Avuy back in the moors of Scotland among the wild mountain glens of Inver- nesssiire, among the heather and ferns was the beautiful home of Sir Dudley Coutts Majoribanks, since created Lord Tweeemoutb. I» this rural retreat, many miles trom railway or telegraph, he had gaiberd around him all the delignts and juxuries that made a truly delightful bomeé; and bere little Ieabel was born, the preset Countess of Aberdeen.

ness, it imbued her with the love for all thing» beautiful—here she met the ablest politicans and men of letters, and here she met her husband, Lord Aberdeen, now the Governor General of Canada,

Of this meeting with him whotwas des- tined to be her husband, the story is that one evening when the shades of night were fast creeping down the glene, bathing hi!!, dale and strath with weird shadows aa the sunlight was admitted or shut out by interloping mountain, a footsore pony with» slim though rugged boy leading him came down the bills. All in the home farm of Guisachan was mirth and comf rt. The cattle had sought shelter. the night fires were lighted, the supper was sending its sweet fragrance abroad, the * cakes” were ready—cakes that delighted the hearts of Burne, and afforded @ rich subject for the pen of Scott—every thing was ready for the evening meal whew the boy with the pony came to the door and craved hospitality. That hos pitalii'y which iseo marked in the High- lands, and which was especially marke! in Guisachan, went out to the belated boy and he was invited to enter. Ishbel, than a little girl, of eleven, was quick to extend all the courtesies of her home, aod when it was learned that the boy was Jobn Campbell Gordon, a son of the Earl of Aberdeen, Ishbel’s father was delightep to off rd him ell assistance. This happy meeti: g was the opening of a courtship that wasconsummated by a happy marriage.

The camel is a beast of great strength and endurance. Nothing burts it until the proverbial “last straw” is added to its burden. The human digestive system is much lkeacamel, It is really astonishing how much abuse it will stand. Sometimes, however, something worse than usual willbe eaten, and will go through the stomach into the bowels, and there it will stick—that’s constipation. Nine-tenths of all human sickuess is due to constipation. Some of the simples} symptoms are coated tongue and fou! breath, dizziness, heartburn, flatulence, sallowness, distress after eating, headaches and lassitude. A little thing will cause constipation, and a little thing will relieve it. Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets area certain cure for constipation.

AN ANSWER AND A PROPOSITION.

very

Sizr,—In your issue of the 22nd I see another letter by “Mariner” on the Grand River buoy service. Now as I Lave neither the time nor the wish to be a pariner ina weekly controver-y on the buoys’ in this harbor I below make “Mariner” an offer to settle this matter without exhausting the space of your paper anyfurther. But in juetice to my- self my sureties and the harbor master, I must answer some of the falsehoods in his last letter,and 1 think I had better give a short history of the buoy service for the present year in order that your read- era may better understand his accusations, About the first of April, 1897, tenders were ealled-for the Grand River buoy service. Iand Ido not know bow many others tendered. Time flew on, The Ist of May arrived, but there was no word in re—- gard tothe buoys, About the 12th of May, when Iwasbusy putting ont my lobister traps, I received word that my tender bad been accepted, and as there was no harbor=-master appointed to repair the buoys and have them placed in what I judged proper possitions, I could not in justice tothe packer whose traps I had charge of, 9: to myself, leave them at that time so I engaged one of my sureties to'repair and put them out. He express- ed himself satistied with them, and as po one has ever complained to him is satis- fied still. Time flew ov. Some time in August Mr Samuel Hemphi.| came down the river ‘with a pleasure party and told one Of my sureties who asked him that he was perfectly satisfied with the buoys and as he has never coniplained to me or: the harbor- master, I infer he ie satisfied still. About the 20th of September the captain of the Morning Light told me the ste<ea were all right. About a fortnight afterwards I heard a report that some of the stakes were down. I went up on Tuesday, the 5th of October, aod [ found that a lot of stakes had been broken off at the waters edge but that there were still 25 or 30 Jeft. Now “ Mar. iner,” if you will give up your Indian style of warfare and come out like a man I will take and show you 20 stakes that still remain that have been out since the first of June. “Mariner” will you please inform me bow the wind could break off stakes in the narrowest and emoothest rt ofthe river while those that were in the big and little channels and under my eye are as good as when putout. Bat, perhaps it was the fairies that pulled them up and forgot to put them all down again! I must inform you thatI have not got te keep a spar buoy on flat Rock, and that the one that was out thtssummer was 2|ft. long painted black and in the middle of the channel]. Bat if the thanke I am going to get is abuse you will soon look tor it in vain My grand-father and I just spent 8 hours and forty five minutes in staking the rivers since the first of Oct. Now “ Mariner ” if youand the clique to which you belong will lower yourselves enough to come tomy home on Tuesday the 9th. Nov. Land the harbor master will lieten to anv suggestions vou have to give about the buoys and we will send them to the proper place to be acted on. But in return I will wish to fiud out why instead of repeating tome or the harbor master you rushed to the columns of a public newspaper with your compliments when you find a specified size for the bard wood and soft wood bushes in this river. I will have in waiting plenty food for your self and provender for your asses, Yours in expectation.

Count Berberana, a wealthy noble- man of Spain, recently had a narrow escape from. death on the horns of a bull. Two animals which were being driven to Burgos to take part in a bull- fight broke away from their keepers. Among the wealthy young sportsmen who started in pursuit was Count Ber- berana on the back of an Arabian horse. He overtook one of the animals after a race of nine miles, shot at it, but missed his mark. The beast turned, gored the horse to death, threw the count in the air, badly wounding him, and was about to jump on him again when gendarmes killed the bull.
