AVith the passage of time the old racial and religious animosities between Ontario ami Qm-bec have largely disappeared, while the development of man- ufiieiurliig in both Pro. hues, ami the shifting of tbe main agricultural activity and proihinion to Pie newer Western Provinces lias served to create a greater unii.v of sentiment in regard lo tariffs and nalional policies in ihe Mast, although marked differences still exist between the central Provinces ami lhe Alariiitncs.

He -at lo'nce conceived the idea of;uniting these two metals and using this as a substitute for making articles which hitherto liad been made of sterling silver only. He seeriis to have specialized in making small-articles such as buckles, buttons, snuff-boxes and patch-boxes, some of which were only half an inch in diameter.

I crept up to the first'-one I saw, anxious to get a photograph, and while looking into my.camejra almost trod upon It, so tame' wa3 lit. While waiting for it to turn, sideways, a-blg i*qalo crawled' botween iny feet and nodded frantically to a scarlet:throated female sunning herself on a bit of lava. He crept a littlo nearer, nodded again, whereupon the lady lizard rose aa high as possible upon all four legs, making them look like straight little slicks, arched her body, blew herself tip with air until she lost all semblance to a lizard, and, turning her head slowly, spat upon her admirer. He. turned, nonchalantly caught a' fly, and;sadly made his way elsewhere. Never have I seen such a sudden transformation or a more unmistakable indication of disposition.
