The present prices of Raw Furs as

compared with the' prices of a few years ago. make pleasant reading for the old trapper and fur collector, but to the teaderfoot in the Fur Game it seems like an impose-lbile story, and if the “old timers" didn't

know ge facts to be true, they would say. " ell it to the marines," says Mr. A. B. Shubert, President of A. B. Shubel-t, Inc., Chicago, U. S. A., the largest House in the world deal- ing excluslvaiy in American Raw Furs. Why it was only a. few yeofra ago that one could buy all the Musk- rats _in Western Canada at 6c apiece' and th¢o'=s’old as low as ic. Winter and Spring collections last season brought 40c. to 500. The entire col- lection of Northwest Skunk could be bought at $1.00 to $1.50 for No. 1 large prime Black. New they sell at $5.00 to $0.00. The best Lynx solid in C. M. Lampson & Co.'s sale in London; England. at‘ $3.50. Last sea- son $12.00 to $15.00 was paid for them. Marten that are now worth $6.00 sold for $2.00. The best dark Fisher that North America ever pro- duced could , be bought for $10.00. Last season $50.00 was paid for ' the large dark skins. The beet collection of Red Fo_x.w_as sold for $2.00 aver- age. Today the same collection of Red Fox would bring $8.00 to $10.00. White' Weasel we paid nothing for he- cause there was no market for them. 'i‘oday,they bring 75c. to $1150. Ot- ter, one could buy the-best the earth produced at $5.00 and $6.00. Today

LOVE FINDS A WAV.

A great novelist tells of a child that

wandered away from her home. Every night when it grew dark s candle was set in the window, to show the lost one, if ever she crept back repentant, that love's place was kept for her within. The Bible seems to me like al great palace standing in the centre of a dark world. It has a thousand win- dows; and in every onet of them a bright iight shines, to tell earth’s lost ones of a homo where they will find a ,welcome if they but come to its door.

“I heard the voice of Jesus say,

‘Come unto me and rest!

Lay down thou weary one. lay down

T-hy head upon my breast,'

I came to Jesus as I was, _

Weary, and wom, and sad; I found in him s resting place, ,And he has made me glad.

I heard the voice of Jesus say,

‘Behold, I freely givo_

The living water; thirsty one,

Stoop down and dri-nk. and

I came to Jesus and I drank

Of that life-giving stream;

live.'

from_my observations in a very fewbrief visits-»to'd)um- n_iers1de.-. The' first reason that would occur to one,-who; *like myself, has always lived in the country, ten'-or more miles _from railways and stores, is the convenience of shopping and traveling- -For no one who has always been used to those things can appreciate them as well-as those, who'in’tli'e winter season, at least; 'never see a train and almost newer see a steamer.

be it ever so modest a one, than to have rentto pay'-al ways. _

There are so_many_ chances for boys and girls to ‘et

ahead ina busy little _city like Summerside, too, that for .that_reason alone I would like to locate there if it were possgile _for me_to do so. I have heard Summerside coni- pare with a muchempre pretentious town to the dis'li8"-’ vantage of the latter, by more than one person.

Now, having stated only a few of my reasons for

considering Summerside an ideal spot to live in, I will close for fear of over-stepping space limits. _
