claims he has alienated his wife's nf

thing ho never possessed. One think i
certain, a man who would set a money'
value on his wife's affections, imaixiuan
or otherwise, should be given a ducking,
or whipped in public until he had better
sense and more decency. And those who

John Mackenzie, superintendent in

having been erected that will deliver
freight from boat to train and vice versa'

Bchomo devised that it is expected that
the entiro cost of transfer will not ex
ceed 2 cents per ton. This handling
apparatus bus been specially constiueted
for the grain trade but can be used on
all classes of freight. Speaking of the

between two birds, who have choeon as
their place of abode the aims of a tele
phone pole, and tho world in general.
The lighting proclivities of the birds was
first apparent when, annoyed by th-
email boys, who insisted on throwing
stones at their nest, the maternal
ancoetor of the wee ones, pallied forth
and ewooped down on a kid with a straw
hat on, arid as the story book would say,
almost "nipped otf hie nose." The
aforesaid boy took to his heola and the
rocky life of the birds cea9ed. The next
day, however, another boy passed wear-ing-a
straw hat, and to his surprise, he
waB attacked hv the enraged bird,
who followed him until he was out of
that rejion. Tht next difficulty which
beset them was when one of their young
decided to try his wings and leave the
parental poie, and in so doinc fell to the
ground. A neighborhood deg soon made
hia appearance anil mercilessly proceeded
to make a meal off of him. Tills was too
much for his fond parents, and in an
instant the yells of the cur could be
heard foi block?, while the hirds attacked
him in a manner (hat would have done
credit to a Boxer. The dog no longer is
seen in hi favorite haunts, and now the
