Legend of HoIyrood Palace.

Holyrood palace. Edinburgh. Scot

the subject of a strange legend. Rob-
ert Louis Stevenson alludes to 1t in his
little book on Edinburgh. '"There Is a
silly story" he writes, "of subterra-
mean passage between the castle of
Holyrood and bold highland piper
who volunteered to explore its wind
ings. He made his entrance by the up

rious footed 1t after him down the
street, following his descent by the
sound of the chanter from below, until
all of a sudden, about the level of St
Giles, the music came abruptly to an
end and the people In the street stood
at fault with hands uplifted. Whether
he was choked with gases or perished
in a quag or was removed bodily by
the evil one remains point of doubt,

a Picture of Niuht,

Along the high hedged lane John
Strong swung. the June cleaning deep
ening into night. He loved to shove
his face into the night. He gloried in
the uncertainty of night. the indefi-
niteness of night, and his soul cried
back a wild answer to the cry of the
nighthawk and the owl. Night is more
primitive than day: night Is more
calamitous; night is savage; night
everywhere is the true aborigine. Day
has taken on civilization. Night hurls
the world back to the day of the war
club. the flint arrowhead. the painted
visage John Strong loved the night
with an almost malevolent love- In
the night he could hear the Valkyries
screaming. the witches riding their
broomsticks. the ghouls scraping the
mold from off the new buried coffin.
John Strong swung along, his face set
to meet oncoming night.-Adventure.

In the habit Of drinking tea at much

take it about 40 TO l45 degrees F..

But the habit of swallowing such
tea is injurious to the stomach. and II

grees. which feels little more than
pain If the hand is dipped in 1t and

He has. however. some good words
to say for the early morning tea.
This morning tea in any case should
be taken at least an hour and half
before the first meal of the day. For
many years | have been accustomed
to write for an hour every morning IN

OF the 10000 newspapers published

guage. OF these about $4,000 are
published in the United States and
Canada and $500 in Great Britain.
Germany comes next with 5000. In
asmuch as the newspaper is the hand
maiden of civilization these figures
are significant. No better estimate of
community can be obtained than by
a study Of the newspapers supported
by the people. The paper is an
accurate mirror of social, political
and, industrial conditions. Whenever
a community Is found supporting a
large number of progressive news
papers, that community will invari-
ably be found to be progressive, her
citizens intelligent and industrious
and all OF her institutions In q -four
ishing condition. AS with the COM
munity SO 1t is with the country at
large. Her newspapers reflect her
standing as a nation.

Apropos of the immigrant question
the fact that the attorney general Is
proceeding against the international
steam ship lines under the Sherman
law is very significant and far-reach-
ing. The reason Europe is scraped,
as it were, with a fine tooth comb
for the million or more of immigrants
annually landing in this country Is
found to a great extent that steer
age traffic is immensely profitable to
the great steam ship lines. They
make millions yearly in this traffic
and it Is a well known fact that they
carry large bodies of steerage pas
sengers both ways. At least half a
million are taken Eastward back to
the "old country" every year. All the
steam ship lines have immigrant
bureaus and travelling agents using
every means and inducement to bring
immigrants to this country.

do all one needs. Too many persons

HOME OF FALcoNRY.
The kirehiz Hunt Wolves and Foxes
With Great Golden Eagles.

With Great Golden Eagles.
All wanderers are lovers of the
chase. but for sheer love of sport and
daring exploits the Kirghiz take the
palm. Central Asia is the home Of
falconry. which was not introduced
into Europe until the crusaders
brought back falcons with them from
their eastern wanderings. But imagine
the ambition of the men who fly their
birds at wolves and foxes instead of
at quails and partridges. Not content
with hunting game birds with small
falcons. the Kirghiz capture and train
the great golden eagles, with which
they hunt such game as gaZelles. foxes
and even wolves.
\ well mounted kirghiz falconer.
carrying on his wrist one of these
magnificent birds, is a fine sight. The
weight of the eagle is such that the
owner requires u support for his wrist.
and the hunters are usually to be seen
with a little wooden bracket that sup
ports the arm against the hip. The
eagles are hooded. as all falcons are.
but can be used only in winter, when
they are hungry and keen. In summer
they are fed on marmots and live a
restful life. sitting in the sun in front
of the tent doors.
When gaZelles or wolves are the OBJ
jects of the chase the eagles are aided
by long. sleek greyhounds of IA small
breed the dogs running in and pulling
down the quarry when the eagles have
sufficiently bewildered it.-Wide World

A movement has been started in
Indiana to have rural mail carriers
travel their routes backward every
other month-that is, to have them
begin serving their routes from one
end one month and from the other
end the next, so as to equalize the
time Of delivery of mail. AS it is
now, some patrons always receive
their mail early in the day and
others late.
