BILE, car of Russia, in 1888, had an
exciting time. Ivan had killed his
own son a few years earlier in a fit OF
passion, and was no easy character to
deal with. The car saw fit to dis
parage the English queen, whom, he
declared, "he did not reckon to be his
fellow" there being those who were
her betters. Bowes could not stand
this sort of thing, and pluckily as
serted that his princess was as great
az any in Christendom. What! As
great as the emperor of Germany
demanded Ivan. why" answered
Bowes, with a fine assumption Of
scorn, "such is, the greatness of the
queen, my mistress, that. the king hel
father had not long since the emperor

The czar was at first more furious

The following example of quaint,
philosophical Scotch character is re-
lated in the Scottish American: The
season had been an exceptionally bad
one for farming, but in church not
far from Arbroath the officials had re-
solved, according to custom, to hold
the annual harvest thanksgiving serv-
ice. 1t was noticed that on that par
ticular occasion Mr.. tombstone, reg.
ular attendant and pillar of the church
(whose crops had miserably failed),
was not in attendance. The minister
in the course of the following week
met Mr. tombstone and inquired of
him the reason Of his absence from
church on such an important occasion:
