i Land Copyright, 1913, by The Asso One Sunday morning in 1543 a pretty, helpless little girl baby less than a year old was seated on a throne in the spacious chapel of Stirling Cas- tle in Scotland, surrounded by fierce, mailed men. A cardinal held a| crown over her head; the tiny fingers were clasped for a moment about a. 8scepter; a huge, unwieldly'sword was buckled round the little waist; and a noble spoke the words that created Mary Stuart queen of Scotland. Fort- ty-four years later the stroke of a sword in the headsman’s hands ended the life of this queen—one of the ' wmost: beautiful and tragic figures in all history. 3 Besides the coronation of Mary ueen of Scots, Stirling Castle has seen many historic events.. This old stronghold is situated on the Firth of Forth, some thirty-five miles above Edinburgh. It stands on a hill high above the town of Stirling. No one knows exactly how long ago it was built; but it is very, very old. Away back in the time of the Ro- man invaders of Britain had a station in the town of Stirling. Alexander 1L, king of Scotland, gave the town| its first chartér jn 1226, and he made Stirling Castle his = royal residence. During the wars of Scottish Independ- ence the castle was besieged many times. Edward I. of England cap- tured it in 1304. For ten years after that'it was held by the English; but Robert Bruce besieged it fiercely in 1314, Edward II., who was king of England at that time, was a weak) ruler, and he knew that if the Scots captured Stirling Castle they would probably win their freedom. So he gathered an army and marched north. “Learn One Thing Every Day” No. 5. STIRLING CASTLE Song ciated Newspaper School, Inc. But he was so badly beaten by Bruce at the battle of Bannockburn that the Scots won their independence, and Bruce became their king. On the es- planade before Stirling Castle stands a statute of this great' man. ¥ The tragic story of the execution of Mary Stuart, who was crowned = at Stirling, is one of the most pathetic episodes in history. Condemned on an unjust charge, she was sentenced to death by Elizabeth, queen of Eng- land. The final scene in the life of the beautiful queen of Scotland took place in Fotheringay Castle in Eng- land. As Mary approached the block, ’he melancholy sweetness of her beau- ty touched every heart. Even her executioners knelt and begged her to forgive them for the sad duty that they were ‘forced to perform. “I fergive you with all my heart,” sadly replied Mary. She knelt down and laid her head upon the block amid a tense silence broken only by an occasional sob, A moment later the chief executioner ]lgeld up her head, exclaiming, “So perish all the enemies of Queen Eliza- beth.” Every day a different human inter- est story will appear in the Pioneer.

Due to a general neu- | rasthenic or hysterical nervous condt- tion, this, cough, owing to its particu- | lar “characteristics, is ‘termed ‘“the nervous cough.” SR The ‘Hervous cough often ‘cannot be distinguished in any ‘way from' the cough due to an affection of the res- piratory . passages. . It sometimes oc- curs, in. the form of periodical, pro-: longed and very painful fits of cough- ing sometimes as & continual short,” dry ‘cough. "' Its ‘most ‘character- Istic symptom is that it ceases during sleep and begins again on waking. The patients, while often a source of anxiety to those around them, are generally otherwise in - very- good: health, T Another pezuliarity of this cough is the absence of any secretion, for even after very prolonged fits of coughing there is rarely anything noticeable except a little saliva. - Patients may sometimes succeed in checking the cough, but not for long, and as a rule in such cases the next fit of coughing is all the more severe. The nervous cough is particularly frequent between ihe ages of twelve and seventeen. It then often as- sumes the character of a barking cough. It is unattended by any seri- ous-_danger, and does not induce any emphysema. Change of climate ap- pears to have most effect upon fit. SPECULATIVE FORM OF ART Vogue of the Cubist Has.

The pot of mustard—well, it §s in the composi- tion, but it didn’t deserve to get into the headline with the woman. One of the visitors had surreptitiously looked in the catalogue for the title. He bet and won on lis correct guess. “But the pot of mustard?” objected his companions, entrarced by the face's fine frenzy. “Easy enough,” was the answer. “It’s inside the lady.” —i AT What Novel Readers Like. That old question whether the poor prefer to read stories about them- selves rather thap about the rich has been revived in England and discuss- ed by serial writers. Some believe that most readers, whether poor or rich, prefer novels dealing with a class different from their own, and some maintain that. the majority of readers are more interested in their own class. Nobody knows. But some- thing undoubtedly depends upon the novelist himself. Dickens had no dif- ficulty in interesting everybody in the poor. Thackeray made the well-| to-do and the rich interesting. So does Mrs. Wharton.. And innumerable others. : On the other hand, Jack London, Kauffman, James Oppenheim and pos-] “sibly two or three others have sketch- ed wondertul pictures of lowly and obscure lives. The “great American novel,” which may have been written, deal neither with the rich nor with the poor exclusively, nor with the mid- dle class, but with all sorts and con- ditions of men. It will be a novel of democracy—neither aristocratic nor proletarian. . —_— How the Koreans Talk. P A Korean convert committed to memory the Gospel of Matthew. When he was asked how he did it he Yeplied: “I had great difficulty in haking the text stick, but one day I decided that as I read it and tried t¢’ commit 1t by memory 1 should prac- tice' it Verse by verse upon my neigh- bors;. and I found that as I practiced it-soméhow it stuck.” 2 ‘When' & Korean wishes to know whether he' should take his medicine before or after mieals he says, “Shall I put this medicine under mj rice .or on'top of it?” ' A Korean Sabbath school secretary i’ his' report instead of giving the average attendance gave the average absences.
