In the legendary lore of Canada

ills company may be looked for
on all occasions. The accidental
appearance Of little child in the
room often betrays the presence Of
the evil spirit, as the poor innocent
is sure TO beWail itself vigorously.
The prince of darkness may be met

choice is usually the village coquette,
whose vanity or levity has exposed |
her to thu evil influence. In the
midst of the gaetY a piercing cry is
heard. A strong odor of birthstone |
becomes perceptible, and the at
tractive cavalier is waited out of the
carrying with him some use

escape with sharp scratch OF a claw,

than the general average will find
other people res0rting to him for
breeding stock and he can always

perhaps never will again pay $40, 600

who produces better beef cattle than
any one else will always find 81 ople

upon the merit that you can show
rather than what history or tradition
