Now Monarch's Ncct Rebuke to Oveizcaloui Priesi King Leopold of l:( Igluin merry old soul had a caustic wit. Ou one oc casion when he v: ' j t his chalet at Ostein), the parish p;iesi approached him ami asked for a pi hate word with lilm. When tip? two were alone, the priest began to read Leopold II a long sermon : ".Sire, I am profo :: dly grieved," he said. "There Is a rumor, I am sorry to nay, that your majesty's piivufe. life Is not marked b the austerity auit ed to the lofty and difllctilt task which Cod has laid upon ih, nmnurelm of this earih; Itemembcr. .:!;(., that It be hooves kings to s' l an example to their subjects." For 20 mlniiles the king listened pa tiently to the utterances of the good mnn, until, the priot desisted from want of breath, relates Kvelyn Orahnm (In Ids authorized biography of Kin;; Albeit, nephew ot l.eopoiu). "What n funny thing, Monsieur" b Cure," Raid the king.

"Thought this was your morning out." he went on to explain. lllUaheih'a mother, hearing her fa tiler's voice, put a Hushed face In the doorway lending from the kitchen and tared at the two, Mr. MacN'IchoU laughed nervously, "Fact Is, children" W tried to speiU lightly "I'm a back number. Had to Klve up my Job to a younger fellow.' "Oh, grandpa!" came from both in a chorus. "Why, why, you're the youngest mail I know," defended 1 : 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 . prlnglng up and putting her arms round her grandfather's shoulders. "I know, child. That' the way I feel, too; but the railroad gay I'm old." "Oh, oh. It's cruel!" Mrs. Whedcr cried out. "It'a life, Mary. We've go( to face It." He tried to be philoo( h.cal and treat the matter lightly, but It was a ruiher trnklc breakfast the three had together. After breakfast Jun MacMchols. or t'ap'n Jimmy, a he was a.Tectlonately called by Id friends, went up lo his room and stared at himself In the mlr ror. Was lie old? lid be look old? There was u dreary little droop to hU mouth that be had never wen there before and a thousand wrinkle' seemed to have appeared over night. Strange, he had neu-r imtleod all that before; tiiose luaiks of age slui ply weren't there before. A the day drugged by MacNichoN grew more and lame depressed, lie wandered about the house bunting for aomcthlUK to do. o would hang around Mrs. Wheeler In the kitchen and dry the dishes and try to pure the potatoes. lle'as probably In the ay an I she merely tolerated him In the hope ef cheering him up. He felt theli syiii pat by and chafed under H. They were pitting him, he knew It; they were o sorry sorry for him! Several time be slipped off uptown and tried to get M job, but nobody wanted him. He was too old. And he didn't know bow to d mi) thing ex cept puuch ticket and sign train or ders. He never told til family of bis fruitless pilgrimages nor of his giiuw I it ar tmliHpplneaoi and tlikcoiilclit. Toward the end of winter Kllabcth went to the country to tlslt her aunt end while she was gone the lum-e seemed to the old imm unbearably lonely. F.ach day was like u week ami w lien at last she came b o k be was so happy to see her that be could searcely keep the tears out of bU eyes "Weeping now like an old woman," he said angrily t hiioilf as be brushed a hard h:: I across bis face. "ih, grandpa, grnmbia, I've goi !o most Wonderful news," said r.ll.ahclh, throwing her arms around bis nek. "I'.ut you've pot lo proud e to do something f r me before I II be per fectly happy. I'm going to need jo" so and I'm so iii'raid you won't want to do It." Need him! At the magic words a thrill passed over him and a bright Hess came Into his ces that had not been there for many u day. "Tell me all ahoiil II," be said. "Oh, grandpa, I'm going to marry the woiiderfulest man. He lives next to Aunt Anna'. That' bow I met him. And we're polug to live In u lit tle bungalow 'way out In l he coun try. The plans are nil made run he' going to begin building thin week, but John' away till week and I II be so dreadfully lonely. Won't you, won't you come out and live with us and help me make the grnbii i n I feed the chickens? John u he'll worry all the' time he's away If I'm alone there. Oh, do say you w ill !" She looked up at him with till the winsome pleading of eighteen, and C'ap'n Jimmy' voice trembled with ex cltement and happiness an be an swered casually enough: "I reckon that'd Just suit me line I wa raised In the country anil there ain't a thing I don't know- about farm life. We'll have White I-cghoriiH, Het ty. They're gram layers, and they ulu'ay look so .pretty .against the green graaa And Iheri'll have to be a couple o' pigs to butcher for Thanksgiving and Christmas. And the garden It'a about time to plant now, I better run down to ('nrleton and ec about It right off. I'll go down town and buy the aeeda today." "Oh, grandpa, you old impel !" cried Kllzalieth, happily. It waa a Joyful family group that discussed their plum for I he future that afternoon, and a little later tear sprang Into Mm. Wheeler's eye as she heard Cap'n Jimmy's quick busi nesslike step In the hallv ,y as he hur ried out the front door and down the street In quest of the garden Heeds. "Listen, Hetty, he'a whistling. It' the first time I've heard the 'riwanee Itlver' since lie lost Ida Job," she (aid. "Uenr, dear old grandpa !" said Hot 'ty softly. "He's been go brave and ro miserable."

Force In Expreailon The expression, "An unllcked cub," Is a strong, homely reference to a per son who Is crude, unpolished and un developed, w ho must literally be licked Into shape by the attrition of llfei' experiences. The metaphor I one we have bor rowed from the world of xoology. It Is an allusion to the practice- of the mother bear, who actually seems to be constantly licking her cubs. While, of course, the cub Is not In reality licked Into shape, still, an un llcked cub Is such a bedi-iggled look ing spectacle as compared with one who I, that the unllcked cub has come to take on the algiilllcance It has today, of omethlng uullulshed and uncouth. Kansa City Slur. . One. "Birthday" The word birthday designate pit miirily the day of one's birth. Col loquially, the term la used to desig nate subsequent anniversaries of that day. Dictionaries emphnslzo this use detlnlng the day a, "the day of one's birth or It anniversary," An anni versary I defined as, "a commemora tive observance or celebration of an event separated by one year, or by an exact number of years from aomc past event." On one' first annlver nary, one Is one year old but celebrate what Is colloquially accepted at one' second birthday, but otte'i first birth day anniversary. Literary Ilget.
