Eff-PEROR wuuan AT sous. .â€" lconolay In Some Departments and Ex- fravugnnre In lulu-n. Not that the German Emmi-or Would be c-Jmmunplaute anywhere. His mysterious outl-ursts of rage: his offi- cially contradicted illness or Him-sacs. and his genius for selfâ€"advertisvment would bring him into noti e wherever he was. But though we hear so much about his love for show in publir. few people know how simpie his privab: life is. Yet itis afart that agrr-xt deal of the solemn etiquette of the ordinary court life has been done away with. the staff reduved in several ways and. there have even been economies in the kitchen. The officers of the guard have to put up with beer instead of champagne. It is true the menu at the Emperor's table must be in Ger- man now. not French. but the aristoâ€" cracy generally have not follovmdsuit. There are things even a German lim- peror cannot do. ‘ But any one who sees the royal ital- ace knows that the stories of extra- vagance are true. Restoring it was the work of three months. and ex ery- thing that the best of science and art and the tax-payers money could do was done. Those three months turned out a palace that ECLIPSES IN SPLENDOR almost. any other in the world. The apartments that the present Emper- or uses, are those between the “Pillar Hall" and the "Star Hall," or "Star Chamler." whichever we would call it in English, only in this case the stars are in the ceiling. But perhaps the most magnificent is the front hall, the Treppen Hallo. which faces the l’al- ace'Square. A view can be had with- out opening- tho doors, for they are each of one immense pane of glass. and even in the daytime the white and gray marble covering the walls is effective. At night it is a marvellous sight, the electric light flooding the hall, the marble balustrades, and the (red carpet on the marble steps. You: pass down these botwien colossal mir- rors on either hand. and the Star Hall is directly in front. it is here the regimental colors are used as orna- ments for the walls on a. background of red damask. The panelling is done in rich rococo work. The Emperor's and Empress's pri- vate apartments are near the Pillar Hall. which also faces the Palace Square. There is a. private entrance and a public one for deputations and so on. One gets as good an idea of the general extravagance from the Emperor's workshop. or study. as any- where else. True. there areth writâ€" ing-tables. the leather-covered fiu‘ni- ture, and the bmlcshelves. but the cell- ing is in splendid while-and-gold roco- ro workâ€"done in Frederick the Great's timeâ€"and LATE IMPROVEMENTS have been made in the same style and golor. The walls are in dark olivcand old brorade. Here the inventions are EMILIO. pictlu'es painted. dismissal ofl rabincts signed. and telegrams com- iosed. It will be an historic room. l‘lic Emprcsss private rooms are also very fine. Iler receptionâ€"room has more of the immense mirrors, and the walls one panelled in grcenishrgray marble. Yet she hcrself is the ordi- nary German Ilausfrau. and is whab she has been from her girlhoodâ€"a no.- nontity. All these apartments have been lyâ€" ing unused for many years since the time of Friedrich Wilhelm III.. in fact. The court life in public resmnblesihah of most other countries: the dinner is the moat noticeable difference. it lasts barely threeâ€"quarters of an hour; courses come and go like lightning. and. [LS at Napoleon's table, a man who gives too much time to talking may find himself extremely hungry when it is over. One of the great enterâ€" tainments is the timeâ€"honored ball at the end of the Carnival. Where as many as twelve hundred chsts have bee-n invited. The waltz is the prin- cipal dance. and the minuet was latcly introduced. The Emperor and Em~ press just join in one quadrille. but. lllv.‘ hill is for them more of a big re- ception. they make their rounds of the guests in the "White Hall” before dancing begins. 4 _ . o ‘ =â€" E _-.II I II I , _...._.__ _..._.__â€".â€"â€"-â€"â€"- It's a small thing. but when you! liiink that most people drink it at each meal. and some [roplo drink two _or three cups each time. you can readily we it is most inn ortnnt tlzat you drink pure li-u.

CAN KOOTENAY CURE RHEUMATISM?‘ This is a question which has agitated the minds of thousands of Canadian citizens. The answer is contained in the testimony which comes from all parts of the country, from all classes of people, and never before in the medical history of Canada has there been such a popular flood of testimony as that which has poured into the Ryckman Medicine Co.’s offices at Hamilton during the last year. Rheumatic sufferers who have doctorcd for years with the best physicians, and under- gone hospital treatment to no purpose, declare themselves cured by Kootenay. Limbs that have for months a: a time been warped and twisted by the fetter: of rheumatism are released by the action of Koofenay Cum The :ncw ingredient which enters into its composition reach“ the old stubborn and chronic cases and leads the way to speedy recovery, causing discerning physicians who have watched its cures to admit that it is a “miracle worker." Read the testimony in which flit convincing ring of truth is scaled by sworn statements. It is the onlytruc cure for rheumatism on earth. HAMILTON. I, Mn. Isuzu. Smxvm, residing at 65 Walnut Street South. in the City of Hamil- ton. County of Wentwortb. do solemnly declare: That last tell my little boy. aged five and a half years, was attacked with rheumatism and also nine in his back and kidneys. He was nna le to Itand and could not get out of bed without assistance. His tailoring was terrible, and although. he had medical treatment he got no better. was so severe It times he would almost faint. His up tits left him and he grew very weak. A at this time we heard of “ Rychlan’s Koolena Gun," and com- menoed giving it to Inn, with what results I am pleased to all you. Since taklng the T1108 first bottle of medicine he has not bad a pain, never complains, and is as healthy 3. boy as one could wish for. He has gained flesh and plays hard all day. and in my opinion is completely cured. Young as he is the boy himself appreciates the medicine. and I heartily recommend it to anyone auflering from rheumatism or kidney trouble. I lawn. Suntxvm, Sworn to before Notary T. F.
