A Mistaken Method.

A STORY comes from England that
rather taxes our credulity. 1t runs that
the third son Of King George, Prince
Henry, a boy IN his teens, now at pre-
paratory school, is allowed only the pit
iful sum Of s.. 30 week pocket money.
He, as a matter of course, finds this in
sufficient and has been forced to attempt
TO supplement it by questionable means.
He first applied to his parents for an
increase Of his allowance. His father
seemed inclined to grant il, but his
mother, who seems to be the head Of
the family, promptly refused. The boy
them bethought him Of financial ex-
pedient that was stroke Of genius He
had, of course, various letters from his
parents and other members of the royal
family; he was well aware that these
had value for collectors of autographs
and he proceeded TO sell some Of them.
He received $50 for the letters and was
for time happy. But the King and
Queen heard Of the transaction, ent the
$50 to the purchaser and demanded the
letters, which were, of course, promptly
returned. The budding financial genius
was informed that if he could not make
the sum Of 81 30 suffice for his needs he
would be taken from school and placed
back under tutor as he had been be-
fore.
Some comments on the affair have
been favorable TO the course Of action
followed by the royal parents This ap-
pears, in our humble judgment, to be a
mistake. Instead of teaching the boy
habits of economy and self-sacrifice and
bsgetting Spartan simplicity" of con-
duct, the apparent tendency is exactly
10 the contrary. 1t will cause the for
nation Of habits Of extravaganza foster
ed by the possession of funds clandes-
timely obtained, and will develop in the
boys makeup eraftiness, deceit und de-
ception instead Of that frankness and
sincerity that are perhaps his natural
traits.
