun for destroying aeroplanes, the problem has not yet been solved. These officers therefore chose eagles as capable of attaining the necessary speed and height in the air, and be- gan by habituating them to the noise of motors and firearms. Then, by fastening choice morsels of food on small balloons and frame work representing an aeroplane, they have trained the birds to throw themselves fiercely in such objects and tear them as they tear their prey. Given the powers of the eagle's WOULD SCREA FOR HOURS ITH ECZEMA Baby Dreadful Sufferer, Could Not Keep Him from Scratching, Every JointAffected, Used CuticuraSoap and Ointment and He Is Well, • "Enclosed find my son's photo and I feel by writing these few lines to you I am only doing my duty, as my son was a dreadful sufferer from eczema,.

I took him to two of Sydney's leading doctors; one said It was one of the worst cases be had seen the other did not think it so serious; one ordered ointment for rubbing in, the other a dusting powder.

Mothers who keep a box of Baby's Own Tablets, in the house may feel that the lives of their lit- tle ones are reasonable safe during the hot weather. Stomach trou- bles, cholera infantum and diar- rhoea carry off thousands of little ones every summer, in most cases because the mother does not have a safe medicine at hand to give promptly. Baby's Own Tablets cure these troubles, or if given oc- casionally to the well child will pre- vent their coming on. The Tablets are guaranteed by a government analyst to be absolutely harmless, even to the newborn babe. They are especially good in the summer because they regulate the bowels and keep the stomach sweet and pure. The Tablets are sold by me- dicine dealers or by mail at 25 Menta a box from The Dr. Williams' Mt'dicine o.', Brockvill ,' NOW-A-DA115: ' "Do you think he really loves her 1" "Why, he's marrying her, isn't he?"

It Eases Pain.—Ask any druggist or dealer in medicines what is the most popular of the medicinal oils for pains in the joints, in the muscles or nerves, or for neuralgia and rheumatism, and he will tell you that Dr. Thomas' EcIectric Oil `is in greater demand than any other. The reason for this is that it possesses greater healing quali- ties than any other oil. Hope is the advance agent of re- signation. Minard's Liniment Cures Colds, Etc.
