To the last cate- . gory belongs the man who on one -« occasion came in actual contact with " the German Emperor. _ His Majesty was returning to Pots Adam, dusty and weary, after a long tramp, when he asked a peasant, who ' was driving a farm cart, to give him a ’ lift. He eyed the travel-stained stran- ger suspiciously, and not liking his looks, whipped up his horse and drove away as furiously as he could. Two hundred yards farther on he met a. . soldier. - “What did the Emperor want 0 '. nu?" asked the latter. “1 don’t understand,” the peasant answered. And when the other ex- , plained who the wayfarer was to whom .' he had refused a seat in his wagon, he j was so alarmed that he again lashed j up his horse, and in the twinkling of : an eye disappeared out of sight. _ When, a year or two ago, the King v rt Spain visited a small town outside Madrid, he joined in the crowd that ' thronged the streets to catch a glimpse u of.himself. When the news passed through that the King was coming, a shrill female voice just behind him : lrritably exclaimed: “Let me get in front! l’ve walked all this way and spoilt my T- best black dress for nothing? I want - to see what the boy is like!" Turning round with a smile, King .‘ Alfonso remarked to the pushing, per- .- spiring old lady: "Here is the King.” After looking him up and down the ' woman said: "Well, of all the cheek and impu- :dencel Why, the King is a. goodâ€"look- .;fing young man, and even your own mother couldn’t say that of you." German Prlncess As all the world knows, the Crown 'Princess of Germany takes no little interest in women and their.work. 'Once she applied in person at a lead- ing firm of Court dressmakers for the ‘_post of model, which she thought would be just the thing for a protege rot hers. » “I came,” she said to the manager, """bccause I saw your advertisement, :and I thoughtâ€"" The manager laid his hand on her shoulder; “My, dear girl,” he said kindly, “l’m sorry, but it is no good, you are ignot quite goodâ€"looking enough. But 'you have a pleasant face, and I'll tell ; you what I’ll do. Come again in a month’s‘time, and then I’ll see if I can find you a place as junior sales- ' "WOman." The consternation of the good man .nri discovering the applicant's identity .was only equalled by the tact of the Crown Princess, who soon made him .forget his discomfiture in admiration (of her charming manner. Queen of Italy It is singular that a Customs offi- ' rial, of all people in the world. should "fail to recognize the features of his king; yet this actually happened quite recently when the King and Queen of ltaly were crossing in a motor-car one "of their own frontiers. “Where do you come from ?” shouted «the official, in the sternest of tones. “From Modane,” faltered his Majes- ."y. “And where is the number of your war?” “There is none, I believe. “Aha! And so you would enter ‘xlta’y? New, what’s your name, sir?’ “Victor.” V “(30:39, come, no trifling; ‘l’our otlrcr name?” “Eur amel.” “Your praicssion?” it was no good; the King must out. "I have hitherto enji-ycil the reputzr tion of beng the only Victor Banner;- uel in my ou'n kingdou‘..” The official wiihcred away, but no doubt was taught a muclrwantcd 1e: .son in dealing with travellers. ’) what is King of Wurtemburg Another motorâ€"car story has to do "’31 the King of Wurtemburg. Driv- round his small kingdom one day, !“s "ajesty stopped at a wayside res- aatzratzt. He paid for his refreshments, and added a coin for a “tip.” “Well,” exclaimed the young wo- man, agreeably surprised, as she looked at the money and then at the generous donor, “one can see that you are not a Wurtemburg, anyhow." ‘K‘.
