a company of artillery, ob
served a rdgged urchin keep

his side. H is grace being
struek with'the cleanliness of

was going. The lad leplied:
MTo the park To see t. h e
dook inl sogers."
The Duke feeling interested
stopped his' carrriage, and
opened the door to the lad,
saying hp could ride to t h e
park with him.
The delighted lad, being in
ignorance of who he was kept
his grace interested with his
qusint remarks till the patk
gates werp reached.
As the carriage entered, it
was saluted by the jfompany
and guns, whereupon h i 8
grace said to the lad:
"Now, eon you show me
where the Duke is?"
The lad ejred his person all

Duke, replied quite seriously:
"Well., I dunno, mister; but
