Usino a Kinq as an Advertisement.

When p. T. Barnum invited the king
of the Sandwich Islands to show in
the city of New York he was not sat
isfied with that, which was itself an
advertising card. but he managed by
advising the king to step with him-in
one Of the chariots-SO as to see better
a certain part Of the performance-to
hurry it up in a moment Of confusion
and sweep the king around the entire
circuit of the track. The papers the
next day had n notice of the king of
showmen and the king Of the Sand
witch Islands in a chariot race. He
could not have written as good an adj
vertisement as the racy news item
made. 1t was a neat exploit, for.
small as the kings kingdom was. his
sense Of his dignity as n monarch was
not small, and only by indirection and
on behalf of supposed different mo-
tive could he have been induced to be-
come part of such spectacle.
