KAISER AS KINGS GUEST
POLITICS AND POLITICIANS.
Upon Arrival the Emperor
and Empress will Pro
ceed at once to
sor.
The Visit of Emperor William to Eng
land Next Month is Fraught with
the Greatest Interest, Both
Personal and Poli
tical. (Special to the Argtjs.)
London, Oct. 18. The -visit of Em
peror William to England next month
is traught -with the greatest interest,
"both personal and political. For years
there has been a barrier of prejudice
between the two countries, but this has
been considerably lowered by the di
plomauy of King Edward and his min
isters. It is hoped that the barrier
will entirely disappear as a result of
the coming visit of the Emperor.
Upon their arrival the Emperor and
Empress will proceed at once to Wind
sor, where they will stay during the
whole of their sojourn, except for a
state visit to London, where they will
be officially welcomed by the Lord
Mayor. It is expected that the break
fast that will be served at the Guildhall
on this occasion, together with the
street decorations, will cost not less
than $20,000.
The duty of extending a welcome to
their Majesties will fall to Sir John
Bell, who is soon to take office as Lord
Mayor of London. The address of
-welcome will be contained in a costly
gold, box. The ceremony will take
place in a large pavilion to be erected
in Guildhall yard, which will be flank
ed by galleries for the accommodation
of privileged spectators.
The Emperor will have at least three
days' shooting in Windsor park, ac
companied by King Edward and the
Prince of Wales. A command theatri
cal performance will take place in the
Waterloo chamber, while there will be
a State concert, and also a State ban
quet in St. George's hall. The apart
ments at Windsor Castle to be occupied
by the imperial visitors have been lav
ishly decorated and renovated under
the personal direction ot the King.

MAN AND HIS HAT.
WHISKEY WAS NOT THE CAUSE.
Fairbother in Everything.
A young man named Ben Taylor.liv
ing near Asheville, filled himself full
ot whiskey and his friends seeing his
helpless condition started to take him
home. They took him most all the way
and left him to continue the journey.
When near his home he fell across the
tracks ot the railway and a passing
train cut him into pieces.
Taylor was one of the young gentle
men who could drink or leave it alone.
Generally speaking, however, he never
left it alone, and finally when death
came ii caught him loaded.
Pretty hard lines for a young nian to
be cut into pieces by a locomotive but
harder yet to know that it was caused
because he was so drunk he couldn't
walk. But he. never blamed the booze.
He always could drink or leave it alone,
and that is the caee with all the young
men we know today.
Radium Effaces Birthmarks.
New York Times.
Two ot the foremost physicians of
Paris, Drs. Wickham and Degrais,
have created a sensation at the Acad
emy of Medicine by a report on their
discovery of a method of removing
birthmarks by the action of radium.
Such marks have hitherto been believ
ed tq be indeliible. The new method
has proved equally successful in the
case of adults and children.
The marks are effaced by the sim
ple application of a plain surface cov
ered with varnish containing radium.
The action is regulated by th length
and frequency of the application.
A series of watercolors exhibited at
the academy showed the gradual dis
appearance ot birthmarks subjected to
the treatment uutil not the slightest
trace of the disfigurement remained.
The application is absolutely painless,
the treatment may be applied to an in
fant during sleep.
The observations upon the relation
between the character of the man and
the revelation- of that character by the
way in which he wears his hat, which
have been made in print recently by
Professor Gross, of Leipsic, are espe
ciully interesting at this time, when
the leaves are falling, admonishing
man" that at any moment the frost may
nip the straw which even now has be
come, in outward appearance at least,
a disreputable companion.
The German scientist's researches, it
is true, were in the domain of crimin
al psychology, and he treated of the
manner of wearing the hat and not of
the character of the liead cover, but
suggests fiurther research, which when
it shall be extended may be expected
to add even more to the world's enter
tainment if not to its stock of known
facts.
Professor Gross declares that a hat
worn perpendicular to the vertical axis
of the head is a sign that a man is up
right fai character, but a pedant and
sometimes a bore. Those who wear the
hat a little on the right side are said to
be amiable, gentle, and humane; those
who wear it on the left are fond of
games and sports, and usually of gamb
ling. The hat on the back of the head
is said to be a proof of recklessness and
daring and usually of debt, and the
further back it is the nearer the wearer
is to bankruptcy or jail.
According to Prof. Gross, a hat that
is worn well down on the forehead in
dicates the egotist or a man of sulky
disposition, in which selfishness is the
dominant trait. If the hat is worn
lightly on the top of the head it means
that the character of the man is flue
tuating, variable and impressionable;
if the hat is large and firmly adjusted
it means a keen sense of business and
energy of action; if the same hat slopes
to the rear it means that the wearer is
alive to all business opportunities and
will miss none of them.
The professor also has a chapter on
boots. He has" observed that a man
who wears down the heels of his boots
or shoes equally may be safely set
down as an energetic man of business
or a trustworthy official. Heels worn
on the outer sides are said to reveal im
agination, poetic instinct and an ad
venturous spirit. If they are worn
down on the inner side it shows the
wearer to be weak and undecided in
character. Moreover, the professor
adds, this last sign is more to be relied
upon in the case of men than of wo
men, as the high heels of the latter
"often divert whatever physical signi
ficance they might otherwise have."
A wi ie field for speculation is opened
when we shall begin to inquire why the
man wears a hat of a certain sort and
of uncertain age. Wider, perhaps, be
cause at this point there is ushered in
the corelation of the sexes which may
have, in some instances at least, im
portant bearing upon the question.
Given the sum of the man's income
and the cost of the headgear of the wo
men which must be brought therefrom,
we should be able to ascertain with
reasonable accuracy why he should be
wearing the sort of hat he is and, per
haps, in the opinion of the curious but
not wholly informed, he should not be
There may be found, too, an intimate
connection between the contents of the
man's stomach, which .in the interest
of science might perhaps properly be
determined by analysis, and the sort
of hat he was wearing. In view of the
present price of eatables and drink
ables, it is very likely that there shall

BURNS RELIC COM
ING TO AMERICA.
His Admirers Regret That Another Relic
of Robert Burns is to Depart for
America.
By special wire to The Argts.
London, Oct. 17 Admirers of Robt.
Burns have learned with regret that
another relic ol Robert Burns is to de
part from British shores to America.
R. G. Knowles, the American comed
ian, has purchased from the collection
of the late Prof. Kirkpatrick, of the
Edinburgh University, the famous
Burns' mug and will take it home
with him to the United States. The
mug was inherited by the late profes
sor, and it is an authoritative fact that
it was the favorite drinking vessel of
the great Scotch oet. It is made of
block wood, encircled with three brass
bands, and has a wooden handle. The
capacity of the cup is about a quart.

Of the vast multitude of women Dr.
Hartman cures annually, only a small
per cent, of them consider it necessary
to write to the Doctor at all.
Not one in a thousand of these for
tunate women report their success. Of
those who do write testimonials, only a
very small per cent, are ever used in
public print.
While it is not affirmed that Pertma
will cure every case of this kind, it is
certainly the part of wisdom for every
woman so afflicted to give Peruna m
fair trial. Her chances of relief are so
many that any woman would be doing
herself an injustice to neglect such
an opportu- nity of relief.
