We hag no dogs and as our load ‘was rather large and hervy, we were forced 1o aplit it and take part ahead and cachie it and then take the re ~wainder when we broke camp. The trails were wvary bad in places and then agnin there were no tralls at all camd we were forced o ecut our own. This mwade pretiy slow traveling, and from Febraary 4 to until March 15 we traveled about 28 @iles, or about & mile a day, o B - ~ buring the winter it 18 a vers com. mon sight to see A prospectnr along the trails in Canada.

Last or a Vanished Race

“Strongback,” Once King of Detroit - Dockwallopers, Exponent of a " Type That Has. Gone.

Last of -his race is “Strongback.,”

reminder of the davs when dockwallopers were a vastly different class from the industrious, peaceable men now employed aleng the water front. There isn't a man who has been identified with shipping interests in Detroit for any length of time who doesn't know “Strongdback.” And a still swmaller number whose memories ruu back to the time when he first made his appearance on the docks. John Droback is his name, but because of prodigious strength when in his prime he acquired the sobriquet of “Strongback,” which has clung to him ever since. He admits having worked on the docks for 40 years, and no one essays to dispute his claim, he having been a familiar figure when the first of the present generation of marine men arrived on the scene Gl

a forest fire on Lake Kawakanika Forest fires are started, sometines by carelesencss and | gometimes on pur pose. This particular Sredbarned all around this lake and fnaily burned Haell out in a swamp. There wers a number .of bad firex on lake Obus kong, there being five in one day. A number of men have lost all their be longings In these fired. The fames travel o guickly they are very dan gerous, | i : A favorite way of travel between Latchford and Elk lake during the sulmither wonths sby steamer. The Irip ts about forty five miles and takes nine bhours, There are mountsin chutes, flat rapids apd other rapids between Kik luke and latchford and as the boats do not run them, there has to be a boat at each portage, (o make connections. The engines on the boais are all wood burncts and run quite siow, so it makes the trip rather Urewome. i It was in 1679 that Charles 11 gave 1o his cousin Prince Rupert—the bold but pone too successful cavalier of the civil war—the vxclusive right to trade with the Indlans in that great streteh of country whose rivers ran down to Hudson's bay, . The Hudsons Hay Company was I'!;;rnwd by Pritce Ru pert and his a’i:s'.m,wmws, who expioited the concession, and its. Bistory for nearly twoandahalf centuries has been one of astonishing boldness and success. Furs were the ecompany’s main-concern in its early davs Its agents, established in factories or forts, traded with the Indian hunters, coilected the pelts. - and dispatched thém by the inland waterways on the long and perilous route to the coast for transmission to England Even to thiz day the company s fur trade 8 being carrled on in like manner, though in more portherly reglons, for the settlement of population in the south has driven the furbtearing ani mals to the primacyal solitudes bevond. in unbroken sequence for aboutl a cen tury the company's fleet has salled from Edmonton down the Athabasca into and on down the Great Mackentie river to the Arctic ocean, return ing In the autumn with the furs taken ten months before. ~ Reminded Him of Home. A man whose bovhood bad been spent within a stone's throw of Rea con hill and that mighty edifice in which the Commonwealth of Massa chusetts is yearly saved, was recently summoned to admire his wife's pnew hat. Round and steep and brilliant ly yellow it was—the “very latest” cabriolet. The man looked at It long and thoughtfully, and then, ‘“Thar takes me back,” he breathed. -~ “What do you mean?' {nquired his puzzled wife, who had been prepared for sarcasms, but not sighs . © “Why, the hat's the living image of the dome of the Bostop statehouse—if you'd only had it just a little bigger!™ And as he made his escape she heard him bhumming: “How dear to my heart are the scenes of my childhood!™ e

In his earlier days “Strongback” performed several feats, once saving a life by plunging into the river, and again preventing a disastrous conflagration in the D. & C. warehous-s. Although only a shadow of his former self, he still retains much of bhis strength, and few would care to mix things with him=Detroit Free Press.

Origin of Football.

Football is a game whaose origin dates back to the Danisn tnvasion of England. In the year 982 the citizens of Chester captured a Dane and after beheading him kicked his head about the city for sport, which proved se attractive that it was repeated when ever the head of an enemy couii be got. In after times, as it was not pos sible always to obtain a man’s head for the purpose of entertainment, the shoemakers of the city were bound by their charter to provide “a balle of leather called a footballe, of tbe valus of feur shillinges.” e

4. There was danger that the Roman government might interfere and deprive a turbulent city of its greatly prized. liberties, Thus was peace and quiet restored.

The signs of these times meant that it was best for Paul to leave immediately for another field of labor, while Ephesus was settling down into quiet peace, and the church continued to grow in character and numbers. Therefore Paul bade the beloved church good-by and “departed for to go into Macedonia” (Acts 20: 1),

Accepting Our Crosses.

We may often think that if only we are trying to be on God's side we have a right to be exempted from crosses, or at least, from spiritual temptations, from coldness in prayer, and from evil imaginations. Why should we think so? God's love does not exempt us, any more than it did Christ, from trials and sorrow. “Great are the troubles of the righteous; but the Lord delivereth him out of all.” The shadow of the cross we must expect to fall on those nearest and dearest to him. s

A GERMAN ON NEW YORK

{n a letter from New York about Fifth avenue n vorrespondent telis in the Berliner Tsageblatt many things which would surprise residents of that thoroughfare. In the introductory sentence the writer says that the New Yorker has so little time that he us ually speaks of the street as “the Fifth,” never as Fifth avenue. The young women, according to the writer, parade up and down Fifth avenue unchaperoned, while some, also unattended, drive. The fathers, grandiathers. brothers and uncles are too busy hunting dollars. The women, he says, are pretty, but without figure. After paying a high tribute to the fine appearance of young girls in Fifth avenue the correspondent declares that the impression made by them con a stranger is not favorable, because of their actions, and- one is usually surprised to learn that they are the daughters of respectable parents. He adds: "“Woe to him who marries one of the flowers of ‘the Fifth!" ke will bave a valuable orna-

The little girl, whose age is about 12, wanted for a long time a baby bfotker or sister. When she told her father of her wish, he said: “You had better keep your eyes open, and some day perhaps you cdn steal one.” Well, { the 12-year-old miss took bim at his word. She kepta very alert eye on all the babiea she fell in with, and one day last week she saw one~ in a baby carriage outside some smail New York shop. She took the baby and ran away with it, but her posséssion of Lier prize soon'came to an end, for the baby's mother, faiing an empty carriage when sheleft the store, ap - pealed to the policé, and the police. !wer'e equal to the task of restoring the baby to its pareat M
