Wore n Shawl.

All Scotland knew Prof. Blackie and
his plaid, but comparatively few knew how
he came to wear the plaid. When he re-
ceived his first professorship he told A.
b. Todd Of Cumnock he was scant Of cash.
His wife insisted on his having a new
black coat. This, however, he could at
that particular time but i'll afford, but he
got Mrs. Blackie to wrap her pretty plaid
around hhHS shoulder. That hid the bare
ness Of his coat, gave him a picturesque
appearance and made him decent until
money came in" The professor, howev-
er, never discarded the plaid, and when
we think Of him today we also think of
the plaid.-St. James Gazette.

He Got His Own WAY.

The house was full of company, so the
small boy was obliged to sleep with his
uncle. He was perfectly willing to sleep
on the couch in his uncle's room, but his
grandma thought it better that he sleep
in the bed. The uncle was q rather
giddy young man, but charming for all
that, but he was out late that night. The
small boy slept soundly till early morn
ing, when, unfortunately, he kicked his
uncle in the small Of the back. The
uncle turned, made one or two uncom-
plimentary remarks and thought nothing
more Of it.
The next night, however, the small boy
insisted on sleeping on the couch. His
grandma tried to persuade, but to no eff
feet. Finally, on being asked why he in
sisted ne said, "Well, last night l kicked
Uncle Fred and he said if [ didn't keen
still there'd be a little Clark gone to

He Finally Remembered.

There is a little boy in Denver who is
as bright as an 1898 dollar, but he
doesn't always have a ready command of
language. The other day his sister got
married and Willie was the happiest boy
in the crowd, for his newly-aequired
brother-in-law had been generous in his
purchase of candy for the little fellow.
After the ceremony was over and the
time for the shower of congratulations
had arrived, Willie was one of the last to
reach his sister and her brand new hus-
band and when he did get there he took
hold of their hands and studied for some
time before he could say anything.
Poor little fellow, he is almost crying,
too" said the bride
mo, l amt was the brave reply; 81
have forgot that thing I had fixed up to
say and was trying to think of somethin'
else-oh, yes, wish you many happy re-
turns of the day-that's what I had
thought up-wish you many happy re-
turns of the day"
And his little face frightened up while
a suppressed laugh passed around the
room.-Denyer Times.
