its parents, or that 1t knows every
thing. 1t may think its father and
mother know everything perhaps
that all grown-up people know every
thing; very certainly It is sure that
1t does not. And 1t is always asking
questions. and wanting to know more.
Well, that is the first character of

know that he knows very little: to
perceive that there are many above
him wiser than he, and to be always
asking questions, wanting to learn.

well who wants to teach, or governs

old saying (Plato's, but I know not

Worthy of Great Monarch
King Of Sardinia's TactfuI Manner o
concealino Kindness Done to
Impoverished Follower.

Tho King of Sardinia. Charles Al
bert. was very kind and obliging to
the French royalists who were at
Turin. The Duke Of F.. with whom
he was connected. had an employment
about the court-he had been severely
wounded, and lost leg in the affair
of the Three Days. The king heard
that the duke was anxious to visit the
king and royal family at Prague, but
that his finances were not favorable to
so long a journey. His majesty. there
fore, thought of an expedient which
would enable the duke to crafty his
loyalty, without his feelings being
wounded.
Duke" he said. would you do me
the favor to choose some horses for
me in Bohemia; and as your best way
will be through Prague, of course, you
will pay respects to the royal family
there"
The Springfield herald., 1912-11-15

Eric all right. and that is about half
the reason why I led my men back
here-I wanted to find out II he was
hiding about the old place. Is It true
you haven't seen him?"
to suppose him IN the Jerseys at this
time"
Grant remained silent. probably not
wholly convinced that he was being
told the truth, and yet not venturing
to state openly his suspicious. How
ever the other said no more, and final.
ly the Ranger felt compelled to an.
swer.
"Of course" he explained rather
lamely. IT couldn't altogether blame
you for concealing the boy II he had
shown up here. but you will realize
that as a Kings officer l have a seri.
GUS duty to perform"
you would apprehend Eric? Would
betray him into British hands! Is
that your meaning. Captain Grant7
What else could I do? Don't be
unreasonable! Boy as he is. no one in
all that crew of ragamuftins has done
US greater harm. Again and again he
has learned our secrets and brought
Washington information Of our plans
How he does 1t is the mystery Of this
department-Howe has personally Of
fered thousand pounds for his arrest
Surely you know that. Last night
thought we had him In our power. but
the very devil seems to protect him
from capture, even when luck brings
him fairly within our grip"
And 30 you came here to search for
him?" l could feel the bitter scorn
In the voice. "In his fathers home!"
Il certainly did," angrily. II shall
search the house from cellar to garret
before leave"
But you are on parole"
Damn the parole. What do care
for a pledge given to a band Of plum.
dering outlaws7 And what do l care
for Eric? He chose for himself. and
has no right to expect any mercy from
me, and by all the gods, he'll receive
none. half believe that attack last
night was his planning. and that now
you have him hidden away here"
And you propose searching the
rooms?"
"I do. II you had been a little more
