Unjustly Accused.

Andrew Carnegie, when talking
about the Scotch dialect once, said:
Scotch dialect is a lingo hard to I'M
derstand, and it often causes awkward
mistakes. Once an American divine
spent Christmas in highland inn. On
Christmas morning he gave the maid
a tip of sovereign, and he said, look
ing earnestly at her, for she was q
pretty maid:
"'Do you know, Kathleen, you are
a very good looking lassieY
"Of course Kathleen was pleased,
but, being modest, she blushed like a
rose and answered:
"'Ah, nal All, nal But my kissing,
sir, is beautiful
"The divine frowned.
"'Leave the room, you wicked
young baggager lie said sternly.
He didn't know, you see, that mod
est Kathleen had been simply praising
in her highland dialect the superior
charms of her cousin Janet of Pee
bleS."

Settled the Sacristan.

A matter of fact sacristan Of the Ca
thedral of Berlin once wrote the king
of Prussia this brief note:
Sire-1 acquaint your majesty first, that
there are wanting books of psalms for the
royal family. l acquaint your majesty.
second. that there wants wood to warm
the royal seats l acquaint your majesty,
third, that the balustrade next the river,
behind the church, is become ruinous.
SCHMIDT.
Sacrist of the Cathedral.
The reply of the king was not that of
gracious majesty" Its stiff formal
tty in initiating the style Of the sacris-
tan probably was not taken by the re-
ceiver as complimentary to him:
acquaint you, Herr Sacrist Schmidt,
first, that those who want to sing may
buy books. Second, 1 acquaint Herr Sa-
crist Schmidt that those who want to be
warm must buy wood. Third, I acquaint
Herr Sacrist Schmidt that 1 shall not
trust any longer to the balustrade next
the river. And I acquaint Herr Sacrist
Schmidt, fourth, that 1 will not have any
more correspondence with him.

The ShiIlaIah.
FREDERICK.

The shillalah is no raw limb of
tree. 1t is almost as much a work of
art as we'll balanced cricket bat.
The old shillalahs were as carefully
looked after by their loving owners as
is a rife in the wilds: Cut from the
sturdiest of young blackthorns and
showing as little taper as an ebony
ruler, it was weighed with lead or iron
at the end nearest the grip so that its
center of gravity was about four-fifths
of the way from the hitting end.
When properly seasoned by being
kept in the neighborhood Of the farm
oven for a few months 1t became a
thing of supple steel. And the proper
pronunciation of the name of this fear
some weapon is the melodious one of
"shiltnfly," with the accent on the
"ail."-London Chronicle.

"One Christmas day, hundreds of
years ago at sea, ship in q storm

off her cook, her crate of chickens,
her turkeys-in word, the whole raw
material of her Christmas dinner.
But the sailors were determined to
have at least some sort of Christmas
pudding. They knew nothing about
cooking, and they drew lots for their
new cook. The lot fell to the boat
SWANS mate.
This chap fished up cookbook
from the bottom Of his sea chest. He
ran over the pudding recipes and chose
one that began:

Why She Quit Her Job.

A lady of my acquaintance In Tokyo,
says writer in the World Wide Mag
azine, possessed n valuable servant of
somewhat mature years who rejoiced
in the poetic name of Oharu San
THE Honorable Miss Spring.
One day Miss Spring brought in
luncheon as usual. All seemed serene;
there. was not a shadow of a cloud in
the domestic sky. But at teatime no
tea appeared; neither, in answer to
calls at first patient and afterward
impatient, did Oharu. After awhile
the lady went herself to the back re-
gions and found-desolation The char
coal box was filled with gray ashes,
the kettle cold. Half the luncheon
plates lay immersed In a bowl of
soapy water; the other half stood on
the sink ready to be put away. Oharu
herself simply was not.
The next morning, however, she re-
appeared, very much on her company
manners, with clean kimono and her
hair done in shining bun to denote
the state of a matron, demanding the
fragment of wages due to her since the
beginning of the month. The lady eY-
postulated and asked why the servant
was leaving thus suddenly.
"Oh," replied Oharu, ''just as I was
washing the plates yesterday l rcmem-
bered that Saito San, the pawnbroker,
wanted u wife. Therefore l went out
and married him."
