‘6 Now we are off for a more special view of the land o' Burns than we got on the trip to Newcastle. The trip irom Glasgow is made in an hour and you pay 2s, 6d. First you pass Glenitrer limes. a verv fine sight in- devil. Six Railroads run trom Glas- gow to this district and all of them have good scenery. You see Crooks- ton castle where queen Mary made her home for a time. Now you pass the place where Wallace was betray- cd. now the old town ot Paisley with the oldest Abbey in Scotland and come next to Ellerdie where Wallace was born and then to the Brig o' John. ston with a population ot 12000. In thet you may say it is all one town itom Glasgow to here and tnanutaetur- ing everywhere, almost anything you want from a shoe lace to an anchor. Just think ot one factory turning out 10 tons of shoe laces per week t. There is a wonderful change here this last 50 years. here is enormous. the day before our visit there were 1400 registered. The cottage i. a small house, oontaining the bed on which the poet was born, the old dreeeer with its blue plates, the old chair and table and a great many other relies. Next we visit old Alloweg Kirk forever to be remember- ed " t e scene ofthe wiwhee' dame In Tam o'Sltanter. The reusing of and go to Burns’ monument and cottage. You reach the cottage first, where is a register and of course we enter. our names. The, tourist name We leave Renfrewshire here and enter Ayrshire, and it is impossible for me to describe the many small towns we pass through, even these with their iron works, coal pits, etc. Imay say they are utilizing the dross from the pits to make brick with and you would be surprised to see the moun- tains of dross available. I have been telling them the whole country would tall in tune day as it must be Very hollow in some parts. Before reaching Ayr we skirt the sea coast. We can see Paddy's Mile Stone away out in the sea. Here we are in " AnldAyr, whom ne'er a toon surpasses. For honest men and bonnie losses.” The town and countryside is forever famous owing to its association with the genius of one man. and he a son of the. coil. You, take the electric car MM.

RUSSELL MANTLES and FURS. “I BIB SURE t Art SUCCESSOR TO J. A. HUNTER. A little further and you come to the monument in a beautiful garden of about 4 acres. 1n the corner is a building with statues ot the immortal Tam o' Shanter and Soutar Johnnie as natural as life, Tam just putting his glass into his mouth, while the laugh- ing Soutar has his half mutchkim on his knee. It is a fine piece of sculpture. In the garden is a little dismal place grown up with bushes and in the midst is auld "Clootie"and his wife all cut in stone. I can assure you they are anything bat pleasant to look at. Farther on you see sculpture as large as life representing 'h Poosie ,, Nancy, of Mauchline, who kept the public house where Barns used to go when he composed "The Jolly Beg- gars." Then you see the “Auld Brig ,, and the new one crossing the Doon. The old brig dates back to the year 1200, it is not used except for travellers. You may gather that this is a delightful spot, and we leave it to go down to the old town with its fine sand beach and steamers from all guts. and there seems to be great usiness done in shipping, etc. There is a beautiful coast here, about 2 miles long all built up with stone.
