method Of turning cattle adrift in North
America and trusting in God, would be
reprehensibIe in idiots The few occur

better rustlers than the stockmen. The

braclng such stoclz-owners as choose to
attend, subject to the rules; and all ex-
pense to be paid pro rdto upon stock.
In this manner, too, the beef product of
q range conld be sold in one herd, on
contracts that middlemen now enjoy, or
it could be marketed east, whereby the
utmost profit would lie realized by the
actual stock growers. This is intended
to be only the suggestion of possibility
for the consideration of intelligent stock
men. Cattle raising is here no longer an
experiment The severest winters cam
not destroy the herds.
THE FAVORED BELT
for stock-raising apparently extends
from the vicinity of Fort Macleod in the
British Northwest territory to the south
ern confines of Wyoming. From Bow
river north the SHOWS lie too deep, while
in the southwest of the q. 5. cattle
starve three months in the year because
of insufficient forage, and are subjected
to malignant diseases.
Only those who have seen the life of a
| stockman can know what fascination
| it possesses. This favored belt is the
home Of the CATTLE KING! His throne
is the saddle; his scepter the stout lariat;
his kingdom, the unconfned leagues
over which he rides free as the wind,
and his source of wealth more fruitful
than the goose that laid the golden egg,
well merits the royal title ofQUEEN Cow.

SPORTS AND THE STRANGER.


Three sports got into railroad car
railroad ear with pack OF cards:
They called here '.hyar and there was "thar,
And they always spoke 10 each other az ''pards.
For sports there are both good and poo.,
Professional and amateur
Where railroad trains are running.
They wanted fourth at euchre hand,
Three were they and they were one short,
And they asked stranger Il he q the sane
To try little game for sport
For strangers there are where nnen abound
And you'll always fud stranger around
Whe.c railroad trains are running.
The stranger didn't know the game,
But he was willing to live aBdsearn;
To him the cards were all the same
They was to all at first, he'd heafn'
And the sports laugh loud and dealt the pack,
And gave him four queens and thick-legged Jack,
As they will. when trains are cunning.
And then they bet on the poker AMI.
And fattened the pot TO goodly pile,
And they asked the stranger it he would sfand,
And the stranger stood, with smp pie smile.
And one sport raised the otherfWo;
And the stranger him. AS strangers do
Where railroad trains are running.
And then. in solemn breafhlsss hush
The three sports showed what they had got;
But aces won't beat a royal flush,
And the stranger gobpled chat obese pot.
For strangers and sports are natural foes.
And the former carry cards in their cloeS,
Where railroad trains are running.

HIS PA STABBED.

II hear YOU had burglars over to your
house last night said the grocery man
to the bad boy, as he came III and sat on
the counter right over a little gimlet hole
where the grocery man had fixed
darning needle SO that by pulling
string the needle would fly up through
the hole and run into the boy about an
inch. The grocery man had been lay
ing for the boy for two days, and now
that he had got him right over the hole
the first time, it made him laugh to
think how he would make him jump
and veil. and as be edged off and got
hold of the string the boy looked uncon-
scious of impending danger. The
grocery man pulled, and the boy sat still.
He pulled again and again, and finally
the boy said: I< -.
Eyes, it is reported that we had burg
lars over there O, you needn't pull
that string any more. I heard you was
setting trap for me, and [ put piece
of board inside my pants and thought |
would let you exercise yourself. 20
ahead il it amuses you. 1t don't hurt
me-"
The grocery man looked sad, and then
smiled sickly sort OF q aismile, at the
failure of his plan to puncture the boy,
and then he said, well, how was 1t.
The policemen didn't seem to know
much about the particulars He SAID
there was so much deviltry going on at
YOUR house that nobody could tell when
ANYTHING was serious, and he was IN
clined to think it was a put up job
| Nov, let's have an understanding 4
says the boy. Whatever say, you are AZ G
not to give me away. It's q go, is It?

The Reason Why

DR.. E. B. Haliday's Blood Purifiers is held
superior to any blood medicine in the
market is because it is the only blood
medicine on the whole catalogue that
acts on the brain as well as the blood,
and on the whole nervous system, thus
toning up every part. People in the
western states are subject to catarrh and
neuralgia, which affect the brain. They
find it clears the head of that depression
as no other medicine ever did before. A
trial will convince you. For sale by all

A petition is being circulated here,
and is being numerously signed by the
residents of this district, praying the
Postmaster General to continue the
mail route between here and Benton,
even after the @. p. railroad has passed
Calgary.
The rumor in circulation here some
time ago that Star child, the supposed
murderer Of Grayburn, was killed Dy
Assinaboines last fall, turns out to be un-
true. He was wounded seriously but
recovered and is at present at Badger
creek with the South Piegans. He spent
the winter among the Crows at the 4el-
