"He's changed, the body, some wy or ither, and there's a kind o' warmth aboot him ye canna get ower." Next day I turned into Mrs. Macfadyen's cottage for a cup of tea and the smack of that wise woman's conversation, but was not able to pass the inner door for the sight which met my eyes. Lachlan was sitting on a chair in the middle of the kitchen with Elsie, Mrs.
"A' see they've been telling ye what happened," and confusion covered Mrs. Macfadyen's ingenuous countenance.

An odour of peppermint floated out at the door, and Elsie was explaining to Lachlan, for his guidance at the shop, that the round drops were a better bargain than the black and white rock.
"If we're tae dee, we're tae dee; an' if we're tae live, we're tae live," concluded Elspeth, with sound Calvinistic logic; "but a' 'll say this for the doctor, that, whether yir tae live or dee, he can aye keep up a sharp meisture on the skin. "But he's no verra ceevil gin ye bring him when there's naethin' wrang," and Mrs. Macfadyen's face reflected another of Mr.
