WARE - HOUSES! er } ee | $40.00 ; mothers fur their children while teething | # 9 If You Want.the ¢ The Dog’s Mark. | As to barking. there are a great num- ger of different sorts of barks, the mean- wg of each one of which is well known. For example, there is the barking shich at night is meant toca]! master’s attention to the fact that some burglar sr other evildoer is hovering around she premises. When I hear iny Landscer Newfoundland or my splendid St, Ber aard giving warning in this way, I turn gn my other side and do but sleep the sounder, well knowing that no evildoer would dare to enter my premises or even my grounds. Some years ago every house in Twyford was entered by bur- glars except my own. With jimmies they had already opened a lower win- dow of my villa, when they had to fly! The bark of warning has doubtlegs de- scended through long generations from the days when wild dogs hunted in | packs, and it was then as useful in re- calling stragglers as the bugle of a regi- ment. Next there is the bark of joy, when a dog, for instance, meets «gain a kind cnd loving master who may have been absent for a few days. No mistaking this. It is the bark of pleasure and ex- citement. Sometimes my beautiful St. Bernard, Fair Helen oi Troy, mingles a little friendly scolding with this, for after licking my cheeks and ears she backs astern and with her head cocked funnily to one side barks me a lecture. ‘*Why didn’t you take me with you?”’ she seems to say. ‘‘It was cruel, and I’ve been wretched all the time. But I’m happy now. Don’t ever, ever leave your Helen again.’’—Gordon Stables in Our Animal Friends. Forest Fires of Canada. According to Dr. Bell, in The Scot- tish Geographical Magazine, the forest fires of Canada are generally caused by lightning. In the great forest between Alaska and the strait of Bell Isle the portions recently burned are easily recognized by the tenderer green of their foliage from the parts which have been longer spared. The fire rushes along with the speed of a galloping horse. The branches and dead leaves on the ground burn like tinder, and the flames rise to nearly 200 feet. Resinous pine woods burn fastest. One of them extended 160 miles in ten hours. The traces of a fire remain for nearly a cen- tury. Birds and beasts are stifled or burned. Beavers and muskrats, which are amphibious, have a chance of say- ing their lives. After the fire a few trunks of the largest trees are left. Next spring roots begin to sprout and seeds to grow. In 15 or 20 years the soil is covered with poplars, willows, etc., which shelter young firs and other trees. In 50 years the conifers are uppermost, and in 100 the others are dying out be- neath the pine wood. A third of the forest region of Alaska has trees of 50 years old, another third trees of 50 to 100 years and the rest trees over 100 years old. The fire seems to suit the banksian pine, as it opens the pines and sets free the grains. Without fires this species would hardly reproduce itself. Such fires took place even in the pleis- tocene epoch of geology.
