At a meeting Burns addressed a little while ago, he hnppened to be wearing a new SViit Of ClOtbes, and this seems to have caught the attention of one of the audience, who did not altogether credit John's disinterestedness, and in the midst of the speech he interpolated a question, " Where did you get them clothes ?" The audience were indignant, but Burns having quieted them, turned to his questioner and explained. He had not bought them. When his counterfeit presentment in wax was recently added to the Tussaud collection, the management, with a characteristic penchant for realism, asked him what he would take for one of his suits of clothes.
