MR. GLADSTONE's FATHER.
He Conducted Large shipping Business
IL LiYerpool.


The decision TO confer the freedom OF
Liverpool on Mr.. Gladstone recalls the fact
OF his fathers connection with that city.
Ii came about in this way: Thomas Glad
stone tn grandfather OF the Premier, was
a corn merchant at Leith, and he commits
stoned his eldest son, John Gladstone CwhO
became father of the Prime Mipister), 10
go to Liverpool to sell cargo OF grain
which had arrived at that port. His con
duct and business capabilities attracted the
attention Of Mr.. Corrie, a leading Liverpool
cCn merchant, and he became an assistant
in the house Of CorTie & Co.
By-and-by John Gladstone was made
partner in the firm, and there is a story told
by Mr.. Barnett Smith Of how on one occa-
sion he did a sharp stroke Of business. The
corn crops were failure in Europe, and he
was dispatched 10 America TO buy grain.
He found matters as bad in America as in
Europe, and no corn was to be had Twenty
four vessels had been engaged to carry the
grain 10 this country and it soon became
known that they would have TO return in
ballast. This meant ruin to the firm, but
Gladstone took In the situation very quick
Iy and decided that at all hazards the
ships must not sail empty. He examined
the American markets, ascertained what
merchandise was likely to prove acceptable
in Liverpool. and managed 10 fill the holds
of all the vessels. The result was that the
credit Of the house was saved and only
trifing loss incurred.
After sixteen years the partnership Of
Corre, Gladstone & Bradshaw was dis
solved. and John Gladstone who continued
in the business, took into partnership his
brother Robert, and very soon the firm had
a large West and East Indian connection
in the course of time all the seven sons of
Thomas Gladstone, Of Leith had settled
down in Liverpool, and the firm, which was
known as John Gladstone & Co., was the
first TO dispatch a private vessel to Cal
cutta
Later Mr. John Gladstone began to take
n great interest in politics and in local mu-
nicipal matters. He was also n warm adj
vOcate Of Greek independence and enlisted
the sympathies and support, among others
OF Lord Byron. He finally entered Parla-
ment. and was made n baronet by Sir Rob
ert Peel in 1915. Long before this his Eel.
lowtOwnsmen and friends in Liverpool had
presented him with a magnificent service
OF plate ''to mark their high sense Of hi.
successful exertions for the promotion II
trade and commerce. and in acknowledge
ment Of his most important services rend-
cred 10 the town Of Liverpool" The Prime
Minister was born at Liverpool in 1909.

library, knuckles right down Ia his poor,
pusillanimous way. gets down on his
marrow bones at the word Of command

is his own.
He acts just like some human beings
that / know, and when an elephant gets
down to the level Of the lords Of crea-
ton" l. for one. feel tempted to de
spige him"
1t is great fun to drop peanuts into the
nose holes at the end OF Tips big trunk
and then watch the old fellow try to get
hold Of them for use IN that sweet tooth
OF his. 1t is fun for you but death 10 the
elephant. Such twitchings and turnings
and writings and puckerings OF that
appendage as he seeks to get hold upon
the tiny ground nuts are enough to cure
a case Of chronic dyspepsia and TO cure
one Of the blues for evermore.
But perhaps it is as well 10 limit your
offerings TO peanuts and cake and the
succuent apple of commerce. DO not
monkey with tobacco unless you are
weary Of life, for accidents will happen
in the best Of families and It is UNI
pleasant to have even an elephant fall
down on YOU"
