automatically, with no diminution

had been firmly fixed, like ray gaae,
on the line of trees ahead, ran hith-

READY FOR PROMOTION.
A young rising Scotch artist, who
afterwards became a distinguished
President of the Royal Scottish Aca-
demy, was painting on one occasion
amidst the rugged scenery of the
West Highlands of Scotland, in close
proximity to an isolated and rudely -
built thatched cottage, such as are
usually inhabited by the hardy peas-
ant crofters of North Britain.
While engaged in giving the rough
stone exterior of his dwelling its
annual coat of whitewash, the High-
lander espied the future Academician
engaged on an iniportant picture,
and, thinking probably that land-
scape painting was but an elemen-
tary and poor use for the brush of
a youth who had nearly reached the
state of manhood, said to him -
"Man, yer a big callant to be pen -
tin' picturs; eau ye no' learn to
pent hooses?"
-With the sight of it I gained new
hope, and I flew through the grass
as if it had been gossamer. I did
not know wnether the iittle tree was
too small and rotten to sustain my
weight or not. There was no time
to think about that. I had but
one idea, and that waS to reach it.
"In that burst of speed I actually
outstripped the herd oflittle fiends
pursuing me. Then an -unforeseen
accident happened. The tree stood
in a little bare soft spot, two or
three yards in diameter. Running
against the pressure of the grass as

COMPLIVENTS FOR THE XING.
Again and for all time does the
Irishman show himself the Enest ar-
tist in witty compliments in the
world. These compliments to Ring
Edward from sons of the "sister is-
lewd*, which aro going the rounds
of the nn
4 glish press, are triumphs
over politieal rancor. Thus wit per-
forms a service of utmost import-
ante. ,
, rwo London journalists 'on their
,
way from Dublin to Cork, accosted
a. chaggy native at a Queen's Coen-
ty station.
"Well, Pat,what d think 1
o youo
the King of England now?"
"Xing of ' it?" replied
is
the Irishman and there stole over

.
"Sure, a,vic, yell want a viceroy
over there, I'm thinkinh Himself an *

Another quaint aneedote of the
same epoch-rnaking trip comes from
"Gala:way. An old dame in that
"City of the Tribes" who had spok-
en with the king was questioned as
to what she thought of his majesty.
She delivered herself of a long and
enthusiastic eulogy to the effect that
ewed ward the First of Ireland" Was
"a grand inan intirely," closing with
the remark that she had "only wan
thriding fault to find with him."
And what was this fault? '
"Ooh, sure, they kept the poor
man, so long in the Phaynix Park
beyent that they hove him talkin'
with a.sthrong Dublin accept!"
