WINTER IN TIE NORTH.
What Cold Weather In Msnitobs MeNn
According To- a MuInnn,a En- ienre

! What Cold Weather In Manitobs MeNna
According to a Wuman's En-. I~n~e.
And this brings me to speak about
my experience of TIE climate Of Mani
tOba. The variations OF temperature
are very great. l have seen the thcr-
mometer stand at l2j 9 inside a tent
in summer. and at 80 : below zero. or
900 below freezing point. outside the
house in winter. Such Arctic cold
would be uncomfortable if the mir we're
not so wonderfully dry and cl.sr and
often very still-that it does not seem
half as cold as It really is. Then the
changes of weather are not generally
very sudden: the heat and cold are very
regular, and in mid seasons the thW
mometer does not iluctuate much.
Perhaps few homely details NAV
best serve to illustrate what winter IL
Manitoba means. The snow ouisid,
our house is from six TO ten feet deer
from November to April. Moccasins,
made by Indians of mOose- skin. or,
used instead of shoes to cover the feet.
which are first cased in several pairs OF
stockings
We were forced to melt snow for all
the water we used last winter. The
cold is so intense that when melted snow
water is poured from the boiler into
pail. and taken at once across to the
stable. the ice on it frequently has to be
broken with a stick before the ca tie can
drink. 1t is rather common sight t
see people partly frozen. The par,
akF I'd Il.
loses all feeling. Unless YOU see your
self in a glass. or are told of it. you are
not conscious of being frozen. In this
plight it is best not to 60 near fire. NJ
sudden thawing is very painful. People
generally try friction. rubbing them
selves with snow. or, better still. par
a4iine oil. Occasionally. when one is
frozen and far from help. the part
frozen, if an extremity. will strap on.
Last year man living about thirty
miles from us was told that his ear was
frozen; he put up his hand to feel. and
the ca. dropped off in his hand. Limbs
sometimes have to be amputatcd from
severe frost bites. My kittens ears
neighbor's pony lost ears in the same
way.
Twas surprised when first found the
mustard freeze in my mustard pot,
which stood foot from the kitchen
stovepipe and two feet above the stove.
where there was blazing fire all day
and every day through the winter. Yet
the mustard froze between every meal.
Bread froze if left for Lalf an hour in n
room without fire.
Such stories must sound almost In.
credible except to those who. like my
self, have witnessed the facts. though.
OF course. only in the most severe
weather.
Winter is, Of course, not equally
severe throughout Part of my descrip-
ton applies only to its colder half. But
to woman the most trying part OF q
winter in Manitoba is not its severity
for you live in warm house-but its
length. Snow lay ON the ground last
season for six months and a half. and
the great lakes were frozen for the same
period. Cor. Pailddelphi0 Press.
