of Kaiser's Son.
BT ARTHUR N. DAVIS.
(Dentist to the Kaiser for 14 Tears.)
I first saw the Crown Prince profeS'
ionallv in the Spring of 1905, a few
months before his marriage. He was
then 23 years old.
He came into my office, I remember,
with a copy of "Life" in his pocket,
lie took it out and opened it and
showed me a cartoon of himself which
apparently caused him considerable
amusement and which, he said, he in
tended showing his family.
There were two beautiful rings on
his left hand and he wore a wrist
watch, although at that time wrist
watches were used almost exclusively
by women. He seemed to be bright
and auick. but by no means brilliant.
He asked me if I had seen any mem
bers of the court lately, and I told him
that the Kaiser's court chamberlain,
Count von Eulenburg, had been to see
me the previous day.
Tm not surprised he has to go to
h dentist: he eats too much!" the
Crown Prince declared. "He can't ex
pect to have good teeth; he's always
eating. As lor myseir. J. eai very uiwo.
I want to remain thin. I hate fat
neoole."
The Crown Prince and I did not get
along very well at that time. Apart
from the fact he was such a physical
coward that it was almost Impossible
to work on him satisfactorily, he
seemed to have no Idea of the meaning
of ifti appointment.
Prlaee Reeklesa Driver.
He would agree to be at my office
at 9:30 and I would plan my day ac
cordingly. At about 1 he was apt to
call me up to say he would be on hand
at 11 and he would actually arrive
about 13. This happened several times,
and I told him that I couldn't have
mv work broken up In that way.
After seven or eight visits at that
particular period I didn't see him pro-
lesslonally for some ten years.
Shortly after his last visit to me,
190S, Princess von Pless told me that
she had just met him and had told
him that she was on her way to my
office. "Well. I hope I'll never have to
aro to a dentist again as long as I live,
he had declared emphatically; "I hate
dentists!"
While the Crown Prince seemed to
respect military requirements, he paid
little attention to the civil regulations.
He was the despair of the traffic po
licemen and the taxi drivers and pri
vate chauffeurs, as were also the ival
ser's other sons. They all insisted upon
driving around safety sones to the left
Instead of the right and usually came
within an ace of colliding with other
cars. The Crown Prince was a reckless
driver at best. On one occasion he was
going so fast through a city street
that his car climbed the sidewalk and
he crashed Into a lamp post. His car
Was smashed, but he escaped Injury.
I'rrma Publicity Coarted.
I saw him on several occasions stop
Ills motor or pull up his horse for the
purpose of giving a coin to a child or
seedy-looking passerby on the street,
a form of ostentatious charity which
appealed very strongly to him. Among
other qauHties which he Inherited
from his father was a love for posing
In public He never allowed an oppor
tunity to pass to make a favorable
Impression with the people, and one
read almost daily of his various actlvl
ties. Either the representatives of the
German press must have been omul
present or the Imperials press agent
was unusually efficient. On one oc
casion, when still quite young, the
Crown Prince rode his horse up the
hundred steps of the palace at Fans
Eouci. not a particularly difficult feat,
but the newspapers and magazines
made all they could out of it.
Although I did not see the Crown
Prince again professionally until 1915.
the Crown Princess came to me In
1913, and from that time on paid me
more or less regular visits. She was
a woman of great charm and intelli
gence, and although she was more Bus.
sian than German in 'her Ideas, and
for some time after her marriage was
rather generally criticised on that ac
count, she soon became extremely pop
ular and today is very much admired
by the German people.
Priaee Sileat War.
In her youth much of her time had
been spent on the French Riviera and
she had found French associations and
customs more to her liking than Ger
man. When preparing for her nuptials
he spent more time in Paris than she
did In Berlin, most of her shopping
being done In the French capital. The
complaint was freely made that a
French trousseau was hardly appro
priate for the wife-to-be of a German
Crown Prince.
I noted that the Crown Prince seemed
to be vitally Interested In his per
sonal appearance and in otker trivial
things which one would have thought
he might very well have ignored in
those serious times. He was still as
fond of jewelry apparently as he had
ever been, two new rings which he
wore affording him much satisfaction.
He showed me a new wrist-watch at
tached to an elastic-linked bracelet, of
which he seemed to be very proud, and
asked me what I thought of it- It
was more on the order of the wrist
watches worn by ladles than of the
military style which is favored by army
men.
He talked about a new two-seated
roadster which he was driving and was
very much elated over a new raincoat
he was wearing. In fact, before he
left that day. Princess August Wllhelm,
lier sister, ITincess Carollna,of Schles-wig-Holstein,
and several 'ladies-in-waiting
had assembled In my salon to
wait for him. and when I was through
with him he put on hlsc new raincoat
and walking into the salon, strutted up
and down in front of the ladies, inquir
ing how they liked the cut of his new
Mat. The war seemed to be about the
last thing on his mind.
War Cauldered a Joke.
During his various visits to me I
tried to draw him out a little, on dif
ferent aspects of the International sit
uation, but the Ideas he expressed were
not of much moment.
"The allies think we will run short
of man-power." be said on one occa
sion, "but we've got 2.000,000 youths
growing up and we'll soon be able to
put them in the war. There's no dan
ger of our running short of men. but,'
really, I wish it were all over. This
war is a lot of damned nonsense, you
know!" He talked as if the two mil
lion growing-up youths of Germany
were created for the Hohenzollerns to
use as they pleased.
Another remark he made which In
dicated bow sadly he misconstrued the
epoch-making significance of the great
war in which the whole world was
involved was quite characteristic.
"With so many men at the front,'
he said, "the men at home ought to be
having a fine time with the women
eh, what? Do you see many good
looking girls In Berlin now"
The whole situation appeared to the
Crown Prince very much in the light
of a joke.
"I've Just come from the western
front." he told me. "My men are up
to their knees in water and mud.
We've been having lots of fun pump
lng the water out of our trenches into
the French trenches.
Priaeesa Deplores War.
"Well. I suppose the French pump it
right back again, don't they 7"
"You're quite right, quite right That's
exactly what they do. Really, it's a
great lark."
In marked distinction to the Indiffer
ence of the Crown Prince to tha hor
rors of the present war was the atti
tude of the Crown Princess. She fre
quently expressed to me the sorrow
she felt for all the wounded and the
surviving families of the killed.
After the sinking of the Lusltania
I told her that it looked as if that
tragedy would bring the United States
into the war.
"It isn't that serious, is it?" she
asked.
"Yes. Indeed," I replied. Tt will be
difficult now, I imagine, to restrain
Americans, and I would not be at all
surprised If war were declared without
further negotiations."
She looked somewhat startled, I
thought, but the next time she called,
some two days later, she was all
wreathed In smiles, and said that my
fears were ill-founded. There would
be no declaration of war between
America and Germany. Two or three
days later came Germany's agreement
to give up her ruthless submarine
warfare. Evidently she knew whereof
she spoke.
That her Information was not al
ways based on such sound foundation,
however, was Indicated later on when
war eeemed Inevitable. Again she
was most optimist!) and I sought to
elicit from her the grounds for her
assurance.
Pablie Criticisms Feared.
"WelL there's one thing you seem to
overlook, doctor," she answered, very
wisely. "There are no less than 20,-
000,000 German-Americans, or Ameri
cans of German antecedents. In your
country. Their Influence will be suf
ficient, you may depend upon it, to
avert war between the two countries.
They will take care that America never
declares war against Germany, x t
haven't any doubt about it at all."
After diplomatic relations were
broken off between America and Ger
many, the Crown Prince and his fam
ily ceased coming to me. They were
afraid, no doubt, of public criticism.
although the Kaiser was not.
Prince Adelbert the Kaiser's third
son, was a very handsome and charm
ing man. He always came to me at
tired In a naval officer's uniform. I
saw him but a few times, as he was
seldom in Berlin, and he never talked
on matters of general Importance. I
never saw him after America entered
the war.
Prince August Wllhelm, the fourth
son, was perhaps the most democratic
of them all. He sometimes came to see
me in an ordinary taxicab and he was
the only one of the Kaiser s sons whom
I ever saw In civilian dress.
In January. 1918. In speaking of the
part that America would take in the
war, he mentioned that his officers had
told him that 60,000 Americans were
on the western front. "We don't be
lleve It, howevesj" he added. "How
could they get there without our know
lng it? Our U-boats would certainly
have found it out. No, Davis, it's not
true."
When he said "We don't believe it
he undoubtedly meant the Kaiser and
the High Command. Unquestionably,
they have long since realized how un
reliable was their Information.
Priaeesa Louise Charming.
The Kaiser's only daughter. Princess
Victoria Louise, was the first of her
family to come to me outside of the
Kaiser. Very peculiar rumors were cur
rent about her when she was a girl
and they persisted right up to the time
of her marriage. It was said variously
that she had a cleft palate: that she
was tongue-tied; that she was a deaf
mute; that she suffered from other
physical deficiencies.
I was very much Interested to find,
therefore, that none of these rumors
had the slightest foundation. She w
a most charming young woman, always
acting most graciously toward me. She
reminded me of the Kaiser more than
any other of his children. Shortly after
the war started I asked how long she
thought It would last.
It can t be over too soon for me,"
she replied. "I have a husband and six
brothers in it, you know; but I'm afraid
It will last a long time." '
On one of her last visits to me she
came with her husband, the Duke of
Cumberland, who said he would like to
speak to me privately.
I took him Into an adjoining room.
and he asked me not to tell any mem
ber of the royal family that he had
been to see me.
I was rather surprised at his request.
but of course agreed to comply with
bis wishes.
"Tou understand, don't youT Not a
Ingle member of the royal family!
he repeated, as he kissed the Duchess
good-bye and drove away.
The mystery of the incident was
cleared up a few days later when an
opera singer who had been a guest at
Braunschweig, the seat of the Duke of
Cumberland, told me that while he was
inging at the local opera-house there
there had been a great demonstration
In front of the Duke's palace. The
crowd demanded that the Duke return
to the front at once.

Present Allowance Measures Six and
Two-fifths Teaspoon fuls Daily.
People Mast Modify Taste.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ngton, Aug. 4. Ever since the Food
Administration announced that the
United States must go on a sugar ra
tion of two pounds per person per
month, people have been endeavoring
to estimate how much this would be
per day measured in teaspoonfuls.
For the information of those who de
sire enlightenment on this subject, the
Food Administration has measured a
two-pound allowance and finds that
this quantity will make six and two
fifths teaspoonfuls level full dally.
When it is remembered that this six
and two-fifths teaspoonfuls. daily must
Include the sugar used In the prepara
tion of food as well as for the sweeten
ing of tea and coffee and for cereals
and fruit, it will be evident that many
people will modify their taste for
sweets or will find the regulations of
the Food Administration a source. of
irritation.
It will at once be apparent that this
supply of sugar will be entirely insuf
ficient to meet the needs of the aver
age family, even if present use be con
siderably curtailed.
The restrictions on the use of sugar
do not apply, however, to the use of
other sweetening materials. If syrups
and honey be used largely In cooking,
the six and two-fifths teaspoonfuls per
person will. It is believed by the Food
Administration, be found entirely ade
quate for any person except one whom
it designates "the sugar glutton."

Make-' That Weak
roe
N THESE trying days we need
every ounce of strength and the
-ability to do a full day's work every
day. The man or woman with weak
kidneys is half crippled. A lame, stiff
back, with its constant, dull ache and
sharp, shooting twinges, makes the sim
plest task a burden and a full day's work
impossible. Headaches, dizzy spells,
urinary disorders and an "all worn out" feeling are daily sources of distress. You can't afford
to neglect kidney weakness and make it easy for gravel, dropsy or Bright's disease to take you.
