Calgary, Alberta, Nov. 4, 1898.
To the Editor of the Duluth Evening
Herald, Duluth, Mimi, Dear Slr-As
to many replies to the home-seeker of
Minnesota, | can cheerfully say this
country is better for a poor man than
Minnesota II he wants to farm and
raise stock. l have spent n winter
and two summers here, which | tnd
more pleasant than any winter | Nave
seen in Minnesota for eight years. The
seasons are short, but the effect OF
long days of bright sunshine produces
a very rapid growth of vegetation
Their Is good money in raising coarse
grains and feeding to hogs and cattle,
for pork and beef always bring a good
price here. Hogs are worth from 81
to $3.50 live weight per cwt., and beef
about the same. There is plenty OF
railroad land to be had very cheap and
on longtime payments. A man does
not want to think he can pick up mon
ey on the ground here, but there is lots
OF 1t in the ground, and labor will take
1t u There is a vast scope of coun-
try north of Edmonton, Alberta, which
can be settled, and a large scope of
country west of Edmonton adapted to
ranchfng and mixed farming. This
country is the best place | have ever
seen for the cure of consumption. |
could refer you to different people here
who were in the last stages of con-
sumption, who are now in perfect
health and able to do any kind of hard
work and are very prosperous. Hoping
this may benefit home-seekers who are
willing to work for an honest living,
l remain, yours very truly,
(Signed.) CHARLES n. SCOTT.

Three Score and Ten.

Three Score and Ten.
Who reach their threescore years and ten
As l have mine, without a sigh,
Are either more or less than men
Not such I'm l..
/ am not of them; life to me
Has been a strange, bewildered dream,
Wherein l knew not things that be
From thines that seem.
1 thought, 1 hoped, 1 knew one thing.
And had one gift, when l was young
The impulse and the power to sing,
And so l sung.
To have a place in the high choir
I poets, and deserve the same.
What more could mortal man desire
Than poets fame?
l sought it long, but never found;
The choir so full was and so strong,
The jubilant voices there, they drowned
My simple song.
Men would not hear me then, and now
l care not, 1 accept my fate.
When white hairs thatch the furrowed
Crowns come too late!
The best of life went long ago
FROM me; it was not much at best:
Only the love that young hearts know,
The dear unrest.
Back on my past, through gathering
tears,
Once more I cast my eyes and see
Bright shapes that in my better years
Surrounded me.
They left me here, they left me there,
Went down dark pathways, one by
one
The wise, the great, the young, the eair;
But 1 went on.
And l go on! And, bad or good.
The old allotted years of men
! have endured, as best l could
Threescore an ten!

Leaving All with Thee.

Lord, with Thee We leave each thing,
All our heavy weight of sorrow;
All our griefs TO Thee we bring,
And the dread Of coming morrow.
All-believing,
Never grieving,
With a trust in Thee complete,
Laying all at Thy dear feet.
Yea. to Thee we bring them all,
LIES sweet gifts of Joy and pleasure,
Glow before Thee, Lord, we fall.
Pouring out our hearts best treasury.
To Thy keeping.
Not with weeping,
For Thy care doth know no sleeping,
All that we I'VE deeply priced
With affection undisguised.
All our heavy load of pain,
To Thee. Master, are we bringing:
Toll that seemed but idle. vain,
Troubles. small and yet so singing,
Lonely, weary,
Sad and dreary,
Mourning over past days CHEEKY.
Mem'ries over which we wept,
Nothing now from Thee is kept.
oh, forgive us for the past!
All our folly. all our sinningf
In the years whose mem'ries last.
Help US make a new beginning.
Though day waneth,
Still God ~reigneth,
And thy mighty arm sustalneth.
Hopes and fears we leave for aye
With Thee, and for aid we pray.
oh. be patienti We are weak.
Human. foolish. oft mistaken
To our hearts new courage speak,
In our souls new life awaken:
Thou. most Holy.
Kneel we lowly,
AAd we pray Thee, pardon wholly
We are listening for Thy voice,
May 1t make our hearts rejoice!

TIT readers of this paper will be pleased to
learn that there is at least one dreaded disease
that science has been able to cure in all its
stages and that Is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh
Cure is the only positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being q constitu-
tional disease, requires a constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and mucous sur
faces of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation Of the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the constitution and

Military Surprises No Longer Possible.
1t seems probable that the days of
great strategic surprises on the CONT
lent of Europe are over. Such move
ments as those of Marlborough and Ma
poleon from the Rhine and the AIps
into the very heart of Germany or
Italy, overrunning vast extents of ter
ritory before a decisive battle. are not
likely soon to recur. The reasons are
that armies are tied to railways. and
each terminus of each great railway
line near the frontier tells its own story
of the direction of the operations.
Again, the electric telegraph %circulates
information so rapidly that surprise
will be the result of lack of prepara-
ton rather than of bewiIderment he
cause of lack Of information. The
small and local press to be found in ev-
cry little town is almost as fatal to Sc
crecy.

Knowledge of God.


Faith must grow with knowledge,
and mans conception of God expand
with the mans comprehension of the
greatness of the home which God has
made for him. The time Is not dis
tant when science will be recognized
as the most helpful friend religion has
had in this many-sided century. For
science has rectified and purified our
conception Of God as well as enlarged
and clarified 1t. The greater the Gre
alton the greater the creator. The
God of the whole earth and Of all men
is vaster and diviner than the God OF
Israel; and yet the Israelite found a
sense of nearness and comfort In the
feeling that Jehovah was the God OF
his race, which would have been lost
If he had been told that the Jew and
the Greek were alike In the sight OF
the Infinite. 1t is inevitable that God
should seem vaster with every extern
sion of human knowledge; not because
he changes, but because our capacity
to comprehend him and to follow the
lines OF his creation constantly en-
larges. And with that enlargement
Of conception there ought to go a deep
ening of that JOY which has its springs
in faith. The greater our thought Of
God, the greater must be our sense of
peace and safety in him. In another
century men will have become famil-
lar with the larger world in which
they live. and will feel at home in 1t,
as the Mediterranean peoples, who
once dreaded the Atlantic as an I'M
known and perilous sea, now find the
greater ocean less dangerous than tho
smaller o~ne.-Outlook
