A DRAW GAME.
How Two Scotchmen Saved Their
Renutations at Golf.

They were two local golf players, both
Scotchmen, and they went out to the
links to play a match in the dark. Each
Johnnie had cut a hole in his pocket,
and had ball already to drop down the
leg of his trousers just in front of the
other bali Off they drove, and on they
walked, and presently one says to the
other:
L say, Jock, my mon, I'm thinking
yo're o'erwalking your ba'."
ma. ma" says the second, mine was
a fine, clean drive, but whaur's yours? %
Eth, mon, mine was an awful clure.' >
So they went another fifty yards.
Then the first says:
Jock, mon, IN TAX my davy we're
past yours the moo"
Then whaur's you amp
"eh, mine was an awyful clure."
Another fifty yards brought them to
the putting green.
''Eh, Jock. I'm no seeing your ba' on
the green.
Maybe ye'd best see if it's in the
hole
My certes, why there it is! And,
eh, but it's curious; but there's mine in
the hole beside it Mon, it's awful
curious"
"Het's halved, then"
"Het's halved-one each-good play"
They teed up for the next hole sol
emnly. Then they stood looking at
each other a moment before they drove
off.
Say, Jock, my mon, dye think it's
any use TO gang on plaving like this 2"
I'm thinking it would just be a
halved match"
'Het's my ain very thocht Jock.
"A weel. we moo ca it a halved match
and gang home.'
I'm thinkin' 'twould save a world of
bother"
I'm of the same opeeneon myself. -
