When Charlis Palmer, a strap ping voung Englishman of family, wealth and postion, was graduated from Oxiord University no doubt he dreamed of achievement, but it is safe to say that he had no idea of winzing renown, wealth, and success by toting giant powder up & steep mountain trail.

Day after day, and week after week, gradually increasing his loads, Palmer acted as a human dray, and development work at the surmmit went on without interrupâ€" tion. It was a close race for the tour men of that "outfit‘‘ between their availmble cash and the grub it would buy, and the day when the vein, exposed in a gully, should be reached and out.

When they got squared away at their job of developing what they bad staked there was work which naturally fell to the hands of each of his associates. But for Palmer, who knew nothing about the fine points of prospecting, stopping. drifiing, or sinking, nt%xere seemed to be rothing he could do unless ho should turn cook. But that was because of his education. The fact that he had a degree from Oxford blinded the syes of all but Palmer to the obrious fact that if they were going to open up the claims they would need to have giant powder and food to do it. Ho looked too much the debonair idler to be assiqgned to the drudging task of Iugging powder up to the others who knew better how to do the acâ€" tnal work of drifting.

MHow great is the production of wine in France is shown by the staâ€" tistics for the year 1911, which were published recently. In this year the total amount of wine produced in the country was 44,885,000 hectoâ€" litresâ€"that is to say, nearly a thousand million gallons! The greater part of this, however, was merely ordinary winc, fewer than thirty million gallons being ever likely to find anything like a place ¢l>! honor in wine merchants‘ celâ€" ars.

The chief vineâ€"growâ€" ing department is the Herault, where 355,000 proprietors own 430,â€" 000 acres; the Rordeaux district has 325,000 acres divided between 64,000 proprietors.

The supplies of some of them, it is true, are nearing exhaustion, but this was not always the case, nor is it likelv, with the steady rise in wood prices, that this will long continue to be thoa case. Mr. E. J. Zavitz, Ontario Foresâ€" try Commissioner, says :â€"‘‘There is at present in the old settled portion of Ontario an aggregate of about 8,500 square miles of farmers‘ woodlands. It is safe to say that there is, in addition to the assessed woodland, another area of 8,500 square miles which is suited only for forest growth. This means that southern Ontario could eventually have over ten million acres of priâ€" vate woodland."‘ Ontario was once a land of valuable hardwoods, and will be so again. Another remarkable thing ilusâ€" trated by this bulletin is the variâ€" ety of uses to which woods, still common in Ontario, may be put. Eim and basswood aro used in thirtyâ€"one industries, and ash is another valuable hardwood with a wide range of uso.

The great advantage of these treatments is that they keep even cheap woods free from decay for from ten to fifteen years Many kinds of wood found in farmers‘ woodlots will last, when used as posts, only four years or thereâ€" abouts; after treatment, such as described, they last twice or three times, even four times, as long. Creosote, which costs in Canada, from ten to twentyâ€"five cents a galâ€" lon, is the bost preservative. When boiling hot creosote is applied libâ€" erally with a brushâ€"& paint brush or whitewash brush, for instanceâ€" to the butts of wellâ€"zeasoned posts from which the bark has been roâ€" moved, it sinks into the wood for a distance of about a quarter of an inch. This should add at least ten years to the life of a post made from & nonâ€"durable wood, %uch as poplar, balsam, fir or apruce. This is not the best method, Eut it is the simplest and, on a small scale, probably the cheapest. _ Other methods require that the posts be kept oovered in tanks of hot creoâ€" sote for a longer or shorter period. Proservatives Prolong Life of Poorâ€" est Woods. As a result of the many inquiries in regard to the preservative treatâ€" ment of fenceâ€"posts, the Forestry Branch, Ottawa, has now issued a circular on this subject which can be had by applying to the Director of Forestry, The various methods described of treating the posts with the preservatives are all illustrated by diagrams, and the apparatus reâ€" quired is simple and costs little. Followed Him About the (Girounds Like a Dog. A seaâ€"lion looks much like a seal, but it is larger, has a longer neck, and holds its head very upright. One of the largest seaâ€"lions ever kept in captivity was once owned by Mr. Carl Hagenbeck, who buys and sells wild animals. _ It weighed nearly a ton, but it was so goodâ€" tempered and amiable that Mr. Hagenbeck‘s father took a great liking to it, fed it himself every day, and made a great pet of it. At last it became so tame that it followed him about the grounds like a dog, stopped when he «topped. and then flopped on again after him in its clumsy way, girinq peculiar little cries from time to time, as if to ask him to stop, or not to walk so fast. "In our home we use Nerviline freâ€" quently. For cold in the chest, pleurâ€" isy, hoarseness, etc., it is simply wonâ€" derful. My husband uses it for rheumâ€" atism, and I often employ it for neuâ€" ralgia and sick headache. Nerviline has so many uses that no mother can afford to be without it." The large family size bottle which sells at 50c., is the most economical; trial size, 25¢. Your storekeeper or druggist sells Nerviline, which is preâ€" pared by the Catarrhozone Co., Bufâ€" falo, N. Y. Besides lengthening the life of the post, the preservative treatâ€" ment also tends to reduce the cost of the posts in another way, for, as choap local woods can be used, the first cost and the cost of transporâ€" tation are usually much lower than for cedar, oak or tamarack. Moreâ€" over, as posts will need to be set less often, the proportionate cost of setting the post will be less. Takâ€" ing into acoount all the items that go to make up the cost of the post, and comparing this with the numâ€" ber of years it will last, it will be found, in the majority of cases, to be much less for treated posts. One afternoon, when a good many people were looking at the seaâ€"lion. Mr. Hagenbeck took some pieces of fish in a basket, and went into the enclosure to feed his pet. He threw one piece of fish at a time, and the seaâ€"lion caught them in his mouth. Each time he caught a piece of fish he would gulp it down hurriedly, and then give one of his peculiar cries, as if begging for more. When he had eaten more than hbalf the basketful, Mr. Hagenbeck thought he had had enough for a meal, and "Bringing up young children has its responsibilities under the best of cirâ€" cumstances," writes Mrs. E. G. Fagan, of Holmes‘ Corners, "but croupy colds add considerable to the worry.

He was very goodâ€"tempered about it, and gulped down his food until the basket was quite empty ; then he went over to his master, as if to ask if that were all.
