Made Him Apologize

That Christian IX. of Denmark, whose ülness is at present causing much anxiety, brings up nis children in the way they should go is sufficiently evidenced by the following anecdote: One day at the dinner table the young prince asked his father what was the meaning of a word he had never heard before. This word, "lusing," is the Danish equivalent for our "box on the ears." The king asked his son where he had heard such a word. The boy, blushing to the roots of his hair, conessed, after a little natural hesitation, hat he had been out in the streets amusing himself by ringing the bells and then running away. But at one door an angry porter rushed out and shouted after Mm that he would give him a "lusing" if ever he did such a thing again. When the prince had flnished his explanation his father exclaimed: "Very well, to-morrow you shali go with me to that very house ana beg the porter's pardon for such rudeness." Accorditgly, the next day the king went with his much-abashed son and made him apologize.
