Inverness.

There is an uncanny, semi-barbaric
element in Scottish history, with its
warning clans and violent rom lnces,
that half fascinates, half repels.
Some traditions say that Inverness.
the capital Of the Highlands, was in
existence before the birth of Christ.
Towards the end of the sixth century
it was the capital of the Pictish King
dom, and in sos st. COLUMBIA and
some of his followers visited it, and
were successful i'll converting to
Christianity Brude sII., King of the
Picts, In S43 the Pictish and Scottish
Kingdoms were united under the rule of
Kenneth McAlpin, and Inverness then
lost thedistinction of being capital Of
the next two centuries little is known
of its history, until in 1899 it is sup
posed to have been the scene of
Duncan's murder by Macbeth.
Macbeth's castle is said to have stood
upon the crown of the hill, and
circular plot of ground, rallied in and
planted with trees is asserted to have
been its site.
In 1l6l Shaw, second son of Ducan,
fifth Earl of Fife, for his assistance
to Malcolm in quelling revolt, was
made hereditary governor Of the castle
of Inverness. In 1929 the town was
burnt, and the neighboring crownlands
were ravaged by a freebooter, named
Gillespick McScourlane, who after
wards paid the penalty of his evil
deeds with the life of himself and his
two sons.
In 1888 the first Protestant minister
was appointed, and in 1910 woman,
one Margaret Cowie, a Morayshire
woman, started school. This SO
offended the authorities that they

Our Young People.
What Boys Are Wanted.

Boys of spirit, boys of wills
Boys of muscle, brain and power.
Fit to cope with anything;
These are wanted every hour.
Not the weak whining drones,
That all trouble magnify
Not the watchword of II can't
But the noble one, "I'll try"
Do what'er you have to do
With a true and earnest zeal:
Bend your sinews to the task;
Put your shoulder to the wheel.
Though your duty may be hard,
Look not on it as an i'll.
If it be an honest task,
DO it with an honest will.
At the anvil, on the farm.
Wheresoever you may be,
From your future efforts, boys,
Comes a nations destiny.

passed resolution restricting
Margaret's Scriptural teaching to
proverbs.
In 1862 the great fortress was de-
troyed by the English soldiery. In
1865 a serious qnarrel was induced by
that calm but indigestible article-the
cheese. Some women were selling
these tempting articles in market
at the top of a hill. A hungry
youth, one Finlay Dubh, lifted one of
the wares and asked the price. Dis
gnsted at his inability to buy it, he
rolled the fruit of the dairy to the
bottom of the hill. The woman de-
manded payment, and a chivalric
Highlander, acquainted with Finlay's
impecuniosity, seized that worthy's
bonnet and tossed it to the woman, after
which general battle was indulged
in, and two of the Mcdonald clan
were slain.
The night before the blttle of
Culloden, Prince Charles slept in the
town-house of Lady Dummuir, and the
next night, after the downfall of the
Stuarts' cause, the same bed was
occupied by the "Royal Butcher''
Cumberland.
In April, lag, one of Priuce
Charles's soldiers went to minister,
named Thompson, and demanded that
he should pray for the Pretender as
the lawful sovereign The plrson
declined to pray for him, except as 4
fellow-sinner.
"We'll have our horses in your
church next Sunday" said the soldier.
Sand we'll have them out in time
for the litany the Sunday following"
said the imperturbable preacher.
On the 18th of April the horses
were stabbed in the chnrch On the
10th the battle of Culloden was fought.
On the , st the minister had his church.

In l745 two sisters wero tortured

The Royal Academy was opened in

There was a certain Stone called the
calachna-cudain, signifying the stone
of the tubs lit being the place where
formerly water-carriers had rested
their burdens), and was regarded by
the people with great vcneration. 1t
was the centre around which the
towns people gathered for CONVERSE
ton, and the young men would chip
stones from it as souvenirs when they
went away from home.

are pretty closely related, and should
pull together.) l have heard one OF
your little sister chicks sing this little
song.
There was Little Chick,
had funny little trick
Of scratching up gravel with lis toes.
But he never took bite
Of a thing he brought to light,
Until lie smelled it over with his nose.
But this funny Little Chick,
With his funny little trick,
Came one day across pepper very hot,
Which made him quickly sneeze:
And as quickly cough and wheeze,
Till he wondered il his head was off or
not.
So any Little Chick,
Who has Il little trick
Of tnrning up his nose at all he sees;
Should meet, on some fine day,
When least he thinks he may,
cough aud sneezt.
In order toappreciate the tricky lit
tie "Chick" ylu would need to hear
the little sister Chick sing it and inn
atate the s'coueh and sneeze," in their
proper places. Perhaps we had bet
ter look sharp, and not turn up our
noses at anything until we are sure it
deserves contempt. There is nothing
about an honest farmer, or his honest,
Industrious wife or their children, (if
they are like their parents) to cause
any respectable person to turn up his
nose at them. There is no more hon
orable way of making a living, than by
farming; if the farming is well and
honestly done. Remember that, boys
and girls and stick to the farm. There
is very much | should like to say to
you about farm life, but haze already
spun long yarn, and must soon
stop for this time But as your good
Editor may not consenttoany more hen
talk, just want to say to you, don't
let anyone make YOU believe that little
farmers do not need a good school edu-
cation. 1t is a very serious mistake
to think that you do not need school
books to help You to understand the
great book of nature, which stands open
to all little country boys and girls. God
made the country; man made the town
And Gods work We know is more
wonderful than mans

Religious Unity.


To the Editors Of the Appeal:
Professionals for several years have
made repeated attempts ID create
religious unity in their camps,
or even among all who as
sumo the Christian name. Some
Oust now q wTitsr in the Cen
tiuy) attempt to create this desirable
unity by the adoption Of q uniform
liturgy, as II the essence of religion
consists In the liturgy--the outward
show, or rite, Of religion, and not
rather in the interior acts OF faith,
hope and charity, i.e., the assent TO
the divine word and the fulfllment Of
its precepts. Two men may bow their
heads or bend their knees or PROSTATE
on the ground, and st the fame time
may be as contradicting as devil ard
angel, and as contrary as fire and
water. How different from such no.
ton is the Catholic doctrine on this
point. In the Catholic Church there
is actually great variety in liturgy,
but there is an entire and most perfect
unity in doctrine and in the moral code.
Catholics most perfectly agree in re-
gard to what must be accepted for
sure as the word OF God, and what
every one mutt regard as right or
wrong, according to sound reason and
Gods outspoken will. Catholics
firmly hold that in matters OF faith,
hope and charity there must be alb
soluts unity, but in the outward ser
vice, as far as 1t is not essential to the
form Of the sacraments, there should
be uniformity 80 far az circumsta uces
and usages allow it. No man OF COM
mon good sense can object to this idea
OF unity among Christians. "In
necessary things unity, in doubtful or
Indifferent things liberty, but in all
things charity" is the old Augustin-
ian motto in the Catholic Church.
Even the Apostles Peter ard James,
or any other, may differ in their lit
urRy and at the same time remain
fnt rate Christians, with true relig-
GUS unity and charity.
A uniformity in liturgy (if such be
poesible) could never express the es-
sential common faith OF Catholics,
nay, not even Of Proteetants and Prot
estants. This would involve an open
contradiction, Nobody must doubt
that faith, hope and charity are the
first essentials OF true religion. There
fore uniformity in ceremonies only
can never be called true religious
unity OF Christianity. V.

Mrs. Testy-Yes, I'm glad to say

Mrs. Testy-But my husband
never kicked over the stove.
Mrs. Crusty-Are you sure ofthatH
Mrs. Testy-Yes, I'm sure of it;
but l heard your husband did.
Mrs. Crusty-Well, whoever told
you that told a falsehood; besides,
I'd rather my husband would kick
over the stove than to kick me,
like l heard certain woman's hus-
band did.
Mrs. Testy-Ohl you mean thing
Ny husband never gave me as much
as a cross word in his life.
Mrs. Crusty-No, and l suppose
he never came home intoxicated.
Mrs. Testy-Yes, I'll admit that;
but then he doesn't squander all his
money and leave his family suffering
for bread.
Mrs. Crusty-I can prove that my
husband is not spend:hriit.
Mrs. Testy-Prove it, please.
Mrs. Crusty-Why, he buys his
clothes at the Misfit Parlors, 262
Second street.
Mrs. Testy-And so does mine.
He says he can save money enough
there on suit and overcoat to buy
coal for the entire winter.
Mrs. Crusty-Thats just the re-
mark my husband made. He said
the overcoat he got there for S22 was
worth $40, and the suit he paid $40
for could not have been made to sell
for less than $35.
Mrs. Testy-I'm sorry, dear, that l
said anything about yout husband.
Mrs. Crusty-Never mind, it was
all my fault; but l guess we'd been
quarreling yet if it hadn't been for
the Misft Parlors. Graciousl what
happiness they do bring to Memphis.
Mrs. Testy-Yes, the Misft Par
lors are a real blessing. There are
bargains there for rich and poor, for
it sells the finest of custom-made
clothing at prices which do not often
represent the cost price of clothing.
