There have been numerous chimer
ical schemes advanced from time to time
_by land reformers for the practical
;utilization. of the deer forests and waste
lands of the Scottish highlands, but.
curiously enough, one, never heard oi
any 'p‘ractical plan to turn the water oi
the Highland lochs to practical account
until a scheme of this nature is within
lmeasurable distance of actual accom-
'plishment. Parliamentary powers
granting permission to utilize. the water

.‘of Loch Ericht, in. Perthshire, and con-
vey it to Loch Leven, in Argyllshire, are
to be asked in the coming session, says
the Sketch. The abundance of wa-teI
power in America and Germany for
generating electricity at a cheap rate

’ has, it appears, adversely affected Brit.

ish chemical manufacturers, and the
proposed scheme, by which a. fall of
1,100 feet at the head of Loch Leven will
be obtained, will, it is expected, supply
power capable of generating over 3‘7,-
006 horse power. The scheme has,
moreover, occasioned, so it is asserted,

, a postponement of the project some

large chemical manufacturers had con-
templated of transferring their works
from this country to the United States.
Loch Ericht covers nearly eight square
miles of area, and contains a very large
volume of water. The diversion is to be
eifected by means of tunnels and open
aqueducts, and the power houses will
be situated near the head- of Loch Leven,
which is navigable at high tide by ves-
sels drawing 14 feet. “Then completed
a. new era may dawn for a district at
present sparsely inhabited, as it is pro-
posed to establish a. number of factories

' ' ,on the shores of Loch Leven.

An eminent medical man whose
treatises on human hair have attracted
much notice, among many other strik«
ing statements as to woman’s chief
beauty, remarked that “bristling,”
when used in speaking of the human
hair, is not a. figure. The hair is sub-
ject to and influenced by almost every
passion of the human mind, and emo-
tional hair, of which he has treated es-
pecially, he claims is quite common.
Hair looks, feels and falls diiferently
when a person is in sorrow, joy, sur-

prise or dejection. After a. day or two .

.of deep mental study or violent bodily
exercise a most visible diiference may

;be detected by a practiced observer. ,

The day is fated to come, he maintains,
when this coloring in the hair will be
a valuable aid in identification.

Tenlper as an Influence on Voice.
Temper, says an authority, has imu
mense influence on the tone ofthe sing-
ing voice. An ill-natured or querulous
person will invariably have a catlike
quality in the voice, which is percepti-
le in singing quite as much as in speak-
ins.

Young Amazons of Kurdistan Who

Take to the Road as
Brlgtulds.

 

The Kurdish women are also devoted
to an outdoor life. Quite as enterpris-

ing- and indefatigable as the men in ‘

their race, they are ever ontthe alert,
‘ ready to leap to the saddle. where,

though not graceful riders, they are at
. home and able to keep up with the men
in their adventurous wanderings, says
the New York Tribune.

A recent traveler in Kurdistan tells
of meeting a girl of the Bulbassi tribe
who had. just killed with a spear a Turk
Who insulted her. This young Amazpn
was dresSed- like a.‘ man and served the
chief, Fazullah Efiendi, as his faithful
henchman, following him in all his wan-
derings. The women of this tribe are

all particularly hardy and intrepid..
Frequently they take to the'road by:

r themselves as brig-ands, and luckless
indeed is the traveler or‘trader. who
falls into their hands. Not content
with robbing him, they pinch, scourge
and scratch him. ‘

When a girl is born in Montenegro
the mother says to her: “I do not wish
thee beauty, but courage; heroism
alone gains the love of men.” And
courage they possess in abundance.
While their husbands are away on ex-
cursions the women in the intervals of
caring for the fields and flocks, take to
the road and do a little looting on their
own account.

IN THE BERMUDAS-

There Is a. Plague of Cats and Spar-
rows and Too Many Worth-
less Care.

People arrivingin New York fr-omBer-
muda say that the island is overrun
by cats and sparrows. The nuisance of
the plague has even been discussed in
the colonial legislature at Hamilton.
Visitors from the Uni-ted States seek-
ing the balmy climate of Bermuda. are
complaining especially of the “cat
gangs” which night-1y disturb their
sleep, says the New York Journal.

When the dog tax bill came up before
the legislature, Dr. T. A. Outerbridge,
one of the members of the council, pro-

 

 

posed an amendment. In doing so he
a said:
“I should like to see the bill recast
[ and a heavier tax put upon dogs, be-
cause we have- too many worthless curs
in Bermuda. I should also like to see
a. tax put upon cats. You may laugh,
but if there is any useless animal in
this world it is a cat. Cats may be of
some use in some countries, but they
are of no use here. They do not kill
rats. They d0/destroy our native birds.
“I have not seen a bluebird in six
weeks, and there ought to be plenty
of them here now from America. I
have not seen one this year, and before
ong all our native birds will be exter-
minated—between the cats and the
sparrows.”
