"there was a youngstor out there who , did not seem to hai> any seilso of danger." The "youngster" was his Royal j Highness. The Prince was. of course, originally I intended for a sailor, and when ho was ! a littb hoy, this was his ambition. Ho i once gave a quaint reason for his choice p which amused th<» King very much. His Majesty found his e'c.'est son | drawing ships one day, and was very pleased to seo this sign of the boy's ' love for his own profession. | "Daddy," said the little Prince, " when 1 grow up, I want to be a jailor." | "1 am glad to hear it," said ins , fnther. "Daddy's a sailor, you know . —so you would like to be one, too?" • "Yes," replied the Prince, "I don't ] like lessons, and sailors don't neecJ to | have many brains, do they?"
