All nay plans are continually thwarted:

lnnis; and in that matter l will have
my way, in spite Of resistance, threats,
tears or entreaties"
You will never live to see Innis we'd
ded to such a false knave." replied Mrs.
Mckee. The moss will gather upon
your bones first
He will soon own a great deal of
land on the south side of the Kentucky
River"
Just enough to bury his vile body
in" said Mrs. Mckee
The Indians have promised it to him
when Boonesborough. Harrodsburg and
Logan are leveled with the ground. and
not a white settler has foothold in
this country" rejoined Mckee.
That time will never be-" responded
the Indian spouse "The white stations
will remain long after the red men have
lost their power. The descendants of
Daniel Boone will build their houses in
peace upon the graves of the Wyan-
dots, the Sha xnees, and the Cherokees."
Accused prophecies of evil! What
will stop your dismal croakings? Your
boding voice sounds in my ear when any
great project is started that promises
well to all eyes but yours. Even at this
very moment Boonesborough may be in
flames; for Girty and Du Quesne have
already attacked it with hundreds of
Indians"
They'll fail and go away like whip
ped dogs" responded Mrs. Mckee.
With threatening glance at each,
Mckee arose and left the cavern.

pause.

frmative. In a short time they both
issued from the subterranean dwelling,
and walked in the direction of the sta

OVER SEA HABIT.

Difference on This side the Water.
The persistent effect upon the heart
of caffeine in coffee cannot but result
in the gravest conditions, in time.
Each attack of the drug (and that
means each cup of coffee weakens the
organ a little more, and the end is al
most a matter of mathematical demon
Stration. A lady writes from West
ern State:
Il am of German descent, and it
was natural that l should learn at
very early age to drink coffee. Until
was % years old 1 drank scarcely
anything else at my meals.
"A few years ago l began to be af-
fected by a steadily increasing ner
vousness. which eventually developed
into Il distressing heart trouble that
made me very weak and miserable.
Then, some three years ago, was add
ed asthma in its worst form My suf-
ferings from these things can be bet
ter imagined than described
During all this time my husband
realized more fully than l did that cot
fee was injurious to me, and made

Finally it was decided a few
months ago, to quit the use of coffee
absolutely, and to adopt Postum Food

Just as soon as the poison from

Postum began to build me up, and 1
am now fully recovered from all my
nervousness, heart trouble and asthma.

Western Canada. MarveIou. Crop

The increase in the crop returns o.
the Canadian West, in the past seven
years, has approached the marvellous.
and there is no reason TO believe that
a corresponding increase will not re-
suit for many years to come. The in
crease has been particularly noticeable
in what was formerly known as the
Northwest Territories, but which, on
Sept. 1, 1905, became the provinces of
Alberta and Saskatchewan. From the
official returns we find the following
results in the acreage sown to wheat,
oats and barley, in the years mention
ed, and more favorable showing can
not be pointed to in any other country

SOME NEW DELlCACIES
Rouen Ducks and Fattened Hen
the Vogue for Dainty LuncheOns

ROuen Ducks and Fatfened Hens
the Vogue for Dainty LuncheOns.
Pate de foie gras must look to it's
laurels This delicate food-the en-
larged liver of goose-has long been
! considered in a class by itself as an
expensive piece de resistance imported
from abroad. Now New York society
has grown tired of the monotony of
pate de foie gras, ana the ingenuity of
French caterers has been put to the
test to supply substitute, says the
San Francisco Chronicle.
AS a result, the importation of pou-
l2rde du Mans, or fat hen Of LIE Mans,
is growing rapidly. This bird, like
the Strasburg goose, spends the last
three or four months of her life in a
box hardly big enough to permit her
to move. She is given plenty of food,
calculated to make her meat tender
and white and to create plenty of fat.
Wien fattened, such a hen weighs as
much as a small turkey and brings Sc
in the New York market
Rouen ducks are also becoming very
popular. They sell for 81 apiece.
These ducks are treated much as are
the fat hens Of LIE Mans The polite
name for them is ''canards de Rouen.'
Calville apples, which cost 70 cents
to 81 each, and which are grown in
Normandy and near Turenne, are
prominent among the absurdly expen-
sive fruits which wealthy New York
ers now delight to eat. They are
grown with great care, each apple
bearing picture on its thin, delicate
skin, etched there by the sun. The
pictorial design is cut out of tissue
paper and pasted over the apple skin,
and the sun does the rest
Belgian asparagus, selling at 81 to
IS a bunch. is also finding a ready
market in New York.
An imported pheasant, properly
served with truffles, costs SO, but
hundreds of them are being imported
every week.

less Hands Were Tied-'Would
Have Died but for Cuticura."
my little son, when about a year
and half old, began to have sores
come out on his face. l had a ply
stefan treat him, but the sores grew
worse. Then they began to come on
his arms, then on other parts of his
body, and then one came on his chest
worse than the others. Then l called
another physician. Still he grew worse
At the end Of about a year and a half
of suffering he grew so bad l had to
tie his hands in cloths at night to keep
him from scratching the sores and tear
ing the flesh. He got to be a mere
skeleton, and was hardly able to walk.
My Aunt advised me to try Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. | sent to the drug
store and got cake of Soap and a box
of the Ointment, and at the end of
about two months the sores were all
well. He has never had any sores of
any kind since. He is now strong and

1t will be seen that the number of
acres sown TO wheat, oats and barley
in 1898 was 429,749, and that this had
increased in 1904 to 1878 The to-
tai crop in the cereals mentioned was
9,033, 297 bushels in 1898, and III 1904
it had grown to the magnificent total of
35,413,522. In the year just closed the
forward movement in the agriculture
of the West has been the wonder and
envy of the world. New sections Of the
country have been placed under tribute
10 the pillow and harrow, and the grain
area has been largely increased. This
is particularly the case where it has
been demonstrated that Alberta Red"
winter wheat may be successfully
grown, and along the lines of the new
railways towards the center of the
country, where mixed farming prevails.
The future of the Canadian West is
assured, and for years to come it is
bound to be the land of promise to the
agriculturist of every nation and O.
every cline, and the land of opportu-
nifty to every settler within its bounds.
