The King Of Anam Broke q Custom and
Created Panic.
Not long ago there was terrible ex-
element at the royal court of Anam.
The king, Thanah- Tai, who was then ii
years old, was missing Etiquette re-
quires that the Anamese king shall
never leave the royal grounds. He is a
knightly prisoner. But the young po-
tentate was not hard to find Though he
was king, he was a boy, and it is nat
ural for boy, when he has some mon
ey in his pocket, to want to get out and
spend it.
That was exactly what the king of
Anam had done. Entirely alone he
had started on Shopping expedition
through the streets of Hue. Of course
no one knew him because he had never
shown his face in public. He was SIM
ply boy, like any other boy, and this
was exactly what he wanted.
But he was treated with great respect
by the shopkeepers, because he seemed
to have plenty Of money. Curiously
enough, the thing which seemed to at
tract him most was head shearing ma
chine, or hair clipper, and when the
frightened mobiles of the court discovered
him at last it was with this singular
implement in his possession.
He had already begun an attempt to
experiment with it on the heads Of sew
eral small street boys, who were prov
ing rebellious subjects, when the cour-
tiers approached him, prostrating them
selves upon the ground and making
alarmed outcries.
The king no longer goes out shopping,
but he retains his hair clipper as SOU
venir of happy day of freedom with
the street boys.-Pittsburg Dispatch.
