lar in shape and normally rests in the
center Of the boat as shown. The
frame is constructed of number Of
alright compartments and is open in
the center. Suspended from the open.
ing is a net and around the outer
edges are rope handles, attached to
cork floats. The sides Of the raft serve
as seats in the boat, and in event Of
the latter capsizing. it will float away
from the boat, affording a life-saving
means to those able to grasp it.. By
using air-tight compartments the raft
will hold up several persons, and the
net within affords a protection to
stand within the raft. The rope han.
dies are also easily grasped. When

can be rescued by the crew Of the
boat, who in the meantime may be en-.
gagged in the rescue of other unfortu.
mates.

CURIOUS PEASANT SUPERSTITION
Horses Ridden BY the Spirits Winds
That Watt Thanks Of the Dead.


That Watt Thanks Of the Dead.
It was formerly almost universally
believed that on All Saints day the
dead were permitted to- leave their.
tombs and to roam abroad, says the
London Tribune. In some parts OF
Britanny, and IN other places, the
peasants even now are careful to. lock
up their horses IA the stables lest the
dead, rising from their graves IN the
early morning, should seize them and
ride furfously to some distant spot
they may have frequented in life.
In the Northern departments people
refrain from slamming doors sharply
on this day lest they should hurt an
invisible spirit entering, and the chill.
dren are forbidden to throw stones
into the hedges or trees for fear that
the missiles should wound the soul OF
some departed relation or friend how.
erfng about In them.
In A1sace little lamps, lanterns and
glimmering tapers arranged in tho
form of cross are seen burning all
night long close to the ground in many
. cemetery. They are destined to re.
joice the souls as they rise from their
graves.
Perhaps the most common Of all
superstitions concerning the dead Is
that about noon on All Saints day
there comes gentle gust OF wind.
The peasants In the fields raise their
heads in the hope and expectation Of
feeling II, for it is the dead waiting
their thanks to the living for their
prayers and remembrance Of them.

7s1illno UP THE1 CANADIAN wgsr
III American settler 10 Welcomed
:'5,s, B rs 60 Canada.

4 number Of the leading newspa.
Dsts On this side Of the line have been
aoticing the growth OF the Canadian
+ Wet IN recent years. and draw atten.
ton to the fact that there seems to be
% abatement Of the influx of settlers
% that great grain-growing country.
The Buffalo Express thus refers to the
subject:
Canada West continues to grow.
There were ala homesteads entries
I there in July OF this year, as against
3.571 in July. 1905. Canada plumes
herself over this fact, with becoming
pride. But what appears to make our
aeiEhbors happiest is the statement
that of these 4.174 homesteaders,
1919 were from this side Of the line.
Little Is said about the 81 Canadians
who recrossed the border to take up
homes in Canada West, or of the sos
from Great Britain, or of the 1896
from nom British countries. It ap-
pears that the item in this July report
that makes Canada rejoice most is
this Of the 1912 American farmers
who decided to try their fortunes in
Canada West
1.-THE compliment is deserved. The
1912 were mostly from Dakota and
other farming states, and 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
". In every way, they are welcome
over there"
As the Express well 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
of 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-
pears elsewhere, says that the differ
ence between the manners and GUS
toms of the farmer from Dakota, Ore.
gon or 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.

CHAPTER xxlll.-(contInued.)

The sergeant raised his hat, and Mr.
and Mrs. Billery shook hands with
him. Billery was SO surprised and de-
lighted at being married that he want
cd to introduce Mrs. Billery to the
walters, to porters, railway guards
anybody in short, for the mere beau
tiful novelty of being able to say, my
wife," And Belle was just as pleas.
urably amazed at being married as
Billery, himself, and whenever he had
a chance of saying "My wife, or ma
femme" in her hearing her heart
glowed within her, and reflected itself
in her face in smiles.
"Mr. Holt and L." said Billery, chad
q rather interesting professional asso-
citation with each other once upon a
time"
Indeed" said Belle.
II am in Paris, Mr.. Billery," said the
sergeant "in regard to that very iden-
teal case to-day"
You've got on to new track, I
suppose?" asked Billery.
mo, SIR" the sergeant answered,
gravely, its the old track. We've got
him this time, fancy"
Good heavens!" said Billery. "You
don't mean to say that that absurd old
suspicion is still seriously entertain
ed?"
Il do, SIR" Holt returned. "The case
goes to trial this time for certainty"
"Well," said Billery. you'll find that
you've made the error ,of lifetime.
The man you are following is as inno-
cent as you are"
I'VE make mistakes sometimes" re-
piled Holt. But there's tremendous
deal in this case as will have to be ex-
planned away. There's one fact come
to light quite lately which looks as If
it clinched it."
"I'll stake my life on it," said Billery,
you're wrong"
Il shall be a good deal surprised If
It turns out So" Holt Answered. But
In any case the party is under close OBJ
servation now, and I'm open to bet a
6'-pun' note he's under arrest to-mor-
! row."
| I'VE return tonight to London, Mrs.
Billery and I. ought to tell you that
I am much more strongly on his side
now than ever was against him. l
shall feel it my duty to warn him of
what is going to happen"
You're free to do what you like in
that respect, SIR" said the sergeant.
IF your news should set him on the
move he'll be nabbed at once. You'd
better put him on his guard in that
particular likewise"
II think you need have no fear OF
any attempted evasion" said Billery,
with a laugh.
s"We shall see, SIR" Holt replied; II
shall have everything in hand tonight,
I expect, and shall be back in town to-
morrow evening. If there's any infor-
nation at my disposal as you'd care to
use professionally, sir, you're welcome
to it. We owe you that much, sir, for
the work we're indebted to you. Good
morning, sir. Good morning, ma'am."
"Why, Hamilton" cried Belle, rye
look quite miserable. What is it,"
1.-THE police believe that Aloysius
Brangwyn murdered his uncle" Billery
made answer.
ooh, no, MOI" cried Belle. II never
liked the man, but can't believe him
capable of that. Ye're going to warn
him."
'Tm going to warn him." said Bill
cry. II have reason to believe that he
has such proofs of innocence in his
possession that they will never dare
lay hand upon him. He must be
ready with them"

The young people of the United
Presbyterian church extend a very
cordial invitation to all the young
men and m OF our city to be
present at our Young Peoples Chris
tian Union which is held at seven
o'clock every Sunday evening.
1t was announced that Sunday
would be the last that Prof. Mann
would have charge of the Presbyterian
choir which he has so successfully
conducted the past five years. AS a
sort OF farewell he arranged a special
program Of music for Sunday evening
in which he introduced the various
members OF the choir in solos, duets,
quartettes and anthems, combining a
splendid program OF sacred song
seldom equalled in a city OF this size.
The particular members present Sum
day evening, we believe, have been
students in vocal music under Prof.
Mann and their development under
his training is highly complimentary
to his ability. There are some men,
bers Of this choir who, with continued
application, are bound to attract more
than ordinary attention and it gives
us pleasure to speak encOuragingly Of
these young people who are devoting
their time to this praisworthy art, and
we trust there is a happy and brilliant
future in store for each one Of them.
In conclusion We would say that the
work Of Prof. Mann and his excellent
choir has been splendidly supple
mented by their accOmpanist, Miss
Westcott, and we are sure that the
choir fully Appreciate her valuable aid
in practice work and in the production
Of their programs. 1t is not rejecting
upon Miss Wescott's ability as a
musician to say that she has improved
with the choir and her mastery of that
huge instrument, in the time she has
been engaged, is a matter for con-
graduation and her playing on the
pipe organ affords a great deal OF
pleasure to those who attend the
Presbyterian church.
