Scotch Fishermen Caddte.

At certain seasons in Scotland.
when the fishing is not very brisk, the
fishermen act as caddies and are cas-
lily recognized by their costume-a
woolen jersey and trousers braced un
to the armpits. One of these was
asked his name by the gentleman for
whom he was carrying, and the reply
was:
"Weel, sir, hereabouts they maistlv
ca me 'Breeks, but ma maiden name
is Broom"
Ihls is only equaled by the caddie
who was asked who such and such
person was. and replied:
Il no rightly ken his name. but
he's a major something; at least he's
not a real major, but he married a
majors widow and took the title."-
