of the agent. Like him is the farmer
of a Fifeshire village of whom a Lon

He had been advised from time to

The agent, Sandy McLery, could never
get the old man to sign and was forced
to listen to the familiar argument that
his house would never gang on fire."
The unexpected happened however.
and the neighbors were astonished
when the old man. instead of trying to

SERVANTS IN CHINA.
The Way They show Their Contempt
For Foreigners.


The native servants employed by
white foreigners in China rarely learn
to call their employers by their proper
names when among themselves. If
the white man understands Chinese
they are, of course, careful to refer to
him by such deeply respectful names
as Heaven Born" or "Prince of Flow
ers'' hut if he only understands Eng
lish the case is different.
There was once British warship
on the China station which had native
servants in the wardroom mess. None
of the officers spoke Chinese. One day
they invited an American to dine with
them. The head butler tried the stran-
ger in Chinese but he looked blank.
although he really knew Chinese thor
oughly.
Several times during the meal he
laughed. but it was not until it was
over that he explained the cause of his
mirth.
