Highland tradition gives a quaint ex- planation of the creation of Loch Awe, that noble mirror of the mountains in the magnificent scenery of Argyllshire. The bed of the loch was once, it is said, a fertile valley. with a fairy spring, which had always to be kept covered, bubbling from the mountain side. A careless girl, however, hav- ing drawn water, forgot to recover the well. All through the night the spring flowed, and by the morning Loch Awe had come into being. No one need re- gret the carelessness or that highland lassie. Loch Awe is now one of the most exquisite of beauty spots in Great Britainâ€"a charming sheet of water, studded with pretty islands, while around the shores are many places as- sociated with interesting legends and historic incidents of the highlands.â€" London Answers.

In building a wood fire in an open fireplace shake out a double sheet of newspaper and crush it tightly, leaving the edges loose. that it may ignite easi- ly. The back log should be of the greatest size that the fireplace will hold and may be of green wood, as this is the slowest to burn out. and the draft and fire are strongest in the back. The log should be shoved against the wall. If it is a split log the inside of it should be turned toward the front. Three logs are a good number to start a fire withâ€"the back log. a smaller one in front and the third log on top of these. All of the ashes of the first three or four should be left on the hearth. as they make a fine bed for keeping the embers hot after they have fallen through the andirons.
