A STORY.
It all began when he was youn»
Through fortune's hard mischance
It came about he had to wear
His daddy’s cut down pants.
He then grew up to man's estates
Continued as before.
And when he went in politics
The boss' collar wore.
He next became a benedict.
Of course we may surmise
From color cor«j>lnations st ran re
He wore his helpmeet’s ties.
And though In his apparel, thus.
He never cared to choose,
He made a failure when he tried
To fill a great man's shoes.
The moral of this tale is this:
For either fame or pelf
A tailor poor is circumstance.
You'd better dress yourself.

Story of a Recent Premature Burial
In China.
This is the tale of a ghost that eats.
and It has thrown the towns of the,
Siangfu district of China into a com- I
motion. The facts are related in the I
North China Herald. On March 27
the thirty-year-old son of Tzi Lung, a
schoolteacher, was thought to have
died of typhus fever. His family be
ing very poor, the body was placed in
a frail wood coffin and buried only a
few Inches under the soil outside the
western gate of the town of Slang
yang. On April 6 a man put his horse |
to graze on the spot. The beast found
good grass near the grave and brought
its foot down upon the soil above the ■
coffin, the lid of which was broken. '
In a little while the owner of the horse .
saw a gaunt white arm thrust up !
through the hole made by the horse's
hoof.
Thinking the dead man's ghost was
about to rise to avenge the insult of
fered in the breaking of the coffin, the
watcher hurried up and began shovel
ing earth into the bole to keep the
ghost down. A muffled voice expos I
tulated and l>egged to be freed, claim
ing to be the living son of Tzl Lung.
The watcher fled in terror to the town,
where be told every one be met of
what had happened. The ghost's fa
ther urged that the ghost should be let
alone and not further disturbed.
A large crowd, however, went out
of the city to view the wonder. The
ghost kept begging most piteously to
be let out. One man had courage
enough to unearth the cover of the
coffin completely and open It, allowing
tbe "resurrected” man to sit up. Rice
soup and wine were brought and rav
enously devoured by the ghost, still
sitting upright in bls coffin Imbedded
In the earth.
Finally the unhappy spirit was re
leased and confined in a temple until
be could prove himself to be a living
man.—Chicago News.
