But .* we set our selves In fancy to that early :ask, we see at once how the Industrial condi tions to be dealt with at that time simplified the domesday valuation to very little more than an enumeration. Acres differed little, excepe in their power to yield crops; the social incre ment of value was almost negligible. Today we have vast aggregates of property brought together and devoted as a whole to single uses. Except as wn aggregate and tor the particular ase which the property as it whole serves, the several parts have relative ly little value.—Engineer Magazine. Last Stand of the Simple Life. The south for years was. rich bunt ing ground for the lover of the pictur esque, but changes both numerous and rapid have occurred there in recent years. The old negro types of the cotton fields are no more The loe cabins, the pine groves, even the state ly plantation mansions, recalling the flowery days "befo" de wah," are pass ing away. Fortunately for those who enjoy seeing life as it is lived where there is a real attachment to the soil, the FTencb section of Caradn is left ua. Here along the lower Si.. Law rence river one may find conditions exactly as they were a century ago. Here the "one-boss shay," the pride of colonial days, la making its last stand. In the Balds women may be seen cutting grain with sickles then which there la no implement more I primitive. The people of the ham leu live and work as did their great crgudparenu.

The famous "kitchen middens" of primitive times prove by their vast heaps of shells that the oyster was a prehistoric ar ticle of diet. And all through the his toric ages this prince of bivalves has appealed to the appetite and taste Of mankind. The Romans when they were masters of the world were them selves mastered by the oyster, their indulgence in it being one of the amusing chapters in gastronomic his tory. And in the modern dietetic world the oyster holds a lofty place. It has a position all its own; it can not be imitated nor displaced; it can be eaten raw, or it can be cooked in many ways, and the lovers of good eating never seem to tire of it—Les lie’s Weekly.

They live on small animals, lizards; opos sums, and even young lambs, as well L DOGS Hkjc lau.. -■ . Though Long Periods .via.

One day, upon meeting Major Fair on the road, she ran forward, rec agnizing him and, showing great d< light in her happy doggy way, ; though 6he had not seen him for ov three years. oorae years later (wnen tne dog w£ nine years or age) I went into a loca barber's shop and was surprised to se and hear her excitedly showing f ;ru of meeting a friend which she did )• yelping ar.d jumping upon the man knee and trying to !ck Lis face Th man tuned out to be Major Fair coachman, who had bro..
