courage when occasion demands them.
Two or three years ago his brother,
the late crown prince, while at the rid
ing school, was violently thrown by
his horse and stunned by the fall. Don
Manuel leaped upon the horse and
galloped off to the palace, where, his
parents being absent, he gave rapid
and sensible orders. Then he awaited
the queen, who was expected from her
afternoon drive, and broke to her the
news Of the accident with great care
80 that she would not be alarmed.
During the recent terrible events
which placed him on the throne he
also showed astonishing serenity and
courage, throughout endeavoring to
give support to his mother, whom he
adores.
The horror, however, Of the tragedy
and the consciousness of the deep re.
sponsibilities that have fallen on him
SO unexpectedly appear to have utter
ly transformed his boyish nature.
Those who are in contact with him
say that the king has aged ten years
in appearance and in mind since Feb
ruary 1, and that he gives the i'm.
preston that it is no longer boy
who is speaking, but a man.
Every day he orders all the daily
newspapers of every color to be
brought to him and, shutting himself
in his study, he pores over them for
hours in the endeavor-as he himself
explains-to judge of the situation OF
the country he governs and find out
the wishes of his people.
Only a few days ago someone al
the palace, noting the fatigue which
is only too visible in the young king
due to the excess of work and contin
ual audiences and ministerial confer
ences, gently demonstrated with his
majesty, urging him to intrust some OF
the matters of secondary interest tc
others. Thus it was suggested that
perusal of the newspapers might be
avoided by daily report. The young
monarch answered quietly: mo; while
I have life and strength left me to dc
SO l will read them myself. One Of
my chief duties as king is to have per

lie opinion in all matters day by day
and that can only obtain directly

London.-If young King Manuel con-
tinues as he has begun, the stability
of the Portuguese monarchy should be
assured for some time to come.
1t is an undoubted fact that the un.s
skillful policy and retrograde meas
lures taken during the dictatorship had
aroused widespread irritation and pro-
duced considerable increase in re-
publican ideas in the most cultivated
centers of his country, especially Lis
bon and OpOrto. On the other hand,
however, the extreme youth of the
new king, the terrible misfortune
which has fallen on him, the excellent
intentions manifested by him since the
very first days of his reign, have at
tracted toward him the good will and
sympathies of his people, without ex-
ceptions of class or opinion. The re-
suits of the recent elections tend to
prove that the present liberal and toll
Grant monarchy has regained the
strength and prestige which it had
unfortunately lost during the last
reign through the errors and impru-
dence of many successive ministries.

smart under correction. although some
of us may be clever enough to conceal
the smart; hence, the fewer mistakes

A person speaks of having done a

the trivial error? Stanch friendships
