- Anecdotes of Mr. Gladstone.
A recently published little leek, com-
piled by "an Oxford man and a Hawar--
denite, contains many new , anecdotes
about the English Premier mostly Nil-
lected in the vicinity ,of Hawarden.
Here are a few specimens :
A.bout forty years ago several haulers
were employed in carrying pig -iron from
Brymbo to Queensferry. Among the
number was one Win.'Griffiths; who is
still alive. This man, when going down
Tinkersetale one day, with his load of
iron, 'was accosted by s stranger, who
chatted very freely with him. Among
Other questions, the stranger asked how
much he got per ton for carrying the
' iron. jr"sSlix and sixpenee," said the
- carter. "What weight have you On
the cart"" "About a ton and a half."
" And what do you pay • for., gates ?"
Eighteen -pence." - How much does it
cost to keep the mare ?" " Thhteen-
shillings a week." Presently they
reahed the foot of the Mill Hill. "How
are , you going to get up this hill?"
asked the stranger. "Oh, I num get
me 'slimier, and push, up here." "I'll
help You a bit," said he, and at once
put his shoulder to the cart, and pushed
up the hill well. When they reached
the tap the hauler said, " You and me's
been as good as a chain horse." "Well,
well," said. the stranger, "1 don't know
haw the horse's legs aiT, but mine ache
very much indeed. I suppose yon can
manage now?" "Yes, thank you,"
said the hauler, and, wishing him good -
day, they separated As soon as the
stranger was gone, a tradesman asked
Griffiths if he knew who had been help-
ing him. "No," said he, "he's a per-
fect stranger to me." "That was Glad-
stone," said the tradesman. " Mr.
Caadstone !" responded th,e hauler; "I
dun lk-now what he'll think o' me then,
for I never sir'd him nor nothin'. 1
thou,,eht he was some farmer." North-,
rop, like most other impOrta.nt villages,
has its carrier. This man visits Chester
once pr twice a week, and carries all
manner of goods for the inhabitants of
the districts through which he passes.
On one occasion he brought a barrel of
beer from Chester for a farmer living in
Moor lane, the entrance I to which is_
close to one of Mr. Gladstone's lodges.
Arriving at thisspot he stopped his horse,
and was wondering how h could mea -
1
Age to get the barrel lower d, for he witl
to leave it by the lodge, a the farmer
had agreed to feteh it from '. there him-
self. At! this moment uP came Mr.
Gladstone with his axeuponhis shoulder.
"Hey old comrade," said he, "come
and give us a hand with this barrel."
' Without any hesitation the Premier
assisted him to lower it to the ground,
" Now,o1c1 fellow," said the carriers," if
thoull come up "mto- the village I'll pay
for a pint of beer for thee."", ' No thank
you. You are welcome tits, my assist-
ance." said Mr. Gladstone, and walked
away toward the castle -smiling. A
villager who was standing
off, then came up to he
asked him if he knew w

Castle grounds, where the how is an-
nually held, a fat old ,ca,rt er womana,
whom, he humorously introd ced to the
visitors as "Lady Marga -et." This
notable persona.ge, Margar
the carrier woman, was at
feasts giVen in honor of A=
Gladstone's marriage,and as is usual at
sueh gatherings, toasts were introduced.
It fell to Margaret's- lot to . propose the
Premier's healthe Springing to her feet,
she, in very- homely yet a,ppropriate
i
terms, made her proposition. Mr.
Gladstone, responding, thanked them
for all their good wishes,,more especi-
ally "Lady Margaret," ad he called her ;
the mention of which caused roars of
laughter. The title has clung to her
from that day to this, and letters are
atm, addressed to her beariag that title.
'On one occasion she said tathe Premier,
" Eh, sir,, why do you net come and
live avith us always where everybody md'
thinks so much of you, insteaof going
up to London . and bothering yourself
with those fellows who will never let
you alone? Why not settle down here
in your beautiful house, and enjoy your-
self ?" ''Well," said Mr: Gladstone,
" let me put you a question, Why
should you not sell your horse and cart
and give up troubling yourself a,bairt
this going to and from Chester ?" "Eh,
but,- she answered, "that is my work,
and I think if I gasre it up I should die."
" And the other," said Mr. Gladstone,
"is my work, and I must do it the best
- way I can:" Mrs. Gladstone was going
out for a walk. She had got a short
distrw
ance fom the castle hen a party
of 1:iSitOrS met her. "I say is the old
zs
,,entleman at home ?" said one of them.
- Yes," said Mrs. Gladstone. "We
want to see him' " said he. "Follow
me,- was her reply ; " P11 take you to
• hint." She led the way to the front
door, and called out, " William, you're
wanted." "By golly," whispered one
of thera, "she must be his 'wife !"

Manly English !Boys.
(Robert Laird Collier in Chicago News.)
The boys begin outdoor sports almost
when they begin to walk. The gover-
ness is expected to take the children for
' regular and long walks daily. The boys
Lave cricket, " hares" and 'hounds, lawn
tennis, riding, swimming and boating,
and keep up these outdoor exercises and
recreations pretty much all through life.
Gentlemen of all acres engage in these
sports, and when too old to play the
more vigorous games, take a hand at
bowls. Every Englishman knows how
. to play, and to the last enjoys to play.
" The Englishman is a Spartan. He is
hard and hardy. He suppresses his feel-
ings. He has feelings, but. they are 'so
deep down that he seldom gets at them:
They never come to , the surface. It is
deemed. um anly to show feeling. He
plays as a y at .football. ' It is a cruel,
almost bra 1 game. He riins his risk:
I have seenla boy taken off the field un-
conscious ; when he came to himself he
said, : " Oh, it's nothing." These boys
are manly fellows ; honest, truthful,
trusty, gen rous, and stout-hearted. I

boys look.upon German boys as pedants,

upon American boys as " elderly gentle-
men." The American boy is, the rive'.

short breeches just as long as can be.
He has no fancy for parties and bills

uses slang. This is his vernau1ar. A
green -grocer's son, who puts on airs, he
palls a "cad ;" a,n.awkward boy who is
inapt and a bit cowardly, he says is a
" duffer ;" a hiding and deceitful boy is
Isnoven as a muff." When the school-
master is angry, he is "waxy." He al-
ways uses negatives. A fellow is gush

far beyond saying " it's not bad " or

this have been rendered somewhat less
striking than it was; but it is unlikely
to have been largely modified. It for-

Mary is the , great saint name . of
later Middle Ages, owing its ori
popularity to the exaggerated reve
paid in those days to the Mother o
Lord. Yet the Reformation itself
lowed by Puritanism, was powerless to
dislodge it from the 'position which pre -
Reformation views had assigned to it, '
for it had become deeply endeared to the
people by family usage. Hence the de -
1
nominational expression of Mario atry
was lately, and , probably is now, the°
commonestname in Protestant Eng and.
William came to this dountFy as a bap-
tismal appellation with the Conqueror,
whose ' 'might made* right 800 years ago."
It was pre-eminently unlikely, consider-
ing the donditions of its introduction, to
secure popular approval. But in time
personal -association won for if a -victory
as decisive as its ducal bearer had NV011
for Normandy at Hastings. The a,ny
leading men who bore the Conqu ror s
name passed it on largely no doullat to'
those of lower rank ' who loved. their
service; the .same went on in humbler
circles still. At last, by repetition,
William became so common that it
origiaated, as it is said, mere Sin•names
than any other baptismal' appellatioa.
