October is royal month. The
richest hues are hers, and into her
lap the most sumptuous treasures
of forest and fruit, orchard and
flower.garden are poured. The out.

find every fiber of your being fairly
tngling with life and hope and en-
ergy. In your rambles every sense is
charmed and life seems a glorious
thing. something to be thankful for,
because OF its rich blessings and
opportunities. Now Is the time
to hang your minds gallery with
bright pictures to enliven the gray
days that are coming and to store
up strength for the pinch Of winters
cold.

An old darky who had not been to

night at prayer meeting. His presence
at the meeting was commented on by

Cures Her in Five Days.

"After my granddaughter Of about
seven years had been cured of the
measles, she was attacked about a
fortnight later by a furious itching and
painful eruption all over her body,
especially the upper part of it, forming
watery and bleeding sores, especially
under the arms, of considerable size.
She suffered a great deal and for three
weeks we nursed her every night,
using all the remedies we could think
of. Nothing would help. We tried the
Cuticura Remedies and after twenty
four hours we noted considerable i'm
provement, and after using only one
complete set of the Cuticura Remedies,
in five consecutive days the little one,
much to our joy, had been entirely
cured, and has been we'll for a long

Pure Food.

The pure food law does not prohibit
the sale of Cream of Tartar Baking
Powders because Cream of Tartar is
as pure as Alum-but it is a well
known fact that a baking powder in
which Alum is used instead of Cream of
Tartar is less injurious. DR.. Herman
Reinbold, the expert German chemist,
in a recent official report concerning
Baking Powders, declares that a pure
Alum baking powder is better and less
injurious than the so-called Cream Of
Tartar powders. He says that if the
quantity Of alum contained in a suf.
fcient quantity Of baking powder for
a batch of bread or cakes for an ordi-
nary family, be concentrated to one
mouthful of food, and taken into the
stomach of any n person, no matter
how delicate, it could do no harm.

of q few days since contains account
Of the success that followed the eff
forts Of William Knowles, an English
man who located near Winnipeg, Man

tiers giving experiences of settlers,
and should be encouraging to those
who are looking about for a new
home in which they may better their
conditions. The following is a copy
of the article referred to:
William Knowles, who c%ultivates
some twelve acres of land just below
Middlechurch ferry On east side OF the
Red River has probably as fine a dis
play Of horticultural products as any
in Manitoba. The whole of his hold
ing is in a high state Of cultivation
and literally crowded with splendid
vegetable specimens, which have for
tunately escaped damage by hail, al
though heavy storms have more thar
once occurred within a few miles. The
potatoes are a wonderful crop, and he
expects to raise 1900 bushels from
his patch of Az acres. A half dozen
of tubers selected yesterday average
more than a pound each. Adjoining
the potatoes may be see a marvellous
collection Of tomatoes. There are 600
plants, all growing under an enor-
nous weight of fruit. One single
stock picked yesterday contained
eighteen tomatoes and weighed four
pounds. This extraordinary example
of marvellous growth, together with
some of the potatoes were sent to the
Free Press Office.
The proprietor was the first in
town with several specimens, includ-
ing green corn. The season has been
favorable for onions, and one square
patch of nearly an acre is looking re-
markedly healthy. In addition there
are good crops Of cabbages, caulifiow-
er, turnips, parsnips, carrots, pump
kins, marrows, cucumbers, celery, peas,
lettuce, rhubarb, etc. The floral de-
partment has not been neglected and
a charming display Of all the well
known blooms were shown, including
a specially choice lot of asters.
Mr.. Knowles, who gained most of
his gardening experience in England,
is loud in his praise of Manitoba soil
for vegetable raising, and is gratified
with the result of his first attempt at
extensive horticulture.
