No Fun Being n King.

Speaking of the boy king of Spain, a
correspondent of the Congregational
list says: There are many points in
the court etiquette of Spain that make
it hard to be a boy king and harder
still to be the boy kings loving mother.
AS he was born king little Alfonso
had to have household of his own,
with his own suite of rooms. He cannot
even dine at the same table with his
mother, nor can she perform for him
those tender little Offices that mothers
delight in and children find so comfort
ing. The little king has to go through
with tedious state receptions, which
weary him sadly and sometimes try his
childish patience beyond endurance.
Once at grand church function the
baby sat upon his nurses knee, all
dressed in white, as patient as baby
could be. A bishop had been holding
forth for a good hour, and every body
was doubtless waiting for him to close.
At last the little royal listener could
bear it no longer for he is a high
strung little man, and with a glance of
indignant despair in the direction of
the tallSer, he clutched at his party
white hat and cast it upon the floor.
When his mobiles were paying their
compliments to him on his second
birthday their king entertained himself
by jumping up and down the steps of
his throne"
