The leg exercises, of course, can be

 Copenhagen, Denmark. Is city of canals and cleanliness-a land of pure delight, free from beggars, organ grinders and stray dogs. The inhab- itants thereof are born courteous and seem never to have recovered from the habit.
 When a passenger boards a car In Copenhagen he exchanges greetings with the conductor. A gentleman on leaving the car usually lifts his hat in acknowledgment of a salute from that official. When a fare Is paid the con- ductor drops 1t into his cash box, thanks the passenger and gives him little paper receipt
 He offers change with a preliminary "Be so good" and the passenger ac- cepts with thanks. If. In addition. transfers are required complimentary exchanges go on indefinitely. Yet there Is always time enough in Copcn. hagen.-Caroline Domett in Four Track News

Scotland and Whisky.

"One of the grossest misconceptions from which Scotland sufrers," says a writer, ''is that her national drink is and always has been whisky. But this Is just as untrue, neither more nor less. as that the national garb of Scotland is the kilt. Whisky, like the kilt. is q purely Celtic or highland product. and up to the middle of the eighteenth cen tury 1t was just as unfamiliar in the lowlands as the clan tartans. It was only after the '45 that the highlanders began to settle in the lowlands and bring their whisky with them, but be fore that the national drink of the lowianders had been ale. Tam-o'- Shanter and Souter Johnny got 'roarin' fou' not on whisky, but on strong beer"
