so af 0 aber 3 7 iat Hite . ‘tlie a i ened apartment in which Norna was se amidst a . as tablets various languages, parchment scrolls, tabl
and stones inseribled with the. aud angular
| charactera.of the Runie alphabet, and similar
articles, which the vulgar might have connect- ed with the exereise of the, forbidden arts. There were also; lying in the chamber, or hung over the rade or ill contrived chim- ney, an old shirt of mail, with the headpiece, battle-axe and lance, which had once. belonged to it; and on a shelf were disposed, in great order,several of those curious,stone axes, form- ed of mn granite, which are often found in these islands, where they are called thunder- bolts by the common people, who usually preserve them as a charm of security against the effects of lightning. There was, moreover to be seen nelle the strange collection, a stone sacrifical knife, used perhaps for immolating human victims, and one or two of the brazen implements called Celts, the purpose of which has troubled the repose of so many antiqu- aries. A variety of other articles, some of which had neither name nor were capable of description, lay in confusion about the apartment; and in one corner, on a quantity ot withered tsea-weed, reposed what seemed, at first view, to be a large unshapely dog, but, when seen.more closely, proved to be a tame seal, which it had been Norna’s amusement to domesticate,
This uncouth favorite bristled up in its corner, upon the arrival of so many strangers, with an alertness similar to that which a terrestrial dog would have displayed on a similar occasion ; but Norna remained motion- less, seated an a table of — granite,
ro u y missha eet of the same per which beside he: old book with which she seemed to be busied, sustained a cake cf the coarse junleavened bread, three parts oatmeal, and one the sawdust of fir, which is used. by the peasants of Norway, beside which stood a jar of water. | Magnus Troil remained a minute in silence poring upon his kinswoman, while the singu- arity of her mansion inspired Brenda with much fear, and duane though but for a moment, the os and abstracted mood
f Minna, into a feeling of interest, not un- oe with awe. “The silence by the Udaller, who, unwillingly on the one land to give his kinswoman offence, and desirous on the other to show that he was not daunted by a reception so singular, opened the conversation thus :—
“IT give you goodeen, cousin Norna—my daughters and I have come far to see you.”
Norna raised her eyes from her volume, looked full at her visitors, then let them quietly sit down on the leaf with which she seemed to be engaged.
‘* Ney, cousin,” said Magnus, ‘‘take your own time—our business with you can wait your leisure. See here, Minna, what a fair prospect here is of the cape, scarce a quarter of a mile off! You may see the billows breaking on it topmast high. Our kins- woman has got a pretty seal, too. Here, sealchie, my man, whew, whew !”
The seal took no farther notice of the Udal- ler’s advances to acquaintance, than by utter- ing alow growl.
** He is not so well trained,” continued the Udaller, affecting an air of ease and uncon- cern, ‘‘as Peter McRaw’s, the old piper of Stornoway, who hada _ seal that flapped its tail to the tune of Caberfae, and acknowledged no other whatever. Well, cousin,” he con- cluded, observing that Norna closed her book, ‘are you going to give us a welcome at last, or must we go farther than our blood-rela- tion’s house to seek one, and that when the evening is wearing late apace *”’
‘*VYedull and hacd-hearted generation, as deaf as the adder to the voice of the charmer,” answered Norna, addressing them, ‘‘ why come ye to me? You have slighted every warning I could give of the coming harm, and now that it hath come upon you, ye seek my counsel when it can avail you nothing.”
‘* Look you, kinswoman,” said the Udal- ler, with his usual frankness, and _ bold- ness of manner and accent, ‘‘I must
needs tell you that your courtesy is some- thing of the coarsest and the coldest. I cannot say that lever saw an adder, in re- gard there are none in these parts; but touch- ing my own thoughts of what such a thing may be, it cannot be termed a suitable com- parison to me orto my daughters, and that I would have you to know. For old acquaint- ance, and certain other reasons, I do not leave your house upon the instant; but as I came hither in all kindness and civility, so I pray you to receive me with the like, otherwise we will depart, and leave shame on your inhospit- able threshold.”
‘“‘How!" said Norna, ‘dare you use such bold language in the house of one from whom all men—-from whom you yourself—come to solicit counsel and aid? They who speak to the Reimkennar must lower their voice to her before whom winds and waves hush both blast and billow.”
‘* Blast and billow may hush themselves if they will,’ replied the peremptory Udaller, but that will not I. I speak in the house of my friend as in my own, and strike sai! to none.” ‘And nope ye,” said Norna, “‘ by this rude- ness to compel me to answer to your interro- gatories ? ”’
‘‘Kinswomen,” replied Magnus Treil.,.*4:] know not as much as you of the old Norse sagas; but this I know, that when kempies were wont, loug since, to seek the habitations of the gall-dragons and spae-women, they came with their axe on their shoulders, and their good swords drawn in their hands, and compelled the power whom they invoked to listen to and answer them, ay, were it Odin himself.”
‘* Kinsman,” said Norna, asising from her seat, and coming forward, ‘‘ thou hast spoken | well, and in good time for thyself and thy ‘daughters; for hadst thou turned from my threshold without extorting an answer, morn-

Norna: “and what is the maidens ail- ment?”

A Successful Corporation.
DEVELOPMENT OF THE LUMBER INTERESTS OF THE PACIFIC COAST.
Among the many corporations connected with the lumber interests of this city, few an more widely known or highly respected than the Enterprise Mill and Building Company. The principal establishment of this Company is located at No. 217 Spear street, and occupies a space 200x275 feet, fronting on two streets. It is most thoroughly equipped, and provided with all the thost approved modern machinery and mechanical applicauces for the manufacture of doors, sashes, blinds, molding stairs, and all kinds of ship, store and house work, and also for planing, sawing, turning and earving of every variety of woodwork. To
the long list of manufactures in- eluded, may be added the manufac- ture of coffins and caskets in
which branch alone the company does a business second to none on the const. The motive power is supplied by a one hundred horse-power engine, and con- stant employment is given to over 130 men. A feature of the establishment is the keep- ing on hand of a large and varied stock of its manufactures, thereby facilitating the speedy performance of any work in which they may be required. The company was founded thirty-two years ago, and, owing to the able and careful management of ite officers, has been able to record, each year, a steadily increasing business, which now extends all over the coast. officers are D. A. MacDonald, President; and R. S. Faleoner, Secretary, both gentle- men.of energy and wide experience, and well calculated to look after the er great and still growing interests, the many manufacturing concerns in the city, few are more entitled to patronage, or stand better in their line than the Enterpri Mill and Building Company.—San Fran- cisco Examiner.
{Mr. D. A. MacDonald, the President of the Enterprise Mill and Building Co., is a native of the Island, and a relativé of His Honor the Lieutenant-Governor. }

Funerals Cost Too Much. The New York clergymen have complet ed the organization of the Burial Reform Association. Its motto is the scriptural passage: *‘Not to be sorry as men without hope for them that sleepin Him.” The projectjof the association is to unite all who profess and call themselves Christians vo a three-fold effort:
‘* First—To encourage burial in perishable coffins in the simple earth.
‘“* Second—To simplify and cheapen funeral and mourning ceremonials.
‘*Third—To secure large and ample tracts of suitable ground for burial purposes.
The association will seek to advance its objects by urging the following specific reforms :--
First—The exercise of economy and sim- plicity in everything appertaining to the funeral.
Second—-The use of plain hearses. Third—The disuse of crape, scarfs, feathers, velvet trappings and the like.
Fourth—The avoiding of all unchristian and heathen emblems and the use of any floral decorations beyond a few cut flowers. Fifth—The discouraging of all eating and drinking in connection with funerals. Sixth—The discouraging of any but im- mediate members of the family accompanying the body to the grave.
Seventh—The dispensing of the idea that all club or society money must be spent on the funeral.
Eighth—The early interment of the body in. soil sufficient and suitable for its dissolut’ m to its ultimate element.
Ninth—The use of such materials for the coffin as will rapidly decay after burial. Tenth—-The encouragement, on sanitary grounds, of the removal in crowded districts ofthe body to a mortuary instead of retain- ing it in a room oceupied by the living ; and | Twelfth—The ‘- pressing upon officers of public ciarities and correction the claim of the poorest to proper and reverent burial.
Bishop Potter ef New York is the President of the association and it remains to be seen how great a reform will be ac- complished.

Apvick to MorTHEers.— Mrs. Winslow's soothing Syrup should always be used when children are cutting teeth. It relieves the little sufferer at once; it produces natural quiet sleep by relieving the child from pain; and the little cherub awakes as ‘“‘bright as a button.” It is very pleasant to taste. It soothes the child, softens the gums, allays all pain, regulates the bowels, and is the best nown remedy for diarrhea, whether arising from teething or other causes. ‘I'wenty-five cents a hottle.
