There are prosaic men and women,
and there are matter of fact dogs. Fol-
purely business purposes they are often
the best
We once owned an excellent retriev-
ing spaniel of the simple order of mind,
without grain of hdmor. This dog ac-
companied us unasked when we wanted
to shoot a bulffnch in The garden to
stuff. The gun went off, and the poor
bullanch dropped.
Now, this dog had been used, when
the gun was fired, to go and look for a
dead or wounded rabbit. So, instead
of looking under the apple tree, he dis
appeared into the hedge, and in few
minutes he returned with a rabbit in his
mouth So much for the value of a
matter of fact dog.-London Spectator.

Eskimo Divorce Methods.

They are in advance even of Dakota
ideas. The marriage ceremony itself is
very simple among our Eskimo fellow
men. All that is necessary is for the
young couple TO make up their minds
and then walk away together. The bride
goes to the house of the groom. 1t is not
the custom for him TO hang around his
father-in-law's mansion and be support
ed. As Eskimo ideas go, the husband is
fairly good to his wife, regarding her
with more affection than one would ex-
pect from human beings so low in the
social scale. An Eskimo father is fonder
of his children, too, than civilized fa-
theirs sometimes are of theirs In some
respects indeed the heather Eskimo is
much kinder and better family man than
the husbands and fathers of the most
ignorant classes found in the slums Of
civilized cities are.
1t is in the matter Of divorce, how
ever, that the Eskimo idea is unique.
If Greenland husband is at outs with
his wife and tired of seeing her around,
he simply says to her: Get out | don't
want yon in my hut any more" She
gets out accordingly, taking her best
sealskins with her, and goes back to her
own relatives. If, on the other hand, she
is tired of him. she says only: II am
going to leave you. never want to see
you again" Then she gets up and goes.
and that is all there is of it. This meth
cd has the advantage of simplicity at
any rate, also that of saving lawyers
fees.

Whatcom county needs an influx OF
good farmers. The soil is exceedingly
fertile and well adapted for dairy pur-
poses, fruit culture, gardening and the
raising of all kinds Of farm produce.
With the land under cultivation, al
most every variety of grain, vegetables
and berries could be raised, and with
less toll than is required to till the soil
In many other parts of the United
States. The market 1 lso is here, judg-
ing from the amount of vegetables and
garden truck brought in by the Cali
fornia steamers. Farmers should be
induced to locate in this county, and
the principal way to accomplish this
end is to reduce the price Of land to the
lowest snm consistent with its produc-
ing qualities, and also to break up large
areas into small farms and put these on
the market. 1t is gratifying to know
that large tracts Of land throughout the
county are being cleared for farming
purposes, but this work is necessarily
slow, especially where it is being per-
formed in installments by the owner Of
a large farm. 1t would certainly be
better to have large number of small
farms all under cultivation than a
small number of large farms only part
of which is in a condition to yield a
profitable return to the owner.
