' son, a great-granddaughter or th
poet, reminds one that descendants
of Robert Mime scattered theraselve,
e- all over the world.
There was a few years ago, an
probably still is, a Robert Burn
Hutchinson, a great-grandson, a 'bro-
ther of the lady just dead, who 'was
clerk in a shipping insurance office
in Chicago, India, Australia, and
England have known others; and
there was a great-grandson who, af-
ter many years' service in the Scots
12'u er Guards, became keeper of
the City of Edinburgh Gunpowder
Magazine.
Sir George Reid had what might
be called a narrow escape of at least
a commotion with the poet's family.

Now take the grasshopper for ex--

the grasshopper has -only an exist-
epee—an aimless existence.
When we say aimless, we speaee
advisedly, for the 'scientists tell us
