for Increasing Their War
Revenue While Idle.

GLASGOW, Oct l-(Speclal TO the Bee. }
Selling kisses at a shilling a kiss has

The girls hit upon the plan OF touring
Renfrewshire during the weekend in small
bands with collection boxes. When a party
of them reached Glasgow an old High
lander in charge Of weighing machine at
Broomlelaw thought he saw an opportunity
for improving the occasion. Look here,
my lassies," he said, hailing them. You
know how the duchess of Gordon raised
the famous regiment OF 'Kllties. To every
man who took the shilling she gave a kiss
II one Of you give me kiss I'll drop a
shilling in your box"
Promptly one Of the girls accepted his
challenge, and the exchange was duly
made. The cue thus given, the game was
played by them afterward with great sue.
