WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 9. "A NEW WHITE pace. FE {Y Dmp---- IE Various Life Marks Seen By An Ob servant Man On the Frst Snow. When nature turns the first' white page of winter for the record of her infinite activities her children are alert and ready to inscribe the varied stories of their gporeunal exploits and meanderings. ere the new snow slopes down in a cold, clean sheet to the curve of a dunying stream a muskrat began, the inscription with. out waiting for'the guiding illumina- tion of day. His babylike feet have left a firm and regular double track of distinct impressions in the snow, and between these runs the groove of his snakelike tail. The new snow pre- serves the record of his early excur- sion, even to the crystal that fell from his close fur as he left the water. He walked along the bank away from the stream for a short dis- tance, sat up to look about over the newly whitened landscape,, made a few distinct impressions in the snow with his fore feet as if curious about the new covering the world had put on, and then returned by a longer route, taking the water oy, to where he had emerged. There dig- nity and deliberation in the trail of the muskrat, writes Mr. 8. T. Woods, in The Globe. Beyond the high bank is a record so small and faint as to indicate help- less weakness, almost lost in the broad white expanse. A field mouse with short, hasty steps nfade his la- borious way for a few feet over the snow ahd disappeared under a small drift that concealed his further course. How big and impassable the he floundered more than his depth in the little groove, while his tiny feet sank interminable distances in the shallow snow! : In winter he ma commit serious depredations by gird- ling fruit and other trees under the snow, but his little track seems. so helpless on the new page that he is almost forgiven in advance. A vag- rat cat has been abroad, and her round paws have melted their regu lar impressions deeply and distinctly into the snow. This track moves along in a sheltering furrow and soon shows the record of a stealthy crouch before a spring. A few feet away some slaty grey feathers gomplete the story. Jun- coes have a potoe all about the place, and the long springing strides of the swift rush lead to where one has been captured by the stalking enemy. The feathers are fragments from a tragedy. Beside the naked woods the trail of a leaping red squirrel has a much more cheerful aspect. He bounded along not in haste, but in joy, his b ly separated hind feet over- reaching 'the close twin marks of his fore feet at every spring. From one large tree to another he'makes his way, seeming to inspectjeach ' and hurry along. At the foot of a black oak the trail ends, showing that the happy squirrel chose a more athletic path among the branches. In the closer woods the tracks of @ dog are scattered about with an ir regularity suggesting humen influ ences. Pure, doubling, crossing, and recrossing, his tracks Yaad about in bewildering uncertainty. The cause of all the excitethent is 'disclosed by the clear, quadruple track of a cotton- tail beside a small viburnum bush. The long leaps that threw the dog off the scent make this trail difficult to follow. Cottontail was evidently in a hurry, judging by his long irregular bounds, but his separated hind feet oint his direction. Where the shrub- P= is more open the dog finds his trail again, and both lead away to- ward the dark green cedars. Near a broken field a crow has stalked thoughtfully, etching his 'bold records along the white expanse. The scales of a pine cone scattered by a squirrel are littered about on the'fresh snow. The new page is marked everywhere, but from the low, uncertain clouds the north wind scatters a feathery spray of snow as if to efface the re- cords of nature's handiwork and pre- serve the open expanse in its virgin whiteness. A Changed Man. A man who, after being addicted to drink, had taken the pledge, was persuaded to attend ambulance classes. The Bishop of London, who told the stord a a meeting recently, soon afterwards called on the man's wife and asked her how her husband was. '""He's a 'changed man, sir," said the wife. "Instead of spending his evenings in the public-house, he stops at home erory ight and ban- dages the cat? h%s Constant Backaches I Cure Quickly My remedy goes right to the spot It gives quick results because it re- moves the conlitions that make vour back ache and drag. x Bearing down. pains, backache and Iragey limbs are all caused by kidney trouble.
