This bush is scarcely half a mile from the Ri- deau River, and it 'was undoubtedly the intention to carry the boat to the river when completed.

London society folk are much amused at a recent misadventure of Lord New- ton-Butler, who is a dignifigd man. of rather stiff carriage and who is himself responsible for the story. It .was a musical at-home in Bei- gravia, to which Lord Butler was inyit- ed, and, it being a rainy night, he wore a felt hat and a long waterproof coat over his evening dress. The family but- ler opened the door to him, looked puz- zled for a moment, and tfien asked ten- tatively, "Name, please?" "Lord Newtén-Butler," ply. "Oh, Lord Newton's butler, are you? Come along, old chap, and have a drop of something in the housekeepers room. They've got a job lot upstairs to-night and your master ain't come yet, If you're looking for him." "With pleasure," sald his Lordship, was the re- A certain London corn ehandler had just engaged an assistant, who hailed from a small village near Leeds. He was not remarkable for - his intelli- gence. His friends, realizing thls de- ficteney, had evidently warned him against being caught by the sharp London people who would "be certain to try and take a rise out of him. Full of this resolve not to be "caught, he began his duties. A customer entered the shop, "I want some bird seed, please," he said. The assistant grinned. The customer repeatéd his request, and the knowing villager spluttered with suppressed merriment. The customer, not ° quite knowing what to make of this extraordinary display, asked him in somewhat fore- ible language what was the matter. "It's no hixe," answered the verdant one, "tha knows ta' cannot eatch me, 1 know I do." - "Know what?" asked the customer "Birds groas from eggs, not seed!"
