Points About the Saddle.

A well known horseman, in speaking
of the sport Of riding in the United
States, recently said:
although there are a number of
good riders in this country, very few
men, except in the west and south,
seem to know or care much about the
saddle-that is, the way it is built
They simply take what their dealer
gives them. Ia England it is usual
for riders to have their saddles made
to order ard they generally know what
to order too.
"a good saddle fits both the horse
and the man. 1t should be roOmy ev-
erywhere and especially so in the pam
els if you are heavy. The throat
should not be so narrow as to cause
pain or so wide as to wabble. Plain
flaps are most comfortable and bust
nesslike. A felt pad or at least a good
saddle cloth should always be used and
to give a trim appearance it should be
cut to the outlines of the saddle. 1t
should be frequently washed and
SuQnou. SLlEEupS SIOulu Ue open, NluC
and heavy, so that the feet can be
readily freed in case Of a spill.
"A proper fitting saddle will stick
with very loose girths and you can find
where it fits by walking the horse
around a few minutes before mounting
with the girths unbuckled. The horse
will shift the saddle to the exact place
where it is most comfortable. When
through with your ride remove the sad
die at once and battle the back with
cold water, following this, if possible,
with an alcohol shampoo"

Blood Gets Sour.

At this time of year, says a we'll
known authority, the Kidneys become
weak, clogged and inactive, failing to
filter out the poisons and acids, which
sour the blood, causing not only IA
cial and bodily eruptions, but the
worst forms of Rheumatism, Nervous
and Stomach troubles, Backache and
painful, annoying Urinary Affections.
1t is worth any ones time now to
get from some good prescription phar-
macy the following ingredients: Fluid
Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce
Compound Kargon, one ounce; Com
pound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Mix by shaking well in a bot
tie and take in teaspOonful doses after
your meals and at bedtime.
This simple homemade mixture Will
force the Kidneys to normal, healthy
action, so they will filter and strain all
uric acid and poisonous waste matter
from the blood, and eXpel this in the
urine. at the same time restoring the
full blood count''-that is, 80 per cent
red blood corpuscles- which is abso-
lutely Indispensable TO perfect health.

Rapid Growth.

The most remarkable instance of rap
id growth was recorded by the French
academy in 1929. 1t was a boy 6 years
of age, ) feet inches in height. At
the age of > his voice changed; at 6
his beard had grown and he appeared a
man of 80. He possessed great .physi-
cal strength and could easily lift to
MS shoulders and carry bags of grains
weighing 200 pounds. His decline was
as rapid as his growth. At 8 his hair
and beard were gray, at 10 he tOttered

hands became palsied; at - he died
with every outward sign of extreme
old age.

Churchbridge Sask., December 1, 1906.
To the Editor-Dear Sir:
came to this country from the State
OF Wisconsin three years ago, and must
say that | am greatly pleased with the
outlook in this Western country. For
my own part / am entirely satisfied
With the progress l have made since
coming here. have raised excellent
crops of grain of all varieties Last
season nay wheat averaged % bushels
Of wheat to the acre, oats so and bar
Ley 40.
We had splendid garden this year,
ripening successfully tomatoes, musk
melons, water melons, sweet corn, and
kindred sorts.
The country is well adapted to wheat
growing and mixed farming, and to my
mind it is the best country under the
sun for man with a family and small
means, as it is possible for a man to
commence farming operations with
much less capital than is required in
the older settled countries.
The climate is all that could be de
sired, being very healthy and invigo-
rating.
My wife came out about six months
ago, and although inclined to be deli
cate in the old home she has enjoyed
the best of health since coming here.
In short, | am more than satisfied
with the land Of MY adoption, and
am also satisfied with the laws of the
country.
Yours very truly,

Go1:nS foc The Bcide

The giving Of gowns to the bride has
become a fancy Of the season. and on
the occasion Of the marriage Of the
niece OF the Baron Robert de Rothschild.
The bride received many gowns. most Of
which were put up in boxes in pattern
design.
In giving bride a gown for a we'd
ding gift care should be taken to select
something that will hold its style. for
the gift should be one that can always
be used like the wedding gown, and
that will not be outlawed In season or
two. Velvet, satin and chiffon are OF
the durable variety. in that they hold
their stvle well.
In the wonderful trousseau OF the
Duchess de Chaulnes there was one
gown which was given 70 her by one of
her Paris relatives 10 be. II was

pink And IL was worked by hand IN
