A few years ago his majesty had a
pair of ears like everyone else. Now
he hears through a brace Of sound

among charity patients in all the local
hospitals for a sound pair of ears

to have offered s5;000,000, 000.13 for
a brace Of hearing organs in perfect

In spite of the colossal reward,
there was no one with ears that would
entertain an offer to have them cut

.A LITTLE FUN At
AMERICAS EXPENSE
WGKls NOT 50 GENEROUS IN
DEALING WITH BOXER IN
DEMNIIN CLAIM

LONDON, Aug. 9.-Thc British
foreign office today pokcd q little
fun at Americas generosity with
China in the Boxer indemnity matter
According TO the governments view
John Bull was just as generous as
Uncle Sam but not quite so thoatri-
cal or spectacular in his method.
The foreign Office note is reply to
a recent anti-opium trade doputation,
the spokesman OF which called at.
tcntion TO the fine position won for
the United states by the action Of its
government i'm regard 10 the Boxer
Indemnity ana said he thought Great
Britain ought 10 have taken similar
action.
The rcpy of Sir Edward Grey, the
british foreign minister expresses
some warmth as he explains that
there has been "a great misundcr-
standing on the subject Of the Boxer
indemnity. He says:
The British government was not
wise In IT'S generation. II had drawn
up large claims against China but re-.
duced them before presenting them.
