the possible exception of Byron, the
most popular writer in English.
When the public seemed to be firing
of his long romances in verse, he
turned to novel writing, and in 1914,
when he was 43, he came into his
career of greatness with "Waverley.'
For IS years novel after novel fol-
lowed in rapid succession, stirring ro-
mances of history or colorful tales of
Scottish life. They were all published
anonymously until the financial dis
aster of 1925 made it seem wise to
reveal the authors name.
Fully dozen of the Waverley
Novels, il not more, might be included
in any list of 100 novels and many
loyal lovers of Scott would even then
think that one or two more might be
added He was. as Stevenson re-
marked, the king of the romantics.
"Waverley." "Ivanhoe" "The Heart
of Midlothian" and "Kenilworth" are
representative of Scott at his best.

ME Heart of Midlothian, b.

T(HE Heart of Midlothian, by
q many called the finest of the
-A- Waverley Novels, was pub
lished anonymously in 1918. 1t takes
it's name from the Tolbooth, or old city
Jail. in Edinburg (pulled down in
1850. the "stony heart" of Midlothian,
which reared it's ancient front in the
very middle of the High street Of the
city.
On the afternoon of September s,
1876, Reuben Butler, aSsiStant-maSter
of the school at Libberton, and licensed
minister of the gospel, found himself
in unexpected trouble. First Of all,
he had become entangled with the
crowd of good citizens Of Edinburg
in the Grassmarket, murmuring at the
pOstponement of the execution of Cap
tain John PorteouS of the City Guard.
They were still in the heat of anger
from the events of the preceding day,
when Porteous had ordered his men
to fire. and had fred himself. upon
the crowd. some of whom were at
tempting TO cut down the body of
Scotch Wilson, the famous smuggler.
Several innocent citizens had been
killed. Now that the chief offender
seemed likely to escape, there was no
knowing what the mob might Go. The
quiet young pedagOgue would gladly
have returned to LibbertOn. Then, to
his CONSERVATION, he learned that Etiie
Deans, the younger and more charming
sister of his sweetheart Jeanie Deans,
was imprisoned il the Tolbooth.
When he had last seen Effie, more
than a year before she had been a
beautiful and blooming girl, the lily
of Saint Leonard's. Many traveller
past her fathers cottage had stopped
his horse on the eve of entering Edn-
burg, to gaze at her as she tripped by
him. with her milk-pail poised on her
head, bearing herself so erect, and
stepping so light and free under her
burden that it seemed rather an orna-
ment than an encumbrance Now the
poor girl, scarce eighteen years of age,
lay in the Tolbooth, charged with child
murder.
The facts were that after working
for time in shop in Edinburg. the
unhappy prisoner had disappeared for
the space of a week, and then made
her appearance before her sister at
Saint Leonard's in a state that had
rendered Jeanie only too certain of
her misfortune. But to all questions
she had remained mute as the grave,
until the officers of justice had come
to apprehend her.
Before Reuben Butler could see her
the Tolbooth was closed; and before
he could escape from the city a crowd
| of rioters compelled him to return with
them to the Jail and administer the
last rites to Porteous. whom they
dragged forth to death.
The leader of the mob young man
disguised in woman's clothes, seized
a moment in the midst of the turmoil
in the Jail to beg Effie to escape. "For
Gods sake-for your own sake-for
my sake-fee, or they'll take your
life" was all that he had time to say
The girl gazed after him for a mo-
ment. and then, family mutttring
Better tyne life, since tint Is guide
fame" she sunk her head upon her
hand, and remained, seemingly, as un-
conscious as a statue of the noise and
tuhihtt which passed around her.
In the morning, on his way to see
Jeanie and her father at Saint Leon

park young man of noble bearing.

Cemeteries are not cheerful places.
