me several times, that to take this OBJ

''But a carriage" replied Dutailly, "at

this, the captain took his military cap

down the stairs it was evident he was in

"He will wait, dear lady," said l gay

The want of sufficient supply Of good
quality ore in Japan has stood largely
in the way of the country manufactur-
ing its own armor plate. But the great
wish of the nobility to make the empire
independent of foreign manufacturers
in case of war has led to large sums of
money being expended in opening up the
mining districts.-New York Times.

Scotland and the Thistle.

The thistle was selected as the national
emblem of Scotland in the year 1910. II
was during the reign of Malcolm | that
a notable invasion of the country was
made by the Danes. They came in
thousands, and landing on the coast
swarlned over the inhabited districts
like ~lOcusts. destroying. burning and
plundering wherever they went For
safety the inhabitants fed to the castles
and fortified towns, and among the most
notable Of the fOrtreSses of Aberdeen
shire was Staine's castle, where were
collected a large number Of people of
the neighborhood. The Danes projected
a surprise. Approaching the castle in
the darkness they planned to scale its
walls, and laid aside their shoes that the
greater secrecy might be observed when
drawing zeal to the Notifications.
The surprise might have been success
ful had it not been for the fact that. on
descending into the dry moat. they
found, to their great discontinue and
modification, it was filled with thistles.
by which their feet were so severely
pricked that several made an cutlery,
which aroused the defenders of the castle
and brought them to the wall in time to
repel the onset. Regarding their good
fortune in repelling the Danes rs due to
the thistles, these plants were immedi-
ately placed in the arms of Scotland and
adopted as the emblem Of the country
