At the Grand opera house wednes-
day night Ben Greet's players gave
performance of Shakespeare's
Twelfth Night. and opinions differ as
to whether or not the majority of the
audience really liked it. These large
travelling companies. with their nee

charge high prices. On Saturday, the
18th, at the Grand, you win have an
opportunity to see a performance of

you feel like 1t.

CARRYING THE ARCTIC MAIL.
A Postman Wiki q Route Nearly e.
600 Miles Long-Dog Trains
tIead . z.

San Francisco Call: James Cornwall, a
hardy and experienced fur trader, left Ed
monton last Monday for the northwest
wilds of Canada, his destination being well
into the arctic circle. Cornwall has Sc
cured a contract for carrying the mail to
the few scattered Inhabitants Of those
northern wilds. A distance Of 1,190 miles
will be traversed before he reaches the
end Of his journey at Fort Mcpherson, on
the Mackenzie river. ..g..r..
with the exception of the first 100 miles.
when horses will be used, the entire trip
will be made by dog trains, the driver Sc
curing relays of fresh dogs at postoffices
en- route. At times the thermometer will
be 60 degrees below zero, and fierce bliz-
yards are frequent in that district during
the winter months. Dangers of all kinds
will be met every mile of the arduous jour-
ney, and II history repeats itself, he will
lose at least one-third of the mail matter
before his task Is half over.
Cornwall will be unable to pack sufYi-
cient food for the long trail, and VIII have
to rely on his rife for his daily meat. The
dogs will be fed on tallow and fish,
At night the hardly mailman will erect
a canvas shelter, make tea from snow
water, and after a frugal meal from
which bread and other luxuries will be
excluded. he will creep into his sleeping
bag.
Despite the great distance, there arc
only II postoffices between Athabasca
Landing and Fort Mcpherson, and In or
der to accommodate settlers. who in many
cases would have to travel hundreds OF
miles to secure their mail, the carrier Is
empowered to deliver precious letters to
them The weight of each letter Is re-
stricted to one ounce.

AN INTERESTING
CHEMICAL EXPERIMENT
Amy Child Can Do 1.-THE Result Is
Almost Like Magic-Usefui Too.

Anything In the nature of q chemi-
cal experiment Is always interesting
and usually educative. Here is a sim
pie experiment which any child can
perform and which is instructive in a
very practical way: Get q bit Of
White Lead about the size of a pea, a
piece of charcoal, common candle in
a candlestick, and blow-pipe. Scoop
ont little hollow in the charcoal to
hold the White Lead, then light the
candle, take the charcoal and lead in
one hand and the biow-pipe In the
ether, with the large end of the blow.
ptpe between the lips blow the flame
of the candle steadily against the bit
OF White Lead on the charcoal and IL
the White Lead is pure 1t will present
ay resolve itself into little shining glob-
ules of metallic lead, under the intense
heat of the blow-pipe, leaving no
residue.
If, however, the White Lead is adur-
terated in the slightest degree, it will
not wholly change into lead. So, II
will be seen, that this experiment Is
not only an entertaining chemical dem
onstration, but also of practical use in
w
portant ingredient Of paint. 1t should
be bought pure and unadulterated and
mixed with pure linseed oil. That is
the best paint. The above easy expert
ment enables any one to know whether
the paint is the kind which will wear
or not.
The National Lead Company guar.
antee that white lead taken from
package bearing their Dutch Boy
Painter" trademark will prove abso-
lutely pure under the bIow-pipe test
and to encourage people to make the
test and prove the purity of paint be-
fore using it, they will send free a
blow-pipe and a valuable booklet on
paint to any one writing them asking
for Test Equipment. Address National
Lead Company, Woodbridge Building,
New York City.

$16 AN ACRE WAS REALIZED

On q Crop in Western Canada Last
Kear--AnOther Farmer Realizes
$12.5O per Acre from His Wheat
Crop.
Charles Mccormick, of KenviGe
Manitoba, writes:
During the season of 1907 had
100 acres in crop on the S. w. quarter
OF section IS, township S5, range q,
west Of the Principal Meridian, West
ern Canada, yielded as follows:
Eighty acres at % bushels per acre,
which sold for 80 cents per bushel,
and 20 acres oats yielding GO bushels
per acre sold for 35 cents per bushel,
so that my total crop realized $1,000
From this I deducted for expenses OF
threshing, hired help, etc, $40O, leaving
me a net profit on this years crop Of
over $1,000"
Thomas Sawatzky, Of Herbert, Sas-
katchewan, says:
'The value of my crop per acre Of
wheat is $225O. threshed 1,750 bush
els Of wheat from 20 acres, and was
offered 80 cents bushel for 1t; oats,
10 acres, 500 bushels, and barley, 8
acres, so bushels. l do not know If I
have been doing the best in this dis
trict, but I know If all the farmers
were doing as well, Western Canada
would have no kick coming as far as
grain growing is concerned; and fur
ther say that If you want to put this
avr 40 o1u fc &c
true and I can put my name to it"
