Spring and tho Animals.


system which comes with the advent of
spring, and which is already beginning
to be apparent, reminds US Of a subject
to which We feel the ACCESSIBILITY Of re.

that is the inability of working animals

the season that they can bear after
awhile. Horses are often injured by q
neglect of owners to observe this well.

HOW LOGS GO TO WILL.

All boys and girls know that board,
are made of sawel logs. and that .ogs
are trunks of trees. Few, however,
know with what hardship aud difficulty
the trees are felled. trimmed and car
rled from the woods where they grow
to the mills where they arc made into
boards.
In the far West and in the wilds of
Name are acres upon acres, and miles
upon miles, OF evergreen forests. One
wooded tract in Maine is 50 vast that it
takes an army of choppers twenty years
to cut it over BY the time it is done a
new growth has sprung up. and an in
termediate one is large enough to cut;
SO the chopping goes on year after
year. The iirst or pr,meval growth IS
pine. That is most valuable. After
the pine are cut, spruce and hem!ock
spring up and grow.
Most of the men who live in the vicin-
ity of the lake region work in the
woods in the winter. They camp in
tents and log huts near the tracts where
they are telling trees. All day long,
day after day, week after week, they
chop down such trees as are large
enough to cut, lop off the branches and
haul the logs to the nearest water. This
work is done in winter because the logs
are more easily managed over snow
and ice. All brooks large enough to
carry them. all rivers. ponds and lakes
are pressed into service and made to
convey the ponderous freight towards
civilization. All along the shores and
in the woods are busy scenes-men.
oxen and horses bard at work, the
smoke from the logging camps curling
among the trees. o
Every log has the initial or mark of
the owner chopped deep into the wood
to identify it. Then, when the ice
breaks up. the logs are sent down the
brooks to the rivers and through the
rivers to the lakes. The logging camps
are disbanded, the loggers return to
their homes, and the river.drivers alone
are left to begin their duties.
The river-drivers are the men who
travel with the logs from the beginning
Of their journey till they are surrender:

that the hillary fluid has strayed from it'
proper channels. impeding digestion. disor

internal disorder. No time should be lost
under such circumstances, in resorting to the
standard anti bilious remedy, Hestetter's

than in its reformatory action upon the great
bile-secreting organ. Renewed activity, when
the liver is sluggish, regular scliou of the
bowels, the disappearance of sick headaches,
heartburn. hatulence, and pain in the region
of the organ principally disturbed, may be
anticipated with just confidence by any bill

peerless regulator, and debilitated or nervous
sufferers experience the greatest benefit from
its tonic influence, while its efficacy in rheu-
matism and kidney weakness is equally well
authenticated.
