GEORGE " NO GENTLEMAN.

We Said So Once, md at Another Time He
Proved 1t.
When Lord Liverpool was forming
his ministry in 1922, he thought it alb
solutely necessary to have Canning at
the foreign Office, although aware that
the appointment would be obnoxious to
George ". The Duke Of Wellington
undertook the unpleasant task of COM
munioating Lord Liverpool's determi-
nation.
AS soon as the king knew what was
wanted of him he broke out: Arthur,
it is impossible. said, on my honor as
a gentleman, he should never be one Of
my ministers again. I am sure you will
agree with me that cannot do what /
said on my honor as gentleman I
would not do. -"
Another man would have been ST.
fenced, but the great soldier, always
equal to an emergency, replied:
pardon me, sir, but I don't agree
with you at all. Your majesty is not a
gentleman.
The bold assertion startled the king,
but the duke went on, your majesty is
not a gentleman, but the sovereign Of
England, with duties to your people far
above any to yourself, and these duties
render it imperative that you should
employ the abilities of Mr.. Canning"
"WeIl, Arthur, said the king, draw.
Ing a long breath, eff must, must.
Although he did not like being told
he was not gentleman, George " had
once, at least, while regent forgotten he
was one. This was when he flung a
glass of wine in Colonel Hamlyn's face.
with "HamIyn, you are a blackguardW
The insulted officer could not return
the compliment without committing
something like treason-it was out Of
the question to challenge the prince,
while to let the insult pass unnoticed
was equally impossible.
The colonel filed his glass and threw
the contents in the face of his neighbor,
saying, His majesty's toast, pass it
onl"
"Hamlyn, " cried the regent, you're
capital fellow Here's your health. I"
And they were fast friends from that
evening. -New York Advertiser.
