"Look." said the baron, with an as: sumption of severity; "I hardly know what to do, but you can tak' six months." . "I can't take that my lord: it's too much," said the prisoner respectfully. but firmly. "I can't take It Your lordship sees 1 didn't steal very much, J after all." Tbe baron indulged In one of bis low, chuckling laughs before replying. "Well, tbats vera true. Ye didn't steal much." he said. "Well, then, ye can tak" four months. Will that do four months?" ! "Nay, my lord, but I can't take that, neither," was the reply. Then tak' three." "That's nearer tbe mark, my lord." the prisoner said approvingly. "But I'd rather you made It two, If you will be so kind." "Vera well. then, tak two." said the judge, with tbe air of one who is pleased to have done tbe right thing at last "And, mind, don't come again. 1 If yon do Til give ye well.
