Emperor William is not by any means the richest man in the Ger- man empire. Here as well as in other countries the personal wealth of his Majesty has been more or less a matter of mystery, with a notice- able inclination on the part of his friends to exaggerate the true fig- ures of his fortune and the .number of his eagles. It is true; on the- other hand, that the Kaiser possesses the larg- est income of any man or woman in Germany, but there are three per- sons in Prussia alone who have greater wealth than their sover- eign. One is Frau Bertha Krupp von Bohlen and Halbach, heiress of the Krupp millions, and the others are Prince Henckel von Donners- marok and Prince Christian Kraft zu Hohenlohe-Oehringen. According to the latest expert figures concerning the wealth of the Emperor his income is $5,500,000 a year. His private fortune is esti- mated conservatively at $35,000,000. The principal possession of the Kai- ser oonsists of 144,840 acres of for- est land which yields an annual in- come of $425,000, and 94,812 acres of agricultural lands that bring a yearly net profit of $450,000. Very often one reads in the news- papers that the Emperor of Ger- many owns 53 castles and 83 prince- ly estates.

From many fragments Of. the architecture of the early ages,. and first allusions to the horse as `a dom•estieated animal, it is obvieus that nothing superfluous in the way. of 'saddlery and harness was elm ployed, and on Grecian reliefs, and friezes Horses are represented =as being ridden without bit, bridle, saddle or stirrups, the animals be- ing trained to obey the indications of the hand and leg, while the at- tachments for draft to the chariots used in war and sport were of the simplest character. As time went on, however, superfluous and u - jurious portions of harness were in trocluced, the weight of leather and metal furniture increased, and more attention was paid to appear- ances than utility. This has continued down to the the present time, and in spite of t protests of those who have made the welfare of the horse a specialty, and the example of a few enlighten- ed owners who have realized the ad- vantage of lightness and simplicity in harness, there still persists the idea that certain portions, such as the bearings and home rein and thi winker bridle, even is unnecessary and useless, give the horse a more furnished appearanee, and, when dispensed with a naked look. In other terms, fashion or custom eat - weigh consideration for the ct m - fort, well-being and effective walk- ing of the horse.

Giant Tribe of East Africa Would Dishearten Any Cat. The housewife in this country would receive a severe shock if she were to encounter sonic of the East African varieties of rats in her pan- try mousetrap. The largest variety of rat — the giant rat — attains alarming proportions. These gia.nt rate would give the most earnest cat had dreams, and arough time if she were to encounter one of them on her marauding expedi- tions. Mr. A. J. Klein, taxidermist, Nairobi, who is collecting local specimens for an Amcrioan mu- seum, has sonic half a dozen exam- ples. The rat varies from two feet to over 32 inches in length. Tho body, whish is half its total length, is..thc color of an ordinary mouse, but is as .large as that of a cat. The tail is .sometimes an inch and a half and Blore in circumference: at the base, and varies from 16 inch- es to a foot long. These rats fre- quent the beset, and are to be found in fair numbers in Nairobi, Limurn, and other localities. gitatV, Look For Nasal Catarrh a It sustains and cheers itttarazigaiiivilftmitaxalftszatatuggio UR LETTER FROM TORONTO WHAT IS 1"NTERESTINC THE PEOPLE OF THE CiTY AT THE PRESENT TIME. The New Candidate for North York—Dr. Ross to Investigate Freldmann Cure —Women's Police Court. Hon. W: L. Mackenzie Xing, at un athas es anda resident of this city, been nominated as the Liberal candidate to North York, has seen more of the lime. light of public We than perhaps any other man of his years in Canada and unless all signs fail he will continue to attract attention for a good many years to come. Mr. Icing is a grandson of William Lyon Mackenzie, his' mother, who is the wife lof Mr. John Icing, IC. C., one of the lea Hirers at Osgoode Hall, and a particular authority on the law of libel, being the 'aughter of the `patriot" of 1837. There " is no doubt that Mr. Sing inherits some lef the qualities of bis famous grand- father. He has, for example, undoubted ambition for public service. He has spent all his life in public positions. First he was in academic work, where he made a special study of industrial conditions. This seemed to give him qua- lifications for the Department of Labor, which was at that time being establish- ed at Ottawa by Sir William Mulock. To this field he was therefore transferred, later resigning the position of Deputy Minister of Labor to enter the burly burly of active politics and to become a member, as it turned out, of Sir Wilfrid Laurier's Cabinet. The defeat of the Gov- ernment in 1911 and his own porsonal de- feat left Mr. Xing without employment. Will Stay in Politics. ' For the present he has decided to stay in the political life. He has a reputation as a public speaker and as a writer and as he has no family it is comparatively easy for him to follow his inclinations. In the, graces of public speaking Mac- kenzie Icing has few equals in the coun- try. He has a splendid voice and excel- lent delivery. which cannot help but be impressive.

The surest cure consists et breathing in the healing balsamic esiences of CATAIIRHOZONE, which Is simply a medi- cated vapor so full of rich curative pro- perties that every' trace of Catarrh van- ishes before it. "The soothing piney vapor of Catarrh - ozone is the most powerful medicine I ever used," writes Mrs. Edmond S. Chris- tine, of Saskatoon. "Every breath drawn through the Inhaler Bends a grateful feeling through the air passages of the nose and throat. Catarrhozone cured me of frightful headaches over the eyes, re- lieved me of a stuffy feeling in the nose, and an irritable hacking cough that had been the bane of my life for a year. My general health is greatly improved, my appetite and digestion are considerably better than before. Catarrhozone has been the means of giving me such health as I always desired, but never possessed." Even though catarrh has a firm hold on you, and affects your throat, nose or ears, you can thoroughly cure it with Catarrhozone.

Extracted Teeth of One Worlanan Contained Quantity of Lead. A tendency of the teeth and gums to absorb lead hag been observed by Victor Hinze, a German dentist, among the workers in an accumu- lator factory. The teeth all had much tartar, and that scraped from the teeth of one man affected with anaemia and other symptoms of poisoning was found by analysis to contain about one-half of one per cent. of metallic lead, 1xtracting the seventeen -teeth stili retained by this man, -the ire- tal!ic lead in the crowns was shown to, be 0.0038. per cent. and 0.033 per cent, in the roots—sufficient to give continuous lead intoxication.. The tartar was removed from.the teeth of the other workers o..ntl this was followed by marked improve- ment in the condition of gums and general health. •I;1 ' A Borrowed One.

The old Standard Bank building hag been en- tirely renovated and as far as the inter- ior is oonrerued, practically rebuilt, and no expense has been spared do the fur- nishing. Carpets and curtains have been made abroad specially for the Club, and this with the other fittings, give an air of considerable luxuriousness. Attend- ants in levee breeches are on guard in the hall and an occasional critic might be found who would say that the atmos- phere was not entirely democratic. How- ever, these in charge have believed that whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing right, and they have spared no pains. There are somo twenty bedrooms available for out-of-town members. Women in Police Court. As a result of the activity of the Local Council of Women and other Women's or- ganizations, women's pollee court cases are now heard separately and in private. The males who have to attend police court are grumbling because the women's oases are disposed of first, and that keeps the men waiting. It is also claimed by critics of the innovation that the lack of pub- licity which was aimed at for the wo- men is not being accomplished, because, while the oases aro heard in private, there is more publicity than ever while going to and from the court. The women's or- ganizations who scarred the experiment seem to be well pleased. Most of the Ta- male offenders in tho police court are not deserving" of much consideration, but oc- casionally a case comes to light which they claim amply justifies any trouble the separate court causes. skI Three Thread Princes Dead. It is a remarkable fact, that, within the last twelve months, three members of a family, which has built up ono of the greatest com- mercial enterprises in the world, have died, leaving millions of pounds to their heirs, and swelling the British exchequer to the extent of close upon £1,000,000 in death duties. The •story of this family— the Coats, of Paisley, Seotland— who have made many fortunes out of cotton thread, furnishes a etrik- ing romance of modern industry. lighter elements of humor on which many political leaders have based great suc- cesses. While he has great ability, there are those who maintain that he has the faults that often go with ability of this type. They tell a story of his campaign in 1911 in North Waterloo, which is pro- bably not true, but which indicates the nature of the criticism that is made of him. Ile was speaking at one of his own meetings before a friendly audience and was denouncing in round terms some act of one of his political opponents. His audiencewas being carried away with him and one enthusiast burst out, "Who. done -'flat?" It is”related that Mr.' Sing paused to say, `I presume my:friend meant to.. stiy who, did that." As int mated, the story is probably untrue. in North. York. " The other day the Canadian Club had Mr. Xing address it on . the Navy ques- tion. As evidence of the interest in the subject and in the speaker, one of the largest crowds in the history of the Club turned out to the meeting. The speech was frankly partisan and was enjoyed or criticized according to the convictions of the individual listener. The speech illu- trated Mr. Xing's strength and his weak- ness. In other words, he was in spots ef- fective and in other spots unconvincing. North York in which Mr. King has now raised his standard has been a historic fighting ground between political parties for generations. It has been often repre- sented by a man prominent in the coun- cils of his party. This and the fact that Mr. Xing's grandfather used to represent the constituency almost a century ago may help his candidature, though it must be pointed out that generally North York is one of those constituencies that shows a partiality for a member who supports the party in power. To investigate Friedmann's Cure. With characteristic 'enterprise the To- ronto General Hospital has delegated Dr, 1 , W asespend several weels8 in New lurk investigatnig 'ihe 'riedmann ure for tuberculosis and making observations on the progress of the tests now being carried on there. Immediately on his re- turn Dr. Ross will make a report for the local institution. The hospital au- thorities and the Province generally aro to bo congratulated on being able to se- cure the services of Dr. Ross, who has made a specialty of the now treatmont for diseases inwhich line Dr. Friedmann's euro seems to follow. Dr. ]toss' report may therefore bo expected to be authori- tative and give the Province the very last word on the subject. Front the latest in- formation obtainable there is a disposi- tion to believe that there is a good deal in Dr .Friedmann's cure, and that while it may not accomplish all that has bean claimed for it, it may mark a great step forward in conquering the "w]Iito plague." Final conclusions must, however, he de- layed until there has been an oppor- tunity to observe the treatment and make a report on it. Ontario Club In New Hoene. The Ontario Club has gone into its mag- nifleent new quarters at the corner of Jordan and Wellington streets. The On- tario Club is the Liberal Club, organized two or three years ago with a twofold purpose: First, as a rendezvous similar to other clubs, and, second, as a home for Liberalism in a city in which Liberalism is in need of care and attention, and such as the Albany Club has furnished Conservatives The Ontario Club started out by taking over the premises formerly' occupied by Sample free if you write Natiotlal Drug & Chemical Co. of Canada, Limited, Toronto, Pikrosirif 7' ,e..i i:hin, mer, I 11. 1 ' t Ian ®vilYldt�3.a �5.I I ,ii soap Iitllhtll pulp m l u„u„ pf entri ,,ya,- er, ni11 hluptlnuueu I �p"gnnslUllll� 1 re ooI g paint 11 IIoIlutlo'IIIIIll' ,I1 1o'I ,_IlIIILI �^ tial. i & hl4FSlpl Ill I'I I l 1 111111 IIIII�UII�IIII III etoss' uuunll II lllpl III dull a I�lp” I' pn�lu{� 9 in for I11111111qulglprlp111 till m 5111811 I1811111011 �� !many ofheeipto3es E1� IL ETT e^' O i l r—AN lad Y l I ED TRONTO,ONT. over during the process of moving.

One of the most singular ideas ever involved in the moving of houses was recently put into prac- tice in West Somerville, Mass., when a large three-storey dwelling was cut in two and moved from an eminenoe. ten feet above the street level and :set up a mile distant from its . former resting place. It was found impossible Ito move the house' in its entirety. The.cut..was made squarely through the centre, and as the house was built in a very, sym- metrical manner each half was an exact counterpart of the other. After bracing the house, first one section and then another was moved to the new location with jackscrews and rollers. On. bringing the two re -united divorced portions to- gether they dovetailed in such a perfect fit that it was impossible to discern the separating cut. As each of the sections was 35 by 20 feet at the base and almost 40 feet in height, they were apt to topple a 1 0 ' WS HoGv1 SPEED is the Washer for a Woman In the first place, Maxwell's "Champion" is the only washer that can be worked with a. crank handle at the side as well as with the top lever..
