When Paterfamilias has got through
paying his Christmas bills, and, even If
comfortably off, has a sober thought or
two about how future Christmas and
other bills might be met by those he
loves best If he should happen to be re-
moved from this mundane sphere, the
sight of an insurance circular is apt to
attract an unusual degree of attention.
Possibly on account of their knowledge
of this trait in civilized human nature,
or more probably because they transact
same as other people, and taks stock a.
the close of each year, and render an
account of their stewardship as soon
thereafter as conveniently may be. the
insurance fraternity are accustomed just
about this time to present a statement

possible friends. have before me now

Menan; rising on the coast opposite, at
Bathurst; sinking about the bay of
Fupday, where there are regions of
stumps submerged thirty-five feet at

Edwards Island. 1t is believed that,
in the Pacific Ocean, the region of the
Coral Islands has, in some portions,
sunk not less than six thousand feet
during comparatively recent geologic
times. Surveys made in northern
Sweden have shown, according to
Lyell, that the coast at that point is
rising at the rae of a out four feet in a
century.
