If they could have ten days or two
weeks more of good roads they would
break all previous records. They have
had very good winter, one of the best
they have ever had, and they have al
ready banked IL 100000 feet of logs
and wanted to get in about 10000, 900
more.
There VIII be given by the ladies'

knowledge in this direction will be by

A new story by Kirk Munroe, en-
titled Canoe mates: A Story of the

Th estory is one of the best yet writ
ten by MIR. Munroe, being in nowiSe
inferior to Its predecessors in regard
to faithfulness of description and local
color and abundance of incident. The
illustrations by w. A. Rogers add
greatly to the vividness of the mar
ratlVe.
