Walter Scott was
born in Edinburgh
on Auff. 15, 1771.
His father was a
lawyer, tho first
of tho Scott lino
to leave tho open
country for the
town.
For a man who
wrote such a pro
digious amount,
Scott was surpris
ingly late In get
ting started. Ho
was 84 years old
when his first
or! Final work ap
peared, "The Lay
oC the Last Min
strel." From that
moment until his
death, on Sept. 21,
1832, he was, with
the possible exception of Byron, the
most popular writer in English.
"When tho public seemed to be tlrjngr
of his long Romances In verse, he
turned to novel writing, and In 1814,
when he was 43, ho camo Into his
career of greatness with "Waverlcy."
For 18 years novel after novel fol
lowed In rapid succession, stirring ro
mances of history or colorful talcs of
Scottish life. They were all published
anonymously until the financial dls
"aster of 1825 made It seem wise to
reveal the author's name
Fully a dozen of the Waverley
Novels, If 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 "Kenllworth" are
representative of Scott at his best.
But "Old Mortality," "Quontln Dur
ward," "The Talisman,", "Guy Manner
Ing." "The Fortunes of Nigel," "The
Antiquary." "St Ronan's Well." "Rob
Roy," and Indeed others have all been
ranked as favorites among the in
numerable admirers of the romances
wrlflen by "the Wizard of .the North."

FRECKLES SJiSSlTSi
TIB Heart of Midlothian, by
many called the finest of the
Waverley Novels, was pub
lished anonymously In 1818. It tnkeJ
Its name from the Tolbooth, or old city
Jnil.In Edlnburg (pulled down In
1815), the "stony heart" of Midlothian,
,whlch reared. Its ancient front In tho
very middle of tho High street of the
city.
On the afternoon of September 8,
1730, Reuben Butler, asslstant-mnster
of the school at Llbberton, and licensed
minister of tho gospel, found himself
In unexpected trouble. First of nil,
he had become entangled with the
crowd of good citizens of Edlnburg
in the Gnissmnrket, 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 fired 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 do. The
quiet young pedagogue would gladly
have returned to Llbberton. Then, to
his consternation, he learned that Effle
Deans, the younger and more charming
Bister of his sweetheart Jeanle Deans,
was imprisoned in the Tolbooth.
When he had last seen Effle, more
I than a year before, she had, been a
beautiful and blooming girl, the Illy
of Saint Leonard's. Many a traveler
past her father'a cottage had stopped
his, horse on the, eve of entering Edln
bdrg, to gaze nt her as she tripped by
him, with her rallk-pall poised on her
head, bearing herself so erect, and
stepping bo light and free under her
burden that It seemed rather an ornn-
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 n time In a shop in Edlnburg, the
unhappy prisoner hnd disappeared for
the space of n week, and then made
her appearance before her sUter nt
Snlnt Leonard's In u Btato that had
rendered Jennie only too certnln of
her misfortune. Hut to all questions
she hnd remained mute ns the grave,
until the ofllcers of-Justice hnd come
to apprehend her.
Before Reuben Butler could see her,
tho Tolbooth was closed; and before
ho could escape from the clty crowd
of rioters compelled him to return with
them to the jail and ndmlulster the
last rites to Porteous, whom they
dragged forth to denth.
The leader of tho mob, a young man
disguised In woman's clothes, seized
n moment In tho midst of the turmoil
in tho Jail to beg Effle to escape. "For
God's sake for your own sake for
my sake flee, or they'll tnko your
life," wfiB all that he had time to say.
The girl gazed after hlra for a mo-
ment, and then, faintly mutteiing,
"Better tyne life, since tint Is gudo
fame," she .sunk her head upon her
hnnd, and remained, seemingly, ns un
conscious as a fatotue, of the noise and
tumult which passed around her.
In the morning, on his way to see
Jeanle and her father at Saint Leon
ard's, Butler encountered In tho King's
park a young man of noble bearing,
but, strangely agitated, who bade hlu
"tell Jennie Dcnns that, when the moon
rises, I shall expect to nect her at
Nlcol Muschat's Cairn, beneath Saint
Anthony's chapel."
After attempting 1n vain to induce
Jennlo to explain tho message, ho re
turned to visit Effle again. In tho Tol
booth, only to be compelled, on his ar
rival there, to trtl the wholo story,
lest he bo convicted of guilt In the
Porteous affair. And then he was sent,
home, under ball not to leave Llbber
ton, nor to communicate with any
member of the family of Efllo Dcnns.
But If his experiences were to him
Incomprehensible they were by no
means so to tho authorities. By piec
ing together his testimony with those
of others, thoy rightly determined that
the stranger In the Klng'B park, the
leader of tho Porteous mob, and the
father of Effle's child were one-nnd
tho same person; nnmely, Geordfo
Robertson, comrade of Wilson the
smuggler, and but Intely escnped from
the very prison In which Effle Deans
was now confined. Accordingly, they
planned to capture htm that night nt
Muschat's Cairn. But before they
could reach that place, Robertson hnd
time to beg Jennie to save her sister
at the trial by testifying that Effle had
disclosed to her her condition Then
he escaped. ,
Merely that slight falsehood would
Inure removed the case of Effle Deniis
from under tho letter of the cruel
Scotch statute. But Jeanle, steadfast
ly, devoutly truthful, was utterly un
able to placato her conscience In bear
ing false witness. Nor could the dis
appointment of Effle herse'f, whom sho
wns at last permitted to visit In tho
strong-room of tho prison alter her
"resolution. "He wanted that I suld
be mnnsworn," she said. "I told him
that-I dau.na swear to an untruth."
At the trial, when Jeanle was
brought In to testify, Effle, In human
weakness, cried, "O Jennie, Jeanle,
save me.1" But when the solemn oath,
'the truth to tell, nnd no truth to
conceal, as far n& she knew or was
asked," was administered "In the nnnoo
of God, and n? the witness should nn
swer to God nt the grent day of Judg
ment," Jeanle, educated In deep rever
ence for the name of the deity, was
elevated nbovo all considerations save
those- which sho could, with a clear
conscience, cnll Him to witness. And
rwhen the advocate enme nt length to
the point of asking her. "what your
sister said ailed her when you In
quired?" Jennie could only answer,
"nothing." When the sentence wns
pronounced by the doomsman, Effle's
own eyes were the only dry oneq In
tho court. "God forgive ye, my lords,"
she said, "and dlnnn be angry wl" me
for wlshln It wo a' need forgiveness."
The next morning found Jennie
Deans traveling nlone anil afoot on
the long road to Lqndon "to see tho
Queen's face that gives grace," and
beg for her sister's pardon. Her tar
tan screen served nil the purposes of
a riding habit, and of an umbrella; a
smnll bundle contained such clmnges
of linen as were absolutely necessary.
She had a few guineas, and n letter
from Reuben Butler to tWc Duke of
Argyle, whose grandfather had been
under obligations of the deepest to
the famous Bible Butler, grandfather
of the poor assistant-schoolmaster, now
sick at Llbberton.
She passed luckily, on tho whole,
through so weary and dangerous a
Journey, nnd at length, through tho
Intercession of tho duke, secured tho
pardon which sho sought.
Before she renche'd Scotland again,
Effle had eloped with her lover, 'who
was In reality George Staunton, son
of an English nobleman. 'The sisters,
who hnd last metwhen Effle. was sit
ting on the bench of the condemned,
did not meet again for many years,
though Lady Staunton wrote some
times to Jeanle now Mrs. Butler,
wife of Mr, Reuben Butler, pastor of
Knocktnrlltle.
Finally, by chance, Sir George
learned thnt Meg Murdockson, who had
attended Efflo In her Illness, had not
murdered the child, ns they had al
ways supposed. Ho traced the boy to
a certain troop of vngnbonds, of which
Black Donald was the chief. In an
nffray with Black Donald's men, Sir
George was shot by a young lad called
"the Whistler," who proved to be tho
losi Hon. The ,lnd disappeared, and
escaped to America. Lady Staunton,
overcome by tho tragedy, after vnln
efforts to drown her grief In society,
retired to a convent In France. Al
though she took no vows, she remnlned
there until her death. But her In
fluence nt court accomplished much
for the children of her sister Jeanle,
who lived happily on In the good par
ish with which the bounty of the
Duke of Argylo Jrad provided her husband.
The Heart of Midlothian Is notable
for having rather fewer Important
characters, n smnllcr vnrlety of Inci
dent, nnd less description of. scenery
than most of Scott's novels. Ono of
tho most remarkable scenes In all fic
tion Is the meeting of tho two sisters
In prison under tho eye of the Jailer
Ratcllffe. Tho interview of Jennie
with Queen Cnrollno Is also most note,
worthy. There Is much humor nt the
expense of the Cnmcronlan wing of tho
Presbyterian faith In Scotlnnd. In this
work also appears the strange charac
ter of Madge Wlldflre, daughter of tho
old crone, Meg Murdockson. Into her
mouth is put tho famous song, "Proud
Maislo is in tho wood."
QUAINT OLD ENGLISH CUSTOM
Dwellers In Cornlth Village Maintain
Their Right to Look on Statue
With Reverence.
In Launceston, n siuall town In Corn
wall, one Image nnd ono old custom
have "remained In spite of the Puri
tans, says a contributor to London
Country Life, who relntes n curious
survival of the old days when Oliver
Cromwell nnd his Image-smashing sol
diers ruled England. Perhaps It was
because the Cornish did not take kind
ly to the Puritan spirit, continues the
writer, but the Magdalen of Lnunccsy
ton remains nnd tho people of Lnuncos
ton still believe In her power for good
and evil. The llgure, which rests In
a canopied niche between tho center
of the three windows nt the cast end
of the parish church, Is n little less
than life-size, and represents tho Mag
dnlcn as lying face down In an nttl
tudo of grief. By her side is what Is
described as a skull or tho box of
ointment.
What Is still more Interesting Is the
forge number of stones, pebbles, and
pieces of slato always to bo seen scat
tered and untidy on the back of tho
figure or upon the Bill of the window
above. They represent the triumph of
custom or superstition. The people be
lieve thnt If you cast a stone up nl the
figure nnd It remains upon It y6u will
get your reward. If you treat the stat
ue with disrespect you will suffer.
Tho stones on the window sill repre
sent failure; those on the figure, suc
cess. The people of Launceston are
reluctant to talk about this belief of
theirs. If j on ask, they will half shyly
tell you that flic children believe It,
nnd thnt they remember that when
they were children they threw n stone
up when they wanted n new pnlr of
boots or n treat of me kind.
"And did you get it?" you nsk,
You will generally be told, "Yes."
If you watch, you will see that tho
children still believe It. and that some
of the "children" hae long since pass
ed school nge. Tho stones aro always
there, always Increasing. Of the many
stories I heard of the Magdalen of
Launceston ono was of how the nar
rator, when n boy, many years ago,
camo running home from school nnd,
passing the statue, jumped nt It to hit
Its face. He told me that It might
have been that or it might not, but
before he was out of the churchyard
he slipped, sprained his cnkle nnd was
In bed for many days. No ono seems

The question of transmitting power

It Is suggested further that tho gas

could he generated on modern lines In
large works on the coal fields. Tho
