Andrew Carnegie, when talking
about the. Scotch dialect once, said:
Scotch dialect is lingo hard to I'M
derstand, and it often causes awkward
mistakes. Once an American divine
spent Christmas in a highland inn. On
Christmas morning he gave the maid
tip of sovereign, and he said, look
ing earnestly at her, for she was a
pretty maid:
"'Do you know, Kathleen, you are
very good looking lassie?'
'Of course Kathleen was pleased.
but, being modest, she blushed like a
rose and answered.:
"'Ah, ma! All, ma. But my kissing,
sir, is beautiful"
1.-THE divine frowned
"Leave the room, you wicked
young baggage" he 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

PhiIcsophic Tea.

The famous Adam Smith had all the
proverbial observation-disclosures of the

is told in Mr.. Fyvie's book, Noble
Danes and Notable Men of the Geor-
gian Era" "Mr. Damer, it appears,
called one morning upon the Scottish
philosopher just as he was preparing
his breakfast. AS they talked the
learned man took piece of bread and
butter In his hand and, after rolling
it round and round, popped it into his
teapot and poured the boiling water
upon it. Damer watched with quiet
amusement without drawing attention
to this peculiar proceeding, and pres
emily he had his reward, for when

This playwright is successful and pro

"One night the playwright imagined
that he heard n noise In his house"
said Mr.. BelascO. "He lighted lamp,
went downstairs, searched his library,

Il Why She Quit Her Job.

says Il writer In the World Wide Mag.

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 shadow of q cloud in
the domestic sky. But at teatime no
tea appeared; neither, in answer to
calls ut 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 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 a 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 ex-
postulated and asked why the servant
was leaving thus suddenly.
"Oh," replied Oharu, 'just as was
washing the plates yesterday l remem-
bered that Saito San, the pawnbroker,
wanted a wife. Therefore l went out
and married him."
