What They Think OF Western
Canada.
A party Of editors from n number
Of cities and towns Of Minnesota re-
Gently made a tour of Western Canada,
and having returned to their homes
they are now telling in their respective
newspapers Of what they saw IN their
Canadian trip. The West st. Paul
Times recalls the excursion Of the Min
nesota editors from Winnipeg to the
Pacific Coast ten years ago. Referring
to what has happened in the Interval
the writer says Thousands Of miles
Of new railway lines have been built,
and the development of the country
has made marvellous strides. Millions
Of acres, then lying in their wild and
untouched state, have since been trans
cred into grain fields. Towns have
sprung up as if by the wand Of q
magician. and their development is now
in full progress. 1t is 4 revelation, a
record of conquest by settlement that
Is remarkable"

Western Canada as "a great country

Of the territory covered this year, b. 'ng
amazed at the progress and advanc.
ment made in that short space of time.
The time will come when Western Can
ada will be the bread-basket of the
world. 1t vas a delightful outing
through a great country of wonderful
possibilities and resources
Since the visit of these editors the
government has revised its land regula-
tons and it is now possible to secure
100 acres Of wheat land at SO an acre
in addition to the $50 acres that may
be homesteaded.
The crops of 1908 have been splen-
did, and reports from the various dis
tricts show good yields. which at pres
ent prices win give excellent profits to
the farmers.
From Milestone. Saskatchewan, there
are reported yields of thirty bushels of
spring wheat to the acre, while the
average is about twenty bushels. The
quantity of grain to be shipped from
this point will be about 100000 bushels.
Information regarding free lands and
transportation will be freely given by
the Canadian government agents.

just the Kind He Wanted.

A lecturer was touring through the
country recently and delivered an d
dress before an audience in a country
schoolhouse.
In the course of his remarks he re-
viewed the agricultural prospects Of the
country and as an Illustration told a
story of a poor farmer who had died,
leaving to his wife the farm heavily
mortgaged. He said that the widow
set to work with a will and succeeded
upon n years wheat crop in paying
off the entire mortgage.
When he a completed his lecture
the gentleman shook hands and greet
ed the members OF his audience. One
middle aged mar finally approached
him and began:
II say, mister, you told a story bout
the widow raising a mortgage on n
years crop?"
Yes. my friend. that was a true
story. It happened only two years
ago"
Well, sir. could you tell me who
that widow is? She's just the kind Of
woman I've been looking for all the
time"

A Princess Who Can Wrestle.

The crown princes Of Montenegro is
the champion royal lady wrestler of

future ruler of the little principality
the Princess Danile was the Duchess
tutta, of Mecklenburg, Germany. She
% a brilliant pianist, an expert needle
woman and a caricaturist of no little
skill, but her most fayorite activity
seems to be the masculine sport Of
wrestling. She has especially studied
the Japanese art Of jiu jitsu, and has
10 thoroughly mastered it that she is
almost invariably successful in the
bouts in which she engages.

Gets $1,000 interest on $50.
From the New York Herald.

From the New York Herald.
The happiest man in New York to-
day is Adam Brede, chef in a lunch
room. Over 20 years ago Brede de-
posted $50 in the Seaman's bank for
savings. With a friend he attended q
festival hat night, and when he left
the hall he found that both his friend
and his bank book had disappeared.
Recently he encountered his friend,
who greeted him e~ffusively, and said:
Here is that bank book, Adam. It
has hur my conscience for 20 years,
but 1t was the means Of saving my
life. After leaving New York I went to
Albany. From there / drifted out to
San Francisco, where I started a fruit
business. I prospered, and at the end
OF 18 years was worth about $50, 900.
I arrived here last Sunday, and have
been looking for you ever since"
He then handed over the bank boob
and $1,000 for interest.

A Kindly Misfortune.
From the Denver Pos,

A young man who works in a Denver
bank Endorsed a check for 500 for a
friend about two months ago. Later
the check came back protested and the
young bank employee had to make the
amount good. He was very much bro
ken up over the matter.
Well" he said to his wife, I'll have
to make up thai 500. / won't smoke
another cigar until the amount / would
have spent for tobacco equals the
amount I have lost in this transaction"
He cut smoking out entirely. The 9TH
er day the father of his friend paid the
500. Now the young bank employee
and his wife are happy. He has the
$500, he's ahead about $50 on cigar
money and he has no desire to use to-
bacco any more.

Let Love drop smiles like sunshine. and
Pity tears like rain!'
Two faces bowed before the Throne ,:veiled
in their golden hair:
-Four white wings loosened swiftly down
the dark abyss of air.
The way was strange, the flight was long,
at last the angels came
Where swung the lost and neither world,
r~ed-wrapped in rayless flame.
There Pity, ~shuddering, wept; but Love-;
with faith too strong for fear,
Took heart from Gods almightiness and,
smiled a smile of cheer.
And. 10. the ear Of Pity quenched the
flame whereon 1t fell.
And, with the sunshine OF that smile, hopei
entered into hell.
Two unveiled faces full OF joy looked up
ward to the Throne;
Four white wings folded at the feet OF
Him who sat thereon!
And deeper than the sound of seas, more
soft than falling fake,
Amidst the hush of wing and song the.

holier joy to heaven; /.
Henceforth its sweetest song shall be the
song of sin forgiven"

Women are not the only gossips; but
because they have more delicate skins,
they ruin more quickly in this respect.
Perhaps they keep it up more persist

stop. either in good or evil work. We

General Demand


of the Well-Informed of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy Of known
value; a laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its COM
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex-
cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one of many reasons why
Syrup OF Figs and Elixir of SIENNA is given
the preference by the Well Informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the genuine-manufactured by the Cali
sornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents
per bottle.

OF PAPAW :.

Experiments designed to ascertain the
practicability of shipping papaws from
Hawaii to San Francisco have been carried
out, and are reported upon in Bulletin IL
Of the Hawaiian Experiment Station.
The papaw is a fruit which offers good
prospects of finding 4 ready market, since
it is one which is practically certain to be
popular with consumers.
The results of the trials would Indicate
that under proper conditions, papaws care
fnlly selected, handled and packed, could be
successfully shipped sach a distance as that
from Hawaii to the Pacific coast.
1t was found that fruit of the long type
was more suitable for shipping than round
f~rnits, being less liable to damage and con-
sequent decay. Provided the voyage is di-
rect and no transhipment is involved, the
best stage at which to gather the fruit is
just hen it is beginning to show slight
tinges of yellow. If the voyage is longer
and the fruit has to undergo tran ,1ipment,
it is recommended that the pl. q vs. be
gathered green.
The fruit should be wrapped separately
IN glazed paper, with an exterior wrapper
of crimped straw-board if possible. Papaws
will undergo refrigeration in shipment with
out deterioration in favour.-AgricuIttn0G
