to stretch forth his hand towards the enchanted cup, the thought of
that horrible sketch appalled him and quenched the desire. He now gave
his countenance to every teetotal platform; and if that countenance had
lost the florid complexion which at one time had been so much admired,
yet it still beamed with wisdom. He seldom spoke, but his silence was
far more expressive than his speech would have been. His usual luck
also attended him. He was now pointed out as a fine specimen of a
self-sacrificing Christian, one who had given up all the delights of
convivial society, of which he was a great favourite, in order to set
an example to his weaker brethren.

SKETCH-BOOK OF THE NORTH.
By GEORGE EYRE-TODD.
Illustrated by A.S. Boyd, A. Monro, S. Reid, and Harrington Mann.
"A handsome and beautifully illustrated book, worthily preserving Mr
Todd's graceful and pleasant prose from oblivion."--_Scotsman._

"We cannot imagine a more acceptable gift to an exiled Scot or an
artistically inclined Sassenach."--_North British Daily Mail._
"It would not be too much to say that an Englishman, desiring an
intimate knowledge of Scotland and its people, would gain it more
readily by reading Mr Eyre-Todd's book than he would by becoming a
student of the Kailyard Academy."--_Academy._
"An exceptionally delightful book."--_New Saturday._
"The book is one that is likely to find its way into every patriotic
and cultured home in Scotland."--_Scottish Society._
