The bootblack is s personage of

“ I have often been amazed at the
number of bootblacks thronging all
the public squares. It is title that
the modern Athenians seem to re­
joice in having their boots polished
at all odd minutes, but even so 1
wondered what could be the special
attraction that drew so large a pro­

“ wise men” tried to persuade the
king that this was treason, for which
the child ought to be put to death,
but Jethro replied: “ It is the set

Let two pistes be set before him,

with the reconstitution o f the army
and the rise of the line regiments,
that the recruiting sergeant first be­

Tannyson ami Sightseers.
Tennyson’s well known aversion
to sightseers and their ways gave
rise to many an odd experience.
Once, it is said, be complained to
Queen Victoria, saying that he
could no longer stay in the Isle of
Wight owing to the tourists who
came to stare at him.
The queen, with a kindly irony,
said that she herself did not suffer
much from that grievance. But
Tennyson, taking her literally, re­
plied in the same strain. .
“ No, msdsm,” said he, “ end if
1 could clap a sentinel wherever 1
liked 1 should not be troubled
either.”
