There was some further conversation,

"By the way, colonel, we are just
going to take drink Will you join

The old gentleman hesitated, cleared
his throat and then replied
"Well, Douglass. have made it an

A Story of bismarck.

The following anecdote is related Of
Prince Bismarck, and whether true or
not Is good enough to be repeated; While
waiting IN the emperor's antechamber
one day the prince heard music coming
from the imperial nursery. He there
fore entered and found the young crown
prince amusing himself at the piano
while his younger brothers were dane
ing. The children at once seized Uncle
Bismarck and insisted that he should
take a turn at the piano. Prince Bis
marck complied, and in the midst Of
the fun the kaiser entered. He watched
the scene for Il moment and then said,
"What, prince, are You already making
my children dance to your tuner"
