"Here are sixty thousand pounds," said the Khedive. "Let me buy it." Of course M. Bavray complied with the royal request, and was commissioned to fit it up and furnish if, which he did at a cost of £120,000. When all was finished he went to see the Khedive, taking his little sou with him. The monarch offered to kiss the boy, but be rau away crying, "No, no, mamma says you are a naughty man," "Why?" asked the Kehedive. "Because you have taken away our beautiful house." The Khedive wrote ou a piece of paper and told the boy to give it to bis mother. "You can kiss me now, litile man." he said, "lam no longer naughty."
