wonder, perhaps, why SCOTS

be led into buying the "just

island Now a Paradise Was Once
Barren Volcanic Waste.

Charles Quincy Turner, writing
on 'The Magic of the RAIN" in
the Outing magazine, gives a
very remarkable example of how
a desert island may be trans
formed into a yeritable paradise.
BY way of example, he cites the
island of st. Helena, which was
a barren volcanic waste at the
time Napoleon was sent there.
The following paragraph shows
what a remarkable change came
over the island at the arrival Of
the English:
'GThe Englishmen were there,
however, to stay and for duty,
and though they had to send to
st. Helena for every drop of wa
ter they used, they set about a
beginning of making something
grow toward sustaining life, or
at least modifying conditions.
Gradually, by slow degrees but
surely, their efforts were success
full. Kindly nature requires but
little encouragement, and the
dews fell and crystalized and the
heritage and shrubbery spread,
and little trees took root and
shed their seed, and the noun.

THE OLDEST BREED OF DOGS.
Egyptian GazeIle Hound, a Wedding
Present to Queen Of Spain.

A beautiful Egyptian gazelle
hound (Slughi) was among the
wedding gifts of the young queen
of Spain. The dog, which is a
lovely pale cream color and
named Saddan, was the gift Of
the Hon. Florence Amherst. who
ia a sister of Lady William Cecil,
who has been in waiting on the
queen of Spain in Madrid.
These desert hounds are
among the latest of society's pets
and bid fair to outrun in popular
ity even the aristocratic BorzOi,
which is the nearest in character
to the eastern greyhound, and is
probably derived from him.
The Slughis are perhaps the
oldest breed in the world, not
even excepting the historic span
lei of the palace of Peking.
Their form was sculptured on
some of the earliest of Egyptian
mural tablets. and some monu.
ments preserve the names of ia
vorite hounds of various kings.
The pedigrees Of noble hounds
notable for their speed In the
chase are current today, having
been traditionally handed down
among the sheiks of Bedouin
tribes of the deserts of Egypt
and Arabia as from the days OF
Saladin, one of whose hounds
was named Saadan, while Per
siaE mobiles claim that strains
they swn are older than either
and that the breed first origin
Rted in Persia.
The color of the Slughi is thai
Of the desert over which he
chases the gazelle, and varies al
