the low stone garden coping. A sweet

But Robbie did not heed. He did not
cry, but his heart seemed bursting with
childish grief and disappointment.
He did not blame the "fellers." oh.

Now they had gone on their way.
They were far off by this time. and all
that was left of the gay procession
was a lonely little boy huddled face
downward on garden step, with an
aching leg and eyes that smarted with
the effort to keep back the rising tears
He was such little fellow, and it was
such a bitter. bitter disappointment to

Suddenly there was a clatter of a

Rudeness Rebuked

An English squire of the eighteenth
century once entered a private room in
an inn clad just as he had dismounted
from his horse--booted and spurred,
wearing a muddy riding cloak and car
rying his hunting crop in his hand.
He made great noise and buster in
his entry, and the intrusion naturally
offended the occupants Of the rOom--a
nobleman and some ladies.
The nobleman, however. bethought
himself Of a neat way of rebuking the
country boor.
He rose and made him very cere-
monious bow. saying politely at the
same time: Sir. let me thank you;
these ladies are vastly obliged TO you"
What! Why?" blurted out the
squire.
For not bringing your horse into
the room as Well"
The squire withdrew abashed and
heneeforth learned TO restrain his rustic
lack OF manners in public.
