Drambuie
DRAMBUIL
Prince Charlie's Liqueur
The origin of "DRAMBUIE' and the basis of its production give it a character distinct from other Liqueurs.
Brought to Scotland by a follower of Prince Charlie in 1745, the recipe was given to a MacKinnon of Skye, and the secret has ever since remained in one family. The MacKinnon of that day employed the materials which were available, and in place of Brandy a fine. old Whisky was used. This, along with heather honey and herbal ingrediente, of recognised value as aids to digestion produced & Liqueur which soon gained the post of honour on the tables of Highland Aristocracy, and is now known world-wide.

Bridge of Allan Hotel Sold.
The Royal Hotel, Bridge of Allan, has been sold, although the name of the purchaser has not been disclosed. On the outbreak of war the hotel, which was the largest in Stirlingshire, was taken over by the military and became the head-2 quarters of General Egerton, Com- imanding the 32nd Lowland Divi- sion. Later it was converted into a barracks for the necommodation of some 200 men, but since the war it has beers undocupied.
a Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh have had a good ran for their propaganda, but opposing opinion is much more powerful and widespread than the Home Rules subject, and a movement is now on foot to secure that this opposition, particularly in West of Scotland, shall find adequate expression. It is a non-party opposition, and its

Dr. Milligan's Successor. The Chair of Divinity and Biblical Criticism in the Univer- sity of Glasgow, to which Dr. George R. C. Macgregor has been Dr. appointed in succession to George Milligan, is the most re- cantly founded professorship in the Faculty of Theology, Dr. Mac- gregor being the fourth holder of the Chair. Like Dr. Milligan he has family connections with Aber- dean, and like Dr. Milligan he brings to the Chair a reputation for exact and patient scholarship.

New Industry for Glasgow.
Mr. William Watson, of the Scottish Development Council, an: nounced at Dunfermline on Octo ber 20 that one of the largest American manufacturers, repre senting a specialised textile proj duct, had decided to locate a new industry in Glasgow. "In doing so," Mr. Watson said, they have merged the interests for this new specialised production in this coun; try, the Continent, and many of the-British Empire Marketa, with que of the oldest fabric manužno- turers in Glasgow. This Scottish and American interest, which will bo known as Darlington-Fabrics (Great Britain), Limited; will bo an event of outstanding import- ance to the textile industry of Britain na a whole, and will "lead" to-a-manufacture of an extensive. range of products of a very high grade and of a quality not so far produced in this country.
