who has never been further than Is miles
beyond the walls of his capital, SeoHl.
In those eastern countries, like China
and Korea, to be ruler means to be shut
I'D in a palace, seldom leaving II, ana
when a ruler does go outside it is only on
some great and important journey, when
all the business in the streets must stop
and everybody get out Of the way. Only
once has the emperor of Korea Travelled
beyond the walls of Seoul. Thattlme ne
visited the graves of some ancestors 10
miles away One would think h q ruler
could leave his palace whenever he
wished to, but it is not always so. as we
have seen. Only five times a year does
the ruler of Korea go outside his palace
prison. Then he goes through the main
street of Seoul to visit the temple.
The emperor does not even know the
streets of his capital. He thinks he does.
On the days he goes through the main
street it looks like a nice wide street. That
is because it has been cleaned up for his
coming. On other days it is rowded on
either side with street pedlers and their
goods. He does not know that all the
other streets are narrow and dirty.
AS n would think, being emperor OF
Korea is not ell fun. He became ruler
when he was II years old. Then. how
ever. he became only a king, for that was
what the rulers of Korea were called at
that time, which was 1864. He was not
the son of the king who had died and
whose place he was taking. The old king
had no sons, so they took this boy, who
was his nephew. Now. boys, OF course,
are not able to rule countries themselves,
so they did just as they did in Spain when
the present king was a small boy-cnose
| some one to rule for him until he should
be old enough to do it for himself. In
Spain. it will be remembered, the boy S
mother was what is called the regent. In
Korea it was the boys father. Tai Wen
Kin was his name. He vas said to be a
wicked old regent. He tried to drive the
foreigners out of the country, and wouil
not stop until some other nations maze
him. Little can be told about the king
az a boy because little is known about
him.
In course of time he became really king
but he had to pay money to China no"
and then, as China claimed to have charge
of Korea. Afraid that bad men might
want to hunt him as they did his wife
whom they killed, he sleeps in the day
time and is awake at night. Once he was
Obliged to run away from the palace ano
hide for safety. 1t was partly abou'
Koreathat Japan went to war with Chlns
in 1895, and beat her. Then the little
king would no longer pay money t'
China, and he told the other countries O
the world that his country was an empire
and he an emperor. 1t is clear that tn

There was a man who had read that it

The rain later turned to sleet and the

And the next morning the ~nelghbors
were astonished beyond measure at the
sight of a frenzied man with his head thrust
out of a second story front window OF that
house. gesticulating wildly to a boy on the

TWO VERY SMART PARROTS
One. Called Polly, Chews Tobacco n
the Other Is Afraid of Old Glory
When It Waves.

Within a birdseye view of the Eagle
Office at Brooklyn, N. Y, are two as
remarkable parrots as could be found
in years of wandering. One chews to-

owned by Henry E%berhardt, who runs
a lair dressing establishment IN the
savings bank block at the corner or At
lantic avenue and Clinton street. she
~rejoices in the simple name of Polly"
and never occupies a cage, except at
night. All day long Polly can be seen
on an open perch through the big plate
glass window on Clinton street. In
the summer time Polly flies just out
side the window when a thunder storm
comes up and greatly enjoys a shower
bath. Polly, although nine years old,
has never made an attempt to escape,

goods store at 100 Court street. He is

butter and sunfiower seeds regularly
and has walnuts and cranberries for
d~elicacies. He does not like the water
except TO drink, and battles only under
compulsion. Some years ago he was
