The cat is the property- of Doctor Sutoris, a woman dentist, who found it when quite young starving on one ���������off' the docfes. Sbe bas trained it in such a rp- tnarkable degree that the animal shows almost human intelligence. A number of witnesses confirm Doctor Sutoris' statements, that Peter distinctly utters the German words tor Anna-, - hurrah, more, Helena, no. "enough. Asa crowning wonder, it is deelare.i that the cat, employing th������ moncsy- llable "lah," sings in tune the melodies of three German popular son;-".?. and that the words she utters are spoken with marvelous appropriateness to the occasion. In Markel'.Ybvyns of Morocco Paris.i���������a most revolting ' picture is painted.by a correspondent ot the Matin of the slave traffic in Morocco Although the nefarious trade in human merchandise, as practiced by the corsairs and dhow masters of the ,1-African seas has long been stamped jout, it still appears to flourish in the (land of Moore. j Writing from Marrakesh, which ts stated to be the canter of this traffic, the correspondent, a French woman doctor, says: ' The slaves conveyed by caravans from the Sus and Tafilet regions are quickly sold, either publicly in the market at Marrakesh or clandestinely. Sales take place in broad daylight. Penned in boxes running around a covered gallery, which serves as a market square in rainy weather, the unfortunate human cattle are exposed for sale three times a week. Little by little the square fills with potential purchasers. When all is ready the dellais. or auctioneers, arrive on the scene, and with solemn prayer, open., the market. Prayers over, each dellal proceeds to sort out his proper lot of slaves. He then replaces their miserable rags by a more decent attire, and followed close at his heels by the groups or men, women and children, he walks around the market place crying the value of his wares. Intending purchasers now and again stop the perambulation and leisurely examine the teeth, the hair and the skin and limbs of the human animal which may have attracted their attention. The bargain being closed, the sale- is duly attested before the adouts or notaries, line price varies according to the sex, r.ge and qualities of the slave. A Marriage of Convenience , ? One' of Mrs. Hugh Fraser's stories Human ^Beings'Auctioned, as of Old i relates to a peasant at Lesjahn, the hoine of Mrs. Eraser's sister, Frau von Rabe. The man's wife had died. She was burled with every mark of sympathy, and nothing was 'left undone to comfort the disconsolate widower. On the evening of the day of the funeral he presented himself at the house and asked to see Prau von Rabe, saying that he had a favor to ask. Instantly he was ushered in. Frau von Rabe begged him to state his wishes. Was there anything she could Co to lessen his affliction? Gracious lady, the truth is, he began, turning his hat nervously round in his fingers. I have come to ask let-e to get married again. You see��������� But, good gracious! exclaimed his mistress. Of course you may when the time comes.

A yoiing man while riding through the timber country at Wiiluug during a recent storm had a remarkable es cape from death in peculiar circum stances. A large tree directly. in front of hira was struck by lightning and split in halves. The horse he was riding, becoming terrified, started to plunge through the gap between the halves of the tree. At that moment the halves came together v. lth a snap like a rabbit trap, and crushed off a lenjgth of the horse's tail, which can still be seen protruding from the tree.

The ark c the, covenant was to preserve the tables, of testimony. These are the three arks of Scripture and all suggestive- of our Lord Jesus Christ, in whom alone there is safety.

The larger crops in 1909 and 1910 had to replenish depleted stocks, and provide for the natural increase in wheat requirements, and then the crop of 1911 while The sinner must receive Christ or truly come to Him and take refuge in Him. God Himself and He alone was the architect of Noah's ark and of Moses' tabernacle and of the tero������ SSy������������ ^fVi T ha" th+? CTOPS 0t' Pie of Solomon. They had only to the two previous years in the aggregate, saw a large shortage in o.*her kinds of grains besides potatoes and root crops, In the United States and in Europe, and there is no doubt that wheat had to be used in large quantities in place of other food stuffs. Tblis brings us to the 1912 crop, the largest 011 record, and It is accompanied by abundant yields of al'. othor crops, especially on the American continent both North and South. Wo believe reasonably higher prices would be for the general benefit, and we \ Would like to see thom, but the study ' and consideration of these things do not Beom to give good grounds for the expectation of any important advance, except It comes from lessening crop prospects later on. The most we can hope for at present Is that values may not recede much froni/ present level, and we don't, think they will. go by the plan. Salvation is of the Lord from start to finish, and the only thing we can do and that God asks of us is accept what He has provided without cjuestion. Notice the great invitation in chapter vii^ 1: Come thou and all thy house into the ark. The Lord must therefore havo been the first in the ark, and then He call* ed Noah and his family to come to Him. He said concerning Israel: I brought you unto Myself (Ex. xlx, 4), and His word to us is ever: Come unto Mo (Matt, ix, 28). Make a study of His "comos" from hero to Rov. xxii, 17.

' ������ ���������Mi'S B Lamberton Editor aud Ma linger, s W The Leading \ Hotel of the Fruit Belt We contradict most emphatically the statement which appears elsewhere iu this issue in regard to the Review's refusal to publish a report of the Farmer-' Institute's delegate to Victoria. The Review has not been asked as yet to publish the Delegate's report of the Conveutiou held at Victoria Indeed we are on the contrary very anxious to have this report and feel very much hurt that the Delegate has qot seen fit to present us with his report for publication purpoaes.The fact is, that the Delegate in question, Mr. Edmond^ou, came into our office and asked to have a letter published. No Editor can answer yes or uo tosuch a question until that letter has been submitted-for consideration. If the subject is a proper one and the language used is decent and intelligible) no Editor we thiuk would deny the u?e oi his column'. But no letter was submitted to us for con������������������.ideratio.i. in the past Mr. Edmondson has had lileal use of the columns of this paper. His letters have dealt principally, almost exclusively; with the subject of municipalization. We are unable fo-; reasons given below to entertain anymore articles from his, p:n on thi- subject. Failing any information from this gen.' tleman as to the subject matter of his letter, we naturally inferred* that it dealt with the municipality question, and hisj request was therefore refused. So much for the facts relative; to this incident.

The Bird Woman laughed. -"You can't tell.-, me anything about, that." she said. "1 once entered a city' school straight from .the country.- My dress was brown calico and my shoes were quite heavy? What is your name, my girl?" '.. ������������������Elnora; Comstock." answered Elnora.

She-laughingly left the room and Elnora sat thinking, until she remembered how hungry she was. so she ate the food, drank the hot chocolate and began the process of getting a grip on herself. Then the Bird Woman came back and showed Elnora a long printed slip giving a list of graduated prices for moths, butterflies and dragon flies. "Oh. do you want them?" esulted Elnora. "1 have a few and 1 can get more by the thousand, with every color in the world on their wings." "Yes," said tbe Bird Woman, "I will buy tbem. also the big moth caterpillars that are creeping everywhere now, and the cocoons that they will spin Just about this time. 1 have a sneaking impressiofr that tbe mystery, wonder aud the urge of their pure beauty are going to force me to picture and paint our moths and pot them into a book for ail the world to see and know.

"Great gray ones with reddish markings, ptilo bUio, green, yollow with lavender nnd red and yellow." "Whnt do you mean by 'red and yellow?'" ashed the Bird Woman bo quickly that the girl iilmoHt Jumped. "Not exactly red." explained Elnorn,' with tremulous voice. "A reddlHli, yel-' lowlsli brown, with canary colored spotn nud gray linen on their wings," "How ninny of them?" It was tho finmo 'illicit question. "Well.

Not fi fourth of them could bo moved thnt night, and it was almost dark when the Inst box was closed, the list figured and Into Elnora's trembling Augers were paid $50.10.

It was no one's affair how lonely the previous day had been, or how the endless hours of tbe present would drag. "What Is she doing in such a rush?" Now was his chance), "She's making a dress for Elnora," answered Wesley. He saw Mrs. Com- stock's form straighten, and her face harden, so be continued hastily., "Vou' see Elnora has been helping us at harvest time, butchering, and wltb unexpected visitors for years. We've made out tbat she's saved us u considerable sum. aud as she wouldn't ever touch any pay for anything we Just went to town and got a few clothes we thought would fix her up a little for the high school. We want to get a dress done today mighty bad. but Margaret is slow about sewing, and she uever can finish alone, so I came for you." "And it's such a simple little matter, so dead easy; and all so between old friends like, that you can't look above . your boots while you explain it," sneer-- ed Mrs. Comstock. "Wesley Sinton, what put the idea into your bead that Elnora would take things bought with, money when she wouldn't take the money?" Then Sin ton's eyes came up straight- iy- ' . ; . "Finding her on the trail last night sobbing as bard as I ever saw any one" at a funeral. She wasn't complaining at all. but she's come to me all her life with her little burts, and sbe couldn't hide how she'd been laughed at. twitted and run face to face against the fact that there was books and tuition unexpected, and nothing wil! ever make me believe you didn't know that, Kate Comstock."* "If any doubts are troubling you oa thnt subieet. sure I knew it! She was' so anxi mm to try the world 1 thought I'd just iet her take a few knocks and see how she liked it." "As if she'd ever taken anything but knocks all her life!" cried Wesley Sinton. "Kate Comstock, you are a heartless, selfish woman, you've never allowed Elnora any real love in her lite. If ever she finds out that thing you'll lose her, and it will serve you right." "She kuows it now." said Mrs. Comstock icily, "and she'll be home tonight ��������� just as usual." "Well, you are a brave woman if you dared put a girl of Elnora's make through what she suffered yesterday and will suffer again today and let her know you did it on purpose. 1 admire your nerve.

"You���������you wouldn't!" gasped Mrs. Comstock. ��������� .. ��������� "1 won't need to. Kate!" said Sinton, his beart softening the instant the bard words wei^e said. but you do love Binora! You can't help it! You must see how she needs things. Come, help us fix them ffi^d be friends. Maggie and I couldn't live without her. and you couldn't either. You've got to love such a fine girl as she is. Let it show a little!" "You can hardly expect me to love her," said Mrs. Comstock coldly.

"You won't come and help Maggie with the dress?" E'er answer Mrs. Comstock looked about swiftly for some object on wbicb to iay her hands.? Knowing.her temper, Wesley Sinton left with all the haste consistent with dignity. But he did not go jaome. He crossed a fieyi nud in an hour brought another neighbor who was skillful witb her needle. With sinking heart Margaret saw them coming.
