famous as a singer and player on the guitar.

which was a passion with him, be wou ■
occasionally stop along the lonely road an
sing a song or two, or play somo c..arnn s
Ortco, while thus engaged, he was heaH
by a number of pieasants, who, quite ig
ant of Ins identity, listened to him ‘
rapture, and applauded him with K -
“If you come to the inn,” said one of ‘ ■
“with that voice and that touch, * .
promise you a good glass oi wine, it

“Falling in with their humor, Maximilian
accompanied them to the village
Here he rendered several choice m -
with such skiU and taste that he ha , , ,

friends. , „ n
Finally he announced that bs § e |

termined to do so; be took ba hat and went
sound among the auditors, ‘ u im ,oif,

and offered it to tho archduke. , 00 j,
Seeing the honesty of the motive,
the coins and put them in his pock ,

who knew Maximilian, happened t 0 ““ nO ,
Seeing tho crowd around bun,
knowing the cause, he called o>u- ga
“Stand back, you , clo ?7 ls ; iro , l | ) ,au yoaf
know it’s tho Archduke Maximi ,
The tavern-keeper fell on bis
fright, and thinking his tPOi 6 h , esc
wai tho crowning infamy of wb
been guilty, he asked that it be K- iin jiisi
“Not a bit of it,” said Maxn
heartily. “It’s the first m 0" farnil?

for a thousand years, aud a m go* D B
