In German cari&itwres now John
Brill is almost ilivariably depicted as
a wearer of the kilt .and the diced
Glengarry bonnet. However the
verifiable John may regard it, Scotland
looks on this new convention of the
German satiric artist as a eompiimei t
possibly unintended, but significant,
to the race which an English,Parlia-
ment divested of those same garments
under proscriptive law 170 years ago,
writes a London correspondent. •
The recent advertising campaign in
aid of our army's recruiting was
doubtless suited to England, but so
far as Scotland is concerned there is
no more compelling kind of adver-
tiselnent than the Highland garb, for
the Scottish heart still warms to the

The Apron Compromise.
The theme has some intoxicating
elements to a Scot, and tempts to
lyricism; a sober Sassenach may na-
turally interpolate with the question,
'Ie; the kilt an appropriate garb for
modern war?" How does it suit with
winter trenches, or the ardent sum-
' :ser of 'Gallipoli? Who best under- 1
stands the Scot will readiest under-
stand how this should be a question
:meanwhile difficult to settle. The more
perfervid Highlanders who have gone
through the present campaign in
either field of action protest that the I
garb is an ideal one at any season
under any circumstances,.and the kilt, I
with its thick, rnany-plyed body belt,
Is unquestionably a greater protection
to the abdominal organs than any
breeches. In Gallipoli the men who
put off their kilts and wore but the
khaki apron were speedily in the hos-
pital. But more disinterested wear-
ers of the tartan (possible from Car-
lisle) are by no means so enthusiastic
about the kilt for Flanders mud or
Oriental sunshine.
That ticklish question apart, how-
ever, ive may safely take it that the
tartan is now being worn for the last
time in war. Childers, when Secre-
tary of State for War in 1881, made
Scotland furious by a proposal to
abolish individual -regimental tartans

One day, when out walking, I met

DISSOLUTE GERMAN YOUTHS.
Stringent Rules Applying to Boys Un-

The authorities in all parts of Ger-
many have determined to take active
and very drastic steps against the
various influences which are alleged to
be at work in the deterioration of the
young. Criminologists and statistici-
ans by the score brought forward de-
tails of dissoluteness which are almost
incredible, and pointed out the rapidly
increasing number of youthful delin-
quents, and the increasing gravity of
their offences. All of these authori-
ties called on the Government to take
steps to save the youth of the Father-
land and to act the part of the na-
tural parent, who was prevented by
his military duties from bringing up
his children as law-abiding citizens.

REVERED AS SAINTS.
Where Lunatics Are Looked Upon as
Wonderful Beings.
It appears there are' places where
lunatics are not shut up and kept
away from the.: rest of the world, but
are revered as saints and far superior'
to the crdinary run of mortals. This
is the queer state of affairs that exists
in some of the interior cities of Persia.
A British traveller' named Fetter, re-
cently returned from the, Orient,
brings back some interesting tales of
the mentally -deranged men who are
Looked upon in the light o'v✓onderful
beings.
One particularly crazy man,'accord-
ing to 1'fr. Fetter, the craziest man he
ever ea', or heard of, does nothing
all day long but race up and down
the. streets crying at the top of his
voice:
"AIi1 Ali! Alit"
This is not a temporary form of
madness, either, for he has kept it up
for twenty years or so. lie started it
when he was still a young man, and
his idea, of: course, is to venerate the
name of the God he knows by cease-
lessly shrieking his name.
Everyone venerates him. The 'rich-
est men in the city have presented
him with rare gifts. Qne of them
gave him a horse and saddle, and with
that he gallops through the streets
when he is not walking. He is privi-
leged to break up any kind of a meet-
ing or assembly, and all stop and lis
ten to his cries as long as he is of the
notion to stay in their .midst.
At his death a huge monument has
already been promised, on which will
he carved. the word "Ali," so it will
tell to generations to come the story
of the man who spent the,best years
of his life and all of his waking hours
shrieking the name of the deity he
worshipped. •
