These figures were quite borne out by M.

to 1856 kiiogrammes Of dry starch which is

mouldering an old stone building, with de-

" the old haunted Kirk Alloway, so famous
in Tam O'Shanter."
All these scenes combined could not daunt
the courage of the young mountaineer as he
marched on with quickening pace But just
as he was approaching the old haunted build
ing, which has for many years been frequented
by the ghost of a mysterious old lady, who
many years ago suddenly disappeared, as an
old fireside legend has it, and took up her
abode in the vaults of this old building, which
was anciently used by band of exiled monks,
and thought to have been built by them at
least a century ago, and which has for many
years been hidden from public notice, I'M
visited for a long time by any human being,
there, suddenly rising from the ground like
the ghost of Banquo, appeared before him a
tall, dark apparition with outst.etched hands
and glowing eyes revolving in their fiery
sockets, and tangled gray hair, wearing a
loose black robe descending from the shoulder
to tho feet.
The boy stood amazed, motionless and
dumb This scene lasted but for moment
The ghost, as suddenly as it appeared, disap-
peared. Recognizing his situation the boy
Immediately made forward double quick at
an almost incredible rate CHANGING over his
shoulder no saw the old monastery lighted by
candles, which were held in the hands of d
solemn procession of monks in their religious
attire as they dreaded noiselessly around an
iron coffin in the center of the floor Upon
the coffin were two candles, one upon the head,
the other upon the foot. Each monk carried
a cross of his order and they were chanting
an old English tune.
Upon the head Of the coffin was a golden
cross, and as each monk passed the cross ne
made low bow and uttered some words of
prayer Suddenly all was dark and the
vaulted doors of the interior part of the old
monastery were heard to open and creak
upon their rusty hinges, and then began a
clicking of chains and a chaos of ghostly
noises, which were soon hushed, the vaulted
doors closing with slam. All was now ST.
lent and the owl again began his hooting
and the wind was heard signing through the
pines.
No consideration could have kept the boy
long on this lonely spot, He rushed onward
and reached home almost unconscious. He
aroused the family with his terrific cries.

camphor were made that he was able to tell

Raising the Hat.

On the proper method of performing that

performed; at other times they removed them

turo A certain Comte de Larmandie, in his

st. German for the year 1889, has now laid
down rules respecting the coup de chapeau
which are based on the precedents furnished
by the most modern and most fashionable
members of the very best society in the city.
The man Of fashion, according to the count,
must now remove his hat in salutng with a
broad sweeping gesture which is at the same
time elegant and brusque. The hat, having
remained well aloft for a while, must be
brought down on the head quickly like a
sword into its scabbard. The person saluting
should preserve an impassive countenance as
much as possible while going through his ele-
CANT evolutions, but the count does not find
fault with little smile on the features, the
said smpering movement being either patron
izing or familiar, as occasion may require

with it. He was pretty well tired out when

An otter belonging to q Scotch gentleman
was so tame that whenever it was alarmed
by strange dogs it would endeavor to spring
into its masters arms for protection This
animal was accustomed to fish in the stream
that flowed close to its masters dwelling; it
would catch eight or ten salmon in the course
of the day. 1t was equally expert in the sea,
where it caught numbers of Goldfish. Itwould
hunt in this manner till it was tired, when it
refused to enter the water again. Its master
then fed it with the produce of its sport, and
after it had taken sufficient it went OFF to
sleep and was generally carried home in that

How to Keep Your Bed from Rocking.
Lieut. Beale, of the signal service, says that
If parties who are disturbed by what is termed
''rocking beds' in the time of storms will
open the windows of their houses on what
sailors term the "leeward side," that is to
say, ON the side opposite to that whence the
storm comes, they will not be troubled with it.
"The rocking is the result he explains "of
a difference between the air indoors and that
on the outside. When a bigger puff comes
the bed, forced by the air within, which seeks
to join that outdoors, moves in one direction
and is forced back when the puff becomes
lighter. Relieve the pressure by opening the
windows and this so-called rocking ceases.
Many house that has been blown down in a
tornado would have been spared its owner
had this fact been known. The proof of what
! say as to this pressure is shown in the fact
that houses, after great storms, are frequent
ly found with the leeward wall only blown
out and the other three remaining intact. -
