The richer furs; such as otters, minks, beavers, martins, etc., are chiefly procured in the Lesser Slave Lake Division of the Saskatchewan District.

"His Majesty King Merolchazzar may his handicap decrease! hae passit a law that a' his soobjects shall do it. Aiblins, 'tis the language spoken by The Pro, on whom be peace! Mphm!"

Violy sez, 'When did you get the linx skins, Ike? an' I sez, 'Last Friday, Miss Violy, an' she sez, 'Ain't they beautiful? an' I sez " "She wants me to come to her house?" broke in Kenneth, his brow darkening.
