An Embarrassing Introduction.

A few weeks ago a well-known
young Scottish author gave an inter-
esting lecture in a Lanarkshire county
town, under the auspices of the local
improvement society.
The lecturer acquitted himself to the
entire satisfaction of the audience,
which said a great deal for his power
of self command, as the embarrassing
introduction he got would have dis
concerted the most composed of men.
The chairman of the evening was a
local %busybody, glib in speech but pro-
lix and shallow, who is never so happy
as when he is spouting from a public
platform. He introduced the lecturer
in a long and f1owery speech, in which
he alluded at great length to the emf
nent services rendered to Scottish lit
erature by the gentleman who was
about to address them. and whose name
he might say was familiar in their
months as household words"
Now" he continued, II have great
pleasure in calling upon" A pain
full pause, and then the occupants of
the front benches heard the stage
whisper, by the way, what did you
say your name was?"-Tatt1er.

he SO appreciated itA-it vas the very
incest crust, the daintiest morsel, one
could have; just as everything we did
was simply perfect Id his eyes. And
he wasn't servile about 1t. either. He
simply approved Of everything we did,
and told us SO in an eloquent, dumb

We made camp for a two weeks

fixed things generally to be comfort

Music By Electricity,

In these days of automatic piano
players it is not surprising that cleo
trictly should be requisitioned to fur
nish the motive power for the opera
tion of some of the modern types.
The compactness of the electric mech
anism for the manipulation of the
keys is a natural advantage OF such
a system that Is difficult to attain
with any method of pneumatic con-
troll. Moreover, the electric piano
player utilities metallic records
which of course are practically INDIE
structible.

On the Job 20 STAY.


In Washington not long ago Andrew
Carnegie was in conversation with
a friend when reference was made
to the servant problem" Mr.. Car.
negie mentioned the fact that in many
Scottish families the old man-serv.
ant is something Of an institution.
Such a servant usually enters the
employ of a particular family when
he is a boy, adheres faithfully to his
place for a long time, and resigns
only when the infirmities of years
crowd upon him.
AS illustrating the sturdy indepeh,
dence of the Scottish servant Mr.
Carnegie told the following:
"a certain lady in the north OF
Scotland had in her employ a crusty
old servitor, long in the service Of
the family, who gave her no end OF
annoyance by an imperious disregard
of her instructions. At length, the
situation becoming unbearable, the
mistress determined to see what eff
feet dismissal would have upon the
refractory servant. Accordingly she
summoned him and said:
Really, l can stand this no long
or. You must seek another place
At the end of the month you leave
my service
cat these words an expression q
grim amusement spread over the
countenance of the servant, but tho
characteristic loyalty asserted it
self.

A birthday party now and then,
A bit of ribbon for her hair,
A little better dress to wear,
Perhaps a pony cart to drive

A modest Increase at fifteen;
A party dress, In red or green,
A room alone that she may hx

All childish wants-she asks but love,
And dreams of Princes. tall and fair.
Who come a-wooing and who dare
All dangers and she keeps apart

"About four years ago I was afflicted
With black splotohes all over my face and
. few covering my body, which produced
Q severe itching irritation, and which
caused me a great deal of annoyance and
suffering, to such an extent that I was
forced to call in two Of the leading ply
sicians Of my town. After 6 thorough ex-
animation Of the dreaded complaint they
announced it to be skin eczema in its
worst form. They treated me for the
same for the length Of one year. but the
treatment did me no good. Finally my
HUSBAND purchased q set of the Cuticura
Remedies, and after usina the contents Of
the first bottle Of C~uticura Resolvent in
connection with tie C~nticura Soap and
Ointment, the breaking out entirely
stopped. I continued the use Of The Cuti-
cura Remedies for six months, and after
that every splctch vas entirely gone and
the affected parts were left as clear as

cured me of that dreadful disease, eczema,
but other complicated troubles a well.
