LIFE IN A WEST HIGHLAND VILLAGE Few people save fisher's, or shoot- ing tenants, know the little West Highland village of N—. It is 15 miles from the nearest station, and lies as it were between the knees of the hills. Sometimes in winter, when the culverts are swept away by the burns in spate, N— is cut off from the outside world; once meal and flour had to be brought to the inhabitants on horseback, by the old road on the other side of the loch, which is more of a sheep track than a bridle -path. The village is very scattered, and though composed of 35 different houses there is a distance of as much as five miles between them. But this makes life simpler, for as Mactavish is the name of five distinct families in no ways related, sobriquets of dif- ferent sorts can be added on. For instance there are the Mactavishes of the Braes, and they are blood roy- al. One member of the family, San- dy, by name, married someone of inferior birth, but his sisters saw to it that there should be no children to TIRED AND RUN DOWN Lydia E.

I..^ 4ey l $[ has differe�lt valuablet�,�, tb, i , an '".41e2y ter a wife; with ad : left. ws herold-age pension and''t,at of her son killed in the war, pay for a maid from. the I4ewia, who is glad to receive 30a. a the, and her hoard. A ,Bard Life - In N-_- the old -age pension is seen at its beat, for there, where rent is as low as $2 a year, water and fuel free, rates 6s. in the pound, it is possible for old folk to live on the, 10s. a week.` It has meant that many an old body has been a wePome guest in a house that otherwise could not have afforded to support him, or her; thus to -day the old people are well looked after. One old man called Rovy Barn (The White-haired) had when he married his wife made out -that his age nearly approximated hers, and thus, though he has long been eligible for an old age• pension, pride forbids the disclosure of his age. She awaits with longing the time . when the regular 10a. a week will help to supplement their diet of potatoes grown on their croft and milk begged from neighbors. It may sound to' the uninitiated'that life must be easy and sweet in this hill village, but there is the other side of the picture—namely, that wages are correspondingly low. A keeper probably does not get more than £60 a year, plus tips from shooting ten- ants. Of course he has his croft, where he grows potatoes, corn and hay, and has his cows, sheep and hens. All the corn and hay grown is used for the horses and other ani- mals. Generally the keepers supply the lodge with milk, cream, butter, and eggs during the season. Some may keep wild cattle on the hills, which they can sell profitably when full grown. And while it is true that fuel in the shape of wood and peat is free for the cutting, and water for the fetching, the crofters have to pay heavily on •all goods brought by rail and carrier. Thus a loaf of bread is 61d. there, butter 2s. 3d. the pound, meat Is. 4d., and a cake of pipeclay, four of which could be bought in a town for a Id., costs 2d. there. Flour is 3s. 6d. a stone, oatmeal, 8s.; thus there is 2d. or 3d. added on to every commodity. Oat- meal forms the chief food, either in the form of porridge, brose, or oat- cake, with the additions of milk, cream, and croudy. Fresh girdle scones with "butter from the churn and trout from the burn" was the old Highland idea of luxury. The peaty water infuses excellent tea, and the people will have none of the cheap teas, but the best at 3s. the pound. Ghillieing. Besides the work on the crofts, there is sometimes work to be had repair- ing the roads or making new paths for the tenant. In summer many of the men are employed as ghillies on the loch, for which they receive 8s. a day, while those who are employed for deer -stalking get a trifle more. The ghillies and the keepers dress in thick tweeds and long hhnd knitted stockings with smart diced tops and good boots. Commercial travellers say that it is no use offering the people cheap stuff, for they will not have it; they would rather pay more and obtain a good article. Many of them are well made, handsome fel-. lows, with the dignity and good breed- ing of the true Celt. The visitors, in contrast, often look poor, shilpit creatures, less well built and develop- ed. Highland Welcome. Whoever calls on the crofters is made to feel that he or she has come at the best possible time; whether the kitchen is full of the shearing party, or the hay is just being got in, or the turnips hoed, or the baby nurs- ed, the welcome is royal. A herd boy rises to greet one with "Wasna it herself I was wishing to see?" What- ever the hospitality is that is offered, it is done with a grace;' the musician of the house (self-taught) plays, the story teller tells his best yarn and the lady feeds one on home-made scones, butter and jam. In N— many of the women still spin the wool for their husbands' stockings. All—man or Maid—can read the skies and know the ways of birds and ani- mals. One woman this summer told a very curious tale. She was driving her cow home to the byre when she noticed a wee bird start up and fly across the river; as jt was flying across a salmon jumped at it unsuc- cessfully. A keeper, particularly in- ested in bird love, said he had never heard of such a thing before; perhaps it was because there were less flies on the water than he had ever re- lnem6ered. He said if it had been a pike he would not have been surpris- ed, for he had caught one once with a great bulge from behind, and a friend opened the pike's mouth and caught hold of a webbed foot; after a few moments they pulled out an al- most fully fledged duck. Trout also have been known to attack ducks, and even to make their feet bleed, but as far as the keepers at N— knew no salmon before had risen for a bird. But, as the keeper said, "our knowl- edge of the ways of fish is not exact; we cannot ascertain their customs and habits; at best we make a surmise." With Highland intonatian,' f`knowl- edge" is a lofty word full of nobility and reality, while "ascertain" sug- gests searching and watching, by day and by night, in the mists and in starlight, by the aid not only of books but by rich and ripe experience. A Lonely Life for the Women. The crofters e s to N— are bilingual, speaking both Gaelic and English with fluency. Some of the old folk have not much English; old Macken- zie, when asked how his wife is, in- variably replies, "She is not very good the day.". Old Mackay tells a story of a degenerate man who re- fused to speak Gaelic, Efe was ask- ed how .his parents were. He replied that they were dead. Teen he was asked what had happened to his horse —that Who dead also. Now Mackay said it Was a dreadful thing to use the same word for his horse as his CaRltal l�fptd ' 40Po Reserve 1tj Over 126.

Zurich parents; in Gaelic he would have said his horse was dead but that his par- ents were changed. Life is hard, especially in the win- ter time, and the loneliness of some of the women is great. One of the keeper's wives comforts herself by looking through her husband's glass- es at the next house two miles away. She says it is a gneat solace to her to see heir neighbors moving about the yard. Another, an old woman of eighty-three whom we surprised whitewashing her cottage, told us that the honeysuckle covering her doorway was, with its scent and col- or, a perfect treasure to her. Thus, if life is hard and the gloom of the mountains oppressive, the people have their own compensations and trea- sures. They remind one of the end of a Yeats play. "Did you see an old woman going down the paths?" "I did not, but I saw a young girl, and she had the walk of a queen." E% -KAISER'S BRIDE COMES OF ECCENTRIC FAMILY Although the betrothal of the ex - Kaiser and the Princess Herminie, of Reuss, is a generally accepted fact, Mr. Frederick Cunliffe -Owen, C.B.E., .almost goes the length of forbidding the banns on the ground that both the contracting parties aro of tainted stock and any children that might be born of the union would probably be imbeciles. The brief review of the family of the Princess which Mr. Owen gives in the New York Times is an unflattering one, and indicates that if the Princess herself has a sound mind she is rarely fortunate. He does not suggest that she is in any way doltish, but the fact that she is to become the wife of the most execrated old man in the world is surely no evidence of powerful qualities of intellect. Indeed, the Princess appears to. be beloved by the people upon her estate, in whose welfare she has always been inter- ested, and it is probable that after her marriage she will devote herself entirely to her new husband and her children. But it is unlikely that o'er she will lavish upon him the venera- tion, affection and care that were the daily offerings of the former Kaiser - in. The only brother of the Princess, Henry XXIV of Reuss, formerly ruler of that principality, is deaf and dumb, imbecile and blind, but his infirmities were partly due to accident and not wholly inherited. He was born deaf and dumb, but was idolized by his mother, a Princess Ida of Schaumberg -Lippe. Whet; he was a young boy it was decided that he should be operated on for a defect in his eye, a kind of squint. His mother held him on her knee, but at the most critical moment of the operation her horror and grief at the sight of the cutting that was going on, caused her to make a sudden movement. The result was that the oculist's lancet was driven into the lad's eye, and he was blinded. That the steel penetrat- ed his brain seems probable from the fact that he was also an imbecile. The tragedy broke the Princess's heart and she died shortly afterward while her husband expressed his feelings by thereafter refusing to permit any reference to be made in his presence to his afflicted son. He would not even allow prayers to be offered for his recovery in the church- es. This Prince Henry of Reuss was a crank to the verge of imbecility. He was so autocratic that he would not allow a house to be built in his capital of Greiz or a tree to be cut down without his special sanction. He also insisted upon personally ad- ministering corporal punishment to any of the Public School pupils who were to be birthed. They were sent to his palace for this purpose, for the Prince held that as he was the father of his people the caning of them was his personal responsibility. The Prince kept up a perpetual quar- rel with Prussia because at one time he suspected Bismarck of putting a slight upon him at a royal dinner Ile would not permit his people to put . up any memorial to old Em- peror William or to the Iron Chan- cellor or even to the ex -Kaiser. A death in the House of Hohenzollern, was not recognized by: the Prince of Reuss as an occasion for mourn- ing. He dwelt in a magnificent' mediaeval castle which was inno- cent of any modern comfort& or- conveniences. rconveniences. There was neither' running Water nor hot water, and kitchens were at such an immense distance from the dining room that the food was always cold when it arrived on the guests! plates. The Reuss family consisted of the' father, the imbecile prince, and four daughters and the Iife of the latter was a gloomy one from which they ' sought -escape in marriage at the- earliest heearliest opportunity. One of them, to the disgust of her father, be- came the wife of Count Eric Kunigl. whose uncle was a dignitary at the court of Reuss-Greiz. Another an- cepted an Austrian baron who was an officer in the Great War. An- other, says Mr. Owen, married on: 1 a footing of equality Prince Chris- ' topher of Stolburg, scion of one of the ' mediatized families, that is to say, of' the dynasties that exercised petty sov- 1 ereign sway in Germany prior to the- ! overthrow of the Holy Roman Em- pire by the First Napoleon a little more than a hundred years Ago. The , first marriage of the Princess herself- ' was regarded as a mesalliance, for her husband, Prince John Carolath, was a mere Prussian noble and did` not belong' to any mediatized house,. Iwhose members were entitled to - mate on terms of equality with members of soverign dynasties. Her I eldest inherits the status of his - ,father, not of his mother. Several other members of the 1 Reuss family have been imbeciles (-and for a long time the royal tribe has been a veritable godsend to Ger- man erman comic publications and cartoon- ists. Their court was the only one in Europe where in the case of" royal mourning the mourners were to show the sincerity of their grief' by wearing black underclothing. The pomp of these petty princelings was without modern parallel, and Mr, Owen quotes from an old copy of the Official Gazette of Reuss - Gera: "The All -Highest" (meaning - not the ex -Emperor but the Prince of Reuss) "in token of his satisfac- tion and recognition of the services of a veteran fireman, had had the high mercy and graciousness to re- ward him by ,deigning to extend his own All -Highest hand to be kissed." The comic papers in other German states were prompt to ask why the gracious Prince should have extended' his own royal hand when there were- the erethe hands of others which he might have had extended as sufficient re- ward to a humble fireman. Imbecile or pompous to the verge of lunacy though many members of the House of Reuss have been they trace their descent as far back as the • Hohenzollern, and in the matter of birth the Princess is considered the equal of the egile of Doorn, German financiers drilling for nat- ural gas near Hamburg abandoned ed search after a well that had', been bored 1,000 feet filled with: quicksand.
