ssts the average teacher is, "How

occupations tax the nerves more

Few people realize what an en-
pire the Canadian Pacific has open
ed to civilization. The vast plateaus
lying at the base of the Rocky
Mountains, a country larger than
the three states of North and South
Dakota and Minnesota, is one Of the
richest farming regions in the world
and is certain in the future to be-
come, with the three states mention
ed, the granary Of North America.
A company Of Aberdeen people who
have recently spent six weeks in
travelling several thousand miles in
that section inform the writer their
trip was a revelation. At Prince
Albert, on the Saskatchewan, three
hundred miles northwest Of Winni-
peg, or about one thousand miles
nearly due north of Aberdeen, they
found, early in June, grass nearly
two feet high and learned that stock
Of all kinds had kept in good con-
dition at pasture, without shelter,al
winter. Returning to Winnipeg
they went west seven or eight hun
dred miles and in Western Assina-
boia took the Edmonton line several
hundred miles north, where they
still found fertile plains, good tim
Der and prosperous farmers. At
nearly all points where they stopped
they found the farmers raising a
superb quality OF hard wheat.-Ab-

The above may not be wholly nm
expected by Grandma Weeds num-
erous Elk Point friends, but il will
certainly elicit much sorrow; for
she wa a lady whom all admired
and loved TO minister to. Her life
has been % Of hard work and cor
row, but she has born it patiently.
Many people looked at her as a
model Of Christian womanhood and
well they might. Mrs. Weed, to.
gether with her husband and child.
rem, came to this county some twen-
ty years ago and settled on . farm
near the present site Of Alcester,
where they remained several years.
After the ravages ofthe grasshoppers
they moved to this city where, soon
after, Mr.. Weed died. Since then
Grandma Weed has been a resident
Of this city and has been generously
ministered to by our citizens when
ever she has needed aid. Her health
has been poor and her strength fee

these facts she always had q hand
in any work Of beneyolenc6 and
kindness within her reach. Her at.
tendance at church was very fire.
quent, considering her age, she hav'
ing reached more than four-score
years. When her health became &c
feeble that she needed constant care
she was moved to her sons home
near Alcester, about a month ago
She has long expressed her willing

THE WORLDS POPULATION.

The man is not living who can give
anywher" near the exact population Of
the world. Civilized countries have sys-
TENS Of enumeration by which figures
approaching accuracy may be obtained
as to the number Of people each contain.
But there are thickly populated semi
barbarous regions whose population
must be estimated upon data. much of
which is purely conjectural. But in this
age Of steam and rapid transportation
communication with them Is compare
lively easy and statIsticians are enabled
10 estimate with much better chance Of
success the number Of their Inhabitants.
German statisticiaus estimate that %
per cent Of the total population Of the
world lies in countries which have per
fected systems Of enumeration. Using
that percentage as the basis Of their cal
rulatiOns. they estimate the whole at
l.45O.OOO.OUO. The animal increase since
1852 is put down al about G,oDO.op0. The
density Of population Is greatest III
Europe, which has "a inhabitants to the
square mile. Asia follows mex with a.
TO the square mile. Africa is third with
IA. The Oceanic islands have 10. Amer
lea 8 and Australia !.
These figures are instructive. They
show that the new world has room for q
vast number 81 people. If the figures
tor Europe be accepted as the maximum
population that can exist upon d square
mile Of territory. and if it be possible. Of
which there can be no doubt. that the
United States could support an equal
number upon the same area it will be
found there is room enough upon ouI
100000 square miles. not counting
Alaska. for twelve times its presen,
population or, in round numbers, 76o,
100000 souls. When that number shall be-
reached the mountains will be leveleo
and all the waste places will bloom anc
blossom like the rose.

BuTTE is happy. Butte deserves nap.
piness. Enveloped as she is in a cloud
Of sulphurous smoke which would make
satan himself desert hades and come to
Great Falls for "a breath of pure. cool.
refreshing ozone it cannot be presumed
her bliss comes in heroic measures. But
when it does ONE. however small the
dose she enjoys it. The latest glance al
the silver lining TO the lowering cloud
revealed the fact that two Of her stal
wart miners had scooped. beaten and
knocked out the champion rock driIlers
in all Of Colorado. That was glory
enough for d week and every smoke be
grimmed c~ountenance in the greatest
mining camp on earth is wreathed in
smiles. All hail to Butte.
