they again used vile and threatening
language.
At this time Hallctt fired one more

Hailett then retired to his home. and

Pany who represented all the

last Wednesday, "does not look to
be more ;han thirty years of age, and
had he not admitted that he had

by recent revelations, il is quite
possible that Mr.. Wilson is familiar
with the book OF Ezekiel.

WESTERN CAMADA'S
MARVELLOUS CROP RETURNS

The increase in the crop returns of
the Canadian West, in the past seven
years has approached the marvellous.
andsthere Is no reason to believe that
Z corresponding increase will not re-
suit for many years to come. The in
creaseShas been particularly noticeable
In what was formerly known as the
Northwest Territories, but which, on
September 1st. 1905. became the prov
inces 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 mentioned. and more favor
able showing cannot be pointed to
In any other country during q like
period.

Wu Ting-fang, who was a guest al
recent wedding in Washington, was
approached after the ceremony by the
best man and jocularly asked to &C
over to the young couple and pro-
nounce Chinese parental blessing
The obliging Wu Immediately COM
piled. Placing his hands on the blush
ing bride and shaking groom, he said:
MAY every new year bless you with
a man child offspring until they shall
number twenty-five in all. May these
twenty-five man-children offspring pre-.
sent you with twenty-five times
twenty-five grandchildren and may
these grandchildren -"
1t is said that the little bride grew
hysterical about this time, says the
New York Times, and the best man
made another request of Wu-this
time to desist.

Around the fireside or about the
well-lighted family reading table dur
ing the winter evenings the children
and grOwn-ups can play with their
wits and see how many words can be
made.
20 people making the greatest num-
Der of words will each receive little
box containing $1,000 gold piece.
10 people will each win one box con-
tanning a $500 gold piece
800 people will each win box con.
tanning $1.00 in paper money and one
person who makes the highest number
of words over all contestants will re-
ceive box containing $4,000 in gold
1t is really a most fascinating bit OF
fun to take up the list evening after
evening and see how many words can
be added.
A few rules are necessary for abso-
lutte fair play.
Any word authorized by Webster's
dictionary will be counted, but no
name of person. Both the singular
and plural can be used, as for instance
grape" and grapes"
The letters in "Y-I-O-Grape- Nuts"
may be repeated in the same word.
Geographical names authorized by
Webster will be counted.
Arrange the words in alphabetical
classes, all those beginning with A to-
gether and those beginning with E to
come under e. etc.
When you are writing down the
words leave some spaces, in the A. r.
and other columns, to fill in later as
new words come to you, for they will
spring into mind every evening.
1t Is almost certain that some con.
testants will tie with others. In such
cases prize Identical In value and

one will be requested to send with the

OLD ROSE COMES TO ITS OWN.
Paris Hears 1t Will Be the Fashionable e
Color for Spring.

SOiSt iSI SEi
Opinions may differ about the fash
ionabie hue for winter gowns, but
from the tidings which come from
Paris there will be no doubt of the
smart color for the spring. Lavender,
violets and mauves, greens, golden
brown and tan, must all go down be.
fore old rose. Broadcloth is to contin-
ue the vogue for the fabric, but old
rose is crowned queen. Miss Roose-
welt will have an old rose broadcloth
among her walking suits, and it will
be trimmed with Persian embroidery.
Old rose is just beginning to glimmer
among the gowns at ultra-fashionable
gatherings, and it adorns only women
who are always in the vanguard of
style and who pay big sum to Paris
modistes for the first hints of coming
fashion. Mrs. Perry Belmont has an
old rose velvet which is one of the
handsomest toilets of the winter.
