A 8untet In Scotland. It was a sunset of strange, tints that evening, a background of clouds of deep violet tipped with crimson. The sky, of the, very pnlest blue, hnd been turned by the brightness of the sun Into a lake of silver, in which floated small fleecy cloudlets of brilliant rose pink, like Islets floating In a crystal sea. Tbe rajs of tbe sun behind tbe purple clouds threw long shafts of dazzling brightness, which tipped tbe dark background with silver as tbe sun kisses tbe petals of a daisy. Every peak in tbe long range of mountains on the west was rose tipped, but the highest of them all towered clear and cone shaped In tbe distance, glistening in a shimmering mantle of silver and pale blue, as If the sky had wrapped it round is own cerulean color.
