Macon, in AlmoBt for the first time since wo j were a boy-today October 1SJ05 we have been reading her? ami there in "Tho Lady of the Lake." .Many of our readers will tenderly remember Kllen Douglas, as described by Sir Walter Scott, in this poem. Her father and her lover in disgrace polit ically and in prison, she w^ka thc street? of jrroud Edinburgh, a forlorn, trembling, helpless stranger. Suddenly she mocts a noblo-iook ing stranger, in knihgtly apparel, wearing a black, gold-embroidered bonnet, with a white plume waving from \h. He hears her story and tolls lid' ho bad known her and her father in their days of freedom and happiness, in their highland home. He gives her sympathy and counsel and promise.!* to go with her to thc King of Scotland, with whom ho will use his influence to obtain tho rcloaso of her father and her lover. They walk together along the streets of Scotland's historio capital, and come to Holyrood Palace-home of ancient Scottish Kings. Poor Ellen shrinks and trembles at tho thought of ap proaching the King. She is a modest mountain maid, not uued to crowns and courts 9nd heralds. Her foot is more ab home treading the purplo heather on tho mountain side than the burnished floors of a royal palace. 4tIIow shall I know tho King? I have never seen him!" she erica in much mental perturbation and dis tress. "All will be uncovered, except ihe King; ho alone will wear his bonnet," was the answer of her knightly guide. The palace doors are strangely and quickly thrown open, RS the approach, and they enter. And poor Ellen Douglas, raising her eyes timidly, locks on ?mon of princely part, OB honorable counsellors, on warriors and ssgeB. Stars and ooronets, and be gemmed ribbons meei her gaze. There is not one, however, that is covered; no ono wears his bonnet. Where is tho King? Who is tho King? She looks up suddenly and imploringly to her guide. Ho alone wears hat and plume. Ah, the grateful truth flaohCB upon her! Her guide is the King I Who then is the King? He is a man-be who refused to be called the ion of Pharaoh's daughter and esteemed the reproach of Ghrist greater riohes tban the treasure? of Egypt-who gave up his place of ease ?nd honor and luxury in the house hold of a great King, to identify him self with serfs and bondsmen of his own race. Gan you find an instance of sublime self-renuuoiatioo to excel this? He infused hope into the hearts of men who were broken in spirit and humiliated by a bondage of four hundred years. Surely a For Thin Bajeles Fat is of great account to a baby ; that is why babies are fat. If your baby is scrawny, Scott's Emulsion is what he wants. The healthy baby stores as fat what it does not need immediately 'for bone and muscle. Fat babies are happy ; they do not cry ; they are rich ; their fat is laid np for time of need. They are kaPPy because they are comfortable. The fat sur rounds their little nerves and cushions them. When they are scrawny those nerves are hurt at every ungentle touch. They delight in Scott's Emul sion. It is as sweet as wholesome to them. Send for free sample. ' * ? '., ,'T' V . ; ?'

"I was standing in the barroom at a resort at Three Forks," said a travel ing man, according to the Anaconda. Standard, "waiting for the proprietor to arrive, iu the hope of placing a small order. While I was waiting two cowboys, .wrapped in fur coats, their own dignity and a reputation as tho top riders in tho country which stretches away toward the head of Willow Creek, came into the saloon, and, marching up to the bar demand ed a cocktail.

"The boys both tasted the beverage and it did not taste good. Each had unlimbered a big gun, and, playfully toying with the weapons, they sug gested that the bartender drink his own mixture. It required some per suasion, but finally ta avoid trouble, he swallowed the contents of both glaoues. 'Now, mako your will, you would-be poisoner!' shouted the punch ers, and solemnly they put their guns back where they belonged, treated the house to cigars and faded away into the distance, their horses hitting only the high spots as th.?y disappeared up the valley. "And I tell you the impromptu bartender had good reason to make hie will. For three or four hours he wes (he siokest man I ever saw, and it took the service of a doctor, who worked over him for an hour or two, to bring him baok to life again." - m ? m Making Farming Pay. ? On Friday of last week eight "white hiokory" wagons, drawn by sixteen superb mules, the property of Simon Brown's Sons, were driven on the scales at the cotton platform and weighed; then they went to the Oaks, the farm of Col, Alfred Aldrich? and loaded with 14,000 pounds of splendid Aldiioh prolific white eora on the eob, and, returning to the scales, weighed again and drove off in prooesaion to Blackville, ten miles distant. This oom was grown OD a 40-aere field of com and cotton, from whioh 15,000 pounds of oom were sold to the Hill Top stables, 7*000 pounds to the E?St erling, Patterson Company, and 5,000 pounds to other parties, making a total of 40,000 pounds, sold at 70o a bushel, and, at the same time,, oom enough to ruo the farm for thu com ing year has been reserved. The same field of forty sores has produced 20,000 pounds of seed cot ton, whioh is liable to bring 12o a pouod, as none of it, we. leam, has yet been sold.

It ia commonly assumed that soap is used in shaving for thc purpose of sof tening the hairs. This, however, lt seems, is a mistake. It is used, on the contrary, to render them bard, dry, st?"jd brittle, in which condition ??iey /est yield to the blade. Ilalr be ing .- -milly olly, the razor would either ;.?lp over the limp bair without cuttln ; it, or entering about half way bena the hair back and slice it length wise,? all the while straining lt most painfully at the root, and ns a razor would thus slice and pull probably a number of hairs at once the pain pro duced would be intense. Most shav ing soap contains a free alkali, either potash or soda, which combines with and so removes the oil of the hair, leaving only the hard fiber, dry and stiff, as may be seen by inking a solu tion of carbonato of soda and dipping a singlo hair Into it. Thc Deep Sea Lend, In order to lind a ship's position ?when approaching the laud in a fog soundings aro taken with the "deep sea lead." This lead weighs twenty-eight pounds and is attached to a line which is marked off lu fathoms by bunting of various colors, pieces of leather and knots. Bored In tho base of the lead is a bole about two Inches deep, and this is filled with tallow, so that the gravel or shells nt the*ocean bottom will adhere to it, and the nature of the bed may be thus ascertained. When tho lead is thrown overbonrd the wa ter's depth is noted on tho line, and this and the adherence to the tallow when compared with the description given on the chart will give the ship's position with tolerable accuracy. Thc FamoiM Mameluken. The mamelukes were a body of sol dier.* who ruled Egypt for several hun dred years. Their name is derived from au Arab word which means slave, and they were originally captives from Caucasian countries. In the middle of the thirteenth century they were intro duced into Egypt as the sultan's body guard, but upon the accession of Turan Shah, whom they hated, {hey over threw him and elected one of them selves in bis place. For nearly 800 years they held the power thus usurp ed, and even -when compelled to resign lt they had much Lu^uence in- Egypt. In 1811 nearly all the mamelukes were massacred by Mohammed Ali, and those who then escaped to Mobla were destroyed in 1820. - . ? fi . ? The Pillara of liv- alco.

The mountains are now called the Rock of Gibraltar and Jebel Zatant, The word Gibraltar, which Ia at pres- i ent also applied to the strait, was. originally "Jebel Tarie," or "Mountain of Tarlo," Tarlo being the name of the leader of the first Mohammedan band which crossed nt tbet point over into Spain in the year A.

Douglas Jerrold, tho celebrated wit, said: "There are three things that no man but a fool lends, or, having lent, is not in the most helpless state of mental crassitude If. ho ever hopes to get back again. These three things aro books, money and umbrellas. I believe a certain fiction of the law assumes a remedy against the borrower, but I know o? no case in which any man, be ing 8ufllclently dastard to gibbet bis reputation as plaintiff lu such a suit, ever fairly succeeded against, the whole some prejudices of society. Umbrellas muy be 'hedged about* by cobweb stat ute]. I will not swear that lt Is not so. There may be laws that make such things property, but I am sure that the hissing contempt, the loud mouthed in dignation, of all civilized society would Bib J in te and roar at tl ie bloodless pol troon who should engage law on bis side to obtain for him the restitution of a lent umbrella." Tho Painter Won. Often have painters and sculptors discussed the relative merits of paint ing and sculpture. A story ls told of an artist who resented the disparaging comparisons made by a sculptor and laid a wager that be could within a given time paint a picture which should display the human figure as complete ly as any sculptor could. The wager was accepted, and upon the appointed day a painting was produc ed which fulfilled all the conditions. It represented a warrior, his back to tho spectator, bending over a sheet of wa ter, in the limpid surface of which were reflected his entire face und form. To the right a suit of polished armor bung and threw back a full length profile image, while a mirror performed a like office for the left side.
