In the animal kingdom it is observed that no creatures are favorites ; but a certain compensation balances every gift, and every defect. That is a truth expounded' in his Essay on Com- pensation m which Emerson puts it down for a fact tliat;oxeverything one has missed he has gained some- thing else. When Nature cleprives,a. person of the 'sense of sight;' it is an immeasurable loss, yet that same Na- ture, once thought cruel, .now, benefic- ent, makes up the deficiency by an ex- traordinary _endowment along some .other line. So often it is that finest of compen- sations, the talent for music. There is no doubt that music is one of the most suitable professions for -the blind. In. a Government report recently issued in Britain on the welfare of the blind; it is stated that therg are almost 1000— 947 to be exact -persons in the United Kingdom thus afflicted who are fol- lowing the professions of music, mak- ing- . of musical instruments, piano tuning, etc. There are at least one hundred blind organists ` in Britain, many of whom are chola masters as well. It is expected that these num- bers will he materially increased owing to tliejfact that a greater amount of attention is now being given to music in the institutions for the blind. The aforesaid report shows from an investigation among several hundred persons that 86 per cent. of the men and 81 per cent; of the womenaro known to have been'suceessfui in their musical occupations. This report sug- gests tlee desirability for a blind per- son to" combine the 'position of Organist,; 0r music teacher, or profes- sional singer as the ,case may be with that of pianoforte tunnrg,'so thee in the event of a. falling off in lie Profes- sional work he can•resortto the More practical occupation, or the other way around, as circumstances dictate. «- - Fertilizing .the soil increases farm labor efficiency and adds greatly to the farmer's net :income.

The above extract, of one of Donald Macgilvray's very rare epistolary ef- forts, addressed to an intima'ee was serving the purpose of a safety -valve, a ^ letting off of a little of that so tightly bottled -up seatimcnt which had been.consaliring him' all suninier. 1 -loving penned the phrases in the comfortable sanctuary of the Rock- Spiel smoking -room, o>m, the unusual labor solacedby pulls Froin a very superior brand of cigar, the stricken youth, leaning back in his well -padded chair,. actually breathed more freely. It _ was a quite unusual alacrity that he made his preparations for de- parture, and gave the final orders. He was going hopefully, as he had told his confident, Jack, and yet, in trepidation. And over there, at.Ardloch, he was being expected hopefullytoo, but like- wise in trepidation. The few days which elapsed between the explanation with Duncan and Mr. Macgilviay's ' return to Balladrochit had been employed by Fenella in a sort of generaltidying up of her thoughts and sensations. The dis- covery that for years past she .had been the beacon -star of a man's life, could not but impress her, despite the of that man,or per- haps' e station . 11 f it. And yet—flat- teredbecause o, z y tered. varsity notwithstanding—the dominating impression oi remained a: disagreeable one. For that, urgent appeal of Duncan s, that vehement condemnation of a course of action which had hitherto appeared to her both harmless and natural, had startl- ed into life • some new consciousness.
