--a Wad ye want it gif it wad deeply

thre the wilderness, Ye micht, ye ken,.
ask twa things, the one clean contradic-
tory o'• the ither. The Lord will gie ye
the best ane; the Lord never 'acts
against soun" reason."
"Not in miracles ?" asked the infant
casuist.
-"Na, ha, led !" said Sandy; "mir-
acles are not &gin' reason but they shoot
aboon man's reason into height o'
tforro reason. Man's reason is clogged
an' heavy wr sin. -Ye ken the corbie
has sue Richt, but the eagle has anither,
an' gets far higher intil the
Sandy's flight of thought WAS here
higher then the boy's, as might be the,
lark's above that of the dove.
Quentin came back to earthwith an•
other question: •- -
"Ap' the gude Lord were come in
here, /Min' by the lI
um wad he speak
Scotch! Did he speak Scotch wr John
an' Peter an' Mark, ?
Here was a poser. The family Medi:
tated.
Sandyspoke: ° • .
"I min' hearint the minister say that
the Buik was written in Hebrew an'
Greek, an' us doot it was in they .
tongues our Lord spoke upo' earth. I.
ken when I went my twa voyages I`
foun' people in foreign Ian's speakin'
unco' barbarous tongues an' comprehea-
nire ilk ither fine.' ,
- "Then," said Quentin, in great disap7
-pointy:ea, "gif he did come by the lum,
• I couldna unuerstan"
"Hoot, laddie! never fear," said
Aggie; "the Lord aye will speak so as
to be unnerstood -by his am, whoever.
- they be,"
Now, Quentin had not been without
ulterior motives in his questions eon -
corning the efficacy of prayer. This was
'II' the spring when he was eleven years
old, and a great want had grown up in
him that ..nothing about- him could
satisfy. All that he saw awoke in him
'a terrible craving for knowledge. The
woods and glens were full of inexplic-
able things which this close obeerver and
-acute little reasoner felt sure had a'why
behind them. The detested sea flung
strange treasures on the coast which the
fisher -folk said were "joist chance.'
,The sky With its crowded start' tantal-
ized him: they changed their . places,
vo did the sun; the sun did- not rise
and set in the same place= all, the year
round. Why did the flight, the nests,
the eggs, the food; of birds differ?
Sandy had told him that there were
learned men in the world who knew
' everything and made books into which
. ;they put all they knew.
'Once there had hapPened a marvelous
thing. A peddler's cart came twice a
year through Kill Eda, and this spring,
when it bailie, the peddler had dropped
some pages of printed, paper that had
been about some thread and small
wares, and,Quentin picked them up and
found that they had pictures of two sin-
_ gularly-beheved crabs that lived on the
shore, but neither he nor Sandy could
read one word of the print about them.
The ietters were all there, butthey were
correlated4a such odd fashion that they
made no known words. Sandy finally
concluded it wee apiece of a book writ-
ten "in ane o' they strange tongues they
spoke t in foreign Ian's." Here, thee,
Opeitg out another wide field before the
pilgrim of knowledge, .whole books,
were in languages that were yet to be
learned. Ile could not even read -all
books 4f he had thein. Baffled and
wretched in view of his hopeless ignor-
ance, he began to pray for a wise man
and some books,"
lang syne that na doot " Kill Eda' cam'
fro' °Ede's Cell,' au' that -it meant that
verra fir back emne learned Culdee-man
from Iona named 1..Eda had. his
or home, here,ami taught the Celefolk
religion. He would .bevery wise an'
ken ti%onY tongues."
"I wad be glad," seid the desperate
Quentin, "to see even his .gheist-if a
ghaist has a tongue."

An Hour With a Queenstown '
Jehu. . • .
While Waiting; some. years ago, for
her Majesty's mail to arrive. at Queens-
town, there to • meet 'the ocean grey-,
hound upon which I was returning from
a summer in Europe, accompenied by a
'friend, I started =off on a "jaunting
WO" threugh.the City of Cove and its
surrounding hills; Our driver was a
typical Coveite-indeed; it would seem=
,as if the slang term "cove" applied to
individuals of lab own Stamp WAS dea
riVed. from the quondam name of the
latter-day. Queenstown, • since so many '
specimens of this class are to be seen on
her beautiful harbor.
,The trap in which we journeyed was
quitesuggestive of - the famous one.horse
shay; and the melaueholy steed that, in
response to the chirrups of our Jehu,
dragged us wearily over . the rough
roads seemed so blase that it excited
our comment, and led to as wager be-
tween us as to the name to which the
animal answered, when he answered at
11-11:;I'll bet you* a sovereign his name is
_Mickey," 1.ventured. . - -
-"I'll-bet a Pound his name is Dennis,'
retorted, my companion, unconsciously
dropping into what has since become a
famous slang phrase. .
"-Pet," I queried, what is your -horse's
name ?" . .
- That depinds yer honer," returned he.

'yez goes halves on yer Winnin's." '
The bet was declared off, but Fat got
his half sovereign for his wit. .
The coinattadehimoommunicatiVe;and
more he proceeded to regale us with some
or less startling reminiscences, among
which he included an account of an ex-
plosion he had once witnessed, the noise
of which was " thet loud it made Me
so dafe oi cudn't hearoit." .
He =tolled the oft -told story of how
one of his countrymen broke the news
of a comrade!s death to theihereaved
wife .b.y asking her if the widow Maloney
was tut by another which I expect he
evolved out of his inner consciousness,
and which was -briefly as -follows : Pat

what we call it dude; but that When.a
young lady had several young gentlemeu
hanging around her all the time trying
• to make up their minds if they had any
serious intentions, they were called
beaux. The man who made up his
mind first or was molt pleasing to the
girl got her and drove the others away.

herand of coarse immediately wanted
to know whet she -did it for. -
