scOtsmen Leave Native Land.

Ten years ago Scotland had a popu.
lation in round numbers of $500 900.
Now it has 100000, SO that the in.
crease in ten years has been less
than seven per cent as compared
with more than eleven per cent for
the previous decade. Various causes
have been assigned for the check to
the growth of the community, but the
greatest cause is undoubtedly the ex.
traordinary emigration from all parts
OF Scotland to Canada and the Unit.
ed States during the last five or six
years. About 10000 persons have
gone to Canada alone in this period.
Both the country and the cities are
affected. Thousands of old home.
steads have been abandoned by those
who have yielded to the attractions
of the new world. Agriculturists and
many of the best artisans have gone
with their families.

OF regular race track in the vicinity that is the

feature of every such meet was found in the
racing, hose-laying and ladder contests of the
various volunteer fire companies from all the

tournament was held. Lattery horse
drawn fire-fghting apparatus has come into more
general use and even the motor hose wagons

assigned 100 years as the period of race, after
which 1t must be succeeded by another.
The various activities of man, according to
Professor Petrie. related in the same order
in each successive period This can be best
traced in the medieval and classical periods
where the stages of sculpture, painting, litera-
ture music, mechanics, science and wealth
spread some seven centuries. These stages
nearer together in earlier ages, but the or
der was always the so far as can be traced
The starting point Of each civization-as of
each generation-is a mixture Of blood. With
out fusion Of race no fresh start can be made
About six eight centuries needed for the
rise to the sculpture stage. The growth Of civil
lization largely consists in frightening out Of
the subsequent stages of activity, and diminu-
ton of the stagnant period before a mix
ture is started. The period seems to belong to
the people and not to the country, and is kept
by the people when they go to land of a diff
ferent phase.
Though no doubt, climatic periods have a
precipitating effect in throwing one people on to
another. yet the general regularity of interval
Of the stages of growth Of civilization point to
a racial determinant. This may be the time re-
quired to promote the maximum mixture of diff
ferent strains in two races which are in cor
tact.--London Globe.

The meaning of life has in all ages been the
goal of human thought and the great extension
OF our knowledge of the past, by the researches
OF recent years, enables now to view the
course of human changes with more complete
ness than has been the before. In place of
looking on the fall of the Roman empire as a
mcnstrous and nexplicable fact, we now see that
civilization is not only intermittent but is a reg
ularly recurrent phenomenon"
This was the theory propounded by Prof. Film
ders Petrie in a lecture delivered at the Royal
institution THE Revolutions of Civilization"
In Egypt, said the lecturer, we can trace eight
civilizations; the first prehistoric; the second
prehistoric. the early dynastc. the pyramid build
ers, the middle kingdom (XIIth Dynasty the EN-
pre (XVIIIth dynasty), the Greek and the Arab.
The rise and fall Of art in each Of these periods
can be we'll illustrated. Similar periods are
found In Europe, the early, middle and late Gre
TAM the classical and the medieval These pc
RODS are contemporary with those Of Egypt. so
far as we can ascertain. Hence the Medterra-
mean civilization seems distinct unit, rising
and falling together one body The Mesopo-
taman civilization is in a different phase to that
Of the Mediterranean. but its period is about the
same.
similar period of about 1900 years has oc-
Cured in India and Mexico. The Etruscan sageS
