a fund of classic lore and enjoying
themselves thoroughly at the same
time.

mated at 81 400, of which amount
the ladies have agreed to raise the
half.

the hunter might know just where
he is to go and where not. 1t is very
inconvenient to go to every house
and ask permission to hunt and very
Notifying to be ordered off Hence
let US have something besides small
piece of paper or board stuck up at
some remote corner of the field, and
that, peradventure, to cover a whole
farm. The hunter suggests that a
pole be set up in the center of every
field which must not be entered, hav-
ing red cross piece at the top.
