A SUCCESSFUL FARMER.

Within three miles of the town 60
ing eastward is the farm of Mr.. w.
Creamer, one of the municipalities
largest and most prosperous mixed
farmers. Mr.. Creamer came to this
country in 1880 and settled on n por-
ton of the land which comprises his
present enormous farm of 1850 acres.
In common with many others of a
similar period he experienced all the
hardships and difficulties common to
the absence of railway and market ia
cilities. In no wise daunted. by en-
ergy, industry and indomitable will
he has been able to surmount all OBJ
stacles and has achieved an unpar-
alleled success and is known through
out the district as one of it's preemi-
nent farmers. His operations extend
over 1880 acres, two sections (the
thought alone of so much land makes
the eastern farmer dizzy; 500 acres
of this is broken and the remainder
is excellent pasture land and wood.
This harvest he took off a crop of
500 acres of wheat and 200 of other
grains. Four hundred acres are
plowed and ready for wheat next
spring. Mr., Creamer is, as has been
stated, n mixed farmer of no mean
proportions, having at the present
time 40 horses, GO head of cattle and
80 pigs. The most modern farm
buildings are found on his premises,
the main building being a barn SIS
feet square on a stone foundation
containing stabling for 1G horses and
large number of cattle. The loft
is stored with 20 loads of sheaf oats
for feed and tons of hay; there is
also cutting box. Another building
of large dimensions is the granary, in
which after teaming large quantities
to market he still has stored 5000
bushels of wheat. A crushing ma
chine is in the building. There are a
number of lesser buildings contain
ing chicken house, pig pens and cattle
sheds. The farm residence is a hand
some frame structure of ample pro-
portions, in connection with it is a
wood shed. The water supply is I'M
| eXcelled; besides house supply there
is well in the stables and a never
failing spring situate in a bluff, which
never freezes. Surrounded by thick
bluff of poplars, extending in n semi
circle to the west, north and east,
the winter storms are broken and ac-
cumulation of snow unknown. Added
to his farming operations, Mr.. Cream
err conducts threshing outfit for the
season, His success is only one in
stance of what can be accomplished
in Western Canada.-Baldur (Man.)
Gazette, Nov. 10th. 1899.
Thousands are going to Western
Canada this year to take advantage of
the free homestead laws that are be-
ing offered by the government.

DOES NOT PAY TO BE OBLIGING
One Chicago Young Man Has Tried
1t ana Knows whereof
He Speaks.

Miss Suburbanite and her "best"
young man We're going to spend the
afternoon with some friends at a
suburb some miles further out. AS
they left her home she handed him her
pocketbook to care for in thoroughly
orthodox fashion. Just as the train
which was to take them to the other
station buggy stopped close to the
tracks. a woman jumped out of it,
lifted child in each hand, and made
for the train.
'Oh, they'll be left!" screamed Miss
Suburbanite, and there was nothing
for the young man to do but to go to
the rescue. While the girl helped the
two children aboard he made dash
for the buggy to help the mother get
the luggage and the third youngster.
just then the train pulled out. Miss
Suburbanite was carried on, with two
excited, screaming children, and the
young man and the mother were left
behind. When the conductor came
along he scoifed at Miss Suburbanite's
story of her lost pocketbooll and how
she came into possession of the two
screaming cherubs. She was put off at
the next station, eight miles further on,
and the two children with her. She had
not penny about her, and there
seemed no way out of the quandary but
to walk back or wait until the mother
of the children and the missing young
man came along. AS there was no 9TH
er train from the place she had just
left until well toward midnight, the
situation seemed hopeless.
Meantime the young man and the
mother of the children, left standing on
the platform, were staring at each 9TH
er Indignantly.
"Nice predicament you've got me
and my little children into with your
ofticiousness," said the woman.
Nice predicament you've got me
into" retorted the young man. He de-
cided finally to drive over to the next
suburb, correctly judging that Miss
Suburbanitc would be compelled to
leave the train at that point. The roads
were bad, he horse tired, and this with
a frightened and indignant woman at
his side, made the trip anything but
pleasant.
When they reached the depot they
found that Miss Suburbante had bor-
rowed some money from the station
agent, leaving her watch and ring as
security, had walked over to the sta
ton. of the other railway. which ran
through the second suburb, and taken q
train for home. There would be no
train for the pursuing party to take for
hours, however, so they drove back
Al inc home station il was found that
the girl had gone to her home, taking
the children with her. She did not
want them, but the station agent rcso-
lutely refused TO take charge of them.
This is a nice way to NEEDLE with
other peoples children" snapped the
woman, as she made off with the ba-
bies.
To cap ii all. the young man and the
girl quarreled all the way home, and il
was long time before they decided to
make up again.-Chicago Inter Ocean.

WHAT THEY REALLY SAY.
Husband and Wife mt the Theater
Who AppenrCto he Engaged
in Conversation.

A man and wife enter the theater. As
soon as they are seated and she digs around
for the hat pins and removes her hat they
look at each other smilingly and seem, to
onlookers, TO be carrying on an animated
conversation. Here's what they're really
saying:
Husband-Your hairs crushed and plas-
tered down in front like a dago BARRIERS
Cam you give it a swipe that'l-
Wife-Un Unreasonable thing! How can you
expect me to have my hair all fluffy and
nice as soon as | take off a heavy toreador
hat that comes down over my
well, give it couple of dahs, anyhow.
Looks now as if you'd been making high
dive off "a"
"There-now does it suit your lordlord-
ship"
"Oh, well, it isn't as dinky as it was.
What's become of that-what-yo bit
that rat thing you got to put under your front
hemp awhile ago? That made it stick up
some, anyhow, and
"The dog ate it up, and it was too warm,
anyway. Ny, what a frightful haircut your
barber gave you to-day. Makes you look
like a Russian moujk! Don't you think
you'd better change your barbcr? ETC.

Louis Angle, or at least that is what
he called himself, who, judging from
his looks, had scarcely reached the age
of discretion, appeared in town on
Friday, having in his possession a
horse. He recited what would ordi-
narily pass as plausible story, and
offered the animal for sale. Frank
Derr, who conducts livery stable in
the rear of Hotel Ent, took liking
to the horse and as the price seemed
low concluded to buy it. The deal
was consummated and everything
appeared all right until Monday, when
a Mr.. Killey, liveryman from Scran-
ton came to town and demanded the
horse, which, he claimed, had been
hired and never returned. Ofcourse,
he took it and now Frank is minus
the $a5. Angle was apprehended on
Tuesday morning, taken to Scranton,
and placed in Jail. The young man
said that his home was in Muncy.
