A GREAT TIDE OF PROSPERITY.
Canadian Loan Companies Getting Money
on Mortgages That Had Been

~ ~ LIE oT Hoo !
Canadian Loan Companies Getting Money
Mortgages That Had Been
Written OF.
Probably in the history of the con-
tinent there never was such a tide Of
prosperity enjoyed by any country as
the Dominion of Canada is being ia
vored with. That portion of Canada
known as Western Canada is attract
ing thousands Of people, who are seek
ing homes on the arabic lands of that
new hpt rapidly developing country.
Possessed Of exceptionally good rail-
road privileges, the best school sys-
tenn in the world, churches in every
small settlement, while in the towns
and cities all denominations are rep
resented, and with markets in close
proximity to the grain fields, most of
the requirements for a comfortable eX-
istence are met The development
that is now taking place in the min
ing districts gives an impulse to agri-
culture, and good prices, with good
crops, bring about state OF affairs
that the crowded districts of more
populous centers are taking advan-
tage of. The Associated Press dis
patches a few days since had the fol-
lowing telegram:
Toronto, Feb. 4.-(Special.)
companies that made advances on
Manitoba property years ago report
that the returns from the west during
the past three months have exceeded
expectations. One company has taken
from Manitoba over $4,000 interest,
and discharged mortgages, many of
which had been written off a year ago.
Directors of leading loan companies
| are taking a greater interest in bust
ness Of their institutions, and are in
curing into many properties on which
| advances have been made.
| The climate in the western provinces
| of Manitoba, Alberta, Assiniboia and
| Saskatchewan is excellent, there be-
ing no healthier anywhere. The Can
adam government is now offering spe-
cial inducements for the encourage
| ment Of settlers, and they have their
agents at work throughout the United
States for the purpose of giving in
| formation and distributing literature.
Among those going to Canada are
many ex-Canadians, who have failed
to make as good a living as they ex-
pected in the United States.

and they could hear the good minister
preaching, for their house was next
door to the church.
"Dan,' said Willie, 'it is better here
than in church, for you can hear every
word, and don't get prickles down
your back, as YOU DO when you have
to sit up straight"
In some way while Willie WAS lis
tening he fell asleep. Dan kissed him
on the nose, but when Willie went to
sleep, he went to sleep to stay, and
did not mind trifes. So Dan sat down
with the funniest look of care on his
wise, black face, and with one ear
ready for outside noises.
Now the minister had for his sub
]ect, Daniel" This was the name he
always gave Dan when he was teach
ing MIN to sit up and beg, and other
trlcks. While the dog was thinking,
'A1S A1oAAlc bdllIel lell on MS teduy edt
Dan at once ran into the church
through the vestry door. He stood on
MS hind legs, with his forepaws
dropping, close beside the minister,
who did uot see him, but the congrega-
ton did. When the minister shouted
'Dan1el' again, the sharp barks said,
Eyes, sir" as plainly as Dan could an
sWer. The minister started back,
looked around and saw the funny lit
tie picture; then he wondered what he
should do next, but just then through
the vestry came Willie. His face was
| rosy from sleep, and he looked a lit
tie frightened. He walked straight
toward his father, took Dan in his
| arms and said: please 'scuse Dan
| papa; I went to sleep and he ruined
away"
| Then he walked out with Dan look
| ing back on the smiling congregation
The preacher ended his sermon on
Daniel as best he could, but he made
a resolve that if he ever preached on
| Daniel" again that he would not for
| get to tie up his dog.-Our Little Ones.

ley, but there will prob
ably be no important changes at least
for the present. Amongst the peculiar
patents issued last week is one for
speed wagon, the box Of which is
shaped like a cigar, front and rear,
by means of which the operator hopes
to make better time. Another pecu-
liar device is stocking to the bottom
of which is secured a flexible slipper.
Sues & Co., Omaha, have just issued
a new inventors hand book including
some 100 illustrations which may be
obtained free upon application. In
ventors desiring information as to the
law and practice of patents should ad-
dress Sues & Co., registered patent

For some time the Baltimore and
Ohio Southwestern Railway company
has been experimenting with crude
oil for kindling fires in locomotives, in
place of using cord wood, and the re-
suits obtained have been so satisfac-
tory that it will hereafter be used on
the whole line. During the month of
November, 1897, at the company's
shops, which are located at Washing
ton, Ind, and Chillicothe, Ohio, 1926
fires were started with crude oil at a
cost Of $17.32, or 1.41 cents per fire.
To have started the same number of
fires with wood the cost would have
been $4,000, or 24.96 cents per fire.
This represents a saving of $2SS.68,
and is very satisfactory.
