Thla waa piece of tartan cloth, two yard* broad Jiod four long, which waa drawn around the waist In nicely adjusted folds and tightly buckled with a belt The lower part came down to the knees in much the same manner the modern kUt, while the upper part waa drawn up and adjusted to the left tfkoulder, so that the riglit arm might be perfectly free. Thla upper part was the plaid, which waa used us u covering for the shoulders and body lu wet jeeather. and when the use of both •1ms was required it waa fastened across the breast with a brooch, often curiously enriched. A brooch waa also used to fasten the plaid on the left •boulder. To attire himself In the belt ed plaid required on the part of the highlander no small amount of dexter! t f . The usual way wua to lay It on the floor and after carefully arranging the folds to lie down upou It awl then buckle It on. The lower end waa fas tened at the right hip. The utility of such a drees In the hlgtilunds is ob vious. for the pluld rendered the man Indifferent to storms and prepured to pass a night In the open air hi the most Inclement weather, while the loose Undergarment enabled him to wade rivers or ascend mountains with equal ease. It was thus peculiarly adupted to the warrior, the hunter and the shepherd.—Isrndou Mall. P R A IR IE D OG S. Choked tp h R iv e r W h ile T r a v e lin g P ran k O k la h o m a to T e x a s .

The prairie dog migration from the north to the southwest lasted six days during the month of July, 1874.

The cowboys were getting ready to drive tbo famishing stock to u dlstuut stream, but the Bed river became clear of the repelling swimmers after blocking the useful drinking place for atmut a week. It was generally supposed that the dogs halted when they had reached the staked plains of Texas."—Kansas City Times. T h e P in l a E n g l a n d . The date of the first manufacture of pins In England is shrouded in uncer tainty, but It Is authentically recorded that as early as 1404, when money was "tight," extensive cloth workers com pelled' their laborers to accept In pay ment for their work “pins, girdle« and other unprofitable wares Instead of money.” The march of Improvement bad begun and kept on steadily until towanL the middle of the sixteenth century pins begun to win appreciation SO high til at statutes were enacted pro tecting their manufacture, and rigid laws were |>assed prohibiting the Im portation of numerous minor articles.

Notwithstanding this there were hundreds of girls stran ded who exhausted their small sav ings in three or four days and found no work; how to protect them was a problem which is well remembered by those who were managers of the Association at that time*. Desiring to meet these conditions wo make the follow iug suggestions : 1. See to it that you have money enough for an emergency and for your return home. 2. See to it that before leaving home you learn from a reliable source that your destination in Portland is a safe one. 3. See to it that you accept no directions from either men or women on trains, if unknown to you, and that you report to the conductor any advances made.
