The Iosb by this fire would have been small if even the new buildings had been properly equipped.

The Insurance Department is doing all it can in the way of helping cities and towns as well as individual prop perty owners by inspections and ad vice as to the best means of protec tion'.

Of late years a rude wagon road has been extended through the burnt-over country between thex vil lage of Mistook, near Lake St. John, and the Chute McLeod, the last but one of these Peribonka falls. The necessity of climbing up a steep river has thus been largely eliminated. Lake Tchotogoma may be reached from the other direction, where the means of access have also been im proved, and one coming up from Quebec by the Saguenay boat should go in fronr that quarter and come out by the new route down the Peri bonka. The outfit is carried from Chicou imi, at the head of steamboat navi gation, up to the foot of rough water in the river, a distance of seven miles. Then comes a wagon journey of 22 miles northerly to the Lac des lies. Outiner. A i T "I SAVE MONEY TOO!" uTVTO coal, gas or wood bills! I use a Nfew Perfection Oil Cook Stove.

ONiymTHEBES Inactive Kidneys Cause Disease Hammerhead It So Good an Engineer That Its Nest Will Bear the Weight of a Man. No single-room apartment satis fies the hammerhead. When he builds his nest, he divides it into three rooms a reception hall, a drawing room and a bedroom. .Th entire structure is built of sticks, dome shape, and sometimes six feet in diameter. The bird is so good a carpenter and engineer that the nest will bear the weight f a man. In appearance the bird looks always as if he needed a haircut. His long locks, hanging down his neck, have given him his name, hammerhead. The entrance to his domelike nest is small and on the concealed side. The first room is the hall, where the hammerhead lives when he fears at tack. "Behind this is the drawing room, the home of the voung birds when they outgrow the bedroom. . The bedroom is higher than the rest and safe from floods Here the female bird deposits eggs on a nest of leaves, and both parents take turns at keeping them warm. -The hammerhead lives in Africa, usually builds his nest near a stream and eats fish, frogs, lizards and small snakes.
