AMERICANS IN CANADA.
Many Are Making Homes on the Fer- tile Lands of the Northwest-
 ern Domini2n.

There is at this time considerable American migration to the Canadian northwest. The fertile and compara- lively cheap lands of Manitoba, Assini- boia and Saskatchewan are attracting many settlers, now that they can be reached with ease and facilities exist for shipping their products to market. Last year, reports the Chicago Trib- une, 63,ooo,00o bushels of wheat was raised in a region which was once looked on as part of the frozen north, valuable only for the fur-bearing ami malls it produced There are millions of acres of land not under cultivation which can be made as fruitful as those now being titled.
 A majority of the men who are now making homes for themselves in the Canadian northwest are Americans. This does not alarm the Dominion au- thorities. They have no fear that the newcomers will be disturbing polit- ical element, or that they will at some future day agitate for the annexation to the United States of provinces in which they may be in the majority. There is no occasion for apprehension on that score. Americans have emi- grated in numbers to Canada before this and have manifested no inclina- tion to Americanize their new coun-

all these ships at enormous prices and see that the foreign shipyards build more for competition; or, to buy con- trolling interest in majority of the chief lines and have the ships continue for the present, at least, under their own flags. MT Morgan chose the cas- fest of the three tasks, and the one that certainly would prove least offensive land injurious to the best interests of England. Naturally, Britons are much exercised over the possibility that these Igreyhounds under their flag will be un- able to help to protect the flag in case of war, now that so many of them are in the hands of a syndicate controlled by Americans; but 1t is writ in fate that Great Britain can never again go to war with the United States. It would simply end in suicide for our is- land kinsmen. Nor can the mother country go to war with any other great power without an understanding with the United States. whether or not we own her merchant ships. Eng land has at least six months of food in her pantry and warehouse. She pro- duces about one fourth of her needs. her colonies furnish only about one seventh. To America and Russia she must look for about seventeen twenty eighths. Russia supplies only small fraction of this. America sends to her about one half. Not only this, but American capital is pouring into Eng land for investment, and the money market is changing from London to New York. The fact is that neither Engiishmen, nor. indeed, the best in- formed Americans have any conception Of how much the mother will soon be dependent on the daughter, so to speak, for her well-being
 The ship trust is only one f several straws being blown by the wind. America will soon need the English railroads and will buy them.-July Success"

THE SHIPPING TRUST.


 The American shipping trust seems to have disturbed nearly the whole of the British empire, but more especially certain clements i'll Great Britain and Canada. We have never doubted that Britannia made the sea, built the first craft that ever tioated upon it, and that she owns 1t now, to do whatever she pleases with 1t, as John Smith will do with his mill pond. In all things maritime she has n fine self assurance, and 1t is a pity to have it so rudely disturbed by greedy Ameri- can millionaires But the facts are these: America has more money than she knows what to do with, If she does not meddle In someone else's business: three-fourths of all the freight traffic aat crosses the North Atlantic comes out of our hills and fields and workshops; and four-fifths of all the passenger traffic Is composed of Americans or people who are trying to become such. American capital and enterprise are certainly entitled to q share in business which Is so largely indebted to Americans for It's existence. There was one of three things for our capitalists to do:-to build compet- , ing line of ships, and, by the control hand assistance of the principal rail- Roads of this country. finally drive all

The Effects of Artillery.

It has long been a commonplace that the effects of artillerya are mainly moral" but for all that the intro duction of the new explosive-lyddite, especially-and of quick-fring guns had insensibly revived the belief in the great material value of artillery. It would be gratuitous to say that ar tillery has had a great downfall in general estimation among those who have always taken sane view of it's uses we do not think it has but we may fairly say that relative ly to artillery the rifle has gained in reputation. We know now that lyddite, although it may make short work of the mahdi's tomb, is of little use against earthworks, especially when it falls on very soft ground, and that the stories of men whose senses left them and whose teeth shook in their heads because they happened to be within a quarter of mile of an explosion of lyddite were mere moonshine.-London Spectator.

AT SUMMER RESORTS.

Mrs M. D. W. Sherwood, author of that clever novel, "A transplahted Rose" contributes to the July "Suc- cess, an interesting and practical arr tlcle on etiquette, which she directs to the young women born In the country unused to the strict etiquette of socie- ty.' Mrs Sherwood gives the following information on table manners:
 l Her napkin should be partly unfold. led in her lap when the first coursa is served,-for the napkin must not ha fastened Ito the bodice. The first course will, perhaps, be clans and when she has used lemon juice and seasoning, she will take the tiny fork al her left to lift the clans from their sheiis. The shells must lie in the crushed ice in which they were brought neing touched only by the tips of the ringers to detach them from their con tents Nor must they be piled one on the other, or otherwise disturbed. when the clams are eaten. The dish in which they are served, or the plate for any course, must not be set aside: the waiter will come to remove it.

The three smaller forks will be used for inc nsh, the entree, and the salad. inc large knife and fork for the roast and the extra knife may be used for the entree, if needed. The soup Is ser. Ved by the chaperon, one ladleful beino suficient. 1t is eaten with the loroa spoon, which Is carried quietly to inc mouth, nor should a hissing sound ac- company the eating of soup. which is taken from the side of the partly fil- leu spoon. Waters or bread must not De broken into 1t. A piece of bread Iald py the side of the plate, may be broken i'll small pieces and eaten from the nngers. When the small bread and-butter knife is used, in the other courses. the bread Is never to be cut. put always broken. In finishing the soup the plate must never be "tipped up" or "scraped" for the last drops.
 Salad should be dressed before if is brought to a table. If it is not. ouiet- " request the waiter to prepare if Dessert and black coffee in small cups complete a dinner. Crackers and cheese should be eaten with the fingers but a fork may be used for soft cheese.

 Ordering from menu card Is con- fusing to any one not accustomed to It. young woman may allow her chaperon to do this for her; but. if she does 1t herself. she should order the dishes which she can pronounce, and not try to ask for. these printed in for eign languages.
 The matter of eating gracefully should be cultivated at home. and not during the visit to watering place or to a friends home.
 Leave the dining room leisurely. It IS always gracious to thank the waiter who opens the door or places q chair on the yeranda. Indeed. q quiet ex- pression of thanks Is seldonm out of place. A gracious manner shows a kind heart and self-respect.

seIIinw the wind.

It seems incredible, but is neverthe- less fact, that as late as the year 1874 an old woman named Bessie Millie, of Pomona, in the Orkney islands, sold fla vorable winds to seamen at the small price of six pence vessel. For many years witches were supposed to sell the wind. The Finlanders and Lap landers made quite trade by selling winds. The old women, after being we'll paid by the credulous sailors, used to knit three magical knots; the buyer was told he would have a good gale when he united the first knot, the second knot would bring a strong wind, and the third a severe tempest. At one time winds were sold at Mont St. Michael, in Normandy, and arrows were sold at the same time to charm away bad storms.

THINGS WE
 LIKE BEST
Why is it They so Seldom
 Agree With Us?

Whats the reason the things we like best so seldom seem to agree with us? Maybe it's because we overeat of them. Then follows a fit of indigestion. Only lasts day or two perhaps. But it's most uncomfortable day or two. We don't mean to abuse our StomachS but we all do it more or less. We see things we want and can't resist the longing for them. When it's too late we regret our rashness. But there's a way to escape the conse- quences of such indiscretions. A dose of a good digestant like Kodol Dys- pepsia Cure will relieve you at once.
 Indigestion is always due to the same cause. Your stomach is too weak to digest what you eat. 1t needs rest. You can't rest it by going without food. That would mean starvation. But Kodol Dyspepsia Cure will rest it. It does the stornach's work. In the mean time the tired organ is gaining fresh strength. Before long it will be as strong as ever. You don't have to diet. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure will di- gest any kind of wholesome food.
 T had stomach trouble four years" says Geo. R. Colbath, Alpenas Mich. which was so bad that at times I was forced to remain in bed. At last was induced to try kodol Dyspepsia Cure from which I received im- mediate relief and few bottles effected 0 complete cure"
