not in the , least intoxicated, and quite catch at them. One's stockings are apt
approved of Quentin's abstinence, to bunch and feel uncomfortable on a
which ' be sal was best for lads. He
also said early hours were good for lads,
and about one in the morning dismissed
Quentin to the loft, telling him tic)
sleep . well and in the morning he
should come with 'him) and find good
service where he could see the steadfast
stars in the , pink -tinted blue of the
zenith. They reminded . him of Sill
Eda : they brought him to himself.
Wouldhereally prefer this life that the
piper pictured --that of a 'nobleman's
retainer? Was this evening as really
delightful to him as the hours spent
looking for specimens in natural his-
tory and studying them ? Did he en-
joy the skirling pipes, the feast, the
dance, as he enjoyed books, with their
marvels of travel, history, science?
Could he give up that dear idea of
learning other tongues and reading
books written in them ? No ! a thous-
and times no ! He felt at home on the
moors and in the glens reading 'the
handwriting of God. His soul it as fed
by the wonders of creation, lifted up
into a calm he had but half understood,
when he traced the hand of Providence.
These thoughts filled hie heart; while
they did not take full clear form, the
certaintyeat which he arrived was that
he mustq go on to Glasgow to Mr.
Murdoch. But suppose the _piper
should prove as vigorous in wanting his
company as had been the "bone -wife"?
It would not be so easy to escape the
aroused giant. Quentin concluded to
slip off while the giant took his morn-
ing nap. Early, therefore, he rose and
crept out of hie loft. No one was stir-
ring, but he waited, and at last found a
young girl coming to the cows' "byre:"
He told her that he must be going, as
he was on his way to his "maister at.
Glasgow" and feared he had been
wrong to turn from his route even for a
few hours. He asked her to give his
thanks to the farmer for his hospitality.
and to the piper for his kindness, and,
the girlhaving undertaken to deliver
his messages, he set off at a round pace
and spent the next fpur or five hours in
putting as much distance as he could
between himself and the Highlander.
Owing to the divergence he had made,
Quentin missed his way, and it was
night when he reached Balloch-Nim-
arle, where he must pass the Sabbath.
He stopped at one or two houses, asking
if he could get shelter for a couple of
nights, but, meeting only close ques-
tions- and hints about "runaway 'Laren -
flees," he concluded to keep out - of
people's way. He then came to the
kirk standing in the kirkyard, Which
was full of graves. In the centre was
one tomb made of a slab of -red sand-
stone set on -four little stone pillars
three feet high ; these stood on another
slab of sandstone, and Quentin, who
was entirely without fears or supersti-
tions, considered this tomb would be
an ex:ellent shelter for the night. The
stones were yet warm with the sun -heat
absorbed in the day. He wrapped(
himself,- in his plaid, put his bundle
under his head,- ate his -last oatcake,
said his prayers, and went to sleep
wondering if all the people buried about
him were in heaven, and if the occu-
pants of the tomb knew that he was -
sheltered by it. It was quite late *hen
he woke, and, as the morning was
fresh, he removed his quarters to the
upper slab of ,the tomb, to lie in the
warmth of the sun. He concluded to
stay where he was until service -tune,
and then go into the kirk. He had
nothing to' eat, but his abstemious
training renderedthatbut a small dia-
advantage for a meal or two. The
morning was glorious, the birds sang
round him, and daisies and hawksweed
boomed direr all the place- of graves.
He was so happy that he broke into
a whistle clear and strong as a blackbird
or a thrush. Then he remembered that
n Noel had espec-
ially
was Sabbath, bbath a d
this
P
ially warned him not to . whistle on
Sunday.. He was silent for half an hour
when- once more his feelings got the
better : of him, and his musical young
voice broke out in=
As I cam' in by Garroch lan'
An' down by Netherha'
There was fifty thousan' Hielan men.
A-marchin' to Harlow.
'Yes, we was near, an' near eneuch,
An' we their numbers saw ; .
There was fifty thousan' Hielan'raen
A -marching to Harlow." -
Just at this verse he - remembered
that it was as wicked to ring songs as
to whistle on Sunday, and, overcome
by contrition, he was dumb for another
half hour. But his bubbling vitality
must have vent. -
" Ony way," he said, "it will no be
weekit to sing psaums.That is what I
suld ha' dune at first ;y� and once more
his voice rose above the graves like an
echo -of their peace and
trust :
"The Lord my shepherd is ;
He doth my wants supply ;
He leadeth me the quiet fields
Aud gentle waters by. "
He was so occupied in his singing
that he heard no step nor detected any
one near, until an old woman in a black
gown and white niuteh was close at his
side.
" Save us, laddie ! . Wha are ye !
Ye sing like a lav'rock in the lift. It
does my heart gude to hear ye. I ne'er
see ye before."
"No," said Quentin ; "I was no here
before. - I'm travelin' after my maister,
an', as I :cannot travel on the Lord's
day, I aleepit here an' am waitin' for
kirk to open."
" Ye sleepit here ? Save us ! An'
ye are a bonny laddie that will no
break the Lord's day. An' yer voiceis
like a throetle's. The kirk will ° open
snne, lad; ye shall come in wi' me,
an' after services ye shall gae to my

How to Walk Well.
A writer in the Phrenological Journal
gives the following advice, in an article
entitled " How to Walk Well." " A
great deal depends," he says, " on shoe
leather, if we would get comft,rt and
avoid injury. We are in a lively cli•
mate, which does not encourage us to
wear the beautiful, sensible sandals of
long tramp. But if, before starting,
you soak your feet, fore acid aft, so that
they are cased in lather, they will keep
cool and easy under you from - morning
till night. " Break an egg in your
boots ?" said James T. Fields, who was
a boy all his life. But, whichever you
do, you will find it a great ; help and
convenience, though the prescription
may seem queer to the novice."'
Other Men's Sons.
A saloon -keeper sat in his easy chair
And talked of his fixtures and store,
He told of the mirrors and paintings so fine,
And the plateglass in window and door. -
He.talke=I of its carvings and marble floor,
And called it a "palace" within,,
The poor heart, whose son was brought home
to her drunk,
She called it a palace of sin).
He told of his tables where cards were played,
" But never for money, you know,"
" Just innocent games, that world please all the .
boys,
And would keep them from groggeries low."
For - his was a High License 'legal' place, -
• And run just "according- to law."
His 'high moral.. character,really so fine,
It had not a shadow or flaw.-
Or so one might judge who his license read ;
And it seemed, as his glib tongue ran,
'Twos really an honor for parents to have
Their sons ruined by such a man.
He told of refinement ; for those who came
Were young men of the "upper class."
Who ought to rejoice for so cosy a place,
To partake of a " social glass."
And he " knew when a man had enough,
The office of judge he assumed,
Arid "sent him in time to his sheltering home,"
(When cash was all gone, 'tis presumed).
Some one who got a ward edgeways at last,
And a question squeezed into the space,
Said that he presumed the saloon -keeper's son
Spent most of his time in the place-? -
" My son—well, no—not exactly—I guess
I would not allow him in there,"
He answered and hastened to speak of Maud S.,
How he " thought her a fast -trotting mare .'
And the fine young son of ;the merchant prince,
Who had played his "innocent games'
Till the spirit of gambling his soul possessed,
As the fire -fiend enwraps in flames.
Who had drank his liquors in mirrored halls,
And had found, alas ! but too true,
That they had just as surely maddened the
e
brain,
As the drinks of the groggeries do.
And more ; for in groggeries mean and low,
He never would once have been ;
'Tis the 'high-toned' places with .marble floors
That allure by their ether and sheen—
'When be heard this, he said, "If all these
things '
Are for eons of other men kept ! '
If he set his snares for the innocent ones,
And sowed tares while their guardians slept.
" He is as black as the master he servos so 11,411 ;
And from now and forever more, -
I will seek- the way of the people of - d,
And neer again darken his door."-

Why There Were no Ghoe'ts.
A certain man, who was lately plied,
dwelt in the country, far from the Iroise
of any town. It chanced one night that
his wife fell sick, and, being ignorant
of the ways of women folk, he mounted
his cart -horse and galloped exceedingly
fest toward the town in search of a
skilful leech: ' - -
On the roadl ,he met a gaunt and
withered hag, who asked him :
" Whither so fast, good man ?"
" To get a leech for my wife who is
sick unto death." •
" Know ye how to tell a good doctor ?"
"Nay, mother ; I take the first which
Gnd leadeth me to."
Whereupon the ancient dame gave
him a sprig of Euphrasy and said :
" Hold this to thy eyes when thou
locekest at a doctor's house and thou
wilt straightway see the ghosts of these
who have died from his bungling.
Take thou the doctor with the fewelet
ghosts." - . -
Thereafter whenever that man came
to a doctor's house he held the mystic
herb to his eyes, and odd nooks ! a fear-
ful sight met his clairvoyant gaze.
Arouhd every doctor's door shivered a
ghastly crowd of' uneasy ghosts, and,
what seemed strange to that man, the
larger and more comfortable the house
the greater was ethe - awesome troop at
his door., -
Through the deserted streets he gal,
loped from doctor's house to doctor's
house, seeking in vain for one whose
gates were not besieged by uneasy
spirits. At length in a quiet lane he
espied a modest house bearing a doctor's
shingle, and lo l but a solitary ghost
sat•uppon the door step.
'' .Here, by God's grace," quoth the
man, " is the doctor for me."
1- But little time had passed, I ween, be-
fore that stout -horse was bearing the
man and his physician along : the road
to the sick woman.
When they were well on toward the
end of their journey the doctor smiled a
pleasant smile to see, and said : .;
IW
%tde

chance you called on me, for know
have only been practising medicine. two
days, and your good wife will be the
second patient I have treated."

better omitted.
An. Appeal for Girls.
Whose business is it .that so many
young girls Coming to the city to work
are left friendless and more or less ex
posed to degrading and pernicious in-
fluences. She comes a stranger to work
perhaps in some lady's kitchen or nurs-
ery ; she gets little time or opportunity
to look around and choose her acquaint-
ances. She has social instincts like thei
rest of the human race and getsi
acquainted with the girl next door as
they hang out their clothes and grate-
fully accepts her invitation to go out
with her on her next " evening out."
Her new acquaintance is pleasant and
chatty and she dikes her first-rate and
the lonesome homesick feeling isn't -
nearly so strong as she goes back to her
work.
Her mistress is pleasant and kind, but
she can't talk with her with that free-
dom that her social nature demands so
she goes gladly out with the new girl.
They go down the street leisurely
with a refreshing setae of freedom, look
jog in at the shop windows, going to the
Post Office and stopping into a store or
two for a bit of trading. They meet twos
or three girls to, whom she is introduced.]
r•
One of them gives a lively account of a "swell with a fellow which
reminds another girl of one equally in-
teresting. It seems funny, and the
stranger girl likes fqn ; she gets intro-
-duoed to two or three "swell .fellows." -
Her companions laugh and talk freely
then, but she feels a little r
served,sledoes
not liketo be unreserved
with gentlemen, she thinks the lively
chat of her companions very enjoyable
and wishes she felt like joining in it but
thinks she will try - when she is better
acquainted.
One of the young men she thinks the
finest looking and most distinguished
appearing of any one she has ever met,
and is further impressed when her com-
panions inform her that he is the son of
one of the rich men of the town. She
feels exceedingly pleased and flattered
to be told that he had been very anxious
for the introduction and had said that
she was a "real daisy." Anyway she
hopes she' will meet him again. The
home -sickness is mostly gone now and
she looks forward with delightful antici-
pation to her next evening out.
There is no use of trying to trace the
dangerous path which she is more than
liable to drift into in this way with ni
one to help her to avoid the evil of care-
less companions. She is apt to do what
she sees the other girls do, to say what
she hears the other girls say, and act as
her companions do.
She may chance to fall in with good
girl companions but good discreet girls
are apt to be reserved at first and care-
ful in the choice of newt acquaintances,
while the careless,impulsive, thoughtless
and therefore dangerous girls are easier
of access and naturally the first to fall
in with. - -
Now out of this comes a few serious
questions ; who is to blame and what
can be done to prevent these girls from
feeding their natural social appetites
upon such unwholesome food.
It surely lies with the mistresses of
these girls to help in the matter much
-by taking pains to find in some way or
other suitable girl companions for such
as come to her strangers, and thus take
a long step in the way of keeping a good
moral girl good and true. It seems
worth while when by a little wise influ-
ence, advice and .wholesome°restraint in
the beginning the, forming of depraved
and careless tend encies is easier to pre-
vent than to check or control later on.

homes, remembering that we are our

The Pig and: his Pen.
When speaking of the pig we do not
mean the two -legged kind,but that four -
legged porcine creature -which squeals
when hungry and grunts and grows fat
when well fed. Give him sweet skim-
med milk and corn meal enough, and he
will not complain—provided you give
him a pen that he can keep - clean in.
Let one end be partitioned off, roofed
over, and well bedded with straw for
his sleeping apartment. He will take
to it and avoid materially' fouling it.
Let the open portion be floored ' with
2x4 -inch scantling, set on edge, and one-
half to three-quarters of an inch apart.
Let the pen be high enough from the
ground to permit of your putting some
kind of absorbent under the open, floor.
Two or three feet of broken _ corn cobs
make a - retentive absorbent—nothing
better. This is easily done on a side
hill, as you can feed from the ground on
the upper side. Common land plaster
freely used, make a deodorizer. In
such a pen, pigs will keep clean - and
bright. The droppings -will all be trod-
den through the cracks in the floor.

BY a timely use of Ayer's Hair Vigor
This preparation has no equal as i
dressing. It keeps the scalp clean, cool
and healthy, and preserves the color
fullness, and beauty of the hair.
I was rapidly becoming bald and
boray ; but after using two or three
ttles of Ayer's Hair Vigor my hail
grew thick and glossy and the original
color was
restored. Melvin Aldrich/
Canaan Centre, N. H. •
"Some time ago I lost all my hair in
consequence of measles. - After due
waiting, no new growth appeared. I
then used Ayer's ilTair Vigor and my -
hair grew
Thick and Strome,
It has _apparently come to stay. The
Vigor is evidently a great aid to nature."
—J.
B. Williams, Floresville, Texas.
"I have used Ayer's Hair Vigor for
the past four or five years and find it a
most satisfactory dressing for the hair.
It is all I could desife, being harmless,
causing the hair to retain its natural
color, and requiring but a small quantity
to render the hair easy to arrange."-•�
Mrs. M. A. Bailey, 9 Charles street,
Haverhill, Mass.
" I have been using Ayer's Hair Vigor
