Hard For the Eskimos.

One Of the difficulties Of the Mora
Wan missionaries in Labrador Is to
make the Old Testament. with its
wealth Of pastoral detail, Ineligible
to the EskimOs, not one Of whom has
ever seen u horse. "Sheep and cattle"
says Hesketh Pritchard in Hunting
Camps In Wood and Wilderness"
they cannot realize or conceive of.
for there are no dOmesticated animals
save dogs in that portion Of the PENN
sula. They comprehend the story OF
Esau. the hunter. and that Of Samson
and the lion. which animal can he
translated as polar bear. but Of Abra
ham in the land of Mesopotania they
can form no picture. The nearest APP
proach to these IDEAS is drawn from
the harvest Of the sea, seals and fish
taking the place Of focks and herds"

Mistletoe a Menace.

Few people who know mistletoe only

Because the contract was award
ed to a party from outside the
State, the papers Of Wilmington are
condemning the gentlemen who
composed the board having the
power to furnish the remodeled
State House and additions thereto,
and take the ground that Whining
ton interests were ignored. As
matter of fact, the Wilmington firms
failed to present any definite prob
lem of their purpose; simply waited
until the commissioners stated ex-
actly what they desired to have
done. We believe that was done
very clearly when the information
was given as to the amount of money |
that was available for the furnish
lngs, and when the parts of the
was shown which were to
be furnished. From that point on,
t was the duty of the firms inter
'sted to present their proposition 10
he commission, as to just what a
hey would do for the amount avail
bic. This was exactly what the j
arty from Philadelphia did, and
that the Wilmington people failed v
} do, and which plainly showed
lie fact that the firms of Whining il
