SKUNK A VERY VALUABLE FUR
BEARER
The old saying: "There is nothing in
the name" cannot be applied to the
American Skunk. Nothing but the
name has practically prohibited the sale
of skunk in America for many years.
The Europeans appreciated the beauty
of this silk -like fur, as well as its sup-
erior wearing qualities. The name
meant nothing to them. In past years
80% of the entire collection of Ameri-
can Skunk pelts were shipped to the
great Fur centres of Europe. The
Market value of tbe skins was made at
the four London Auction Sales of Furs
in January, March, June and October
of each year. The size of the collection
and the demand of fashion regulated
the price. A. B. Shubert, Inc., (The
Largest House in the World dealing ex-
clusively in American Raw Furs), Chic-
ago, U. S. A. who have been in the ex-
port business for more than a "third of
a century" have seen the price of
Skunk go as low as fifty cents and as
high as three dollars and fifty cents for
an average collection of mid -Winter
caught skins coming from the States of
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Il,inois, Ohio,
Michigan and similar sections.
Mr. Shubert states that it was a great
surprise to the collectors of Raw Furs
the remarkable way the American
people are now absorbing the collection
of Skunk. For the first time in the
history of the American Raw Fur busi-
ness, our American manufacturers were
able to sell this article in quantities. A
tremendous quantity of Skunk pelts
was cut in trimming for ladies' gar-
ments and much more into muffs and
scarfs. The article seems to be the
leader of the fashion in Fur, it can be
safely said that Skunk will be no less
popular the coming season.
If the demand should continue and is
equal to the supply, we will see a high-
er price for Skunk this coming Season
than was aver known and with an early
ending of the War in Europe, a much
higher price will be obtained. It is "in
the cards", but we must not forget the
fact that the Fur Game is not a child's
play. It's a gamble.
Belleville Licensed Victuallers' As-
sociation offered $1,500 to the Red Cross
if the committee would persuade the
temperance people to call off the local
option vote contemplated in January
until after the war is over. No action
was taken.
MOTHERS!

pealed to us recently. She wrote :

A MARVEL IN METAL.
Story of a Steal Flea Made In Ger-
many and Sent to Russia.
The Russian peasants, of course, are
neither scientists nor technologists;
but even they think that they can do 'a
few things -and especially work met-
als-as
etals-as skillfully as anybody. A cen.
tury or two ago, according to a folk
tale current in Russia, the gossudar
Ithe czar) called together a dozen or
more peasants who had a reputation
for skill in the working of metals and
exhibited to them a steel flea of natn-
rul size which bad been "made in Ger-
many" and had been sent to him, part-
ly as a gift and partly to show the deli-
cacy of the German smith's work. The
gnssudar banded it to the peasants on
a plate and said:
"Look at that! Yon think that yon
can work metals, but 1 don't believe
there's one of you can duplicate that
steel ilea."
The peasants said, "Perhaps not,.ba-
tushka (little father), but if you will
let us take the flea home we will see
whet we can do."
The czar consented, and they retired.
A day or two later they reappeared.
and witb low bows presented to their
monarch on a plate the same German
flea. but without the expected dupla
cute.
"A13:" said the czar. "You couldn't
make another. 1 knew' you couldn't."
"Will your majesty deign to look at
the flea through a magnifying glassy'
replied the peasants.
A glass was brought, and upon close
inspection It was found that the Rus-
sian metal workers had shod the Ger-
man flea with steel shoes. -Outlook.
DEEP SEA EXPLORATIONS.
Fishing With a Line That Is Some-
times Over Six Miles Long.
The Albatross, the vessel that has
been used by the oceanographers for
some thirty years in deep sea explora-
tams, fishes with u line three miles
Jong. often four miles long, sometimes
six miles long or over, a line of slender
cable. but wonderfully strong, rolled
off a deck winch by a sputtering
steam engine, that will bring up from
the ocean floor a three or four ton
haul of sponges, crinoids, jellyfish, sea
urchins, giant crabs, long white worms
that break in two 11 you touch them,
phosphorescent trees (really animals),
sea cucumbers with hideous heads,
starfish, devilfish, pelican fish, lantern
fish. sharks' teeth, whales' ear bones,
sea cows' ribs and scores of other ex-
traordinary things.
The Albatross follows no beaten
paths of commerce. She goes where
other vessels rarely go. She explores
forgotten corners of the seven seas,
drops her great nets by day and by
night. takes hundreds of soundings in
uncharted waters and, after a cruise*
of months, brings home her trophies
for final safe keeping in jars filled with
alcohol and labeled with Greek and
Latin names. This sort of work she
has been doing for thirty odd years,
ever since George W. Baird designed
her engines for the United States fish-
eries service in 1882. It is worthy
of note that the Albatross was the first
steel steamer built in America. -Cleve-
land Moffett in American Magazine.
Aisle of the Car In a Railroad Wreck.
A veteran railroad man gave a piece
of valuable advice some time ago.
"If you ever get into a wreck," he
said. "and have time to follow out this
suggestion remember this: Always
stand In the aisle. Most of the in-
juries that are suffered occur because
the victim is crushed between tbe
seats. If you are in the aisle you may
he thrown forward and bruised a lit-
tle. but there is much less chance of
receiving serious hurts. It. isn't always
possible to get out of your seat before
the Brash comes. but tf it is follow
that advice." -Louisville Courier -Jour-
nal.

Mr. L. Hembly will move his family
to Palmerston, next week, having
secured employment at his trade there.
Mr. Wm. S. King, who has been a
resident of town for a few years, will
remove with his family to his farm,
near Manchester, next week.

Forester business, on Wednesday,
Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Gillespie were
visiting friends in Bervie during the
week,
Mr. Robert Cornyn, on Thursday of
last week, about 5.30 o'clock p. m„ was
badly burned at the Union furniture
factory. The workmen were busy
putting the roof on the dry kiln, and
I were using pitch for that purpose, which
was being melted in a large kettle.
IThe pitch caught fire several times, and
the fire was smothered out and no
damage done. Mr. Cornyn, who had
come up the day previous from Toron-
� to, was standing looking on when the
pitch took fire again, and he, without
thinking, grabbed a pail of water that
was standing near, and dashed it into
the burning fluid, and his face and hands
were frightfully burned.
Mr. Sextus Kent, one of the oldest
and most highly esteemed residents of
the town, died on Thursday of last week,
aged 74 years and 10 months, was born
in Staffordshire, England, and was
brought to Canada by his parents in
infancy. His parents'settled in Byron,
near London. In 1824, he, with his
parents, removed to London township
and followed agricultural pursuits for
about ten years and removed to the

Types of Feet.
Among the rations races of men,
three types of feet occur. Certain pure
races have one type of toe which is
characteristic of each. race. Thus, the
Zulus. the Basques and probably most
pure Celts have the even toed foot,
while the Papuans. the Bosehmen and
a number of African tribes, as well as
both ancient and modern Egyptians,
have the arch toed foot. Many Euro-
pean nations. however. have a mixture
of the three types. But it is certain
that among the English. and probably
among the Germans. French and
Greeks. the even toed foot is the com-
monest —Strand Magazine.

COUGHED SO HARD
Would Turn Black
In The Face.
SHE WAS CURED BY USING
DR. WOOD'S
Norway Pine Syrup.
Mrs. Ernest Adams, Sault Ste. Marie,
Ont., writes: "My little girl, six years
old, had a dreadful hard cough. At
nights she would cough so hard she would
get black in the face, and would cough
for several hours before she could stop.
We tried different kinds of medicines and
had several doctors, but failed to do her
any good. She could not sleep nor eat
her cough was so bad, and she was simply
wasting away. A friend advised me to
try Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup, I
gat a bottle and saw an improvement,
and got another. Now I am only too
glad to recommend it to all mothers."
Too much stress cannot be laid on the
fact that a cough or cold should be cured
immediately.
Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup will
cure the cough or cold and prove a pre-
ventative from all throat and lung
troubles such as bronchitis, pneumonia
and consum)tion.
"Dr. Wood's" is put up in a yellow
wrapper; three pine trees the trade mark ;
price 25c and 50c, per bottle.
