n curious report was recently
brought home by 4 traveller from Nor
way, which. If 1t be true, will 90 far
to correct tic accepted ideas concern
ing the wisdom of cXtirlmtiny noxious
animals III countries where thew
abound. 1t is said that in one Of the
northern provinces the reward offered
by the government for the destruction
of wolves had resulted in their becom

there was every reason for congratulate

Known to man, the Norwegian wolves
had been constantly engaged in a pa
trlotic war of self defense against the
voracious packs of Russian Lapland;
so long as their numbers were undi-
minished they held their ground, and
even continued to do so for some time
after they had begun to be decimated
by the misguided hostility of their hu-
man fellows. 1t would seem that
there then supervened a period in
which the Russian wolves assumed a
Willy Fabian policy, "biding their
time until the hand OF man, stimulat,
ed by government blood money. had
finished its work
At last the ground was clear, but no
sooner had the Morse folk begun to re-
joice than n fresh incursion was re
ported OF huge hungry wolves from

pied the vacant hunting grounds of

over the business of 1887
showing a continuous and phe-
nomenal advance. The assets
of the Mutual Life now aggre-
gate $l36, 4O1,32S.O2, indicating
gain for the year of $10.319,-
174.46. The Company has now
an outstanding insurance &C

DIR. Peyton II. Hoge, pastor OF
the First Presbyterian church Of
Wilmington. n. g., has publish
ed an article in "rhe Star" on
Funeral Reforms" He says:
"There are three classes Of ques-
tions that suggest themselves in re-
ference TO the conduct Of funerals:
Questions Of health, questions of ex-
penditure, and questions Of taste or
decorum."
He thinks the. metallic case
which holds the germs of dis
ease for future distribution
should never be used but case
that will allow the body to re-
turn to the mother dust as soon
as possible; persons often stand
bareheaded and on wet ground
at funerals, which is often the
cause OF another funeral.
lie calls attention to the folly
of expensive funerals, and ap-
peals to the rich to set the eX-
ample CT common sense econo-
my. He thinks a profusion Of
flowers In bad taste, a simple
wreath is the proper thing. The
coffin should be closed at the
residences in the presence Of the
family only and not open after
wards.
