' STUTTERING If you stutter, learn' to stutter Once you have becomle an expert stut- terer, you will find you can speak without stuttering. This is the advice given by Pref. Herbert Koepp-Baker of Pennsylvania State °allege to stut- tering students. He announced that this .rigorous program of self-discip- line has proved successful in helping stutterers and stammerers .overcome their speech difficulties. The stutter- ing -on -purpose speech defects which is available to students at the college and topersons in other ,communitiett throughout Permeylvaiaria. The pro- gram also includes tests for rigilet or left handedness and gradual training of the stutterer to use the hand na- ture intended Man to use, as shown by the tests.t—Science Service. University of Michigan tests have preyed tha.t crawling about on al/ fours cures stuttering. - apeeqh impediment has increased the .vocabulary of stutterers fifty per cent. over those of normal speech be- cause of the search for synonyms to replace herd -to -pronounce words. There are about four or five men stutterers to 'every woman who stut- ters. • Linguists rniay stutter in one lang- uage and ,not in any ether. Stutter- ing is a form of nervousness and may come from lack of knowledge of the subject., Dr. Alfred Adler, noted Viennese psychologist, says criminals who stut- ter never go beyond the petty larceny stage. • • ADY TO \ 1 15;00 to 25.00 • e A QUEEN IN SCOTLAND (Conttnued from. Page 1) dow out of which he was thrown., A skeleton was found M the garden only twenty-five years ago, and there ap- pears to, be little doubt it was Doug- las's. From the terrace the view is very extensive but it was so thick and hazy that we could not see the High- land'bills well. Sir A. Christie show- ed us the field -of the Battle of Ban- nockburn; and the 'knoll' close under the walls of the castle from which the ladies used to watob the tourna- ments; all the embankments yet re- main. We also saw Knox's pulpit." One result of the Queen's visit to Scotland was a new interest in Sir Walter Scott's writings. On her voy- age home she read several cantos of the "Lay of the Last Minstrel" to the Prince Consort; and in her diary, when telling of her trip on Looh Tay she quoted. from the "Lady of the Lake" the stirring lines: "See the proud pipers off the bow, • And mark the gaudy streamers flow From their loud chanters down, and sweep The furrowed best= of the deep, As, rushing through' the lake amain, They plied the ancient Highland • strain." • • Balmoral It was not until six years afterwards that Queen Victoria paid her first vis- it to Balmoral Castle,—not the Royal residence of today, but old Balmor- al. 1 will give the story as the Queen wrote it herself. "Balmoral, Friday, Sept. 8, 1848. "We arrived at Balmoral at a quar- ter to three. .-It is a pretty little cas- tle in the old Scottish style. There is a pioturescpie tower and garden in front, with a thigh wooded hill; at the back there is wood down to the Dee; and the 'hills rise all around. ' "There le a. Rice little hall with a billiard- room; next to it is the dining room. Upstaire (ascending by a good broad staircase) immediately to the right, and, above the dining room, is our sitting room '(formerly theteraw- ing room), a fine large room—next to. which is our bddroom, opening into i. little dressing _room which is Alberta. Opposite, down a few steps, are the children's and Miss Hildyard's three rooms. The ladies live below, and the gentlemen upstairs. "We lunched almost immediately, and at half -past four we walked out, and went up to the top of 'the wooded hill opposite our windows, where there is a cairn, and up which there is a pretty winding path. 'Phe view from here, looking down upon the house, is •oharmieg. To the left you look upon the •beautiful hills surround- ing Lech -ma -Gm, .and to the right, to- wards Ballater, to the • glen. (or val- ley) 'along wthich the Dee winds, with beautiful wooded hills, which remind: efl its very much of the- Thuringele weld. It was so calm, and so solitary, !Laid one good as one .gazed around; and the pure mountain air was most refreshing. A41 seemed to breathe freedom and peace, and make one for- get . the world and its" sad turmoils.. "The scenery is wild dad yet not desolate; and everything looks =roll More prosperous and culttvated than at Laggan. Then the eon is delight- fully dry. We walked beside the Dee a beautiful, rapid stream, which is close behind the houee. The view ot the hills toward Invercauld is exteed- ingly fine.

Ascent of Loch-na-Gar The next day the Queen made the ascent of Loch-na-Gar for the first time. The party went on ponies and Grant, one of the Highland servants, took along' the lunch in two baskets. Another recreation was a drive in the "Balloch Buie," when Bertie, aged sev- en, afterwards King Edward the sev- enth, rode on. Grant's pony on the deer saddle. The first mention the Queen made of tae Braemar Gathering was in -her diary for September, 1850. She and her husband and the children, and other members of the, royal party left the castle .at Balmoral at half -past two and spent a happy afternoon, "There were the usual games of putting the stone," wrote the Queen, "throwing the 'hammer, the caber, and racing up the hill of Craig Ciheunnich, which was accomplished in less- than six minutes and a half; and we were all mueh pleased to see our gillie Dunean„ who is an active, good-look- ing, young mare; win. He was far be- fore •the others the whole way. It is a fearful exertion. Mr, Farquharson brought him up to me afterwards. Eighteen or nineteea started, and it looked very pretty to see them' run off in their different -colored kilts, with their white shirts (the jackets or doublets they take off for all the games) and scramble up through the wood, emerging gradually at the edge of it, and climbing the hill. "After this we went into the castle and saw some dancing; the prettiest was a reel by Mr. Farquharson's chil- dren, ane the "Ghillie Callum" beau- tifully danced by .1ohn Athol e Farqu- harson,. the fourth, son. The twelve children were all there, including the baby, who is two years old. "Mama, Charles, and Ernest joined us at Braemar. Mama enjoys it all very much; it is her first visit to Scotland. We left after the dancing." 4,44..,..a • #.111 SI& ,tnt.'

The Queen, thought the new house lucky indeed for three days later the news carne of the. fall of SebastopoL A bonfire was set 011 the cairn at the top of the hill in honor of the event and there was great playing of the pipes and dancing of Highland reels. Later in tihe same month Queen Vic- toria. wrote: Princess Royal Engaged • "Our dear Victoria was this day en gaged to Prince Frederick William of Prussia, who had been on 'a visit to us since the 14th. He had . already spoken to us, on the 20th, of his wishes; but we were uncertain, on account of her -extreme youth, whe- ther he should speak to her 'himself, or wait till he came back again. How- ever, we felt it was better he should do so; and during our ride up Craig- na-Ban this afternoon, he picked a piece of white heather, (the emblem of 'good luck') which be gave to her; and this enabled him to make an allu- sion to his hopes and wishes, as they rode downeGlen Ginacole, which led to this bap&econclusion." (The first child born of this union became the last Emperor of Germania). Queen Victoria was always interest- ed in the little church near the cas- • tle. On October 14; 1855, she wrote: "To kirk at 12 o'clock. The Rev. J. Caird, onie of the most celebrated preaohers in Scotland, performed the service, and electrified all present by his most admirable and beautiful ser- mon, which last nearly an hour, but which kept one's Meentket riveted. The text was ,from the twelfth chap- ter of Romanis, and the eleventh verse: 'Not slothful 1 business; fer- vent in tspirit; serving the Lord.' He explained, in emstebeautitel and. sim- ple manner, what real religion is ; how it ought to pervade every action of our lives; not a thing only for Sun- days, or for our closet; not a thing to drive us from the world; not 'a per- petual moping over "good" books, but 'being and .doing geode 'letting every- thing be done in a Christian spirit.' It was as fine as Mr. McLeod's ser- mon last year, and sent us home much elated." Queen's Attachment to Balmoral A paragraph dated October 13,.1856, serves to show why the Queen always felt so attached to Balmoral, and why the Royal family even to -day continue to take a delight in the Highland home of their great-grandparents. The Queen wrote: "Every year my heart beoomes more fixed in this dear Paradise, and so much more so now', that all bas become my dear Alberes own crea- tion, own work, own building, own laying out, as at Osborne; an his great taste, and the impress of his dear hand, have been stamped every- where. He Is very busy today, set- tling and arranging many things for next year." Queen Vittoria's diary was publish- ed in 1868, just seven year:latter the Prince Consort passed away. It was entitled "Leaves atm the eourind of OUT TAfe' in the Highlands." There Were no entries after the tragic year 1861. Death of Wellington It was while in the Highlands, in 1852, that the royal family received the news of the death of the Duke of Wellington. The Duke was eighty- three and had passed away without any suffering after only a few -hours illness. In her diary the Queen refer- red to him as the greatest man Bri- tain had ever produced, and to his death as a great and irreparable na- tional lose. In September, 1853, the foundation stone was laid for the new castle at Balmoral, and a great event was m-ade of it. Two years later, on September the seventh, the Queen wrote: "At a quarter past seven o'clock we arrived at dear Balmoral. Strange, very strange, it seemed to me, to drive past, indeed thrbrugh.; the old house; the connecting ieart between it and the, offices being broken through. The new house look e very beautiful. The tower and the rooms in the connecting part are, however, only half enish.ed, and the offices are still unbuilt; therefore the gentlemen (except the minister) live in the old house, •and so do Most of the sere - ants; there le a long wooden passage which °Oilmen; the mew. house with the offices.

Downing Street is known and loved by Londoners. Whenever a crisis comes—talk of war, a change in the ministry, defeat or triumph for the government—they dock to Downing Street, and beneath the gaze of a benevolent policeman fix their eyes oa the door with the old brass knock- er, to see great men, ministers of state, premiers of the Dominions, princes and potentates from Eastern leads, ambassadors from the mighty nations of the world, pass in and out. A cheer goes up when the houserhold- ee himself appears on his doorstep to speed the parting guest. But let us return in fancy to the Cabinet Room and try to imagine what those walls would tell us, could they speak. No room in the world ever contained more secrets or guarded them more jealously..earhe rdiecus- stone and decisions of the Cabinet Council are kept inviolate by an in- flexible rule, till the appointed tour comes when they are to be officially made Imowe. No doubt, in most cas- es, such .an hour Bever comes. One of No. 10's chief treasures is a bust of Pitt the younger, one of bhe greatest of England's great men. The Cabinet Room was already rich in a hundred years of eventful history when Pitt and his colleagues oat there, day after day, night atter night, raft after year, planning and contriving to defeat the mighty conqueror of Eur- ope, who bad turned covetous eyes across the narrow ' seas. Napoleon suffered defeat, on sea and land, at the bands of two great English cap- tains, Nelson and -Wellington. It is one of the ironies of 'history that these two heroes met and clasped their betels but once in their lives— where? At No. 10 Downing Street. Here the kiirg's ministers sat when a king's messenger brought them the, mews that Quebec) had fallen: to Waite' aad England's traditiOnsal enemy hadi 1?, v) • ' ' in London, and the hour drew neara.

Infantile Paralysis Theseason of infantile paralysis is August, Sep- tember and October, and the Department of Health,_ is anxious to pKevent, if possible, a serious epidemic Repeated notices have been sent to the Health Officers of Ontario which requires them to care- fully carry out the provisions of the Health Act in reference to prompt notification of the disease where present, or where there is reason to suspect , its occurrence to quarantine for the full period of , three weeks any case of the disease, and to quaran- tine any one in contact for the necessary period, which is usually ten days. No dairy product or containers will be permitted • to leave the premises without permission of the Board a Health. The residents of McKillop, Tuckersrnith and Sea - forth are courteously requested to co-operate as the Board of Health is placed wider obligation to insure the carrying out of the Act. The early symptoms of infantile paralysis are neck stiffness, headache, pain in the back, irritabil- ity, vomiting, redness or soreness of throat and moderate rise of temperature.
