COSTLY PRESSURE.


Heart and Nerves Fail on Coffee.
A resident of great western State
puts the case regarding stimulants with
a comprehensive brevity that is admir-
able. He says:
Il am 56 years old and have had
considerable experience with stimu-
lants. They are all alike-a mortgage
on reserved energy at ruinous interest.
As the whip stimulates but does not
strengthen the horse, so do stimulants
act upon the human system. Feeling
this way, l gave up coffee and all other
stimulants and began the use of Post
um Food coffee some months ago. The
beneficial results have been apparent
from the first. The rheumatism that I
used TO suffer from has left me, / sleep
sounder, my nerves are steadier and
my brain clearer And | bear testi-
mony also to the food value of Postum
something that is LACKING in coffee"

Will Open Up Immense Area of Free
Homestead Lands.
The railway facilities of Western
Canada have been taxed to the utter
most in recent years to transfer the
surplus grain crop to the eastern mar
kets and the seaboard. The large in
fiux of settlers and the additional area
put under crop have added largely TO
the grain product, and Notwithstanding
the increased railway facilities that
have been placed at the disposal of the
public, the question of transportation
has proved to be a serious one
1t will, therefore. be good news to
ada to know that an authoritative
statement has been given out by Mr.. &.
Nj. Hays. president of the Grand Trunk
Pacific Railway, that that railway will
do its share towards moving the crop
OF 1907 from Alberta, Saskatchewan
and Manitoba to tidewater, and thus
assist in removing serious obstacle
which has faced the settler during re-
cent years Mr.. Hays. who has just
completed a trip from Portage la Prai-
RE to Edmonton in a prairie schooner,
a distance of 735 miles, which was COW
cred in eighteen days, is enthusiastic
about the country.
This will be gratifying to settlers in
the Canadian West, even if Mr.. Hays
declines to be bound to a time limit
with the exactitude of a stop-watch.
The Grand Trunk Pacific road will be

STORY OF LUCKY" BALDWIN.
H.w He Got His Start In the Early
nf nj

In 1853, or more than a half century
ago, little party of gold seekers with
a meager outfit of horses and wagons
started for California from the village
of Racine, Wis, says Outing. In com
mand of this adventurous expedition
was young man who took with him
his wife and infant daughter. His
name was f. J. Baldwin, and he made
a wise choice in shaking from his rest
less feet the dust of tanner civ;liza-
ton. He needed larger theater of
action for his pent-up and surging ac-
tivities. While trailing through the
mountains of Utah the pioneers were
attacked by Indians. who were beaten
off during a six-hour fight in which
young Baldwin killed their chief. After
six months Of hardship. the party
reached Hangtown Oater called Placer
ville) in California.
Here Baldwin tarried and began
placer mining. He appears to have
been no more than an ordinary red
shirted argonaut meeting the ups and
downs of mining luck, until the discov-
cry of the Comstock lode at Virginia
City. Thither he drifted and discovered
that his natural bent was gambling
with the mines that other men had
opened. Amid whirlwind of specula-
ton, he fought his way with such sue
cess that he doomed from the smoke in
few months as Lucky" Baldwin. the
man who had cleaned up $7,50O,000 in
the gigantic deals in the stock Of the
Ophir mines.
San Francisco was the mecca of
those lucky sons of fortune who were
rearing a great city by the Golden
Gate. As a stock and mining specu-
lator. Lucky" Baldwin shone resplend-
ent. but he was also a loyal son of San
Francisco. He built hotels and theaters
and business blocks, even while he was
amazing that far. from conservative
community by madly freakish extrav-
agances.
In a very lucid interval he bought
all the Spanish grants he could find
near Los Angeles and there spent a
million In making this ranch Of hissnot
only splendidly productive property.
but also oae of the most beautiful es'
tates ever laid out in this or any other
country. 1t was his hobby, his pet
and he planted miles of avenues with
noble shade trees, and made wonder
full tropical gardens, so that. today his
home is surrounded by paradise Of
vernal beauty.

The population of France is about
40,U00,000; the wealth of France is
nearly $45.000.O00. Robert f. Skinner,
in some recent statistics, shows how
evenly this wealth is distributed. The
number of estates administered in 1904
was 394, 7S7, and of these one-half were
for values ranging from less than
$4,000 to little under 100000. Only
three were 100000.
