CANADA'S GOOD TIMES.
The immigration During 1906 Was
10000.

While 1t Is we'll to heed every
word of caution from the leaders in
commerce and finance and to avoid
all speculative ventures that lack a
solid business foundation, 1t is clearly
evident that there is no conspicuous
weak spot in Canada's present era OF
prosperity. The Toronto Globe says:
1.-THE Dominion has in commercial
sense plenty Of money, and our lead
ing financial institutions are in a po-
sition to lend freely in the United
States. The chief productive enter
prises of Canada are not buoyed up
by an era of dangerous speculation,
but are following substantial busi-
ness methods and finding safe and
continuous markets for their goods.
We are not bolstering up any indus
tries by extensive export bonuses
that must impoverish the people as
a whole, and ultimately lead to COL
lapse through the failure of the arti-
fetal aid. There is no extreme pro-
lection in Canada such as would Gre
ate great fortunes for few at the
expense of the general public and
lead to disruption and catastrophe.
The prosperity of Canada has no ar
tificial foundation being based on a
healthy and substantial expansion of
trade and industry, with a proportion
ate extension of productive settlement
to new areas.
1t is true that we are borrowing
extensively for railway construction,
but every line will bring new terri
tory within the limits of profitable
occupation, and will create prosper
Gus settlements to bear the burdens
and repay the outlay. We are not
exhausting mineral resources, for 1t
is quite reasonable to assume that,
although mineral wealth is never
permanent, ours will during the
measurable future develop far
greater productive capacity than at
present Our timber wealth can be
made continuous by judicious pol
icy. And agriculture, the real foun-
dation of our prosperity, is expanding
with every new expenditure on rail-
way construction. We are not in
the flush of a railway mania that
could bring its punishment through
the useless duplication of lines. The
gigantic railway enterprises that
now stimulate every line of business
in Canada will create a new Domin-
ion, and thus render easy the heavy
burdens of debt now freely assumed.
Canada.s era of prosperity has been
unprecedented, but there is no sign
of weakness and no cause for lack
of confidence While our growth is
normal and healthy, we need have no
alarm at it's rapidly" This article
might have gone on to relate the
great growth that is taking place in
Central Canada, where thousands of
Americans have made their homes
during the past few years. The past
calendar year has given to Canada by
importation an addition Of $4,000 to
its population. OF this the United
States contributed 63,7S1. The agents
of the Canadian government, whose
advertisement appears elsewhere, say
that 4his number will be largely in.

MRS. ELVA BARBER EDWARDS

There are three critical stages in a
woman's life which leave their mark
in her career. The first of these stages
is womanhood, or the change from a
care free girl to budding womanhood,
The second is motherhood, and the
third is Change of Life.
Perils surround each of these stages,
and most of the misery that comes
to women through ill health dates
from one or another of these i'm
portant crises.
Women should remember that Lydia
e. Plnkham's Vegetable Compound
made from native roots and herbs has
carried thousands of young girls over
the critical period of puberty, has
prepared mothers for childbirth, and
in later years carried them safely
through the change of life more sue
cessfully than any other remedy. in
the world. Thousands OF testimonials
from grateful persons, two OF which
are here published, substantiate this
fact beyond contradiction.
