and as he was her first she looked up

loss to find a name for him Relatives
and friends, including her mistress,
were appealed to; but, although many
names were suggested, all were dis
carded.
After many days Of elaboration she
said one morning to her mistress: ''Miss
Mary, Fze found name for my boy.
I'm going to name him Delicious"
why" said the lady, where did you
get that name!'
"Oh," she cried, I'm going to call
him that cause I want to name him
for Mr.. Grant
When it was explained to her that
the great hero was named Ulysses and
not Delicious, she was somewhat dis
turbed III mind, but Ulysses did not
please her, SO the boy had to begin life

prince of Wales, sometimes visited AL

Pope, after expressing the most dutiful
professions of attachment, gave his
royal highness an opportunity of OBJ
serving very shrewdly that his the
poet's) love for princes was inconsist-
ent with his dislike for kings, since
princes may in time become kings. Said
his royal highness:
Mr.. Pope. / hear you don't like
princes
''Sir, beg your pardon"
"Well, then, you don't like kings"
"Sir must own that like the lion
best before his claws are grown"
