ope dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages and

thing to do is to build up the

She Has 4,000 Godfathers.
Princess Irene of Prussia is bet-

godfathers than any other woman
in the world. She can boast of no
less than 4000 godfathers, and how
she came to obtain so many is a
pretty story. When she was born
the war’of-1886 was drawing to an
end, and, peace being concluded
just at the time of her christening,
her father, Prince Henry, of Hesse,
requested all of the officers and men
of the regiments of his command

daughter, whom he named Irene

he will very shortly concede a simi-

ferred carries no extra pregroga-

entitled to be addressed as “My
