slowly before the white-robed and
peaceful figure. AT the foot, never
moving, stood the king, and when
the mourning crowd had passed there
remained only the son and grandson
of The dead. Emperor William wept
even more bitterly than the royal la
dies. Finally he also retired, and the
king was left al,ne. Sir James Reid,

speechless, stricken with emotion at
the last farewell. Then he said

Thus the remains of England's
greatest ruler were forever closed
from human view. Reverently the

Emperor William covered his face
with his hands, and the grief of
Princess Beatrice was pitiful. After

upon the coffin, and then all retired.

But betrays some waywardness-
Fen these tickets, blue and red,

Tangled up with wire and twine,
And dead angle worms, and some

-"Are you Buffalo" is by no
means recent expression, nor is the
order of Buffaloes a new creation.
The expression is put into the lips of
Baldassarre, a character insthe well
known novel of "Romola," written
by George Elliott more than forty
years ago. Baldasserre lived in the
18th century, and it was in 1894 that
he is credited with giving out the now
famous words. To be buffalo in
those days was to be a knowing
"duffer" whether for good or for evil,
and to be ready for any joke or under
hand work.
