back to the bottom, and crawl back up again.This order is seldom reversed.It is on record that a fly crawled up a window-pane thirty two times, returning each time to the same place.Hens always scratch for food with the sun behind them, the reason being that the rays show up minute particles.A blind hen will pick grain and not iss a kernel, Cats seldom lie with their feet to the fire, and usually lie on the left side.Dogs lie with their forepaws to the fire.A mouse will ignore a food supply sufficiently for a meal, and run great risks to nib- ble at a large supply.Goldfish usually swin around a globe to the right.They can be taught to take a flyout of the hand in six weeks.Sheep spend more time grazing than do cattle an(J horses, and they will eat for 12 I hours out of 24.GLEN

satisfactorily.The requirement that they be made out in a regular way and certified to makes it necessary to return many of them for correction in this regard.THINKS SHERBROOKE AND TOWNSHIPS WILL LOSE PRESTIGE.The sale.of the Eastern Townships Bank to the Canadian Bank of Commerce continues to engage public at tention.The St.Johns News, in last, week\u2019s edition, says editorially : \u201cOur Sherbrooke correspondent in his excellent letter t.o-day comments on the fact that nothing in the past has ever advertised Sherbrooke to the same extent as the Eastern Townships Bank, and probably never will do in the future.Though the latter part of this statement does not admit of absolute proof so far as one is able to judge it may be accepted as substantially correct, and therefore the conclusion is almost inevitable that the absorption of the Eastern Townships Bank will prove a serious loss to the prestige of the chief town in this progressive section of the.province, even to the extent of many persons expressing the conviction that the loss would indirectly counterbalance the direct advantage of the amalgamation.We know for a certainty that in many quarters it has caused deep regret, especially as the stockholders were not afforded an opportunity of expressing an opinion in the question before the deed was done.Has the metropolis of the Townships taken a retrogressive step

be able to support herself.Her desire to have this done was particularly promoted by the fact that there is more than $2,000,000 due her immediately , she said, as the result of a recent sale of a portion of the Pinckney estate, the value of which is estimated at between $30,000,000 and $40,000,000.POSTAGE STAMPS IN FRENCH Ottawa Jan 8.\u2014It is understood that the Post Office Department is
