A Wisconsin girl put on trousers
and started through the deep snow
to walk elk miles to a village for
provisions, the family Harder being
empty. She soon became tired out,
besides losing her ay. and the cold
was intense. A big Newfoundland
dog which accompanied her was the
means of saving her life She
scooped oIt hollow in the snow,
lay down in it, and made the warm
dog lie on her, shifting him about
50 as to uc:essively cover the cold
est parts of her body. 10 that way
she passed whole night, and was
not very severely frostbitten. "With
two or three more dogs she says,
II would have got along very com~
fortably."

A MISSING DOCUMENT FOUND.

A fortune of $l2,000,000 may
turn upon bit of yellow parchment
found 10 q rubbish heap. A NOVA
Scotia journal says that the agent
employed by the heirs of the Hyde
estate to go to England has written
encouraging reports. He has met
the directors of the Bank of Eugs-
land, where the money is deposited.
Hyde was formerly in Annapolis,
having been sent out by the lmperi-
al Government. He had one daught
err born in NOVA Scotia The mon>
ey in question to her after he died
An intimation was sent to this coun-
try many years ago asking for the
heirs. The family Of the Hydes in
the United States took the mater up
and decided that the real heirs were
iu Nova Scotia. The missing link
up to recent period was proof that
the original Hyde was the one who
held the imperial commission and
went to Annapolis. There was no
of his to be found. A
few years ago an old trunk was sold
at auction and bought by woman
for twenty five cents. She subse'
qucntly broke it up for kindliug
wood, and in the lining found a
document, which she
deemed so pretty with the seals at

of preservation. Subsequently she
