The Scottish Highlands THE Highlands of Scotland have been rapidly rising J- in importance during recent years, as affording during the summer and autumn months the most desirable health resorts to professional and business men, as well as to invalids: the most varied scenery, unique as it is picturesque, to the tourist; and the most attractive pleasure-grounds to the sportsman. When it is considered how comparatively unknown to the general run of summer tourists and visitors are the climatic and scenic attractions of large portions of the Highlands, and how rapidly the means of transit is being developed, and of accommodation multiplied, it is evident that for some years to come this popularity will continue to grow.
