Now, in view Of this great scarcity of
boys, what are we to do? What shall we
do for substitute to light our fires, sweep

There have been many theories to explain the

have thought it must be of animal origin, some
vegetable, some mineral some have maintained
that it is an. amin al substance similar to bees

rage to che theory that amber is a gum which
oozes IN d liquid state out Of the pine tree, and
then solidites. These last theorists appear to
be nearer the truth than either of the Others
