months the really picturesque Indian is
unknown to Winnipeg They reside too
far north to make the trip except when
the winters SHOWS offer a method of
transporta ton, but is the tourist trav-
els westward he finds more of them.
They meet every train, they are seen at
that there are less than 1OO, 900 of them
all told in Canada.
In Winnipeg I called upon Hon. Da-
vid Laird, the Canadian Indian COM
missioner for the Northwest Terri
tories, to secure some information.
"Where is the best place to see the
typical Canadian Indian?' I sked.
ut depends entirely on what you
class as TYPICAL" he replied. "What
we would class as typical western Can
ada Indians are those in the schools,
on the farms and the cattle ranges.
They are not the picturesque Indians,
however. If you are looking for paint
and feathers there is no better place
than around Calgary. There you can
see the Indian in all his savage finery,
but they are typical of a generation
ago, not of to-day"
It is true that Canada has success
fully educated large percent
age of her Indian population. All
over the western provinces and ter
ritories are Indian boarding and day
schools in which the younger genera
ton of Indians take a great interest,
and in which thousands of them are
perfecting themselves for lives of civ
ilization and usefulness.
But the old love for the wild life
is not entirely dead even among the
younger generations About Calgary
may be seen the Crows, the Blackfeet,
and little further west in the foot
hills of the mountains the Stony tribe.
With them the moccasins, the blanket,
the buckskin breeches and shirt con-
stitute the wearing apparel; the
squaws still perform the drudgery of
the camp, her lord is still a hunter,
and to small extent cattle ranger.
The teepee is the common home, and
they are seen by hundreds from Medi-
cine Hat to the Rocky mountains.
Paint and feathers are a promine 1T
feature of their makeup, as in days
of old, and during the recent visits of
the duke and duchess of York it was

How He Won Her.

A sturdy young foot-baller who has
been counting the lovely daughter OF
a wealthy magnate, had many rivals
to contend against. The magnate was
an ardent lover of football, and when
the youthful player came a few weeks
ago to plead for the young lady's
hand, the father replied:
$50 and score couple of goals for
our team and then come and see me
again.
The lover pluckily fulfilled the allot-
ted task few Saturdays ago, and
called again on the man of money.
"And now" said the magnate, 'tell
me in what respect you differ from
your rivals in seeking my daughters
hand"
''That is easily explained" was the
ready response. "They loved for gold,
while I goaled for Lowell"

when Time Hang. Heavily.

Times is never wasted until it
"hangs heavily on our hands''-when
you are neither working nor enjoy
ing yourself There may be times
when it suits ones mood to ''loaf and
invite ones SOUL" but they are rare
nowadays. If you don't believe it
consider how the average citizen
spends his vacation. Most people
work harder and economic their va
cation time more grudingly in get
ting the most out of it than they do
in any other part of the year. They
hate to lose a minute of enjoyment.
Of course, there are times-every day
when time seems absolutely wasted,
and these are the times when mems
tempers are on edge and things go
crosswise. Chief among this list of
wasted and monotonous intervals is
the time spent in waiting for car,
in travelling on it after you get it, in
waiting for meals, in tuning over dila-
tory appointments or by reaching
there too soon. Other instances are
where the bore buttonholes you and

St. Jacobs Oil for Chest-Colds. IRON
chttis, Group and PIeurisY

An outward application for bronchial diff
hculties is many times far more effective
than syrups,. cough mixtures, cod liver oil
DC, simply because it penetrates through
to the direct cause, which is, as rule, an
accumulation of matter or growth tightly
adhering to the bronchial tubes.
St. Jacobs Oil, possessing as it does those
wonderful penetrating powers, enables it
to loosen these adhesions and to induce free
expectoration. Cases have been known
where appropriations have been examined
after st. Jacobs Oil has been applied, and
the exact formation was clearly shown,
where the adhesions had been removed or
pulled off the bronchial tubes All irrita-
ton of the delicate mucous membrane of
the bronchae is quickly removed by the
healing and soothing properties of st ia
cobs Oil. In cases of Group and whoop-
ing cough in children st. Jacobs Oil will be
found superior to any other remedy.
st. Jacobs Oil is for sale throughout the
world. 1t is clean to use-not at all greasy
or oily, as its name might imply. For rhen-
matism, govt, sciatica, neuralgia, cramp,
pleurisy, lumbago, sore throat, bronchitis,
soreness, stiffness, bruises, toothache, head
acne, backache, feetache, pains in the chest,
pains in the back, pains in the shoulders.
pains in the limbs, and all bodily aches and
pans 1t has no equal. 1t acts like magic.

this country the coming of the white
man to the west meant the gradual
diminution of the land over which the
Indian was permitted to roam at will,
the turning of the sod by the settler
meant the extinction of the game that
formed the Indians subsistence. In
Canada the white man brought with
him congenial employment. He did
not represent the advance of the white
mans civilization, but brought the
white mans need for the Indian to fill,
and for the which he was ready to pay.
Go where you will in western Canada
even at this late day and the II. B. c.
flag of the old company is a safeguard
against theft by any Indian. To the
Indian that flag stood for their en-
ployer's. for a government that left
them their wild free life and their
game. But it represented a govern
ment none the less; government for
the Indian by the white man, but gov
eminent of such a character that the
savage did not rebel against it.
True, Canada has had her Indian
troubles. Twice within the last half a
century has Indian rebellion stalked
3 broadcast over the Canadian plains.
and laid waste advancing settlement.
But 1T was not the government repre-
sented by the II. 3. c. flag against
watch the rebellion was aimed, but
that which was replacing the H.aB. C..
The old factors of the Hudson Bay
company's posts who served through
the stigring days of the Reel re be nions
tell many an interesting story of how
their long trains of Red river carts
over which floated the II. B. c. flag
were allowed to pass in safety, while
anything claiming the protection of
the union jack of England was consid-
cred fair prize by the rebels.
There are nearly one-half of the In
dams of Canada still under the iuris-
diction of the Hudson Bay company.
They are the natives of the far north
and include the typical red men of the
forest and the Esquimaux. far beyond
the arctic circle. To these the factor
at the Hudson Bay company post at
which they dispose of the trophies of
the chase for what they consider the
Iuxuries of life is both lawmaker and
lawgiver. His authority is uno1ies-
tianed, and his order meets with in
slant obedience. The source ofchis an

West should be careful that the rates paid
for their transportation do not exceed those
charged by the Nickel Plate Road.
This company always offers lowest rates
and the service is efficient. Careful at
tention is given to the wants of all FIRST
and second class passengers by uniformed
colored attendants. The dining car service
of the Nickel Plate Road is above criticism
and enables the traveller to obtain meals
at from thirty-fve (35) cents to SI.00 but
no higher.
The Pullman service is the usual high

their pleasure to entertain the royaI
visitors with war dance given with
all the Old-time ardor and realism.
These Indians have accepted civil
cation only so far as it has suited their
convenience. They do not disdain the
annual annuity of five dollars per head
which the government pays them, or
the privilege of occasionally selling
or killing steer with which the gov.
eminent intrusts them.
Nor are they above accepting the
products of civilized commerce when
it appeals to their sense of fitness. As
an illustration of this it is seldom that
the painted faces are now colored with
the old-time vegetable dies. The paint
is still there, but as a concession to
civilizat ton they now use the coarse
red paint of commerce with which the
settler protects his farm buildipe
against the elements.
