“Opossums are becoming very numerous in the bush along the lower slopes of the hills” (writes' the Woodbury correspondent of the “Timaru Herald”) "and in sundry places they are considered to be a pest, and are dealt with accordingly. Once when _ looking through his orchard with a friend, he remarked that some traps must bo set for the rabbits, which were barking the trees. Then we found some branches which had been barked some six feet from the ground, and satisfied that no rabbit in our neighborhood could reach so high, wc i examined them closely. There were the marks of several small teeth; quite different from the large distinct markings of a rabbit’s incisors. So poisoned apples were l put out instead of traps, and four dead ’possums were gathered later on.” “Speak to me only with thine eyes,” But let those eyes bo clear; A cold soon makes them otherwise — Dim, swollen, red, and blear. [hit still, if beauty would allure When colds have made her plain, Woods’ Peppermint Cure will soon secure Her speaking eyes again.
