will get the unsuspecting If they
"don't watch out."
Sinee the eighth century the tide-

that have now produced a young ar-

Domovn is conceded by his country-

geramental fellow and likely to play

sign that Domovyk has been around

Anotherwitch of the woods Is
Chuhaister, middle-aged and tricks.
High favorite with no one but the
owl, the bear and the squirrel, he
takes his revenge by following close

spikes and thrueting branches in their
way to make them stumble.

110,0005000 Bees1
TEN million bees were working
for us lase summer, gathering
nectar by day and evaporating
the water in it by night, converting
it into the delicious honey, that with
good bread and butter or hot bisctiits
or toast is food for a queen or your-
selves. While we told them "to go"
we did not hurry them, and gave
them some 8 months to finish the job
they were at, and they made a good
job of it, too, Have you tried some?
11 not, why not?

When members file into their seats
on Thursday afternoon, about 110
of them will have taken oath of par-

more will be returning to Parliament
after years of absence. Of those
who sat in the last parliament which
thictodns.235 members, about 125 were

The House will see again some in-
