4 Little Too Much.

The celebration of the carnival, as
the last days before the coming of
Lent are called in European coun-
tries, reached its highest and gayest
point in Paris during the old mon
archy. Everybody went into the
streets, to be pelted with confections
and to have q mad time generally.
Aroyal prince, the Duke of Orleans,
wishing to take part in the merri-
ment, put ON fanciful garments and
went out with his friend Dubois.
Nov" said the prince to Dubois,
''in order that my identity may not be
suspected, you must not treat me as
if were Il prince, but, on the contra
~, with familiarity.
Very well, monseigneur, said Du-
bois
They went out. The fun grew fast
and furious. and Dubois. in the midst
of his other familiarities, .ventured
actually to kick his royal highness.
Hold on" said the PRINCE, with a
groan. stop that You're dlsguis-
ing me too much !"-Youth's Com
