ODD WAYS OF THE FISHER FOLK

Habite and Customs of Dweller* on
the East Coast of Scotland Are
Peculiar.
The fisher folk of the east coast of
Scotland have habits and customs dif

of the working classes.
Except In selling their fish or pur

when assistance Is required in the buy

It is seldom that a fisherman marries
other than a fisher lass, and even
should she allow her affections to wan
