No Accounting for Tastes.

President Harrison In his Omaha
speech said:

all those fruits which enrich Cali
fornia, l have seen those mining
camps upon peaks, where men are
delving into the earth to bring out
the riches stored there, but l return
again TO the land Of the cornstalk
with an affection that | cannot
describe. ! am sure those friends
who delighted us with the visions of
loveliness and prosperity will excuse
me If my birth and early training
in Ohio and Indiana leads me to the
conclusion that the states that
raise corn are the greatest states in
the world.
This accords with the sentiments
of the old time Missourian who came
to this country In the flfties and not
withstanding his full granaries of
wheat and heavily laden fruit trees
longed for the hog and bominy of
his youth, and was wont to exclalm

country for its fine wheat and fruit,

The world Enriched.

The facilities Of the present day for
the production Of everything that will
conduce to the material welfare and
comfort Of mankind are almost unlim-
tied, and when Syrup of Figs was first
produced the world was enriched with
the only perfect laxative known, as it
is the only remedy which is truly
pleasing and refreshing to the taste
and prompt and effectual to cleanse
the system gently in the Spring-time
or, in fact, at any time, and the better
it is known the more popular it be
comes.

When time for the next train the

This is the season for foal colts,
when the young things require extra
care, as their dams do also. Raising
good colts, blooded horses especially,
is one of the most profitable and in
teresting branches of husbandry,
and worthy the taste and attention
of good farmers.
In pruning fruit trees try and
have distinct idea in your mind of
what you want the tree to become;
then endeavor to bring IL to that
standard. Never cut out a branch
without good reason for it. If the
top has become crowded, cut out
enough branches to let light and air
into the center. If it has grown
heavier upon one side, remove
enough branches to restore the bal
ance. If large wounds are made,
smooth the surface and paint them
over with some dark colored paint.

Colorado is a land of sharp contrasts, OF
brilliant lights, OF intense shadows a land
where heights and depths make obvious the
meaning of the word antithesis; land where

mood in nature The high, white minarets OF
the mountains, from whose slender pinnaCles
peal with silent eloquence to the lofty aspra.

Titan forces through granite-hearted bills
within whose depths dark shadows throng
and swirling torrents dashspeak to the heart
a language that thrills, inspires and awes 1t
does not follow that these glOrtes OF white
peaks and those glooms of dark canons pre-
clude The pleasant intervals, the sunny
meadows or The secluded nookS wherein the
tired mind or wearied body may find peace-
ful rest and refuge from turmoil and toll. To
one making a journey in Colorado, New
Mexico or Utah, or taking transcontinental-
tour from East 10 West, OF Cice versa, the Dem

modatiOns equal in elegance, ,conven ence and
luxury TO those of any other line with the ad-
ded attractions of the unriValled scenery
along its line, abounding in a magnificent
opulence of white peaks aud dark cauOns.
The month of November, 1890, witnessed one
of The most important improvements in rail-
road facilities that has yet been made in Col

Railroad from Denver, Colorado, over the
mountains to Ogden, Utah, which five years
ago was deemed an imposslbility, is certainly

KINGSTON, Ont, June 1l.-The funeral
of the late Premier, John A. Macdonald,
which took place this Afternoon, was the

From an early hour In the morning a
vast crowd thronged the approaches to
the City Hall building, whore the body
was lying in state, and lined the
thoroughfhres through which the funeral
cortege would pass. Everywhere were
signs of mourning. The houses along
the route of the procession were draped
in black and in every manner possible
the people of the city evinced their
sorrow.
Members Of the late Cabinet acted as
pallbearers. Thousands walked In th q
procession and lined the streets.
Sir John Macdonald's will will not be
