A Grief That Was Overcome by Sense of
Being HOnOred.
Many of the old country emigrants
do not wish to give up their castle
servility when they reach this demo-
cratic country, says the New York
Times. The young wife of man who
has extensive coal interests in Penn
sylvania told some friends the other
day of a recent experience in this re-
gard. Soon after she reached her new
home, among her husbands mines, the
child of a French digger died. Her
husband, as was his custom, sent for
the bereaved parent to offer any assist
ance under the sad circumstances.
''There is nothing 1 want,' said the
man, ''only," and he fumbled his hat,
''that milady should come to the
funeral. If this will happen the grief,
which have to lose my child will be
lightened in the honor which 1 shall
have to write to my parents in France
that milady was there" Such touching
Difference, of course, was recognized
and ''nilady'' went down to the little
cottage on the day of the funeral
When she went in the father sat with
bowed head at the head of the coffin.
His eyes, however, were furtively
watching the door, and the instant she
appeared he stood up. A look of pride
that he could not conceal spread over
his face. With great respect he con-
Quoted her to his own place and she sat
there, the man standing motionless at
her side through the service.
