and she gave him directions where TO
meet the Cat, and how to find it, and
she told him there was only one vital
spot on that Cat, and it was a black
speck on the bottom of the Cats StOm-

his sword right through that the Cat
would surely kill him She said. My

poor Amadan, that you are dead
The Amadan babe her goodbye and
set out to travel to where the Seven
GlenS met at the sea Here there was
a precipice. and under the precipic a
cave In this cave the Silver Cat lived.
and once a day it came out TO sun it
self on the rocks.
The Amadan let himself down over
the precipice by rope. and he waited
until the Cat came out TO sun itself.
When the Cat came out at II
O'Clock and saw the Amadan, she let
a roar out of her that drove back the
waters of the sea and piled them up
quarter of a mile high, and she asked
him who he was and how he had the
impudence to come there TO meet her.
The Amadan said: They call me the
Amadan of the Dough, and have
killed Stat Nor, Stat Mari, Stat Beag,
the Cailliach of the Rocks and her four
BadachS. the Black Bull of the Brown
Wood the White Wether of the Hill
of the Waterfalls, the Beggarman of
the King of Sweden, and before night

a dead man you will be yourself" And

But the Amadan raised his sword and
struck at her, and both of them fell
to the fight. and a great, great fight
they had They made the hard ground
into soft, and the soft into spring wells:
they made the rocks into pebbles, and
the pebbles into gravel, and the gravel
fell over the country like hailstones.
All the birds of the air from the lower
END of the world to the upper end of
the world, and all the wild beasts and
tame from the four ends of the earth,
came hocking to see the fight, and if
the fights that the Amadan had had on
the other days were great and terrible,
this one was far greater and far more
terrible than all the others put togeth-
er. and the poor Amadan SOrely feared
that before night fell he would be a
dead man.
The red woman was watching at the
well in her garden, and she was sorely
distressed, for though at one time the
honey was uppermost, at another time
it was all blood, and again, the blood
and the honey would be mixed, so she
felt bad for the poor Amadan.
At length the blood and the honey got
mixed again, and it remained that way

They made the hard ground into soft,

made the rocks into pebbles, and the

from the four ends of the earth, came
hooking to see the fight, and in the end
the Amadan ran the Stat Nor through
with his sword and laid him down dead.
Then he turned TO help the three
princes, and very soon he laid the other
two giants down dead for them also.
Then the three princes said they
would all go home. The Amadan said
for them to go, but warned them not TO
light uD the castle this night, and he
would sit by the giants corpses and

fail, she opened her mouth so wide that
the Amadan saw down to the very bot
tom of her stomach. and there he saw
the black speck that the red woman
had told him Of And just before he
dropped, he drove his sword through
this spot, and the Silver Cat, too, fell
over dead.
1t was not long now till the red wo-
man arrived at the palace and found
Doth the Amadan and the cat lying
side by side dead. At this the poor wo-
man was frantic with sorrow. but sud-

once he was as hale and as fresh as

When the Cailliach was dead the
Amadan took her feather and her bot

and started away before him TO fulfill

A ROMANCE OF THE PLAGUE.
Two Young Women Fall Victims
Through Youths Kindness
(From the London Chronicle.)


The last time the plague visited GIas-
| gov with excessive yirulence was in Au-
gust, 1915. Then, on the 18th of that
month, the Marquis Of Montrose who
fought under the standard of Charles l.
sisnally defeated the Coyenanters under
General Bailie at Kilsyth. Thereupon the
provost and corporation of the pestiIence
stricken city sent ENJOYS with a message
of congratulation to the Marquis and a
warm invitation to him and his soldiers
to partake of Glasgow's hospitality Mont
rose, at the head Of his troops, entered the
city and was sumDtuously entertained. but
would not stay on account of the cpl
demic. However, as a matter of business.
apart from sentiment, he levied a heavy
tax for supplies upon his Glaswegian
hosts, to their huge disgust
A memento OF a pathetic romance con-
nected with the 1915 plague visitation in
Scotland is a rallied enclosure on the bank
OF the Almond, in the parish of Methvan,
Ierthshire. It marks the spot where lie

respectively OF the laird of Kfnvaid and

Brooklyn Rapid Transit and MetropoH-

part Of the day. The two cliques in
these stocks are both confident of sue
cess Wormser is selling and the J. 0.
Paine crowd is following him. The bulls
say that the boom will be carried to 20
at least The entire situation depends
largely on whether the Metropolitan peo-
pie are really buying Brooklyn Rapid
Transit. If they are buying the stock or
rather have bought it there is excellent
reason to suppose that it will advance.
If the Metropolitan is not buying the
Brooklyn system and if no other crowd of
astute railway men are arranging to take
the management away from the present
crowd the stock can only be advanced by
the professionals and then probably not
much. Tie present management does not
seem to be the one that can put the COM
pany on dividend basis this year or next.
