This lunatic asylum story comes from
Glasgow: Two councilors of that city
were taken over a large asylum the other
day by one of the patients, a safe roan.
He had led them to a room to display a
view from a window, when some one
shut the door, with its self acting lock,
and the three men were prisoners. The
atient alone preserved his composure.
fhile the councilors clamored to be re­
leased he remarked:
•'If I were you, I would be q u ie t”
No help coming, the councilors grew
desperate. Beads of perspiration stood
on their brows, and they fairly yelled.
“ If I were you," repeated the pathmt
soothingly, “ I would keep quiet.”
“ But w e’re no daft,” pleaded cue of
the visitors.
“ Hoots, mon, that's wbat I »aid mascl*
