for he now has all annual output of about I5o to 200 skins worth from $50 to S25o each. He also operates store and between thls and his foxes, keeps busy. Last year, at considerable expense, he imported seven silver gray foxes, and hereafter will devote consid- erable attention to them. The silver grays are hunters, and rarely eat anything they do not kill themselves. They require special attention, and the corral to hold them cost $3,ooo to in stall. The blue foxes, on the other hand, get their living from shell fish and fish cast up by the sea. On all the islands l have selected there are reefs that stretch out into the open water and form natural hooks to catch all the drifting fish or seal or whales. Then when the tide is low the foxes set forth to see what the waves have brought.
 Should there be nothing in the fish or whale line, they immedi- ately set to work picking up shell fish, and thus require nothing but a watchman to keep poachers

FOX RAISING ON THE
 SHUMAGIN ISLANDS

Raising foxes on the Shumagin islands, Alaska, can be made profitable business, and will pay as regular dividends as any com nercial enterprise. says Andrew Grosvold who for the last fifteen years has been gradually building up his fox raising farms until he values his holdings at more than SIoo, 1000.
 MT. Grosvold uses different methods from the ordinary fox raiser, as he has unlimited isl ands at his disposal, and when he wants to increase his production he take another island, stocks it with ten pairs of foxes, hires a Watchman and waits for results. Because of the fact that he i'm ported blue foxes to start with, he says that he does not have to worry about feeding the animals, as they are clam eaters, and like the Indians, when the tide is out their table is set.
 Mir Grosvold went to Alaska in 1886 as hunter and trapper. He tried his hand also at fishing and mining, but finally decided on raising blue foxes. Time has proved the wisdom of his plans,

They come, sometimes, without our
knowing what brings them. There is
always a cause. but we are not always
conscious of it. have had some Sab
bath mornings that rose upon me with
healing on their wings. after troubled
week. I can scarcely tell why I was
troubled. but the minds fruit was not
sweet. Yet, when the Sabbath morning
came. no sooner looked down. upon the
bay and across at my morning signal
the star on Trinity church, symbolic OF
the star that hung over the spot where
the child Jesus lay--than felt that it
was an elect morning. And when I went
into the street. all the trees-if it was
summer-were murmuring to me; all
the birds were singing to me; every
thing was kindred to me. All my soul
rejoiced; I do not know why. - But
undoubtedly there was some cause OPP
Grating which was in consonance with
the laws of the mind; and when the
morning came. with its propitious con-
junction of circumstances. these results
took place.

A LITERAL HE'LL

1t appears that a Toronto pastor has
created somewhat of a stir in his city be-
cause of having expressed doubt that
there is a literal hell He takes the posi-
ton that the torment provided for the
sinful is moral or spiritual. not material;
but this evidently worries some OF the
residents of the fine city where he has his
work They seem not to be at ease men,
tally unless they have the unshaken
assurance that somewhere there is a
great caldron spouting fire and prim-
stone, amply provided with fireproof IN
struments of torture, for the entertain
ment of certain erring mortals they have
known, doubtless including sundry rela-
tives. Everybody has a few relatives he
does not hope to neighbor with in the
next world. 1t is really rather strange
though, that at this time anybody should
long for hell other than the one now
being conducted under eminently re-
spectacle auspices in Europe and Asia
