A LAND OF OPPORTUNITIES.
Inducements Held Out by Western
Canada Are Powerful.

A recent number of the Winnipeg
(Manitoba) Free Press contains an
excellent article on the prospects in
western Canada, q portion of which
we are pleased to reproduce.

claims OF tho Canadian West as q field

ada's great wheat belt, where every
man can pursue fortune without the
hindrance Of any discouraging handi-
cap.
THE inducements held out by West.
ern Canada are powerful and made
manifest by the great movement now
In progress. That the prospects are
considerably more than reasonably
certain Is borne out by the history Of
the country and its residents. The
promise Of gain is powerful. but when
added to 1t there is the prospect Of q
corresponding social and civil eleva.
ton, 1t should prove irresistible to
young men of q particularly desirable
class for any new coontry.
"The Canadian West Is alive with
opportunities for the young man who
aims at becoming more than a mere
atom In the civil and national fabric.
Some of the eager young fellows who
arrive on the prairies daily are des.
tined to become moro than merely
prosperous farmers. In the near fu.
ture great municipal and provincial
development will be in the hands of
the people. The stepping stone to
both financial prosperity and civil
prominence is, and will be, the farm.
For every professional opening there
are hundreds of agricultural openings.
The Canadian prairies are teemine
with opportunities for the honest and
Industrious of all classes, but they
are specially inviting to the ambitious
young man who seeks a field for the
energy and ability which he feels in,
herent within him. The familiar cry
Of Back to the soil!" Is more than
a vain sounding phrase when applied
to Western Canada"

SENATE ADOPTS RATE BILL
By a Practically Unanimous Vote, the Measure Re-
ceives Senatorial Assent, and Now Goes Back
to the House For Concurrence
in Amendments.

Washington, May 19.-After seven
~ days of almost continuous deliber-
alton, the senate, Friday, at 4:5S p. m.
passed the railroad rate bill by the
practically unanimous vote of II to 3.
The three negative votes were cast
by Senators Foraker, republican, Of
Ohio, and Morgan and Pettus, demo-
Gratis, Alabama.
The Purpose OF the DiIl.
The principal purpose of the rail-
road rate bill, passed Friday, is to
permit the interstate. commerce COM
mission to fix rates. The provision
comforting this authority is found in
The fourth section of the bill which
amends section Is of the interstate
commerce law so as to accomplish
this result. That section directs the
commission to investigate complaints
Of unjust and unreasonable charges
on the part Of the common carriers
in the transportation of persons or
property, or Of regulations or of prac-
tees affecting such charges. 1t also
authorizes an inquiry as to whether
the rates or practices are "unjustly

or prejudicial or otherwise in viola

the commission is empowered to de-

BREAD DYSPEPSIA.
The Digesting Element Left Out.

The Digesting Element Left Out.
Bread dyspepsia is common. 1t af-
fects the bowels because white bread is
nearly all starch, and starch is digested
in the intestines, not in the stomach
proper.
Up under the shell of the wheat berry
nature has provided a curious deposit
which is turned into diastase when 1t Is
subjected to the saliva and to the pam
creatic juices in the human intestines.
This diastase is absolutely necessary
to digest starch and turn 1t into grape
sugar, which is the next form; but that
part Of the wheat berry makes dark
-four. and the modern miller cannot
readily sell dark flour, SO natures val.
liable digester Is thrown out and the
human system must handle the starch
as best it can, without the help that ma
fure Intended.
Small wonder that appendicitis, peri
tOnitis, Constipation and all sorts of
trouble exist when we go SO contrary
TO natures law. The food experts that
perfected Grape-Nuts Food, knowing
these facts, made use in their expert
ments of the entire wheat and barley,
including all the parts, and subjected
them to moisture and long continued
warmth, which allows time and tho
proper conditions for developing the
diastase, outside of the human body.
In this way the starchy part is trans
formed into grape-sugar in a perfect
~ natural manner. without the use of
chemicals or any outside ingredients.
The little sparkling crystals Of grape
sugar can be seen on the pieces of
Grape-Nuts. This food therefore IL
naturally pre-digested and its use in
place of bread will quickly correct the
troubles that have been brought about
BY the too free use of starch In the
food. and that is very common in the
human race to-day.
Tho eeffct of eating Grape-Nuts ten
days or two weeks and the discontin-
uance OF ordinary white bread is very
marked. The user will gain rapidly in
strength and physical and mental
health.

If saying so would only make it so,
there would be much cause for gratifi-
cation in the opinion expressed by the
Pittsburg Press.
1.-THE tariff involves at most no
fundamental principle. 1t is merely
an administrative question, within
certain lines. Not even the most en-
phatic revisionists have the temerity
to demand free trade. All they want
Is a REIMBURSEMENT of schedules. They
admit that the country is prosperous
and that. the protective principle I'M
DERIVING our tariff policy should not
be disturbed. Manifestly, then, the
tariff is a question which can and
will wait. There are a dozen other
matters more p%ressingly in need of
regulation. Tariff revision talk now
would induce sleep anywhere, from a
crossroads political meeting to the
presidents cabinet"
Nevertheless. says the American
