A. Chinese stratase,u,

Rajah .Suran. who was one of the
earliest rulers of India, 1overrAn the
entire east with the exception Of Chi
ma, killed innumerable sultans with his
own hand and married all their daugh-
tiers. 1t Is said that when the Chinese
heard of his triumphant progress and
learned that he had redched their
frontier they became much alarmed.
The emperor called a council of his
generals and mandarins, and upon the
advice of crafty old mandarin the
following strategem was carried out:
A large ship was loaded with rusty
nails, trees were planted on the deck,
the vessel was manned by numerous
crew of old men and dispatched to the
rajah's capital. When 1t arrived-the
most wonderful part of the story is
that 1t did arrive-the rajah sent IN
officer to ask how long 1t had taken the
vessel to make the trip from China
The Cinnamon answered that they had
all been young men when they set sail
and that on the voyage they had plant
ed the seeds from which the great trees
had grown. In confederation Of their
story they pointed to the rusty nails
which. they said. had been stout iron
bars as thick as mans arm when
they started. You can see" they con-
cluded, that China must be very
long distance away"
The rajah was SO much impressed
by these plausible arguments that he
concluded he would not live long
enough to reach China and abandoned
his projected invasion.

Eating a Living OK,

Only the very few among us run any
risk, in the course of our peregrinations
and vicissitudes, Of being invited to
such Objectionable dinners as 1t was
the lot Of Bruce, the explorer, to eat.
Such very nasty feeders as the Abys-
sinians of his day are becoming e1-
tinct. Fancy sitting down to table and
seeing the meat walk alive into the
room! That was their custom. And
they ate 1t alive. too, the brutes!
The wretched OK was tied fast, head
and legs, and then, by delicate in
cision on both sides of the backbone.
near the launches, the attendants were
able to strip Its skin away, to enable
them to cut slices from the poor ami
NAL again and again without touching
an artery. The guests ate the meat
raw and quivering to the music of the
roars and believing of pain of the OK
of which 1t was a part.
This is hideous, and even the least
particular Of men may be excused for
Sinking an experience of the kind,

A Fish and Lizard story.

One afternoon thought l would go

hook live minnow and in little
while had strike, and l hooked my
first fish, which seemed to be quite n
large one. l reeled him where I could
see him and found 1t was large pike
rs or 80 inches long. pulled him up
to my boat, but when I lifted him
from the water he was as light as a
feather. measured him and found he
WIS just 80 inches long and should
have weighed eight or nine pounds.
while he only weighed two. He was
Just skin and bones. / killed him, took
my knife and cut him open and found
a live lizard, five inches long, In his
stomach. The reptile was as black as
coal and very lively, living "a hours

substantial meal may be had for n
halfpenny, or cent in our money.
This cheap repast is not served up In

juicy and very hot. The absence Of

pie, but you find inside liberal sprin.

Nine Tailor. Make n Man,


mine tailors make man" grew out
of the old custom of bell ringing. The
ringing of bells was formerly practiced
from n belief in their efficacy to drive
away evil spirits. The "tailors" in the
above phrase is corruption of the
word "tellers," or strokes tolled at the
end of knell. In some places the de-
parture of an adult was announced by
nine strokes In succession. Six were
rung for woman and three for child.
Hence it came to be said by those lis
tening for the announcement, Nine
tellers make man." AS this custom
became less general and the allusion
less generally understood there was an
easy transition from the word "tellers"
to the more familiar one "tnilors.'
That inevitable Joker, Curran, took
advantage Of this popular saying t.
poke fun in a good natured way at his
hosts on the occasion of his being en-
tertained ut dinner by IS of the Guild
of Tailors. Curran on leaving rose and
said, Gentlemen, l wish you both
good evening""

Wnen the nev. Walter Dunlap, MIN

in Dumfries, saw member of his flock
nodding while he was preaching, he
stopped suddenly and said:

Another Caledonian preacher, on like
protocation, cried out, Hold up yer
heads, my friends, and mind that nei-
then saints nor sinners are sleeping in
the next world"
Then, finding that this general ex-
hortation was insufficient to deter n
certain well known member of the
church from getting his nights rest
forward, the reverend gentleman turn
cd toward the offender and said:

a mysterious message, which read:

is better, not to inquire into matters

Just as the evening performance was
about to commence IN order Of arrest
signed by Gourko was presented to the
impersonator, and without explanation
he was led through the streets to the
marshal's palace and into an apartment
where the terrible man was seated.
"They tell me that you impersonate cell

Giving hnsty look at Gourko, the
performer turned to the mirror to
