The ProdiGal Son Made to Pay Hand-
 sOmely for His Fodder.
 A Scotchwoman, the wife of Phila- delphia merchant, returns from a sum- mer in her own land with some very funny stories of the canny middle-class Caledonians As a girl, the nearness characterizing them was unnoticed, but after living on this side, she says, Amer ican iberality in money matters con- trasts very strikingly with Scotch thrift. Her first outing after getting home was on the invitation of a young man, a cousin, who was civil enough to ask her to a county f1ower-show. As his fathers carriage was used in transport ing them to the show no question of who was to pay arose until they reached the entrance. Here the lady, accustomed to having her escort make arrange ments, stood gazing idly about, giving the matter no further thought. Picture her rude awakening to national customs when Cousin Robin gave her elbow a gentle nudge. and in the most matter of-fact way advised her of the sum necessary to purchase ticket. "Just you step over there, Jennie, and pay it to that man in the plaid" It was not altogether stinginess, she continued; for, once inside, Robin bought her a nosegay costing three times the price oi admission.
 The strangest thing happened in a neighbours house, where one of the sons had come home fors fortnight's visit. He was prosperous young Glas- gow merchant, and brought his peo- pie number of pretty souvenirs. The morning of his departure bill for two weeks board was laid on his plate, item- izing every thing, to the candles burned in his bedroom. In no way offended by this observance of time-honored GUS. tom, the young fellow looked through the account and ohi"cted to a charge for bacon he had nev"r eaten. ''The meat was on the table, my son, and if you failed to enjoy it you must pay for being fool," replied his father. And SO he rendered his indebtedness to the last farthing. Where the lads and lassies go of and set up establishments of their own, an unwritten law is rigidly ob. served of paying tax to the old home. stead whenever they return to enjoy it's hospitality American.

A Roy. ] Mad Dog.

Prince Victor Napoleons poodle has gone mad and bitten people in Brussels. The animal first attacked the valet and female servant of M. Blanc, the Princes secretary. and it was taken for examination to M. Crispi, local veterinary surgeon. While un- dergoing inspection the dog made snap at M. Crispi, who escaped with a slight scratch on the arm, the canine teeth having gone through his clothes. Prince Victor sent the three persons to Paris in order to be inoculated with the protective virus discovered by M. Pas teur, but only the two servants have been placed under treatment, as the scratch on the arm of the veterinary surgeon Las been deemed slight, and likely to lead to no dangerous results.

Reads Like n Fairy Tale.

From Stamford, Conn, comes the tale of an inheritance which reads like the plot of an English sensational novel. A crippled music teacher of that place had by strictest economy saved, some thirty years since, about $500, with which he intended to buy a home for himself and his mother. Ho always kept the money beside his bed. and one night it was stolen. All search was unavailing, and the poor fellow took up his work with a heavy heart But the sequel of the tale is that not long since the music teacher, still poor and obscure. received letter from a man in Australia whose name he had never even heard, saying that he was on the point of death, that he had stolen the money and that so greatly had it thriven in his hands that he had amassed largo fortune, all of which he had willod the musician. Not long after the Australian was gathered to his fathers, and his lawyer informed the American that he had fallen heir to an estate worth $20, 900, 900. The moral of the tale is whatever the reader pleases. Boston Courier.
