Some years ago there lived in Perth, Scotland, a man of convivial habits, well known by his Christian name, Jamie. One dark night an acquaintance found Jamie lying at the foot of an outside stair. “Is that you, Jamie?” asked the acquaintance, in a voice of the greateat astonishment. “Aye. it’s me,” replied Jamie, in a tone of complete resignation. “Have you fa’en doon the stair?” was the next question. “Aye! I fell doon; but I was cornin’ doon, whether or no.”
