come dim and his ears deaf. When he sat
a. the dinner-table, he could hardly hold his
spoon, so that sometimes he split bis soup
on the cloth. His son and daughter-in-law
were much displeased at this; at last they
made their old father sit in corner behind
the stove, and gave him food in a little ear

could eat. and he would often look towards
the table with vet. yet longing eyes.
One day his shaking hands let the little
dish fall, and it was broken. The woman
scolded, but he said nothing; he only sighed.

on heir "talents, very few in number

bears His Higbness has the entire right OF

cedes the train to keep the track clear and
look out for any imperfections in the road
that would jeopardize the safety of the train
containing the Prince and royal retinue.
The agent of The Prince, who is cousin
to him on Albert's side, arranges al his

board the train except those necessary to

When the bargain was made with the Su-
perintendent of the Little Miami road TO

enieavored to incorporate in the contract
that the Superintendent should ride on the
front car and when there was anything OF
interest to be seen on the road, to go back

him why he did not get up. lie esid it
