A CurLp's FAIru.-In the Highlands
Of Scotland, there is q mountain gorge
twenty feet in width, and two hundred
feet in depth. Its sides are bare OF vese-
tation, save in the creyiccs, IN which
grow numerous wild flowers Of rare beau
ty. DESTROYS of obtaining specimens Of
these mountain beauties, some seleatltic
tourists once offered Highland boy a
handsome gift if he would consent to be
lowered down the cliff by rope, and
would gather a little basket full of them.
The boy looked wistfuly at the money
his parents wero poor, but when he gaz,d
at the yawning ehasm, he shudIered,
shrunk back and declined But filial love
was strong within him, and after another
glance at the gift, and at the terrible hs-
sure, his heart grew strong, and his eye
flashed, ard he said:
- will go if my FATHER 'oiH Aofd tie
rope
And then. With unshrinking nerves, and
heart firmly strong he suffered his father
to put the rope about him, lower him IN
to the wild abyss, and to suspend HIM
there while he filled his basket with the
coyerted flowers. 1t was daring deed,
but his fathers arm and the love of his
fathers heart gave him courage aud pow
or to perform it.
