Quite an exciting instance of presence of mind was witnessed by several of the residents of Aberdeen on Thanksgiving Day. John fiobertson was the hero of the occasion. While driving up the hill to the east of Aberdeen. John and a companion ‘were met by Norman McIntyre in his auto. The horse became frightened. when Jack, by a superb feat of horsemanship wheeled the horse in the middle of the hill, probably saving the lives of himself and companion.

Moréau was in England he was once the victim of a rather droll misunderstanding. He was pres- ent at a concert where a piece was sun by the choirrwith the refrain: “ o-morrow, to-morrow.” Having a vet?! imperfect knowledge of English, he ancied it to be a can- tata given in his honor and thought he distinguished the words: "To Moreau, to Moreau.” Each time the refrain was repeated he rose to his feet and gracefully bow- ed,on all sides, to the great "astonish- ment of the audience, who did not know what to make of it. Part of Rousseau’s stay in England was§pent at Chiswick, where he lodg- ed over a small grocer’s shep. “The philosopher sits in the shop,” writes a contemporary, “and learns English words, which brings many customers! to the place.” The grocer must have been sorry to 4 l e so alluring a lodger, but David lime, who brought Rousseau to Eng- land, was heartily glad when be r.- turned to France. After his departure he described Rousseau as “a composi. tion of whim, affectation, wickedness, vanity and inquietude, with a very small, if any, ingredient of madness.” â€"â€"London Chronicle. l The menu of a meal given lately by the London Vegetarian Association in- eluded walnut cutlets with brown sauce, cauliflower and new potatoes, asparagus on toast, spaghetti on toast, tomato farcie and young carrots.

The title “Cave of the Golden Calf” bestowed on London’s first Cabaret Theatre Club, which has just been opened, recalls other curiously-named clubs which have flourished in this country at different times. For in- stance, there was the “Calves’ Head Club,” founded in “ridicule of the memory of Charles 1.,” whose meet- ings for obvious reasons were rather suspiciously regarded after the Restor. ation. “The Everlasting” was a purely social club, with a membership of 100 souls. Social intercourse was always obtainable within its walls, for the rules arranged for the presence of members day and night throughout the year. “The'Little Club” of Ldndon was a distinctly original institution. It was intended for those not five feet high. Invitations to be present at the in- augural meeting did not meet with a very hearty response. The scheme had to be modified owing to the occasional awkward situations created through the use of ordinary sized furniture; as when a member, imaging the presi- dent to be absent, gave vent to some contemptuous criticisms of him, only to find that his face had been tem- porarily eclipsed by a flash of wine which stood before him on the table. After thisthe premises were furnished Filling a wooden eg -cup with sand from the Isle of Egg, he stabbed the sand with a wooden ninepin abstract- ed, he said, from the nursery at home. and produced a high musical note. The sand behaved better in the eg - cup than in anything else. In a car - board box its musical note remained dumb, as it did in a flower-pot and in the half of a rubber ball. In half a wooden Easter egg the sand from the Isle of Egg, as the lecturer re- marked, “positively revelled” in its surroundings, and emitted a sharp, joyous squeaking. porarily eclipsed by a flash of wine which stood before him on the table. After this the premises were furnished in proportion to the size of the club members, the door was made high enough to admit a man of five feet, and no more, and to “brush your fore- tOp" on entering was to be disqualified for membership. Musical sands have been known for 1.000 years, and it is believed that there is a reference to them in one of the tales of the “Arabian Nights.” But nature, who conducts eXperiments on quite a different scale from those at the Royal Societies Club, produces much finer results. There is the Moun- tain oi the Bell on the shores of the Red Sea, which makes extraordinary sounds and boomings when the winds set the countless millions of particles ' ‘-vâ€"vv rubbing against each other and vibrat- ins. The lecturer 'shmwd how the rocks of which the earth is composed are decomposed by the action of natural causes, chiefly the weather; how clifls become boulders; how buullers be- come pebbles, and pebbles in turn be- come sand. In the course of time it occurs that nature, that most versa- tile old lady, produces a kind of and which has music in its soul, a sand composed of quartz. rounded and high- ly polished, of a uniform size, and very clean. A, Scientist Declares That Scotland Has the Best Singing Sands. A lecture given recently at the Royal Societies Club by Mr. Carus- Wilson was devoted to a consideration of the extraordinary sands- known as “musival” Hr “singing" sands.

They do not cause griping or any disagreeable effect or inconvenience. f! a habit, but instead they act to overcome the cause of habit aw- quired through the use of ordin- ary laxatives, cathartics and harsh physics and permanently removes the cause of constipation or irreg- ular bowel action.
