A Courteous Prince.

"Do not be afraid, Louis" said the
Empress Eugene, holding her son in her
arms.
II am not, mamma, answered the boy
OF IL; Il have not forgotten that my
name is Napoleon"
The cutter in which the empress and
her son were being conveyed at night
from a steamer had struck rock, and
the waves were dashing over it at the
time this conversation took place.
The young prince, who afterward lost
his life in the war between the English
and the Zulus. had one trait not common
to children-he treated his playmates
and all who served him with marked
courtesy. The favorite companion Of his
sports was Louis Conneau, the son Of the
emperors physician. They were daily
together, and many storms ruff1ed their
intercourse.
One day, when there was to be state
dinner at the Tuileries, at which the
prince was not to appear, he invited
Louis Conneau to dine with him. Both
lads were very fond OF straw berry cream,
and the prince. in order to give an agree
able surprise to his playmate, requested
that dish to be prepared for the dessert.
During the morning the two boys
quarreled. and Louis Conneau returned
home. The prince. too proud to show
any emotion at his playmate's departure,
took his seat at the dinner table and
tried to eat But when the straw berry
cream appeared his self control gave
way. The tears rolled down bis cheeks,
a. he said to a servant:
Take the cream to Conneau, and tell
him haven't the heart to eat 1t without
himr'-Youth'sC Companion.
