At present he is the largest in- dividual owner of land in Ceylon, where he not only has extensive tea plantations, but where he has also succeeded in cultivating coffee and cocoa on a large scale. He has ware- houses in Ceylon, Colombo and India, headquarters at Calcutta» He was like the gentleman of Mr. Gilbert’s merry muse “ho Cleaned the windows and swept the floor, And polished all the handles of the big front door. And from that humble beginning Sir Thomas Johnstone Lipton controls 420 stores, 60 of them being in Lon- don. HE STARTS IN BUSINESS. The Glasgow workman had saved 3400, his entire fortune," and so pur- suasive had young Thomas grown that his father advanced it to him to start in business with. The result was a little provision shop. Here the young man worked day and night. He was his own salesman, his own porter and his own delivery wagon. He elem when he found time to sleep in alittle room back of the shop. He took down the shutters in the morning, and put them up again at night. After business hours he delivered the goods he had sold to his customers during the day. It was not a propitious homecoming for a lad who had gone away to mqke his fortune, but the experience was a. useful one. It had sharpened his wits and given him ebroader View of life. Sir Thomas himself declares that his first trip to the States was the one that made him. lo Canada’s Greatest Medicine. $1: six for $5. Here the breath of the sea gave him new life.

To vary matters, abullet next grazed the back of his left hand, memly roughing up the skin and drawing a few drops of blood. The most frolicksome of all reached Laurie just before the firing ceased for this day. The troops had reached a river, when 84 body of na- tives, ambushed, sprang up and de- livered a volley at short range. The shot that struck Laurie was. fired f_rom ”DJV' a point about twenty feet below him, which in some measum accounts for its odd pranks. The course of the ball was so curious that Laurie was par- aded before the General for inspection. The ball first enmred the lid of his ammunition pouch and bored its way through his pocket. It stayed long enough to splinter two pencils and a "gm". ma mien tom four holes in These pranks were not confined to the bullets. A native in a trench near by let drive at Laurie with aspear, which was thrown at short range with so undismayed, Laurie hurried on. A moment later a shot. passed through his sleeve near the wrist. It did not even graze the skin, but left two holes where it. had passed in end out of! the coat}. The other adventures came a little later, after he had entered the zareba. The bullets were flying thick and fast. and men were falling all around, when a bullet struck the bayonet of Laur- ie’s rifle. The gun was held so firmly at the instant of impact and the bul- let struck it so,’ fairly that it bent it neatly over until several inches of steel stood at right angles to the gun. But the gun was still fit for fighting, The first bullet to come in Laurie’s direction struck the shoe of his left foot, cutting off the. toe of the shoe neatly and detaching a piece of leath- er, but without touching the foot. Laurie looked at his foot, congratulat- ed himself on wearing sensible shoes with plenty of room, and dashed for- ward toward the enemy. Corporal Laurie's Seven Strange Escape. From [Death In One Battle. Tho most talked-of man in :th'e Brit- ish‘ army at present is a survivor of the recent battle of Atbara who was bit during the engagement by half a. dozen bullets tint shattered his gun, cut away his clothing and played oth- er queer pranks without inflicting a serious wound. The case is so remarkable that it. has been investigated by a number of high officers of the army, who pronounce it this most remarkable of its kind on record. The soldier who escaped from death in this miraculous manner, Cor- poml Laurie, of the Seaforth Highland- ers is still at his post and says he suf- fers no inconvenience from his thril- ling adventure.
