HOW. ANIMALS LIVE IN WINTER.

Winter is coming and the wild creatures in the
north are preparing for the cold months. Some,
ike the squirrel store up food, but many more
go to bed to sleep through the cold days when
food is This winter sleep is called
Information.
Each animal chooses some comfortable place
for its long rest. The woodchuck rolls up in a
burrow in the hillside; the coon and bear find
caves among the rocks. Many of the warm
blooded animals do not sleep all winter but take
long maps from which they awaken on warm
days
The cold blooded creatures hibernate too
Snakes knot themselves up under a log or rock
toads, wood frogs and tortoises push down in the
soft earth; mud turtles and water frogs bury
themselves in the bottom of shallow streams and
ponds
They all sleep until hunger wakes them and
the first thing they do in the spring is to hunt for
good meal
Ii you want to see something hibernate it is
easy to keep a box tortoise or water turtle all
winter, in a box of earth and moss with pan of
water at one side
Before they go to sleep don't forget to feed
them every two three days bits of raw meat
or earthworms. They do not care to eat every
day and are able to go long time without food
box tortoise which boy has had in the
house for two years went to sleep the first winter
just as though he were out in the cold but the
second winter he only took short maps and had
become so tame he would eat out of the hand

Perhaps in writing of ceremonies the marriage
ceremony should not be omitted But that rite,
as We know it, really is omitted by the Samoans,
except those who have been educated by the
missionaries The latter always demand mis-
sion marriage but other natives still are salts
fed with the ancient forms, which consist In the
main of an exchange of presents and feast.
Divorce with them is even easier, for the dis
satisfied one merely leaves his or her mate But
while the marriage is in force the Samoan sets
an example to more civilized peoples in the mat
ter of conjugal faithfulness. Lack of dress does
not necessarily mean laxity of morals, the opin-
ion of the casual tourist to the contrary not

MODERN PROGRESS.

A noted English parliamentarian
tossed back his thick white name OF
hair, stroked his white beard and said
in broad Scotch accent to a New York
reporter:
The rise in world wages has been
great, but the rise in world prices has
been greater. We have had progress
but 1t has been progress in the wrong
direction
"A tourist was travelling in your

encampment he said to his cowboy
guide:
