Little Bear shivered with fear. That pleased Auntie Cinnamon's twins so much that they told Little Bear ono story atter another, just to see flim look frightened. But the joke was on them, because, while they were trying to scare Little Bear, they had frightened them- selves so badly that ,they jumped every time the friendly owl 'spoke in the forest. Of course Little Bear straightway asked Father Bear many questions about Grandfather Grizzly .and his folks. At last he said, "If I ever meet a grizzly, up I ego, up I go, to the top of the highest tree 1" "No, indeed! You shall not be it coward!" ianswered Father Bear. "If you ever see a grizzly coming, even though it be Grandfather Grizzly himself, •-ou walk on .and meet him." "Meet him 1" echoed Little Bear, in faint 'tones. "Yes Son Bear, you meet him. Meet him face to face, and say, 'Good morning, sir !' " After that, Little Bear did not feel so happy as usual in the big woods. He dreaded the 'thought that he might see a grizzly coming and he obliged to.meet him and say, "Good morning, sir, good morn- ing!" One day soon afterward, Little Bear fell asleep on .a ,sibelf of rock; he was warm and comfortable in the ,sunshine. When he awoke, he BMW below hien a huge (bear patient- ly trying to remove a birch of burs from the back of his neck; the burs were stinking 'tight in his fur. Little Bear might easily have slipped off the back of the sock and have run softly away; instead, he offered to .help the stranger. "I think .I can get those burs out of your coat," said he. Straightway .the big bear turned a troubled dace upward. ('Then do so," he ,advised, "Jump down on my back, and use your sharp dlaws, young sub, and be quick abet`` it." His tones were rough, but Little Bear did not 'blame the old fellow for that. When the burs were out, Little Boar jumped to the ground. "1 ,thank you, sir," said the stranger, rising and shaking his huge body. "What's your nutmeg" "My name is Little Bear, of 'the ancient family of the Tree Bears, if you please," was the prompt and fearless answer. "I am pleased to have met you," remarked the big ,boar, scratching his ear with his hind paw. "Tell your father and your another • that old Grandfather Grizzly says you are a brave ,young cub. If I can ever be of any use to your ,ancient family, I shall be glad to help you. Good day, sir 1" And off he went through the woods, "siripslop, •slip- elop,' on this huge flab feet,' Little Bear ran home as East as he could. . "What did I Meld you?" inquired Father Bear, when he had heard Little Bear's .story. "I'll never be afraid of the griz-. elie:s again," anseverecl Little Bear:, gayly hopping about, Bab Auntie Cinnamon's twins still tremble at the bhougtht of numb- ing Grandfather Gr'izzily.---Youth's Coanpanion, • Surgery Extraordinary. There appears to be no limit to the daring and skill of the modern surgeons, which are nowadays so amazing that they verge on the mir- aeuloue. Within the last dew months we have read of the restora- tion of a blind man's sight by trans- planting etsssions of the cornea from a boy's eye which the surgeon bad been obliged to remove; and of a ,girl, ,part of whose brain bad been taken away, without the least ,harm- ful consequences.

But spring in eastern Canada scarcely exists, One leaps at a bound aa it were, from win- ter to full summer ,• and. it is only afterwards one recollects that there were days full of "the infinite ex- pectation of the dawn," when one watched the exquisite little waves of warm, light green breaking over the tree -tops, and welcomed the robins back to the garden, full of the business of life and mating; to see them later settling down to the responsibility of the worm winner of the brood. Summer in Quebec is hot, and is given up to tourists who take infinite pains to "do" a number of things that no native has ever heard of; but with the beginning of September one .looks forward to eight weeks or more of fine, exhilarating weather, and the sport one loves best, Each clay is like a golden gift, accepted with deeper intensity of gratitude be- cause of the underlying, impoignant sense of impermanence, and the knowledge that "the shadow of the winter's on the year." Mind and body are in tune after the holiday, and respond gloriously to the fine, incisive quality of the half -summer half -autumn air that makes all ex- ercise a delight, The beauty' of the splendid autumn fires burns on every hillside, and kindles every bush and roadside weed into scar- let and copper and gold. The prim- itive instinct to kill awakes, and the hunter goes off to,the hill, or, taking his gun and his dog, spends long days of Tramping the Swamp. The swamp extends from Quebec to St. Joachim, a distance of 20 miles. It lies all the way between the railws-• track, from which it is separated by a natural hedge of small bushes --alder, thorn, and young willow—and the river St. Lawrence, Near Quebec the -ground behind the swamp is almost level, but it gradually humps itself into steep and irregular hills the nearer one gets to St. Joachim, These hills being wooded with birch and maple to a great extent, have often begun to turn .even by the last week of August, and to color finely in true Canadian fashion. The prevailing tone varies in accordance with the season; if there has been a great deal of rain the leaves are some- times almost wholly yellow, giving the effect of hills in perpetual strong sunlight. An early frost produces the brilliant and various reds, broken here and thereby the dark or vivid greens of the conifers or deciduous trees that, for some reasons or other, are uneffected by the causes that have touched the others. In these frills there are plenty of partridges, more properly ruffed grouse—and not many miles north of Ohateau Richer and Ste Anne, caribou anti a few red deer may be met with. The swamp itself is a slightly raised ride, averaging about 180 yards in width, but varying greatly. It is crossed .at intervals by little streams which at high tide are filled with river water, when one has to, walk up to the railway bridge to cross them. The swamp is only completely covered at the high tide once a month. It is thickly overgrown with rank grass, sea - hay, and a tangle of wild stuff ; and as old seigniorial law gives the resident right to thehay, the swamp We Do the (, ookh 'rrg You avoid fussing over a hot stove— Save time and energy— Have a dish that will please the home folks!

Ont. is cut by the farmers, who feed their cattle with this coarse fodder. The strips of out -grass just the width of the hind higher up owned by the farmer, alternating with frequent pools and the generally wet and soft ground, add to the Difficulty of Walking. This is particularly the case to- ward the card of the season, when the west wind and raiu have beaten down the tall grass, making the walking from cast to west almost impossible Inc any bub an ardent and youthful sportsman, Below the swamps are the Beaupoi't flats proper—wide., level stretches of mud, inlaid, as it were, with pools which are full of curious refiectiens of farm and color, and broken by sudden, angular ridges of slaty rock It is here the plover feed, Beyond the flats are huge boulders on which numbers of great blue herons—very picturesque in spite of their poker - stiff necks and various mechanical movements—and gulls of various species sit to feed at low tide. With the herons it is a case of distance lending enchantment, and it is per- haps as well that, they are difficult to approach, for their ungainly logs and neck, anti their loose, dull gray plumage infested with parasites, at close quarters detract somewhat from the effect gained by their re- moteness. The natural beauty of the swamp is very great. Behind, inthe north, are the hills ablaze against the clear blue sky with the transform- ing fires of autumn ; and parallel with the swamp from, Montmorency to Ste Anne runs the Island of Or- leans, separated from the mainland by a shallow channel three quar- ters of a mile wide, In late Octo- ber and the beginning of November great convoys of thousands of ducks of many species gather in the chan- nel; and though the Quebec game laws distinctly state that no wild- fowl of any sort may be shot from a motor -boat, yet the duck are con- stantly being chalked by men in gasolene -launches, and this in broad daylight, under the eyes of every sportsman on either the Island or the Ste Anne swamp! The is- land swamp closely resembles the Ste Anne side, except that, on ac- count of the small size of the Is- land, there are no streams. At Ste Anne, Grande llliviere, which is of considerable size com- pared with the numerous little run- nels that flow down the hillsides, and almost deserves its name, divi- des the swamp by its several chan- nels. At high tide the delta is full of islands frequented sometimes by small "bunches"—to use the local term—of golden eye or mergansers. The general color of the swamp is brownish -gray, yellowing in the dis- tance. On a clear day, as one looks down towards the end of the Island, the water is of an intense ultra- marine blue, and the bold promon- tory of Cap Tourment is backed by almost summer-like anasses of white cumulus cloud. Strange and wonderfully beautiful mirage effects are seen near St.' Joachim, and through the crisp air one can hear the church hells of Chateau Richer and Ste Anne for miles. The shin- ing spires of the great church, to which thousands of pilgrims retake their way every year, are clearly visible lifting into the sky. The original shrine was built by a few French sailors, -who had been saved from drowning, and expressed their gratitude and devotion in simple and patriarchal fashion by erecting an altar to their friend and patron.

It takes a ittle less than an hour to get to Ste Anne by electric tram; but a avorite device is to shoot for an. hour or two in one place, and then take the tram which runs hourly, or three or four miles, and try the wamp again farther down. It is clear, almost windless day in e arly September, with a slight haze anging about marsh and river, that oils and softens all marsh outlines without obscuring the view, The Swamp .is Tull of Birds. ut so early in the season snipe re few, and those found are small, reeding birds, very generally dis-. ribated.

Sometimes they fly to the hills, and are lost to view in the trees. The habitants make them into a not unsavory pie, and are very glad of a present of a couple, when at midday one finds one's way up to a cottage to get a Cup of coffee and a huge bowl of real habitant soup—almost a stew, and extraordinary good. The French-Canadian farmers in this locality are extremely well-to-do, and live very comfortably. "On mange comme it faut chez nous" was the dignified reply of a farmer wife to a young and hungry hunter who demanded rather magnifi- cently What Ile Could Have to Eat. and after partaking of their good fare he felt inclined to agree heart- ily in the vernacular "Beau dem- mage 1" which is equivalent to "Rather !"

Young black cluck in the early season, and there are plenty of other wild and in the river—scaup, golden -eye, mergan- sers, and "butberball." Often small flocks of butterba•Il are flushed from the crossing streams. They paddle' violently along the water for a few yards to gain impetus, hurl them- selves into the air, and fly like small cannon balls far down the river, till they join a flock of their own species in mid -channel, or dis- appear completely. Tha sun drops below the northern Bills comparatively early,and ,the mist which has hung aout the swamp and river all day becomes a translucent golden haze. The spires of Ste' Anne reflect a crimson glow, and the little cottages on the Island seem to be on fire, The luminous color graduoutly becomes more opa- que, and through the thickening mist the lights of Quebec begin to appear one by one, till dusk falls completely, and the city lies like a handful of twinkling jewels on the hill.

Constantly on their feat, attending to the wants of a large and exacting family, women often break down with nervous exhaustion. In the stores, factories, and .on a farm are weak, ailing women, dragged down with torturing backache and bearing down pains. Such suffering isn't natural, but it's dangerous, because due to diseased kidneys. The dizziness, insomnia, deranged menses and other symptoms of kidney complaint can't cure themselves, they require the assistance of Dr. Hamil- ton's Pills which go direct to the seat of the trouble. To give vitality and power to the kidneys, to lend aid to tiro bladder and liver, to free the blood of poisons, probably there is no remedy so suc- cessful as 'Dr, Hamilton's Pills, For all womanly irregularities their merit is well known, Because oftheir mild, soothing, and healing effect, Dr. Hamilton's Pills are safe, and are recommended for girls and women of alt ages, 25 cents per box at all dealers, Refuse any sub- etitute for I)s'.1-tamilton's Pills of Man - drab and Butternut, Knee Joint Still' Three Years CURED BY NERYILIi'1E, • Anyone would -marvel at any recov- ery, writes Mr, Leonard Lothar, a young 10051 well known about Chat- ham, i had inherited a rheumatic ten- dency through my mother's family, and in my early days suffered fright- fully. About three years ago the pain and stiffness settled in my left knee Joint, I was lame and walked with a very distinct limp. Nerviline was brought to my notice and I rubbed it into the stiff Joint four or five tines a day, It dispelled every vestige of pain, reduced the swelling, took out the stiffness and gave lie the full use of my limb again. I don't believe there is a pain -relieving remedy, not a sin- gle liniment that can compare with Nerviline. I hope evbry person with pains, with sore back, with lameness, with lumbago, with neuralgia --I do hope they will try out Nerviline which I am coevhnced will quickly and per- manently cure them."

JOSEPH DOIIER'FY The Canadian Minister of Justice Is a Genial ]fan. . Hon. Chas, Joseph Doherty, Minister of Justice and member of the House of Commons for the St. Ann's District of Montreal, is act- ing as Premier while Sir Robert Borden takes a rest in Muskoka from the worries and labors of that position. From the worries par- ticularly would Sir Robert be de- livered. "Judge" Doherty is not a wor- rier, He has the happy faculty of working without worrying, His nature is that of a genial, sunny- dispositioned Irishman of ripened philosophy. He smokes a cigar with extreme calm and enjoyment. He can relax—that's the blessed en- dowment which distinguishes him from his leader, Sir Robert, who is conscious of his responsibilities all the time, day or night. Nothing more ]earned, sounder, or sounding, than Judge Doherty's speeches in the House are ever heard there since his election in 1908. The Minister of Justice de- livers his utterances from his seat Iron. C. J. Doherty. for St. Ann's, as he used to deliver his judgments from the bench of the Superior Court of Quebec, which he adorned for five years back in the nineties. His style is entirely judicial, tempered, how- ever, at times by a smile, and a de- licious underlying sense of humor. When be is in true form is when he is put up by the Government to state the legal and constitutional aspect of a subject in Parliamen- tary controversy. Then he suc- ceeds beautifully in making the question as clear as mud, Nobody on the Opposition side can follow him, while those on the Govern- ment side sit back at ease, smiling• They don't need to follow him, Sentences Miles Long. Tihey know the judge can bewil- der them. He goes at it by a sys- tem of parenthesis. His sentences are miles long, with dependent clauses at every few garde. His •predicate verb is withheld until the last. Nobody knows when it is coming, not even the judge. After he is satisfied that he has completely involved his hearers in a hopeless tangle of comparisons, he, with marvellous surety and skill, pities Isis way out of his par- enthesis, closing thein after frim ono by one, like gates, and cones to his final assertion and his verb so long awaited, By that time the subject at the other end of the sen- tante is forgotten, It's a perfectly good sentence, however—if his hearers could only follow it, with a logical argument in it, all excep- tions,eases tions, accidents, fare well w , etc., eta„ duly noted by the way; Judge Doherty, as was univer- sally ncknowledeecl, made the wit- tiest anti best epeeo']I at the Press Gallery dinner last session, It was spontaneous entirely, being suggested by e, joke in the menti card uposs his parenthentical, inde- terminate sentences, As a genial after-dinner speaker trust an irislunan, and Judge Dollexty le an Irishtnstn, inasmuch as Itis father and mother both :come from the troubled isle, POINTED PA RA GRAPHS! Theories amuse lie more worry than clo fitcts. Dead men's shoes seldom fit those who wait for thorn. The charity that begins at home also + ' < Ul'Cra a lot of stns. Boat rockers on the sea of matri- mony deserve their fate. Some men carry their courage around in a pocket flask. Many a man learns something every time a fool blunders. A woman's strength lies in her knowledge of a man's weakness. Some men are honest because they are toe poor to be otherwise. It sometimes happens that the chap who hesitates doesn't get lost. A man is known as his mother's son until lie becomes his wife'a ihusband, A good woman may be talked about, but she doesn't talk about 1 others.

Some Insurance Items. Beyond the fact that we can in- sure our own Iives—a duct of which agents, canvassers, and officers do not fail to remind us—few people know that quite legal insurances can the taken out in many ways, says London Answers, For instance, every subject of the King has an insurable interest in the King's life, and may insure him. A creditor can legally insure the life of a debt- or for the amount of the debt, and, even when the debt is paid, the cre- ditor may lawfully continue the in- surance. An employer of labor can insure the lives of his workers, the insurable interest, which alone makes the policies legal, being that he is liable for fatal injuries, receiv- ed in the course of their work. Mere relationship does not create an insurable interest. Husbands and wives can insure each other, and a child can insure its father; but a brother cannot, generally speaking, insure his !brothers and sisters. Life policies can be sold or assigned, with notice to the com- pany •and an acknowledgment, but fire policies are not transferred' without the company's consent, A Friend of the Policeman Continually on their feet, the "Peelore" are invariably troubled with corns and bunion -bub not for long, because they know of to quick cure, Putnam's Corn Ex- tractor. it cures painlessly in 24 hours; try "Putnam's," 25c. at all dealers.
