FILLING UP THE CANADIAN VEST
The American Settler 10 Welcomes.
to Canada.

A number Of the leading newspa.
pers on this side OF the line have been,
noticing the growth OF the Canadian
West in recent years, and draw atten-
ton to the fact that there seems to be-
no abatement OF the influx of settler.
to that great grain-growing country.
The Buffalo Express thus refers to the
subject:
Canada West continues to grow.
There were Ala homesteads entries.
there in July OF this year, as against
1871 in July. 1905. Canada plumes
herself over this fact, with becoming
pride. But what appears to make our
neighbors happiest is the statement
that OF these Ala homesteaders.
1,212 were from this side Of the line.
Little is said about the 81 Canadians.
who recrossed the border to take nm
homes in Canada West, or Of the sos
from Great Britain, or OF the 1925
from non-British countries. 1t ap-
pears that the item in this July report
that makes Canada rejoice most is
this CT the 1912 American farmers
who decided to try their fortunes in
Canada West
The compliment Is deserved. The.
1,?12 were mostly from Dakota and
Other farming states, ami go into
Canada fitted better than any other
class of immigrants for developing the.
new country. They take capital with
them, too. say Canadian papers proud
ly. In every way. they are welcome
over there"
AS the Express we'll says, the
American Is welcomed to Canada, and
the reasons given are sufficient to in
vite the welcome. The American
farmer knows thoroughly the farming
conditions that prevail in the Cana
dian prairie provinces, and is aware
CT every phase OF agricultural devel-
opment in recent years.
In practical knowledge Of what IS
wanted to get the largest return for
labor and investment he is by long
odds superior to any European set
tier. He knews what is required to
bring success, and he Is able and will
ing to do it, and his future causes no
apprehension to the successful Cana
dian farmer. The agent Of the Cana
dian Government, whose address ap-
I.ars elsewhere, says that the differ
ehce between the manners and Gus
toms OF the farmer from Dakota, Ore
gon 2r Minnesota and the farmer from
Manitoba, Saskatchewan or Alberta
is not nearly so marked as that be-
tween the farmer OF the Maritime
provinces and the Ontario tiller of the
soil. Hence the welcome to the free
homesteads Of the Canadian West,
and there are hundreds OF thousands
OF them left, that is extended to the
settler from the Western States.

An Odd Cure.

Are you a sufferer from Indigestion?
Here is a curious remedy. Rev. Johr
Spencer of Duluth has brought back
with him from Ceylon one of the most
curious presents in the world. Riding
on an elephant" he said the other day,
behind a native prince on a hunting
expedition, the conversation CHANGED
TO turn on indigestion, TO which l said
i was subject. The prince at once
pulled out black leather button kind
OF thing, which he was wearing on a
string round his neck, under his
clothes. What's that?' said ]. "A n.y.
ena's snout,' was the startling reply
What for?' To cure indlg as.ion.' How
can it do this? 1t is very simple. A
hyena gets its living by digging up and
crunching old bones. Now, il pos
sesses in its snout this peculiar virtue
that when its nose approaches any
thing hard, such as bones, those tough
substances instantly grow soft, and
enable tho animal to eat them with
comfort and benefit. So you will find
df you keep this charm hanging round
your neck the proximity of the hyena's
nose, though dried up and lifeless, will
soften your food. however indigestible,
To such an extent that you Will never
again suffer from Indigestion

THE STORY.

THE day on which the children of
Israel crossed Jordan was a day
of terror in Jericho. The spies which
the king had sent out to watch the
movements of the Israelites had re-
turned in haste telling strange sto-
ries of how the waters of the Jordan
Rad divided and the people and all
their locks and herds had crossed
over on the dry bed of the river, and
were even now on their way to attack
the city.
In their excitement and alarm the
10000 fighting men which had crossed
the river in advance had been magni-
fed into a great army, and quickly
the orders were given that the city
gates be closed tight and a double
guard be placed upon the wall All
the fighting men of the city were
speedily summoned and slept upon
their arms that night, expecting that
an assault might be made upon the
walls under cover OF darkness.
That was terrible night i'm Jeri-
