The Scottish pipes are dear -

"To -morrow death's between; us

Till 'their hopes became despair ;
Mel the Sobs of law bewailing
Filled the pauses of their prayer.
Than up spate; a tecottish maiden,
With her ear auto the ground
"Dinette, ye hear it ?-dinna ye hear

Hushed the wounded man his groan -

Hushed the wife her little ones;
;Alone they heard the drum roll
And the rear of Sepoy guns.
But to sounds of home and child-

The Highland ear was true -
As her mother's cradle -crooning
The mountain pipes she knew.
Like the march of soundlese music
Through the visi en of the seer,
Mere of feeling than of hearing,

Oh, they listen, dumb and breathless,

Faint and far beyond the Gamtee
Rose and fell the piper's blast !
Then a burst of wild thanksgiving
Mingled womaa's valise and man's.
" God be praised l -the march of Have-

The piping or the clan.s!"
Louder, nearer, fierce as vengeance,
Searle and shrla as sword at strife

The air of "Auld Lang Syne,"

As the 13loaratee cleaves the plain.

And plaided mountaineer -
To the cottage and the castle

Sweet sounds the 'Gaelic pibroch
O'er mountain, glen and glade;

thoroughly woven throughout, and it
was only by detaching the fine fibres
from each other that you identified the
cotton fibre. I fell on the device of
using soda. I took a bit of blanket
and put it in a vessel 'with soda, and
boiled it there, and very quickly the
wool got eaten away by the soda, and
there was left behind the cotton as a
bind of skeleton -a sort of ghost -of
the original blanket out of which it
was taken. I mention this merely to

a dressmaker who supplies the fash-

The coat seemed especially novel,
and made the tall young woman who
tried it on a veritable goddess. In

way. Several of our neighbors who

Bright red cloth has been used a

worn also in Paris for the autumn.

Linen trimmings 'are rather a feat-
ure on cloth gowns. Sometimes they
are used as straopings, but some-
times the linen is decoupe, and laid
on flatly, or set slightly full as
flounces. It is rather to be spoken
of- as a novelty than as a desirable
feature to adopt, for there is some-

Many of the preparations are high-
priced, and in their crystal and sil-

purpose and are for only occasional
use. The really necessary articles
may also be kept in resplendent and
costly boxes, bottles and jars, but
their origin is humble and their price
not worth mentioning.

Experienced men are able to sel-
ect good cows with a reasonable
amount of certainty, but the most
expert dairy judge Is largely at sea
when he attempts to select a good
bull by appearances alone. When we
come to the question of raising good
cows, we find that the only road to
success is in breeding from cows of
known capacity and from bulls whose
female ancestors have also 'been
tested for merit at the pail and

a good, bull should be backed by a
considerable number of good pro-

Advanced Registry.
About twenty yeare ago some of
the prominent American breeders of
Holstein-Frieslan cattle, impressed
with the importance of the above
question, started what is known as
an "advanced registry," in which
cows could be recorded only
after making a milk or butter re-
cord greater than a certain high
standard. This system of registry
was greatly improved some eight

Glycerine Is an old, friend, and, com-
bined with one-third its quantity of
roeewater, is invaluable for use on
the hands; if a few drops of acetic
acid is added its usefulness as a skin
whitener is much increased. Glycer-
ine and oatmeal made into a paste
with rosewater constitute an ideal
face lotion to remove tan and sun-
burn.
As an addition to the bath, gly-
cerine, scented with rose perfume,
will impart a delightful freshness
and delicacy to the skin, the proper-
tion'e being four ounces of glycerine
to one gallon. of water. For a cough
or cold, a tablespoonful of glycer-

and one part of powdered willow
charcoal is also a help in case of
severe cough.
A little powdered alum thrown into
the water in which the hands are
bathed 'will prevent perspiration. This
is 'worth while to remember before
putting on gloves for a reception or
a ball.
