A SCOTTISH ROMANCE
The ter woe loon with frost; on the
worn rim of the granite drinkingtrorgh the sparkles glistened like
enerestcd genne a thin layer of clear
leo covered the etreant whiell had
triekled from the old puune Bee the
two who stood b:nrath the thatch saw
none of these things; the worldbad
ceneed to exist for them. They were
alore together la the wonder of Love's
Garden.
With throbbing, pulses John Ander-
son looked into the sweet face at his
sheulder.
"Janie," he Pried, "I am loving you

turn, lassie. I am away to Edinburgh

For a moment the girl stood silent;
then, turning, she looked him in the
eyes.
"it's just love, Jobn," she whispered.
"That's the one wee word."
"Lassie -lassie mine!" •
Tha Passionate words brought the
splendid color to her cheeks, and, 'with
a low, tremulous laugh, she freed her-
self front bis einbraee.
"They'll be seeking us," she said:
"We maun away back for the burnin'
o' the nuts."
Midnight was striking when the mere
ry company at last dispersed, and,
lingering a moment, John Anderson
took •the wee twist of newspaper which
Janie Morton slipped into his hand.
"It's the ashes o' our nuts," she.
whispered. "Put them belowyour pil-
low, dearie; we mann be eourtin' the
same dram."
Entering the farm on the Saturday
night following the festival of Hal-
lowe.'en, Janie Morton was arrested by
the sound of ber uncle'e voice, follow.

• "I'm no' surpe's•d; they Andersone

"What is a 1,10..? :what is wrong

"He's got hites'I'. In jail," growled

"It's a salt peety. It'll just stick to

Alone in the glowing kitcben which
ten years ago bad echced with many
a peal of laughter, Janie Morton sat
before the fire, showing red between
the polished bars of the stove, ber
hands cleaned together in her lap, and
within them a twist of newspaper.
Never a Hallowe'en had come round
Mat she bad not burnt the nuta in, ber
own name and that of the man she
loved, butt onight, for the first time,
her heart had failed her for very ach-
ing, and she had omitted to call for
them at Grannie Kirsty's store.
Through all the years she had waited
and hoped., faithful to the core; but
"hope deferred maketh the, heart
sick," and one by one the tear e welled
up, brimming over, falling in a bitter
rain upon the packet of ashes that bad
been the mute companion of her lone-
liness.
"eohn, dea.rie, I'm loving you yet!"
Broken with sobs, the words fell
upon the silence; as the bearer of
Grannie Kirsty's "wee bag" lifted the
latch.
Starting to her feet, she faced him.

SNEEZING SUPERSTITIONS
The 'Ancients Had Some Queer No -
Vohs Aboutthe Practice
Many superstitions have gathered
around the. practice of sneezing.
• The Jewish Rabbis say that in the
first ages ot the world sneezing was
considered e .thing of evil- omen, and
even a presage of death, and 'that
this terrible state of things lasted' un-
til the coming .0f Jacob, whenthat
astute patriarch,- • anxious lest he
should himself perish from such an
insignificant cattle, besought the Al-
mighty- to endow sneezing in future
with more beneficent attributes!
• Among the aneients sneezing was
• considered lucky or unlucky accord-
ing to the .circumstances of time •and
place. • •
• .For* instance, itwas considered.
'lucky Sneeze •between noon and.
midnight; also when the .moon . was
In the signs of Taurus, Leo, Libra,
Capricorn, and Pisces.• .
-But if, on the - other . hand,. You
.sneezed duringany of the hours be-
tween midnight .and the following

be in the signs of .Virgo, Agearius;
Cancer, or Scorpio -above- ell, if, me
;tepidly, you were just getting out of
heti or rising from the .table -thea
you • were to consider' yourself

The • Greeks. and Romans enter-.
*twined the superstition that to hear
:anyone on their right hand .sneeze
Was of .good presage to all concerned,
and ttie Greeks used to say' of a'beau-
tiful woman that Cupid and his Loves
sad sneezed .at her birth. • .
POPULAR PHRASES
liosv Some of Them Originated -Cone
mon Expressions
•
• Who first gave utterance to • Some
et the popular phrases of to -day it is
bracticallyimpossible to say, but it
is slot so difficult to trace the origin
ef the sayings. Cheshire cats, for in-
stance,' are no different from thoee
of other counties, Mit because Che-
shire cheeses used to be Made in the
shape of cats with fixed, broad grins,
the phrase' "Grinning like a Cheshire
eat eating cheeSe," arose.
The phrese, "He's a brick," origi-
nated from an 12:astern ruler, who,
while visiting a neighboring princi-
PalitY, asked bis host to show him the.
fortifications. Waving his hands to-
wards his troopa, which were drawn
up in soldierly array, the Prince said
to his, guest: •.*Timse are my fortifi-
cations; every man. le a brick."
The phrase, "Mad as a hatter,"
really means as venomous as a viper.
"Mad as ahatter" is • simply a cor-
petition of an ancient form, "Mad as.
an atter, oi' adder." Mad in this case
is generally synonymous With poison-
ous.
The clause "It Suits to a le" mean-
ing it fits exactly, is as old as the
familiar instrument, the T-square, or
T -rule iso called from its resemblance
to the letter T), used by mechanics
and draughtsmen for making angles
true and for obtaining perpendieulare,
The expression was in common use in
the time of Dr. Johnson, who IS
quoted by Boswell as saying of War-
burton, "You tee they have fitted him

Her trembling fingers began un-

"I wouldn't give this to anyone on

The man fell' on his knees with both
