Prince NapoIeon's Boot Maker.
1From the London Tnleoraph


q dlyertlng story, humorously illus
tratlve OF Prince Jerome Bonaparte' s
proverbial thriftlness, has recently gone
the round of the Partisan newspapers.
1t appears that during the latter part of
his cousins reignthe Prince became dis
satisfied with his boot maker, and for
mally withdrew his custom from the
arti st, who continued, nevertheless, to
orn ament the front of his shop with the
attractive inscription: "Purveyor to
his Imperial Bigness, the Prince Napo-
leon." Noticing this delusive announce
ment one day, as hedrove past the shop.
Prince Jerome sent a member of his
household to the boot-maker with posi-
tive orders that the inscription should be
forthwith removed. AS, however, he
subsequently found that his commands
had been disregarded, he took legal pro-
ceedings against the boot-maker for I'M
lawful and mendacious advertisement
OF his (the Prince's) patronage. The de-
PENDANTS counsel, in the course of his
pleading, endeavored in the following
ingenious manner to show cause why his
client should not be compelled to with
draw the offending inscription, arguing
that such decision on the part of the
court would infallibly rusult in serious
prejudice and loss of boot-making.
For he observed, "hitherto passers-
by whose attention was attracted by the
announcement in question stopped,
entered the shop and bought boots
freely of my client. And why did they
so? Because they had already said to
themselves, Prince Napoleon's boot
maker That must be a good workman;
and an uncommonly cheap one into the
bargain. We viii give him trial. If
you force him to remove the inscription,
the peripatetic publicwill certainly infer
that he must have raised his prices, and
will hurry past his shop with averted
eyes" The boot-maker, it need scarcely
be added, was cast, but one cannot help
regretting that so humorous a plea
should have been disallowed by French
tribunal.

has the merit of being true. On the
afternoon when he was to make an i'm
portant motion in the House of Com
mons friend, happening to call on him
between two and three o'clock, found
him just sitting down to make some
notes of the coming speech. He laid
aside his pen and talked for while, then
jotting down few heads on paper, went
down to the house before four o'clock,
found himself drawn into preliminary
controversy of very trying nature, In
which he had to repel so many questions
and attacks that it waspast SIX before he
rose to make the great speech. He then
discovered that, as he had left his eye
glasses at home, hisnotes were PARTIALLY
useless, he put them quietly back into bis
coat pocket, and delivered with no aid to
his memory, and upon that one hours
preparation, a powerful argument inter-
spersed with passages of wonderful pas
sion and pathos, which lasted for three
hours, and will always rank amongst his
finest efforts.

When Stockings were invented.

| Few of the ancients wore stockings.
The people of the northern nations were
the first who had hose or trousers. Their
stockings were made of pieces of cloth
sewed together. 1T is not known in what
country the art of knitting originated.
The discovery is claimed by France,
England, Spain and Scotland. Some be-
heve 1T had its origin in the latter coun-
try, as late as the sixteenth century.
The invention is also attributed to a
Span1ard, on the strength of Mezeral,
who asserts that silk stockings were worn
by Henry L., of France, at the wedding
OF his sister, In 1859; but before that Ed
ward VI. had graciously accepted a pair
from the merchant prince, Sir Thomas
Gresham, who imported them from
Spain, the land where they were first
manufactured: The story goes like this:
A loyal grandee, the happy possessor
OF one of the finest pairs in Spain,
thought he could not do better than to
present the novelties to his queen, and
to that end placed them in the hands of
the first minister of the crown, greatly to
the dlscomposure of the modest man,
who astonished the mountaineering
noble by returning him his stockings,
and bidding him remember that " the
queen of Spain had no legs" Queen
Elizabeth of England, not ashamed to
own that she had legs, received similar
gift in very different manner. In the
third year of her reign, Q561) her silk
woman, Miss Montague, rendered her
as New Years gift pair of black silk
stockings-the first of the kind made in
England. Elizabeth lost no time in put
ting them on her limbs, and was SO
pleased with the result that she sent for
Miss Montague, and inquired where she
procured such comfortable foot-gear,
and if she could get any more of them.
81 made them very carefully on pur-
pose only for your majesty" replied the
silk-woman, land, seeing these please
you so we'll, will presently set more in
the hank "Do So" said the queen,
''for, indeed, I like silk stockings SO
well, because they are pleasant, fine and
SO delicate that henceforth [ will wear
no more cloth stockings"

An Anecdote of Gladstone.
lFrom Scribner's Magazine.l

The man is more interesting than any
of the parts he has been called to play;
but we come to understand the man bet
ter by seeing how he shapes and molds
these parts. Asan orator, bis conspic-
uous merits, besides his striking coun-
tenance, dignifed action, and a voice
full, rich admirably modulated, are fer
tility and readiness. He seems to have
always at command an inexhaustible
store of ideas, reasons, illustrations,
whatever be the subject which he is
required to deal with. OF all great En-
glish speakers, probably no one, not
even William Pitt, has been so indepen-
dent of preparation. Even Fox, swift
and rushing as he was, was great only
in reply, when his feelings were heated
by the atmosphere of battle, whereas
Mr.. Gladstone is just as animated and
forclble In an opening, or in a purely or
namental and contentious harangue, as
in the midst of parliamentary strife. Oh
the many anecdotes that are current
illustrating his amazing power of rising
to an occasion, one may be given which

Baby's Bow Leqs.
tribunal

These need not cause anxiety in all
cases. It the child is healthy, and has
good, nourishing food and pure air-the
two great essentials for making pure
blood-it Will probably outgrow its bow
legs naturally enough as it's strength in
creases. Rubbing the legs with your
hand in the morning may help to
strengthen and straighten them, hold
ing them straight as you rub them. If
the case is pretty bad, the two legs may
be bound together with comfortable
bandages during sleep, rubbing them
well before and after binding them. If
the child Is still quite young, it may be
kept from standing on it's feet for few
months, giving nature time to straighten
the crookedness while the limbs are
growing stronger. A carriage and high
chair are helps toward carrying out this
plan. All the things that have been
mentioned as curative agencies may well
be used as preventives. A healthy
child, without wholesome food, and
pure air to breathe, if kept from stand
ing and walking while too young and
weak, will not have bow legs. Scrofu-
lous children are more likely to suffer In
this way. and those that are very heshy.
Don't take pride in your fat baby. TX
cess of fat is really disease instead of
a sign of good health. Fatten your pigs
as much as you fancy, but do not de-
iberately fatten your children. Give
them plenty of good growing food, and
they will be plump enough for symme-
try and not too heavy for comfortable
activity. 1t is no wonder that the little
legs bend under the heavy weight OF
some fat little toddlers. Such children
should not be encouraged to stand OF
walk until they have grown strong
enough to do so of their own accord,
and then should not be allowed to walk
too much.

THREE DRUMNIERS.

Three drun1ners went drumming out into the WesA
Out into the West with "prices down"
Each blew of the sample that paid him best,
And they blew from one end to the other Of town.

When prices weak,
And jaw must be sup

Yet they at the ssbar" stood grooming.
Three drummers stood swearing from hour to hour
They'd made not sale in the whole wide town;
They at their luck and they raved at the tmos
Their names were Robinson, Jones and Brown.
For jaws must wag
When prices weak,
And jaw must be sup

Yet they at the Z" bar" stood grooming.
Three corpses hung limp from their sample bag

Their sample-bag straps and their prices down;
Three bosses are wailing their trades mishaps
And the loss of Robinson, Jones and Brown
For laws can't wag,
And useless is cheek,
When drummers in thousands
Go through In week,
And stand at the rum-bar grooming.
