I know from practical use OF the ben.
efcial effects OF Red Glover, when but
eleven years OF age had scrofalus ewell-
ings, carrying both arms in one position
for weeks at time. Doctors said on ex.
animation that might live year, posi-
bly, two at the longest. but no longer.
My mother took charge Of me, and in her
old fashioned way Of doctoring and using
Red Glover, I am to-day a well and
hearty man. Since your extract Of Red
Glover came on the market, I have used
it with good results. My wife is now
using it for dropsy aud general debility,
and it is doing her more good than any
thing she has yet found. I think that
for tonic and blood medicine there is
nothing so good as your extract OF Red
Glover. You are Tree to use this, as do
not hesitate to recommend it to any wlio
are afflicted. Yours truly, 80

A captivating. wtnsome girl

OF what she hopes to oo.
Discusses love and all the time
Conddes alone in me.
From Herbert Spencer sac Will quote
With such . pleasing smile,
But. oh!" she says. Il simply dote
On Huxley and Carlyle"
She speaks OF giants Of the pen.
And would never tire
To hear her tell OF books and men
And poets full Of fire.
For balls and such she little cares.
And everywhere she goes
A pair Of spectacles she wears
Upon her dainty nose;
She hates all simple, childish things
Love ne'er disturbs her heart;
The Indian clubs she daily swings
And rcvels in Deisarte.
she likes to watcn standard play
And longs for tragic sights;
Although strong-minded, she viii ssy:
I'm down on woman's rights"
Why she can walk the huelong day,
Kill rabbits with gun,
She KNOCKS me silly at croquet
And thinks lawn tennis fun.
Her hair Is Just modest brown.
Without o single curl,
Her lips the envy Of the town
Two rose leaves filed with pesrfs-
Her eyes are dashed with HesvcuS bfua.
Her figure very neat;
And nm sure each enc Of you
VIII say she's hard to beat.

profitable occupation and the farmers IN
such country making more than bare
living. Agriculture in such country is
like mining-simply taking gold from
the soil in the shape OF the finer grades
of wheat and other cereals, and it pos
sesses the great advantage over mining
that the amount Of actual work neces-
sary to make it pay is comparatively
very small.
Upon the great fertile prairies OF West

old and new, have simply taken gold
from the ground in the shape of mag
nificent crops for the season of 1890.
Their gold is golden grain, but 1t
yields as sure returns as any metal ever
mined. The writer visited farm after
farm in Manitoba the past season
where the yield of wheat averaged from
80 to SO bushels per acre, and where
oats yielded frequently rs bushels per
acre of choice grain. Upon one farm OF
1,soO acres, the crop Of wheat and oats
was close to go, COO bushels, and Of this
the first lot of 20, 1000 bushels of wheat
was sold for s4c and SOC per bushel.
Close beside this large farm was a small
one from which the owner had taken
his first crop. He had started with no
capital the year before, yet his crop Of
wheat was 1000 bushels and the quality
was SO good that he got s5c per bushel
for it, one cent bushel more than his
wealthy neighbor, which meant just
$3.50 for his first season in wheat alone.
With a climate peculiarly adapted to-
grain-growing, and a population repre-
senting nearly every nation, Western
Canada offers to the settler a most
favorable chance to succeed among
friends or fellow countrymen of his own.
