And there' was Mrs , Robin; twirling about, shaping 'her• nest, and looking at me with bright eyes as :ouch as to say, "You see, I won out.!" Well, I gave up. >= The robin had. won. It is going to be a nuisance. It will be impossible to raise that lulus dow until that little nest's occupant's are rearedand ready to fly: I don't' know how 1 shall be able to enjoy'tny Sunday morning sleep with a nestful of hungry little robins chirping away within two feet of my' head, not to speak of other mornings, for I have no' doubt the Robin family are in the. habit of rising earlier than I any morning. I do hope this particular pair are thrifty and will prove good providers., But whatever the. conse- quences, there the matter rests present. Somebody was consoling me with the information that robins come back 'year after year, rep air last year's nests and occupy, them sea- son after season] They rear more. than one brood in the season, too. I may have a good chance to study the .habits of • robins before the sum- mer is over.

It's for You to Say -- 5, - when a cheque for $1O,000 is to be delivered to you! Cheques for $10,000 issued to persons of average means are becoming more common. It's not so hard to accumulate $10,000 either—if you go about it in the right way. The old way was to put by $100 each six months and let it accumulate at 5% compound interest— 'then in twenty-five years you would have almost $10,000—but you know how hard it is to save cash regularly when there are so many attractive ways in which to spend it. Moreover, if you 'are able to save $100 each six months, with ordinary investments you must always take the risk of losing it. Be surd you— Have Something to Show for the Money You Earn! Many people have adopted a certain Canada Life plan because it makes the saving of money attrac- tive, systematic and profitable. By this plan you can arrange that any sum of money you would like to have, will be delivered to you . in cash, at any age you desire. You can be certain' that $2,000; $5,000; $10,000 or more will be paid to you when you reach the age of retire- ment—from 60 to 65—or to anyone you may name if you should die before your retirement fund is completed. • i to �Qorma,10,1A144' t ith*•' tue attaG., e411151 a Milch OCt 1))5't 'tete 1SrEOY�atIGTr soca ottob1 at Dear Sirt—.
