(By Uncle Joe) THE LOST HUNTERS-

It was in 1883 that Peter Fraser and Nathan Squires set out on a hunting expedition from Bangor to Int 65. The distance, roughly, was forty-five or fifty miles, not a great journey for men who were accustomed to travelling almost every day on foot.

Their route of travel took them across country via Riverfon, Lorne Valley, York, North River and Kingston, reaching the great 65 forest shortly after passing through the last mentioned village.

Both men had made the trip be- fore, hut not in the month of January. They took with them their guns, two clogs and enough food to last a few days. Extra supplies, so they lind reckoned, only would retard their progress: and they wniltcd this to be a record-breaking trip.

The men left Bangor at 7:15 in the morning of January 2i. Thel weather was quite cold and a light} snow covered the ground. The go- ing was good anri they reached the fringo of the forest about nine o'clock that evening.

On January 22, a great storm began and the keen frost pene- trated through the crude brush camp they hurriedly had made the night of their arrival. As the day advanced. the storm increased in its fury, driving before it a smoth- ering mass of whirling snowflakes which soon covered the ground to a. great depth.

Wife Can End " Husband's Sltelne Of Her By Self-Improvement-

.._,______. _

DEAR MISS DIX: Two yesrs ago I married a clever and ambitious man and, although he loves me ‘and is good to me. -I can see at time; that he is ashamed of me because I do not know what to say to people

taln, but I simply can't do it because I don't know how.

I want to be a help to my husband. instead of a miilstone around his neck. Can you give me any ad. vice as to what I should do? ‘

A WIFE WHO IS A DRAWBACK

ANSWER: You are wise to realize that the most devastating emotion a husband can feel for his wife is for him to be ashamed of'her. It will klll his lovg quicker than anything else on earth, for it touches his vanity to the raw. She represents his taste, his judgment. Sh; bears hi name and is part of himself. and he cannot endure for other women to smile covertly st. her gaucheries or life their eyebrows u her appearance. '

So. my dear lady, it is time for you to get busy. Have somebody who speaks beautiful English teach you how to talk. Get her to cor- rect your grammar, your pronunciation, and to teach you the patter of the duy, for it is just a§.bad to be too precise and sfilled as it is lo be too unconventional in your speech.

READ NEWSPAPERS, MAGAZINES

Next read the newspapers and the magazines so that you can keep up with current events. Read books. Join a literary club in which good books are read aloud and discussed. _Apply yourself to learning what‘: going on in the world‘ and before very long you will be able i0 carry‘ on an intelligent conversation with anyone.
