Journal Press is a synopsis of the essay
Of Miss Floy Corbin a member of the
graduating class of 1889, of the Normal
school in that city. the subject being
characteristics of Scott" scott is the
father Of the historic novel. He takes
his plot rs well as his characters from
history. This makes his novels worth
reading and they arc, full of. interest
from the fact that his kings and other
great persons are as real and life-like as
his servants and gypsies. SCOTS novels
were instrumental in establishing a
friendly feeling between the Highland
ers and the Lowlanders. They have
done much towards making Scotland
famous. They are read and appreciated
all over the world, as they have been
translated into the language Of every
civilization.

all our eyes.
In one of the carriages was young lady,

On next Tuesday we shall have the happi-

men of letters on the occasion of his S0th
birthday. 1t was on the 9th of August,
1909. that Alfred Tennyson was born at
Somersby, woodland village half way be-
tween the wolds and the fens of Lincoln
shire. Eighty full years have poured their
sunshine and their rain. their joys and their
sorrows on that noble head, and have left
the natural wisdom, the trenchant wit, the
deep-mouthed music, little mellowed. per-
haps, but unimpaired. Last spring. as we
all remember. the east winds and the wet of
an English April reused the latent gout
that now and again torments the poet, and
for while he grew so weak with pain that
those who love him-snd they are counted
by thousands-held their breath with alarm.

~'Speaking Of dogs" said gentleman from
Avondale, discussing some of the recent dog
stories told by the delegate. "there is a little
fox-terrier owned by one of my acquaintance.
His mistress thought SO much of him that.
when he was pup. she used to battle HIM
every day. First she would battle the baby,
then the dog would be given his douse in the
water. But she never used the CASTLE soap,
which was reserved exclusively for the baby. on
the dog. He, poor animal, had to be content
with ivory soap. This discrimination evidently
annoyed the terrier. The other day his mis-
tress saw him 60 upstairs a little before the
hour for the bath.
'.She followed on tiptoe to see what he was
doing. She saw him go to the bathroom, pick
up the cake of ivory IN his mouth and drop it
out of the window. His mistress, just previous
to the bath. secured the soap and put it in her
pocket. When the dogs turn in the tub came.
he deliberately picked up the CASTLE soap, and
wagged his tail joyously as he put 1t in his
mistress hand Then she produced the ivory
soap. You should have seen the poor dog. He
was utterly woebegone and crestfallen. Never
saw dog look so cheap in my life"

Remarkable History.
New York Star.I
A man who has had remarkable history is
now visiting the East and this city for the first
time since the close of the war. Short and
stocky, with a handsome. sun-browned face
State Senator John o. Milne of Minnesota, is
one of the best known farmers of the beauti-
full State of $4,000 lakes. Mr.. Milne was born
in Fall River, Mass, where his brothers are
leaders in the social, political and business
world: The principal daily paper in that city is
owned by them.
John D. went West long before the war and
became a famous hunter. He knew every mile
of hunting ground from La Crosse to the Red
river of the North, and claims to have been the
f rst man to discover that the source of the
Mississippi was not Lake Itaska, as promul-
gated by Schoolcraft in 1892 but a spring, or
series of springs. much farther north, and
which Captain Glazier has since conclusivey
shown to be the real origin of the mighty
stream. Mr.. Milne is personally acquainted
with nearly all the older chiefs of the Sioux
and Apaches, and can talk their languages
like an aborigine. When Sitting Bull aud his
6,OOO warriors were brought under military es-
cort to Bismarck in 1881, Mr.. Milne visited the
camp and was received by Sitting Bull with
extraordinary honors. The Sioux call him the
Little Man Great with the Rifle"
