Sale of Burns Manuscripts.

From London Black and White
Let me write nations ballads and I
care not who makes its laws" wrote
Fletcher of Saltoun, and the aspiration
ceases to be entirely rhapsodical in the
light of the prl1S- obtained the other day
for the manuscript of some of Burns ball
lads. At sale of a collection of poems,
songs and letters by him of the immortal
memory" the manuscript of Scots Wha'
Haze" in the poets own handwriting,
fetched as much as S1,773. No~one would
give that sum, a 1.-THE of it, for the
original draft of act of parliament, and
yet the price is modest, having regard to
the unique interest of the lot" as the auc-
tioneer would have to describe H-particu-
larry when one remembers that three
years ago the manuscript of THE Cot
tars Saturday Night" was knocked down
at 81 500 1t is instructive TO note, by the
way that Scottish piety was unable to
rise to the figure of $i,7I5, even for such a
relic of the national Idol. 1t, exhausted it
self at the bid of 81, $50 and allowed the
coveted possession to pass into alien hands.
Enthusiasm in Scotland rarely outruns
discretion; and Burns countrymen seem
to think~that they have done enough for
him for the present in the preservation of
the Aud Brig of AYE, so dear to the heart
Of Lord Rosebery.

japanese Children at School.
From the Circle.

From the circle.
When a Japanese child is old enough
to stand. sometimes before, he is taught
to bow his little head very low, and his
first words are words of politieness. Chill
dren are taught early to show great
respect to their elders and to have such
reverence for those who are educated
that when they are old enough to go to
school there is no need to teach them
manners They know to a nicely the
exact amount of Difference to be shown
to the teacher and how he is to be ad-
dressed When they wish his aid they
say in japanese: Honorable teacher,
will you kindly stoop to assist your hum
BILE and unworthy pupil?' or words to
that effect. A slow and cumbersome
method, surely and one the American
child would find almost impossible to
make use Of; but back of 1t is a truo
spirit of politeness. which is often lack

all heads turn toward the left entrance to

be seen the pope coming their way. No

The menu varies differently from the ono

he varies the monotony of dishes with some
salad and two eggs.
AT 1870 he is in bed.

The same simplicity obtains in practcal-
ly every other department of the Vatican.
How many cuts he has made in the exc
penses that were once required to keep the
papal court going! At the time of Leo
XIII there Were monsignori paid monthly
and furnished with living quarters in tho
vatican to do such small things as TO
carry his hat whenever he went out, or to
hand 1t to him as he entered his carriage;
there We're others especially in charge OF
the umbrella or the cane of the pope, in
case it should rain IL should be clear:
there were still others-a regiment of them
all who had duties to perform, consist
ing of pitifu functions, while they enjoyed
living a life of opulence In the largest
Rome, and baskng in the brilliancy OF
empty titles.
Plus cut all these things down and
then out, without paying heed to the pro-
tests which came to him repeatedly from
those most concerned and which lasted
many day.
And even in religion itself he has en-
deavored to suppress all pomp. He insist
ed the Gregoran chant for the
renderings of the choirs were not in keep
ing with the surroundings. And IN tho
decorations of the sacred edifices he has
demanded plain style, a style that would
suggest quiet and holiness at once The
pope says that the solemnity of the Catho.
lie cult rests in its simplicity and in faith.
