contract provided penalties for such
failure and his concern was COM
PEELED to pay penalties in the sum
OF t8.7b7,0o0. Towne testified that
he obtained remission of the penal

Answers to Ysstsrday's Questions.
First.--What aids a baby bird to
break its shellf
The freeing Of baby birds from
their nests Ia rendered the more easy
by the fact that toward the last the
shell becomes very rotten; the acids
that are generated by the growing

that one can hardly touch a fully In
cubated birds egg without breaking

insure It's speedy death.

birch. namely. the white cedar for
