THE BOY IN BUTTONS.—The late Captain Basil
Hall was dining in the house of a friend in Scotland,
the party was large, and an errand-boy from the kitchen
had been arrayed in some sort of livery, and promoted for
the nonce to assist in waiting at the table. The party was
rather a dull one, as often happens when a number of guests
are brought together promiscuously, and the captain was
striving hard to break the ice by relating some of the most
wonderful adventures by sea and land. At length he told
one story which seemed even to himself almost to exceed
the bounds of credibility, for he stopped short and said,
" Now, did ever any of you hear anything equal to that ?"
At that moment his eye happened to fall on the errand boy,
who, believing the question addressed especially to himself,
without the smallest hesitation replied, " Hoot, ay, mon,
there's a lass in oor kitchen that has a sister that has three
thooms 1" If a bomb had burst in the midst of the party
it could not have created greater sensation,—Fraser's
lfagazine.
