Home Haunts and Health

Much as we Scotchmen love the home country, perhaps the lapse of years, with ocersional runs. over to unique and lovely Japan, or may-be an overland home run through Ialy and Switzerland, or Canada and the Rockies, make some forget the peculiar characteristics of our own scene ery. To all such I recommend, if time will allow, a withdrawal from the city and town, and a plunge into the West Highlands. By keeping clear of the regular tourist routes, and quietly roaming through glens, over lochs, sud across moors, with their ruggednesses, mists and weather, they will not only get strengthened nerves and invigorated bodies, but also a realisation of the peculiar and indescribable charms of beauty and grandeur in Scotch scenery.
