Tam Samson was gray haired vet
eran sportsman, who on one occasion,
when out moorfowl shooting and feel
ing the weight of years begin to press
upon him, expressed the belief that the
expedition was to be his last and de-
sired, in somewhat tragic style, that
he might die and be buried in the
moors.
Burns hearing of this, Immediately
composed his famous elegy. In which
he related at length the exploits and
skill OF his hero. ending each verse
with the pIaintive line Tam Samson's

Some one having told Samson that
Burns had written poem-"a gey
queer ane"-ahout him. he sent for the
poet and in something like wrath asked
him to read what he had written. On
hearing the recital of his exploits he
smiled grimly and seemed by no means
displpasad. But" he exclaimed, I'm
no dead yet. Robin. Wherefore should
sc say that I'm deadY Burns retired
for few minutes; then he returned
and recited TO Tam the following verse,

Folks Made Thin.

Neodesha is a small town in WilscN

country, and 1t is likely that the town
will become q popular resort for fat

pulency reduced. The general health

surroundings Of the place to indicate
an unusual condition Of things. or to

the fact remains that stout persons
who reside there do grow thin, and

In costume q Chinese policeman is
something betweenia circus clown and
q football player. His breeches are
always baggy, and very we'll wadded-
SO clumsy you wonder how he gets
around in them, particularly when. as
is often the case, he wears a coat,
also thick and clumsy. coming well
below the knees. Dark blue is the
prevailing color. set OF with bands

maroon and brown. but never yellow.

mittsd to nobody below the rank of a
viceroy.
In the treaty ports. that is to say.
those open TO foreign influence and
commerce. the police force is largely
made up Of Sikhs from northern In
dia. The reason, perhaps, ia that the
Chinese themselves are essentially un-
varliks; they have q proverb to the
effect that "no good man is ever a
soldier" AS men in the pay of the
Chinese government, whether natives
Or not, they have taken an active part
in the present trouble in China.

Found Byron's Skull Cup.
The drinking cup, fashioned out Of a
human skull, which was constantly
used by the poet Byron, has been
found beneath the floor Of the. chapel

remarkable history. The story goes
that while living at Newstead. Lord
Byron found a human skull of large
dimensions and peculiar whiteness.
He concluded it belonged to some jolly
old soul Of a friar, and he resolved to
convert it into a drinking vessel. Ac-
cordingly, he dispatched it to London,
where it was elegantly mounted. On
its return to Newstead Byron insti-
