Show Her Own Business. A story illustratiiiK the reticence of the Scotch regarding their private alTaii'H was once told by Ian Maclaren. A train was at a railroad station, when a porter put li is head into a car and called out: "Anyone in this car Tor Doun? Change for Doun! Anyone for Doun?" No one moved; and in a few minutes the train was speeding along, not to stop again foi nearly an hour. Then an old Scotch woman turned to a lady sitting near her and said, "I'm for JJouu, but I'd no tell that man so." |
