Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Humorous Chap-Books, Vol. 1: Scotland Local journal of which he was editor - the Paisley Magazine for In the article referred to, Motherwell reveals one secret of his failure. After explaining, with a groan, that he had at one time possessed a fair assortment of the original editions of many popular penny histories, the enraged editor goes on to say, but some unprinci pled scoundrel has relieved us of that treasure. There are a number of infamous creatures, who acquire large libraries and curious things by borrowing books they never mean to return, and some not unfre quently slide a volume into their pocket at the very moment you are fool enough to busy yourself in showing them some nice typographic gem, or bibliographic rarity. These dishonest and heartless villains ought to be cut above the breath whenever they cross the threshold.

A worthy old lady adds "Cauld kail het, humph! tastes as if the dishcloot had been boiled in it." Knowing that the flavour of that necessary though despised article of kitchen use cannot be eradicated from every page, I yet hope to provide some tasty and substantial farin' from the wealth of good things that abound, and which are discovered through following the proverbial Scotchman's advice to his son, when about to emigrate - "Aye be speirin'." The most successful book dealing with Scottish life and character has been Dean Ramsay's "Reminiscences," first given as a lecture in 1857, and then published in book form. "The Laird of Logan," "Thistledown," and quite a crowd of others have been devoted to the recording of humorous Scottish sayings, etc., and the weekly newspapers are always giving to the world some new Scottish "joke," which in due course is trotted out by some minister at a soiree, and compels another non-original remark - "There is nothing new under the sun!"
