" THE WEONG SMELL . —A Freemason in a somewhat unsteady condition set out to attend a meeting of his ' Lodge . ' He arrived , knocked at the door , and gave the password . The guardian , who was a new hand , placed his nose to the keyhole instead of his ear .

The visitor repeated the password— ' Abstinence —a second time , but the door still remained unopened . ' Why don't you open the door ? Haven ' t I got the right word ? ' shouted the infuriated Mason . ' Ay , ' responded Sandy , through the keyhole , ' you ' ve got the richt word , mon ; but you ' ve got the wrong smell ! ' "
