when the question Of matrimony Is
brought up Half n million dollars is
no uncommon figure for husband in
the Philippines, and, strange as it may
seem, such offers have been posted with
out causing an army officer to so much
as polish the buttons on his uniform.
The Filipino maidens do not seem to
awaken that sentimental something
called love in the hearts of United
States army officers, and 1t is also ap-
parent that native gold with n wife at
tached doesn't look good to them.
Army men returned from the Phil
ippines are authority for the state
ment that there are plenty of chances
in the islands for an officer who wants
a Filipino girl for wife. Only re-
Gently Gen. Ozario of Ca-ite, one o.
the richest natives in the islands. made
4 surprisingly generous offer to any
pair of army officers who would take
his two daughters Off his hands. He
announced that he would bestow a
dowry of 100000 on each of the young
women If they would find officers for
husbands. But the girls are still sim
gle, and the surprising part of the in
cident Is that Gen. Ozario was in po-
sltion to deliver the goods. He has
both daughters and money, and it
would do his old heart million dollars
worth of good to secure two stalwart
American soldiers for sons in-law, but
they refuse to even nibble at the golden
bait.
Other wealthy Filipino parents make
similar offers with exactly the same
results. While 1t Is true thnt several
white men have married Filipino girls,
the custom has not spread to officers
of the regular army, and only one vol
,unteer officer has done so. Gen. Oza-
rios offer was restricted to commits
stoned officers, but others are not SO
particular. Still, the number of takers
is comparatively small, and Filipino
bellies really go a-begglng among I'm

Handy New Bnrrel.

For farmers who preserve and OK
port fruit, as well as for growers, but
ter merchants. sea captains and many
others, a new barrel has much interest.
In order to ascertain the condition of
fruit or provisions which are stored in
an ordinary barrel man must either
empty the barrel or at any rate. re-
move the greater portion of Its con-
tents. If he uses this new barrel, how
ever. all this trouble will be unneces-
sary. since one of its slaves is NOV
able and whenever he desires to inspect
the contents of the barrel all he need
do is to move this stave to one side
After he has satisfied himself that
the contents are in good condition he
can replace the stave, and it will be
held firmly in proper position by the
hoops.
Another advantage is that IN this
way fresh air can at any time be adj
mitted to all parts of the barrel, aud

One hundred miles on snowshoes, in

Such is the record of Mr.. and Mrs. c.
P. Reid, of Telegraph Creek.
Mr. Reid conducts hotel at Tele-
graph Creek and some time ago decided
to make the journey to Vancouver for
the purpose of purchasing goods, and
thought also of paying visit to his
old home in Smiths Falls, Ont. The
distance between the creek and Fort
Wrangel is about 100 miles, and Mr..
Reid intended to make the journey
alone. However, his wife pleaded with
him to allow her to accompany him, sue
being firm in her belief that the tramp
was none too long for to undertake.
For several weeks previous to the
commencement of the journey Mrs.
Reid took long tramps, in preparation
for the one-hundred-mile journey, so
when the time arrived for her and her
husband to start she was in splendid
form for the trying ordeal.
Mrs. Reid is about % years of age and
n fine, athletic-looking woman. The
distance was covered in five days. At
the end of the first day Mrs. Reid felt
somewhat fatigued. as she and her hus-
band had cut merry clip. Both car
ried immense blankets, and when night
came, after cooking their evening meal,
they rolled themselves up in their blan.
kets and slept like tops until the morn

Mrs. Reid said she never felt better
in her life and would think nothing of
making the trip again.

Farm Hints,

Neighborhoods must pull together in
these times.
The man who has not an Unborn fond
ness for horses should raise the steer.
Milk is great egg food, rs 1t is
chemically similar to the white of an
egg.
Massachusetts farmers who have
tried it do not give encouraging reports
of alfalfa.
Corn should be grown extensively,
and the silo is the cheapest method of
preserving it.
There is only one way of making
poultry mature early, and that is to
keep them growing.
i English beans are upright, rank,
aushy growers and have large, oval,
arse pods, and they are usually shell
ed and eaten as peas. They are rich in
flavor.
Don't keep drug store for your poul-
try. They will do great deal better

take drugs, teas and all sorts of condi-
ton powders. Doctor only when sick
