Squirrels as Tree- Planters. Contrary to common belief, the gray squirrels of Canada do 'net lay tin their winter store of nuts in mass, but bury each one separate and apart from the rest, and for this reason they are nature's • most important chestnut, hiokory, and walnut tree planters. The nuts are hidden in the ground, often at a eonsiderable dis- tance frcim one another, and either by instinct or a remarkable memory the squirrels -will penetrate through several feet of snow when in want of food and seldom; if ever, fail to find the heitleaa treasures. Tho :cro' not need er use the one- tenth' past of the provender they have hidden away in the ground, and what they do not consume germinates the next spring, and in this way vre get ous uniform nut -tree forest, • would otherwise grow in •olnetersallith der the parent tree where the nits have fallen. In their burying operatiens sq res often oover a large ifree of ground, seeking the most iavorable spots for hiding their food; Thai ac. counts for trees springing up ittetge most diverse places. Convenience of Dialect. During his recent visit to Canada, Rev. R. J. Campbell, of the City Tem- ple, London is said to have related few amusi4 little stories, for he is an aocomplisheel raconteur. One of rats best coneerned the eccentrieities of the English aceent. "Our worst accent," letedsaid, "is the Cockney one --the one that sear verts such a phrase as 'make "haste' tato 'mike iste,' and so on. once employed two roaids. One eame from D09011, the other was a Cockney. Both bore the name of ipatlierine, but that did not mean contusion in thenousehold when eithe er one was wanted.

In nearly all Christian omnitriee the recurrence of Easter has been cele. "rated vrIth various ceremonies and Popular sports and observances. Some of these customs are eurioas indeed. In the north of England you may still hear the old rime: Tid, said and misera, Carling, palm and Pasch egg day. • Tire first line refers to Christmas, the Epiphany and Lent. Carlings are eteeped peas fried In butter, with pep - Per and salt, and eitten on midient et . mothering Sundae-, as the fourth Suu. iday in Lent is sometimes called. Paint Sunday immediately precedes Passion week and is so called from the branches of palm trees strewn In our Saviour's path at the time of his tre . ittmphal entry into Jerusalem. Past% eggs are Easter eggs boiled so hard that you can playat ball with them dyed with various colors and often having inscriptions or lend - scares traced upon them. IEaster eggs symbolize the resurreet , tion. As one old writer says, "As the , bird imprisoned within the shell comes' i to life and liberty at the appointed time, so did our Saviour on Easter morning burst the gates of the grave," The eggs were at first dyed scarlet, in memory of the blood of Christ shed • upon the cross. . -- • ThEaster Ribleit. , e , . Once upon a time, so the stotygoen a nice, kind rabbit who was walkipg along a quiet woodland road came across a. fine, large nest filled with eggs.

The trousers need not be of exactly; the same shade or pattern, but they sbould all be of a striped gray cloth. •' Light vralstooats of silk or mixed sille materials are usually worn, but linen and 'cotton fabrics in gray and cream tvhite shades are perfectly correct. They need not all be of the same MP terial, but they should be of the seem color and the same cut. That is to say, a single or double breasted cut and a cuonlifor!rmite of gray or cream white in Colored shirts should not be worn with dress of this style. To be sure shirts of delicate tones oe gray are ote casionally used, but the newest styles are those made of tine pique and Wiens with self stripes and figures, while, Of course,the plain linen shirts with plaited or plain tater fronts are always correct. As for collars, ene may wear tee straight standing, tire slightly poke pointed or the sharp or rounded wings. The neckties, worn are in shades of cream, white or gray and are made of silks of & fancy weavetor of basket or rib weave,, The Ascot shapes are tlaose usually considered most correct, but many prefer the medium width fear - in -bands. lir The groom always presents the ties and gloves to his best man and ushers. The gloves should be of light gray mocha or suede kid. The boots should boor patent leather with black kid tops.

In 1911 another millten aerees were added to t,he ama under wheat, bringing the total aoreage up to 10,330,000. Since 1901 the Wheat- area in tb.e Prairie Provinces alone heti groten from 2,500,000 to nearly 9,500,000 acres.
