Lord Lovat's speach at the ban quet to the Lovat Scouts, hlch we report elsewhere, disclosed the fact that the Highlanders', talent for cattle lifting, which had free play during several centuries ot border warfare before Chatham Invented - Highland regiments, is still strong In their de scendants. "But .now," aald Lovat, "instead of going to the Lowlands lor their cattle, they went to South Africa for them, and he had heard that a gentleman in South Africa had said the Highlander were the best cattle thieves he had ever met' This seems to be the point which ha most stirred the Imagination of Lord Lovat in the "admirable services," as the king well called them in his telegram to the gathering of the Highland regiments.

The most important feature of the recent commercial history of St John Is it claim to the title of being the "winter port of Canada." It ambition to secure Ibis name is not ot recent origin. It has been boplns and plan ning for It for bait a century. Home forty years ago, or nearly ten years before the British provlucc were united to form Ibo present dominion, and before ell her of the great mil roads, tbo Intercolonial or tbe Caua dlnn Pacific, bad been constructed to .bring the widely separated province Into communication, with each other, the prediction was mado concerning the future ot the city: "Looking at Its position wltb regard to Lower Canada, St. John must yet become the winter port ot the couuty.' If Its people will work for It, in a few years It will be certain to rise lo a position where If will be Euowu as tbo Liverpool of America.". Tho first prediction of this prophet was' a long time In coming true, but St. John did finally become a winter port. There 1 no way of telling whether it will ever be "the Liverpool of America," or, If It is really going lo put tbe other Atlantic ports out of business, just bow many more years they will be permitted to flourish. It Is probably a question tbat '.be present generation will not bave to bother itself about. . i.-..';" '-I--: .'For a great many years St, John's claim to importance was not taken very seriously by any oue but ber own "Hlrens. hut he vera certain that lOCllCTisSw utu us iu ctvuiuuu; make it T8!aa, fr',; T"o con reflection of .heVq'" took place. Then tlu Intercolonfa'1,oa,, built. AfVr, that came tKlvon8,rac- tlon Of tiki invnt trnnaenntlniMOl en terprise, tii Canadian Pacific Hal and.lt serVted St. John as Its Atlantic terminus.! Then tbe prophet said, o," and began to hustl?. The problem how to get Canadian trade through Canadian channels bad at last been solved. There was no longer any necessity for sending the business In a round-about way when tbe Ice bad the St Lawrence Blrer blocked so the ships could not get up to Quebec and Montreal for their cargoes. The harbor of St John has never been froien within the recollection of the oldest Inhabitant, say tbe people of that city, which Is not true of any other harbor south ot Hattcra. When tbe season of navigation closes on the St. Lawrence the freight Is hauled on to St John before It Is taken oft tbe cars. St. Louis Globe-Democrat An Darkest Africa The recent work by Sir Harry Johnston en tbe Uganda protectorate," said an African traveler a short time ago, "has served to show tbo British people thllt this- country is one ot the most Interesting as well as one of the most Taluoblo of British possessions. "The total area Is 140,000 square miles, and In this vast territory may be found every aspect ot negroid civiliza tion. But it scenery is even more varied. .. How many people, for in stance, would dream thnt there on the very equator Is to be found a regular Alpine range? Yet that is the fact, and In thia range la to be found tbo great Monnt Bnwenzorl, rising probably 20, 000 feet in tbe air, its summit always enveloped In clouds, and covered wltb snow and lee.'

Tho Baganda natives described as 'the Japanese of Central Africa,' are tall and muscular, standing over six feet in height They are conrteous and honest, their chief vice being drunkenness. They make excellent soldiers. "On the western slope of ; Mount Elgon are to bo found the Masaba, de graded and Slmlanllke negi-oes, who are wilder even than tho Congo dwarfs. They are hostile and probably repre sent the most aboriginal race of ne groes in Africa. ; "Cannibalism Is practically unknown among the different races, although some tribes devour the raw flesh of animals immediately after killing. Tbe chiefs are worshiped as spirits, and generally are burled in. tbe huts In which they lived. In some cases, bow ever, tbe corpses are exposed and are devoured by hyenas."

"I wish to give my testimony to the efficiency of the Cuticura Reme dies in what seems to me two some what remarkable eases. I had a number of skin tumours small ones on my arms which had never given me serious trouble but about two years ago one came on my throat. At first it waa only about as large as a pinhead, but, as it waa In a position where my collar, If not luat right, would irritate It, it soon beeame very sensitive and began to grow rapidly. Last spring It was . as large, if not larger, than a bean. A little unusual Irritation ot my oollar started it to swelling, and in : a day or two II waa aa large aa halt an orange. I waa very much i alarmed, and was at a loss to de termine whether ft was a carbuncle or a malignant tumor. "My friends tried to persuade me to consult my physician ; but dread ing that he would insist on, using the knife, I would not consent to go. Instead I got a small bottle ot Cuticnra Resolvent and a box of Cu ticura Ointment. I took the former according to directions, and spread a thick layer of the Ointment on a linen cloth and . placed it on the awelllng. On renewing it I would bathe my neck in very warm water and Cuticura Soap. In a few days the Cuticura Ointment tiad drawn the swelling to a hettd when it broke. Every morning it was opened with a large sterilized needle, squeezed and bathed, and fresh Ointment -put on. Pus and blood, and a yellow, cheesy, tumorous matter came out.
