PRINCE WOUNDS HIMSELF CHARLES OF ROCMAXIA SAD OVER LOVE AFFAIR. Efforts of Queen to Separate Him from Bride Given as Rea son for Act. PARIS. June 11. Crown Prince Charles of Roumania is suffering from a bullet wound in the leg, self-inflicted, according to news reaching )aris. The wound is not regarded as serious. The crown prince's act, which has caused a sensation in Bucharest, is said to have been prompted by the king's insistence that the prince make a six months' trip to Japan to forget Mile. Cecilie Lambrino, the girl from whom he was forced by his royal parents to obtain a divorce because she was neither titled nor wealthy. The queen has done her utmost to divert Prince Charles' mind from Ce cilie by trying to interest him actively her charitable works, but Charles is still deeply attached to his former wife and has frequently been seen in her company. She lives in Bucharest and recently gave birth to a child which started gossip about the succession to tne throne, the heir to which some say is Prince Nicholas, who is studvinir In England, the crown prince having, ac cording to report, renounced his succession. The crown prince created consterna tion in Roumania royal circles last year by marrying at Odessa Mllp rwilio (Zizi) Lambrino, the daughter of a re tired major in the Roumania army. For this escapade King Ferdinand ordered that he be given 75 days solitary con finement, "for absenting himself with out leave from his garrison." All ef- torts at the time to have the crown prince leave his wife were without avail.

I just stuck to that Tanlac until every single one of mv troubles were entirely overcome, and there isn't a man in. tnis whole country who enjovs better health now than I do. I work hard every day. and have .-such a fine appetite that I can hardly wait for meal time to come. Everything I eat agrees with me, too, and I am never bothered, with indigestion or sour stomach.
