Mitchell wSmitetOrd e CLINTON 1 '001.1PAN. It Was Not a Pleasant Column to Edit a Few Years Ago. There iei no more attractive part of a newspaper than the society column, nor any more useful to those whom it is intended to serve. PrejudIce against the publioation of item formerly vonsidered an offensive in. trusion upon private affairs now hardly lingers in the most eonserva- tive quarters. A record in thepublic' prints of the comings and goings of soeiety people is held to be &moat as essential as the publication of the races, or the hiei and low on the stock market, and reports of the fes- tivities oi society appeal to at least a very large minority. It is general. ly understood that in gathering this dass oi news the workers assigned to that branch are rather likely to be embarrassed with volunteer aid. But when the daily press of Canada first tiegan to include society matter in its columns the public attitude was far different. A young aewspaperman in an east. ern town, who has since graduated ioto the rank e of professional poll- ticiaes, many years ego coueeived that a ehronicle ef the more impor- tant happenings in local, society would add a piquant flavor to the colunines ef his paper, and while the idea Was still fermenting in his am- bitious brain, he heard that a liter- ary light from Boston had recently visited a retired cioneert soprano of his own town. The newspaperman immediately"' called upon. the lady and made known his object. "I understand, Mrs. P.," he began, "you, had some people in last even- ing to meet Dr, of Boston. Pee - pie ere much interested in the cir- cumstances of the doctor's visit, and perhaps you will not mind telling me, the my paper, what form of entertain- ment you adopted for the (loathe and your friends." "Certainly non Mr. C.," said the lade', "nothing could have been sim- pler. We arranged our chairs about the fireplace thus, and, and talked." "Yes, Mrs, P.," said the reporter, "end after thae?", And after that, Mr. C., we went end stood on our heads in the corner." "What, ladies and all, nil's.P.?" "Lerlies and all, lifr. C." • Ane the inauguration of the society cielumn was temporarily deferred. Another Canadian Story -Writer. ' . Though he does not belong to the.

In Spite of All the Evils That Beset Him the Red Fax Thrives and Manages to Oat Along Almost Anywhere --He is a Fine Mouse. Catcher and Is of Great Service to the Farmer. Too well known to need descrip- tion; the joy of the henter: hated by the farmer, yet one of hitt best friends; hunted. trapped, and poison- ed. by experts everywhere, the red fox bolds his own in every sectiou of the country. In feet he appears to thrive and increase best under the most difficult conditions. Have you ever during the spring months visited a fox den where a mother fox and family reside? If not, one of nature's treats bas been missed. In crossing a piece of woods one fine spring afternoon 1 was at- tracted to a, place by a most pecoliar noise. Moving forward with extreme caution, I approached the brow of a high hill on the banks of the Notta- wasaga River, an ideal epee for a fox den. The afternoon sun shone warm on the hillside and. I approached carefully.. But the disturbance ceas- ed when I arrived at the spot. What appeared to be a evelhworn path down the hill caused me to remain quiet and await results. Suddenly tawny, yellow little aoirnal appeared and disappeared eeveral times. At last he was followed by a hall dozen More young. foxes. Then the row started once more, and, down the hill • on their path went rolling, tumbling, and growling, a bundle of young rogues. -4.t the bottom they would break away and rush up the hill a distance, then disappear into a hole only to appear higher up or lower down the • hill from some under- ground passage, and repeat the tum- bling act. A sharp cry in a thicket close by told me I had been seen by mother 'fox, and the littte fellows were gone' in. a flash, All was still; but from A couple. of holes there could be seen a moment later et small pointed nose and sharp eyes curioue to know the danger. The moment I moved from my position I was seep and all vanished. :Examining the den I found a number of holes for fully fifty feet up the hill. The path had been made by the young foxes, and riel doubt was an ideal plaY- ground, At the feet of the hill was a much larger entrance to the den, At the mouth of this entrance was perfectelittee of refuse, arrimig which I noticed wings of ducks; turkeys, geese, chickens, crows, grouse, and other email .birds, also feet of. small • Pins and lambs, fur of hares, wood- chucks, end muskrats, as well as re- fuse from a slaughter house fully two miles..distant. This fox den was about one-quarter of a, mile from the buildings of 'a farmer of • thy acquaintance. I called at his place and Made inquiry regarding missing fowl, ete.„and was Assured by all the family that their fowl, were Dev- er molested by foxes, and that these marauders always Went some dis. tanceto steal fowl. • Inquiry revealed ,the • fact that fanners. two. And three miles 'distant werecontributing their share of fowl toward • the keep of the fox fernilir. • However, in the course of a few Months. these losses would be fully repaid.. ' Foxes are great mousers. During the twilight home, morning and evening, they Maybe seen in the grain fields hunting small ro- dent that would make farming al- most impossible were it not for the ttreless energy ofthe foxes in hunt- ing * and destroying thein. Ne doubt' this great seely of food during the tumiteer and autumn months ac- counts for ,the largo • .nuienbers of foxes always to • be ' found in farm- ing districts. , Boating with a friend one evening on the Nottawsaga River, we were watching a couple of flocks of young wild ducks whieh with the' mother ducks swath toward us. This action on the part of the ducks surprised us as wehad always notieed young duck- lings make to the shore or hide in weeds. My friend noticed an swimming in the water; we went' af- ter it, e few strokes of our paddles ' brought us close enough to see it was a red fox that scranibled up the bank into the dense growth of ferns, At the same moment we saw another fox standing in: the weeds watching the ducks and ourselves. Then was re- vealed to us another of the fee's cun- ning trieks. One fox had gone into the water and was endeavoring to drive the mother ducks and helpless young to the shore where his oonfed: crate was ready to pounce upon thein. We. allowed our leoat to drift dowel stream sorne distence. The ducks fol. lowed us for a time, then went past us and disappeared down stream. The foxes appeared cm the banks again, took a short look at tis and went their way. My friend's only comment %MS: "The rogues! I wonder would they have divided the..spoil?" On another occasion I' joined a party of four to go fishing on the fiv- er at a point near stet Georgian Bay. Bath had fallen heavily during the early mornirig hours, settling the duet on the sand cliffs along the rivet, thousands of dig swallows were fly- ing around and in and out of their nests in boles along the top of sand cliffs. Out attention was drawn to over a dozen of those nests that had been dug out and destroyed since the earn cif the morning. Going on shore we found dozens of fresh fox tracks leading up the banks to the perpeto dicular face of cliff. At this tenet, the fox was still about nine feat be- low the nests of the swallows, and here was where he showed his cuto aing by commencing to seratch the land down making a small mound, 'ems raising himself up and at die eatne time undermining elle nests, the Contents no doubt they devoured with relish. -Mark Robinson io Sat. ado)).

The remark was made off hand with no desire to offend the religious eon- e iotione of anyone, but -with a, view to helping his cheats. An evening paper, however, being short of a. sub- ject took it up editorially, and ad- minietered a cestigation to Mr. O'Donogleue for speaking disrespect- fully' about the Army. The episode was apparently forgot- ten by the time that the elections of 1908' came oa and Mr. O'Donoghue found himself a candidate, matting a house-to-house canvass in South To. ronto, in which the electorate is an inoet without exception poor. Then he thund that the casual remarks thoughtlessly made in the P.olice Court had proven veritable dragon's teeth end heel roused up a host of enemies.

A whole army of messengers started in to turn the apartments inside out Cupboards were rifled, drawers were reereacked, but no aign of the hat, The very consitution was quivering, as there is no precedent on reeord of any Speaker opening the daily sit- tings a the. Coatroom without his traditional headge,ar. The crisis was SO grave that even the famous British North American Aet on a dusty shelf in the library stirred uneasily inside its vellum bindings. Up. in the clock tower, Big Ben boned the hour of three.
