a queer sound through her nose. Anna

Frederick William rose from his
seat and to the occasion.
"B-a-a light" he says, smoothly.
1t was then that Miss Lucy became
displeased. She decided to give a
writing lesson. There was something
soothing and practical about a writing
lesson, and Miss Lucy gave one when
ever she grew weary of teaching the
young idea how to shoot anywhere
within ten feet Of the bulls eye. Also
in its peace she generally found time
to mark the roll. So, while she waded
through names that were a snore only
to succumb to those that were a
sneeze. Frederick William, who had
tendency to shorthand, laboriously
copied upon his paper the fact that
''Bby loves mmma."" He had gotten
to the fifth assertion OF Bby's devo-
ton when he felt a prod in the back.
and he knew it was Anna.
Anna was the girl who sat behind
him. She had a Polish and imposs-
IDLE name and Miss Lucy called her
Anna Karenina for short. She never
wore more than one garter at a time
and it was always a blue hair ribbon.
Moreover, Anna Karenina was dirty.
1t may have been the exclusiveness
reflected from a royal namesake, or
only the natural snobbishness of a
soapsudish upbringing, but Frederick
William did not like Anna. Once
when he had no little boy to march
out with, she had taken him by the
hand and led him, red and ashamed.

event that will live in the boys
memory.
In many instances, however, the boy
ignores his opportunity to secure some
thing like naturalization for himself,
and chooses to receive his prize at the
hands of his mother. He then turns his
back upon the mayor, the faculty of
the University of France, and upon the
Academic Franchise, and descends to
the audience with his professor at his
heels bearing his prize.
There the prize is finally bestowed
upon him by his mother, who en-
