Avenged the Slight.


A rich Prussian banker who had
bought his title of Won" by some
means or other managed to squeeze
his son into a regiment of the guards.
Once admitted. he was OF course treat
ed by the other officers as one Of them
selves. One day the banker gave Il
splendid dinner. to which he invited
through his son ali the officers Of the
regiment save one. a very nice fellow,
who, however, w:;s not coble, having
no aristocratic Won pretiyed TO his
name.
All accepted the invitation, perfectly
unconscious that one of their number
had been so badly treated. When, how
ever. they took their seats at the table,
the absence of their comrade was inn
mediately noticed. Some one remark
ed the fact to the host. who said in 4
loua voice. 'Ah. you see. we are going
to be entire nous tonight. a really Sc
lect party, you know
Then we must not disturb you.
said the senior officer present. rising
from his chair. and one after another
the guards,ren solemnly filed out Of
the room. thus amply avensins the
slight to which an officer Of their regi-
mcnt had been subjected.
