It Ims been loft to a German news; paper, the Deutsche 'Allgembinc' 54eitung, to urge, under the heading “Stop these Scots stories,'’ that an end should be made with the jokes about, tin: alleged niggardliness of _ Scotsmen. The suggestion gomes from a reader of the newspaper, but the prominence given to it suggests that it finds editorial favor. Perusal of the letter shows, rather' surprisingly, that its writer is not inspired so much by the feeling that the Jokes are bad or that their theme is tedious as by concern for the feelings of the Scots. . ,
