Food in Scotland.

Now that the Scottish holiday sea-
son is just about to begin there is a
controversy in the north as to the
food provided by the boarding house
keepers and landladies of Scotland
for their patrons from England. 1t
seems that the Scots do not alter
their menus to suit the southerners
and that some of the southerners re-
sent this. They want more vegeta-
bles, for instance, and a greater va
riety of them. They demand turnip
tops "a luxury rarely consumed north
of the Tweed, save by Sheep, and
ask, why no spinach?" Also they
want heavy supper, likewise beer.
The complaining controversialists
say it is case of ham and eggs for
breakfast, amidday dinner and a high
tea to conclude the meals of the day.
AS for beer, they report that Scottish
landladies at the coast resorts look
askance at people who wish beer sent
in. So far the only reply of Scotland
to the fault-fnders is that when they
are in Scotland they should eat what
the Scots eat and get their beer out
side.-London Chronicle.

TRIALS OF ELDEST DAUGHTER
Her Position In the Family Some
times Results In Making Her More
or Less of a Drudge.

I'm glad I'm not the Oldest" re-
why, Susan has to do almost every
thing at home; father thinks she ought
to take the burden of housekeeping
of mothers hands, and my brother
wants her to wait on him as if she
were servant-he knows better than
to ask me to do something for him
says I'm spoiled and you just bet I'm
glad I'm the youngest grill"
Too often the oldest daughter is
made drudge, and there is not the
proper amount of respect and regard
for the girl whose labors take the
place of maid. She is expected to
run errands, help with the care and
amusement of the children, teach
them lessons. What wonder. that
such girl will take the first oppor-
tunity for work as means to escape
from these unpaid labors, or accept
an offer of marriage in order to live
apart from family who do not even
try to make her home life comfort
able. and pleasant.
But / am glad to say that not al
ways is the position of ''elder daugh-
ter such an unappreciated one; in
some households she is beloved and
respected, at the same time expected
to fulfil whatever duties may fall to
her lot. Her sisters and brothers are
taught that they must return any serv-
ice she may perform for them with
due appreciation, if nothing more, and
they soon learn that her place is an
honored one, instead of being unen-
viable.-Pittsburgh Dispatch.
