mature? Rob writes that the sleigh
ing is good and not much seeding
done: so the shelters can't be- very

ness, Fred-it's this way: Robert went
to the door one bright spring morn
ing, a fortnight or SO ago, and a hasty
glance showed him what he thought
was wide expanse of snow. But the
Record learns from people up from
the Winona country that what the
young man supposed was snow were
almost innumerable white wild geese,
going north, that had settled for
miles on all sides Of the Petrie domi-
cile. The good sleighing" informa-
tion was probably the result of Rob's
four-ply imagination received through
heredity on the paternal side. We
would give further details were it not
that the excessively hot day causes
the perspiration to fill our eyes and
drop ON the paper as we write. This,
with the alighting ON our nose OF the
flies, mosquitoes and other insects,
causes writing to be burden, aud we
therefore cut it short.-Ed Record
