Cheap Charity

One' of those , toil-hardened, truehearted chaps, often read of in romances, made hia appearance in the tr> e- theother d>iy, and his sympathies wee at onee^aiwustsd by the si^ht. of three or four/dd men, standing about looking for work. " I'll be hanged it isn't bard on you," he replied, jrhen they told him that they hadn't had any work for a month. "How would you like some oysters?"* They smacked their lips by way of reply, and he gathered up a crowd of eight, marchad them to a restaurant, and ordered oysters for each one. " It just does my soul good to see i them eat !" he said to the owuer of the place as the eight got to work. "Yes, it's a beautiful sight," was the reply. " It makes me feel good in here," coatinued the stranger, layiug his hand on his heart. "A good deed brings its own reward," was the soft answer of the restaurateur, as he calculated profits "I can't rest here — I must do further good,'' said the big hearted man, and he rushed out and brought in three cabmen, a chimney-sweep, two b.oys, and aa old woman, and ordered more oysters. Thefifteen people went for oyster soup in a manner to amaze, and their generous friend nudged the restaurateur in the ribs and said : — " Just look at 'em ! Oh, that I could. feed' all the poor. " You are a good man, and Heavsn will reward you," replied the proprietor, as he filled up the dishes "-again. The stranger said he wanted to "bring in just five more, so as to say that * he had fed an even score, and be rushed . out alter them, while the restaurateur sent out for more oysters an'l bread.

We will Vll them- the secret by explaining that Dawson is the name of a large distiller in Diifftowhi Glenlivet district, whose establishment dates for nearly one hun--6 red years.. The firm put up a high v •■'.-> Scotch, whisky called "Dawson's 3\ : IVctton," which is now having a phe-n--menial run in all the Australian colo* ii---. it being the principal whisky drank hi all the leading hotels and clubs in i hese. colonies.
