The loyalty of the Scottish highlander
to his kilt is a picturesque thing. He
will neve admit that it makes him
cold, and highlanders who were suffer-
ing from cold in the ordinary dress Of
civilization have been known to substi-
tute the kilt for it in order to get
warm, though this would be much like
removing ones coat and waistcoat and
rolling up ones shirt sleeves for the
same purpose.
1t is said that a stranger, seeing a
soldier in full highlander uniform shiv-
ering in a cold wind. asked him:
SANDY, are you cold with the kilt?"
INA, ma, mon,' the soldier answered
Indignantly, "but I'm nigh kilt with
the cauld Exchange.

THE OLD HYMN.

] sat within n vacant room,
A low ceiled room, quaint shaped, oak beam,
ed,
With windows looking off TO sea,
Ger which the sunsets glory streamed.
l watched the fnroff fitting sails,
And Halfway rock that looming rose
A from the heaving sea
Whercon the scattered isles repose.
And some one near me gently played
A dear old hymn that stirred my heart.
Twas Children Of the Heavenly King"
And what it woke made quick tears start.
The long years seemed TO backward turn,
And ], a little child again,
Held fast within his strong arms clasp,
While soft he crooned the old refrain.
Oh, Just once more to be thai child
And know again the biissfuI rest
The old hymn brought me, rocked TO sleep
Will pillowed head upon his breasti
But only yet a little while,
Though earth may call it years that creep.
I know he'n come to me again
And rock me to eternal sleep.
