Some Odd Pince-NanGs IS.


Some holiday OF an eccentric turn
should some time or other occupy himself
IN visiting all the places with curious
names within the four seas Of Britain. He
would find plenty 10 do. II Is q far cry
from Cullvbackey 10 Cwm. and even
though the tourist break the journey al
Chirk. Ccfu, Frougoch, or any other conve-
nient haltiug- place, the expedition Is long
one. There isscarccly any district OF the
kingdom which does not otter its centres OF
interest. Billerlcay and ChinnOr are within
easy reach of the metropolis: nor are Nurs-
ling and Wetwang beyond the reach OF a
modern excursion Birmingham VIII be
found capital centre for visiting Pleck
and I've a. also Great Coates at Great
Barr. Black Bull of course Is further
north. while Bay Horse and White Bear
and Three Cocks are in very different d.
rectiOns.
The South Wales district offers a variety
Of delightful resorts, including tochrw,
Ynysddu, Goyilon;. Ll9nglydwen;; and
Ilwvnpia; Strata Florida and Lllhput-
road may DE included. Any person with
Gift for languages and considerable
amount of leisure would doubtless en-
iov the beauties of PenrhyndeudraOth
while CarnO and Cemmes should
not be missed. The attractions OF
Brymbo and Pablo are familiar TO
yisitants of North Wales. and BOdOrgan Is
worth q day. The Bugsworth country
has many interesting associations, end IT'S
close proximity o. Chcquerbent IS an adj
vantage. Bible-classes may suitably visit
Bethesda. though il must be admitted that
n route arranged TO pass through Jordans-
town. Jericho. and Joppa would be te-
dIOus in the extreme.
Those persons who are sometimes de
scribed by their friends as having a snort
way with them" VIII easily crafty their
tastes by a visit 10 DraX, Drigg, Drum. or
Drem. Cults is long way from kesh, but
both are delightful while Croy, Frant,
Wool, ard Yarn are sureto be pleasant, each
in its own small way, For ladies and other
tourists endowed with delicate sensibll-
ties "a circular journey from Felin-Hen 20
KittybrewstCr, including Bulttle, Nhlm-
pie, Little Kimble. Darcy Lever, and Petit
90. will probably proyeottractive, while for
"A more masculine mind Stranocum. Gogar,
Dduallt, Horseleap. and Strathbungo offer
great opportunities. IL Is not necessary 70
cross the sea 10 pass from Britannia 20
Etruria, nor 10 go to India to reach Patna.
We can arrive at Omoa IN very few min
utes from Charing-CrOss, while Twenty
and Dollar are both this side of the Allan
tic.
Every one who knows Cam knows Guy;
familiar 10 the general public. II IS tire
some cross journey from Mells TO Meols,
but a run through Iillietudlem will bring
US TO the neighborhood Of Dennyloanhead,
whence the Ibrox country can be visited
with ease. Stobs and Stobo both lie some
what to the south. while Luib is situated
in the delightful country 70 the west: IL
would be pity 10 60 so far north and not
10 visit 10th, while Udny and Oyne lie
close together within easy reach: But !: -
not necessary to 90 80 far ateld as Scot
land 70 find novelty and interest. In the
eastern counties alone we can choose be-
tween Corpusty, Whaplode, and Pinch
beck. between Manea and Stonea.
Indeed, il is not easy 20 exhaust the de-
lightful possibilities which our own coun-
try offers so the diligent seeker after yarlc-
". We have snid nothing Of Iydu, OF llr
Phil, of Largo or Iif, Of Llynclys or
Wylye, Of Dess and Diss. Heck and Hoy,
Rsunds or Racks; nor have We mentioned
spots bearing such stately names as fsta-
lyfera,. Hairnyres. Balfron, Aspatrla. or
Barassie.
BY way Of Uphill and Blacksboat we
might start on the road TO Hope Ex-
change, while we might discuss our jour.
