Origin of kits.

1t will doubtless surprise many
Scotchmen to learn that the kilt as at
present worn is only a modern fancy
costume and is not of Scottish origin
at all. The honor of its invention is
due to two EnglLshmen-an army tailor
who accompanied General Wades
forces TO Scotland in 1719 and Thom
as Rawlinson, overseer of some iron
works in GlengaTy's country. For
more than century previously. in
deed the tartan plaid had been the
common garb of the highlanders, but
it was all in one piece, wound in folds
around the body. leaving the knees
bare. Prior to the adoption of the tar
tan, which probably took place about
the close of the fifteenth century, the
long, loose saffron colored skirt, the
real "garb of old Gaul," was the high
land dress.-London Mail.

Damascus. a Garden City.

Damascus is garden.z zcity touched
by the great desert Under its roses
one feels le sands. Beside it's trem-
bling wat,,s one dreams of the trem
bling mirage. The cry of its muezzins
seems to echo from it's mosque towers
to that most wonderful thing In nature
which is God without man" The
breath of the wastes passes among the
poplars as that Bedouin boy passed
among the merchants when he came
and when he went. In Damascus one
hears the two voices. And when one
looks from the sacred mountain upon
that city OF dream, Graded among the
woods, one sees far off the tawny be
ginnings of that other magic which
looks out from the Bedouin's eyes.
And thoueA perhaps with the pilgrims
from Samarkand one loves to rest be-
side the fountains under the hedges
of roses, one is aware of the other
love, intercourse with which has made
Damascus an earthly paradise for
them and for you.-Robert Hichens in

TIE Power of Napoleon.

The desperate struggle to do some
thing worth while is the very thing
which draws out our reserve forces
and develops latent power, says Ori-
son SWEET Marden in Success Maga-
zine. Without this struggle many peo.
pie would never have discovered their
real selves. Napoleon was never so
resourceful, never so level headed, nev-
er had that vigorous mental grasp,
was never able to make such powerful
combinations. as when he was driven
to desperation. 1t was when all
bridges were burned behind him and
there was no possibility of retreat that
the possible Napoleon came to the res
cue. Napoleon said of his great gen.
eral Messena that he never showed
his mettle until he saw the wounded
and dead falling all around him in bat
tie. Then the lion in him was arous-
ed, and he fought like demon.

1t is not correct to say that GENE

The word is from the Greek "koime-

the place Of the dead. There is moth

warrant us in thinking that it was

that the departed were really dead any
