STERN PULPIT-CRITICS

First Scot. “Fat sort o’ minister hae ye gotten, Geordie?”

Second Ditto. “Oh, weel, he’s no muckle worth. We seldom get a glint o’ him. Sax days o’ th’ week he’s envees’ble, and on the seventh he’s encomprehens’ble!!”

“GOOD INTENTIONS”

Scot (on Waterloo Bridge). “Hech! To think I save a bawbee every time I cross this bonny brig! I’ll just pit it in the plate the next time I gang t’ the kirk!”
