Winnipeg correspondence:
There has never been any who have
doubted the productiveness OF the soil
times found those who question the fact
OF Its superiority. During the past
season 1t has been shown that IN grain
raising qualities 1t possessed the very
best. The late spring prevented grain
being sown In many cases before the
middle OF May. Yet, q large percentage
OF that sown at that time produced ex-
ccIlelt yields. Had it not been for the
frost early in August, which visited
most Of the north half OF the continent,
yield in every district in Western Can
ada. Throughout the Southern Alberta
district. where about 100000 acres was
sown to winter wheat, the yield will
be enormously large. There are vast
tracts OF valuable grain-growing land
IN Western Canada that are available
for homesteads. the Canadian Govern
ment giving 1G0 acres free, and entry
may be made by proxy, by any near
relative, thus saving considerable cost
TO the American who may nave entry

eminent Agent will give you the par.
ticulars.

MRS. HENRY LEE

Owing to modern methods of living
not one woman IN q thousand APP
Proaches this perfectly natural change
without experiencing train of very
annoying and sometimes painful
symptoms.
This is the most critical period of
her whole existence and every woman
who neglects the care Of her health
At this time invites disease and pain.
When her system is in a deranged
condition or she is predisposed to
apoplexy or congestion of any organ,
the tendency Is at this p er d
likely to become active and with a
host OF nervous irritations make life a
burden. At this time also cancers
and tumors are more liable to form
and begin their destructive work.
Such warning symptoms as sense
OF suffocation, hot flashes, headaches,
backaches, melancholia, dread of inn
pending evil, palpitation of the heart,
Irregularities, constipation and dizzi-
ness are promptly needed by intel
hgent women who are approaching
the period Of life when this grea
change may be expected.

THE TRUTH ABOUT THE CENcr

From F. Mndon Crawford's Beat
rice Cenci" in the January Gen.
tury.
As a novelist l do not feel that
to show the truth about the Cenci
is to destroy a romance which has
an artistic right to live. Nonsense
IS not romantic; impossible monsters
that have no human trait are not
romantic; foolish anGchronisms,
su"r as that involved in the sup
posed portrait of Beatrice by Guido,
are not proper foundations for fic-
tion; the sentimentalism manifested
by the rows of poor deluded tourists
who are daily brought almost to tears
in contemplating a second-rate sketch
in the Berberini gallery is not hui
man sympathy. II Shelley had not
been a great poet, his greatest drama
would have been intolerable balder.
dash; so, without Victor Hugo's ge-
MUS, "Hernani" or "Ruy Bias"
would have been ridiculous twaddle,
q mere hash of absmrdities.
But divest the story of the Cenci
of what has grown upon it, and you
have a great love-drama, less noble,
but even more human, and surely
far more awful, than the Bride of
Lammermoor. There is the trag-
edy of the sins OF the father inherit
ed by the children--sins punished
by his death and theirs. Upon his
soul is the dire horror Of knowing
that their birthright of evil is from
himself; of seeing them do again
what he has done, and worse; of
feeling from afar off the coming OF
their vengeance upon him for having
brought them into the world TO sin
and suffer, TO say, and in their turn
to die. There Is over all his life
and th -irs the shadow that overhung
the priest OF Nemi, the darkness of
inevitable doom. There -, the wild
and wayward girls unhappy love for
the young warden; the irresistible,
passionate call for the blood to evil;
the desperate secret to be kept; the
inherited. violent instinct TO strike
and be free; and when the moment
comes at last, the lnvlhclble courage
and man-like calm OF Medea herself.
Above all, when Beatrice's lover is
dead and her child Is safe, and she
sets her foot upon the scaffold, there
Is the strength 10 die bravely. Maid
en- Polyxena's look was not more Sc
rene. Like her, Beatrice will let no
common touch come near her; like
her, the Roman girl bares her own
neck 10 the steel, speaks her last
quiet words, bends, and awaits the
blow. All Is accomplished accord
ing TO the mystic law OF blood-herl-
tage; all Is over; the world is be-
hind; her sin is confessed and for
given. There is but one second
more. and then eternity That was
the real tragedy.
