HOW'S YOUR HIP-POCKET?
[By Robt. MacWhirter, K.B.G.C.)
As I was saying, the other day, MacPherson, he was kinda grumphy and most awfu' sweer to be just ordinary civil. Bothered w' pains here and there and terribly lasaitu- dinous, he said.
"Now, look here. Mac" says I, kinda strict-like, "there's no use sitting there wl' u hinging hip like a motherless foal. Why don't you go and see a doctor?"
No, he wouldna' bother about a doctor. He knew one o' the chem- ist lado that would for him up wi a bottle. Ay, Mac's like that. A bit of
"Man, Mac," says I, "I'm sure that's at the bottom o' your trouble. You dream ower much and suffer from inhibitlons."
But he wasna" having onything o' the kind. I ate as much cheese as him, especially at the Club, where it could be got for the mare asking. You see you, have to be patient wi', Mac., Ay, you've just got to bide your time. He refused to tell me at first but by and by it all came out.
this morning just before the boy
"Ay," says he, "I had a dream
brought in my tea. I was being chased by a policeman in a kilt and when I looked back it had turned into a Chinese Jion but the funny thing was its jawa; they worked, sideways, no' up and down like a man's.".
"Ay, and what happened then?" "Oh, nothing much. I woke up. Let me see, no, I counted its teeth Bolabie and chockful of and funny enough it hadna' an Trade Unionism until he's got to even set. There were just exactly put his hand in his pocket. So far seventeen o' them.”

"Man," says I, “you've been tak- Ing yon bismuth mud mixtures for the last twenty years. You've got the wrong end o' the stick altoge ther. Your trouble's mental. Ye think ower much."
"Ay," aald he, kinda' sheepish- like, I thought.
"Where?"
"Right on the hip pocket." "Where ye keep your money?” "Ay."
"Ah," says I, "I got at the root
