The Prince .was slender, and hada mild, pleasing countenance ; hig ears were rather too large, and on this account the Parisians (for whom nothing is sacred. and who always find a nickname for everybody), called him ‘ Prince Oreil- lard.’ His christening by Cardinal Pa- trizi, as representing Pope Pius 1X., was a gorgeous court display. The Empress showed herself a real mother to the boy, often spending her entire days and nights beside his cradle in spite of courtetiquet'e and the Emperor's remoastrances. She had her reward in the boundless affection that the child learned to feel for her—a love which has known no diminution. His father, though he loved the boy very dearly, rarely petted him save 1p public. One day the boy, then perhaps Sh years old, was erying with the tooth- ache. The Emperor scolded him, saying that the future Emperor of France should be above all such weaknesses. ‘But it hurts me awfully, papa,’ replied the boy. ‘No matter,’ sternly rejoined the hero of Sedan, ‘stop up your cars with your fingers, and you will not feel the pain.’ The boy glanced at him io amazement,but followed his tather’s advice, and ten minutes later announced that the pain was over. Mild and amiable as he was, he occas- lonally yielded to temper when his play mates, ‘he sons of Dr. Vonneau and Gens. Fleury and Espinasse, were not ready to obey his whims. ‘I ama Napoleon,’ he said one day to young Espinasse, who had refused to race with him; ‘ woe to him that will not obey.’ His father overheard him, und the boy was condemned to bread and water for twenty-four hours. The}, young Prince, when a little boy could not be induced to mount a pony until he had been threatened with the severest punishments, so much did he fear a tumble. Afterward he became a fine horseman. His favourite pastime was to listen to the music that the band of the Imperial Guard played daily iu the court of the Tuileries. He took such a strong liking for the cornet player of the band, Dufour that he would not consent to the latter’s retiring with the others. Often wken all the others bad gone, the colossal M. Dufour was seen either standing be- tore the diminutive prince to play the cornet, or carrying him around in his arms for hours and hours in succession. One day the Empress was talking with some of her ladies of honour about a certain marriage which had recently taken place. ‘I, too, will get married,’ said the boy ; ‘1 will marry M. Dufour.’ Young Louis was frequently requested by his tutor, General Froissard, to be prudent ; ‘a prince,’ he was told, ‘should never commit himself one way or the other.’ A short while after he had been reminded of this duty the son of General Fleury ayked him whether he was hungry. ‘I would not like to express any opinion on the subject,’ young Louis gravely re- plied. As he grew older he manifested uo- common talent and a strong taste for books as well as for military drill. His favour- ite study was history, in which he be- came proficient rather through his own exertions that those of General Froissard. He had a wonderful memory for datcs and names, and at the ege of 10 he could tell the exact day on which any important battle had taken place, and the names of the generals engaged in it. One day, at the Paris exhibition of 1867, the Emper- or and family happened to pass through the outside gallery of the Prussian de. partinent, where the immense Krupp guo was exhibited. It weighed 5,000 tons, und was mcuated on a massive gun car- riage about eighteen feet in height. The Emperor was obliged to pass under it, and cast a stealthy glance at the monster without raisiog his head. The Prince Imperial, with boylike insist- anee, sought to attract his father’s at- tention to the gun by pulling the skirt of his frock coat. The Emperor gave him a jerk, and the party moved! along. But the boy was not satisfied, and in a subdued tone almost timidly, asked :—‘*Why have you not a_ bigger one, papa?’ ‘1 do not want war,’ child, he Emperor replied aloud. Applause greeted his words, but perhaps those of the boy were worthier of consider. ation.— New York Sun. | ——> owes. Ask Yourself these Questions.

Constitutional Catarrh © Remedy CURES CATARRH. ne Hear what a Reverend Gentleman says of the Constitutional Ren.edy. T. J. B. Harpine, Esq., Brockville, Ont.:— Dear Sir—It is now two years since your ‘‘Censtitutional Catarrh Remedy’ was intro- duced to me. I have waited this ong to see if the eure would remain permanent before do- ing this, my duty, to you, as at first the happy effects seemed to me to be ‘‘too good to true.” I was afflicted in my head for years before I suspected it to be Catarrh. In readingin your Circular I saw my case described in many par- ticulars. The inward ‘‘drop” from the head had become very disagreeable, and a choking sensation often preventing me from lying long, I would feel like smothering and be compelled to sit up in the bed, My health and spirits were seriously affected. When your agent came to Walkertown in August, 1876, I secured three bottles. Before I had used a quarter of the contents of one bottle I found decided re- lief, and when I had used two bottles and a third, I quit taking it, feeling quite cured of that ailment, and have not used any since until of late I have taken some for a cold in my head. A sense of duty to sufferers from that loath- some disease, Catarrh, prompts me to send you this Certificate, unsolicited, with leave to make what use of it yon may see proper Yours truly, W. TINDALL, Methodist Minister. Port Elgin, Cui., Aug. 24, 1878. Ask for Littlefield’s Constitutional Catarrh Remedy and take no other. T. J. B. Harpixc, Dominion Agent, Brock- ville, Ont.
