To My Many Friends am pleased
to make report to You of the pleasant
visit my wife and | had in Western
Canada.
We visited the territories Of AL
berta, Assiniboia, and Saskatchewan,
and found them far surprising our inn
agination, but little did l expect to
find such rich, loamy SOIL so much
of it, and so uniform in its level prai-
RE lay. l do think the soil of Canada
as a rule equals. if not excels the fin
est prairie farm lands of Indiana.
These lands are immense in their
richness, and when once the sod is rot
ted and pulveriZed, it is as pliable and
as easily cultivated as Indiana sandy
soil
Western Canada, from my point Of
view, offers as fine opportunities for
mixed farming as. any place in my
knowledge. The long, sunshiny days
together with the rich soil, produce
very fine wheat, oats, barley, max anc
other cereal products. There is scarce
ly any attempt to raise corn, excep
early varieties for table USE The sea
son is too short to depend upon ma
turing field corn. From the stand
point Of getting this land ready To-
the pillow, must say that never say
such a vast extent, practically al
ready so all that one has to do is Il
hitch up the pillow and go to work
This is not the case with all tn
Canadian land, however; some of i
has quite a bit of timber, much of /
may be called brush land, and some O
it has lovely forest groves, dotted her

Heart trouble, at least among the
Americans, Is certainly increasing and
while this may be largely due to the ex-
oitement and worry Of American BUSH
ress life, it is more often the result Of
weak stomachs, or poor digestion.
Real organic disease is incurable; but
not one case In hundred Of heart trou-
BILE is organic.
The close relation between heart trou-
BILE and poor digestion is because both
organs are controlled by the same great
nerves, the sympathetic and pneumo-
gastric.
In another way, also, the heart is af-
fected by the form of poor digestion,
which causes gas and fermentation from
half -iigested food. There Is feeling Of
oppression and heaviness in the chest
caused by pressure of the distended
stomach on the heart and lungs, inter-
fering with their action; hence arises
ralpitation and short breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood,
making 1t thin and watery. which irri-
tates and weakens the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart
trouble is to improve the digestion and
to insure the prompt assimilation Of
food.
This can be done by the regular use
after meals Of some safe, pleasant and
effective digestive preparation like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. which may
be found at most drug stores, and which
contain valuable, harmless digestive
elements in pleasant, convenient form.
|, It Is safe to say that the regular per-
'sistent use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets at meal time will cure any form Of
stomach trouble except cancer Of the
stomach

The Campania was six hours In wire

miles astern. The Campania reported
that the record for communication by
Marconi wireless telegraphy between
the vessels at sea had been broken by her

ed. The sister ships began talking with
each other at 10 p. m. on Dec. IL, when
100 miles apart, thirty miles better than
the record, and kept 1t up for four
hours. The Campania, on Dec. 10, COM
