That Canny Scot.
f Known everywhere as the canniest Scot north of the Tweed, Sandy Me Cute astonished a solicitor one day by walking into his oflice and squandering six - and - eightpence recklessly simply in order to make some trivial inquiry about the law of the landlord and tenant. Ah, but there was a reason behind Sandy's • question. "Now that you've heard the case," he asked presently, "ye think it worth fighting, do ye ?" "Worth fighting, man ?" replied the solicitor. "Why, I'm almost prepared to guarantee a. favourable verdict !" Sandy nodded his head wisely. "Ah, weel," he remarked, " I'm much obliged tae law this time; for, ye see, the case I've laid ,before ye is ray opponent's."
