which has gone into Manitoba, Sas-

within five years a thousand million
bushels of grain will be raised in the
belt between Winnipeg on the east and
Calgary and Edmonton on the west,
running northward $50 miles from the
border.
To carry away this crop the Grand
Trunk Pacific is being built from Win

The Canadian Northern Is building up
to Hudson bay, and a third road will
parallel the Canadian Pacific, which

that Mr. Hill already has line from

These will be a part of the Canadian
system You will also notice that the
road has n lot of spurs. like the teeth
of n comb. running northward from the
main line TO the Canadian border and
thus giving plenty of cross cuts for the
handling of freight.
Mr. Hill tells me that he has secured
plenty of land for terminals at both
ends OF the line and has purchased a
large tract at Medicine Hat. station
on the Canadian Pacific, on the west
ern boundary of Saska tchewan, about
two-thirds of the way from Winnipeg
to Vancouver, where the repair shops
for this branch of the Great Northern
road will be located. His agents have
also filed plats of the new line for
distance of 100 miles east and 200
miles west of Medicine Hat. as re-
quired by the laws of Canada The
rest of the line has not been located,
but the engineers are in the field all

cATARRH A GERM DISEASE.
Breathe Air Medicated by Hyome ano
Kill the Germs.

Now that physicians and scientists
universally agree that catarrh is a
germ disease. the reason for the fail
uIe of the old-fashioned stomach-dosing
in this trouble is readily seen.
Prior to the discovery of Hyomei. a
treatment which cures catarrh by fill
ing the air you breathe with germ-kill-
ing and healing medication, statistics
showed that at least 81 out of every
100 persons in this state were suffering
from catarrh of some form.
The treatment with Hyomei is very
simple and pleasant; small inhaler
comes with every outfit. and three or
four times day HyOmei is breathed
through this. making the air at that
time like that found on the mountains
where the pine forests give off their
fragrant and healing balsams.
The complete outfit costs but one
dollar, while extra bottles can be OBJ
tanned for 80 cents. II. o. Rolls has
seen such remarkable results from the
use of Hyomei that he sells it under
an absolute guarantee that it costs
nothing unless it cures.
