WANTED FRESH AIR. Th Klnf of Anain Broke a Cntom and Created a Panic Not long ago there was terrible ex citement at tho royal court of Anam. Tho king, Thauuh-Tai, who was then 14 years old, wu missing. Etiquette re quires that the Anamese king shall never leave the royal grounds. Ho is a knightly prisoner. Burfcthe young po tentate wa not hard to find. Though he wa a king, ht was a boy, and it is nat ural for a boy, when he ha some mon ey in hi pocket, to want to get ont and spend it. Thut was exactly what the king of Anam had done. Entirely alone he had started on a "shopping" expedition through the streets of Hue. Of course no ono knew him because he had never shown his face iu public. He was sim ply u boy, like any other boy, andVhis was exactly what he wanted. But hovus treated with great respect by the Bhopkoepers, because he seemed lo have plenty of money. Curiously enough, the thing which seemed to at tract him most was a head shearing wa chino, or hair clipper, and when the frightened nobles of the court discovered him at last it was with this singular implement in hi possession. He had already begun an attempt to experiment with it on tho lieuns oi sev eral smull street boys, who were prov iug rebellions subjects, when the cour tier approached him, prostrating them selves upon the ground und making alarmed outcries. The king no longer goes out shopping, but ho retains hi hair clipper as a sou venir of a happy day of freedom with the street boys. Pittsburg Dispatch. Old Shoet For New.

Therefore every native works seven day in the week. Brother Gobel admonished the people of the sinfulness of Sabbath breaking, but he was unable to convince them, and it grieved bis heart. ' Passing from his home to his place of preaching one Sunday he found a dozen men or more engaged in building a bouse. He stopped to talk with them and entreated them to cease their sinful labor.
