against the repressive measures re-
Gently promulgated by the minister
of education. Among other irritat-
ing pieces of tyranny, women were
barred from the universities, though
heretofore they had been admitted to
them on the same terms as men. This
was not due to prejudice against the
sex, but mere recognition of them
as equal lovers Of liberty and as it
was impossible to bar all students the
minister hit upon this means as cut
ting down the total number Of the
student body. Doubtless if he could
close all schools entirely he would
gladly do so, as education in any form
is abhorrent to the government.

WARNED OF THE CYCLONE.

Once upon a time Kansas zephyr
broke loose and meandered about the
country, picking up various things.

voice.
Yes. What's the matter?"
This is Frank. We've got a cyclone
down here, and it's headed your way.

off suddenly. Bill heard crash and
a sputtering, then all was silence. He

RHEUMATISM PRESCRIPTION

The increased use of whiskey for
rheumatism is causing considerable
discussion among the medical frater-
nifty. 1t is an almost infallible cure
when mixed with certain other ingre-
dients and taken properly. The fol-
lowing formula is effective: "To one
half pint of good whiskey add one
ounce Of Toris Compound and one
ounce of Syrup Sarsaparilla Compound.
Take in tablespoonful doses before
each meal and before retiring"
Toris compound is product of the
laboratories of the Globe Pharma-
ceutical Co., Chicago, but it as well as
the other ingredients can be had from
any good druggist.

Mark Twain and party Of friends
recently went to visit the studio of a
young sculptor who is coming rapidly
into public notice. One of the pieces
which was admired greatly by the ma

young woman coiling up her hair.
Mark listened to the encomiums in
silence, and when urged for an ex-
preston of opinion said slowly:

All expressed their surprise at this

reasons.

UPWARD START
After Changing from Coffee to Postu

Many talented person is kept back
because of the interference of coffee
with the nourishment Of the body.
This is especially so with those
whose nerves are very sensitive, as is
often the case with talented persons.
There is simple, easy way to get rid
of coffee evils and a Tenn. lady's eX-
periencs along these lines is worth
considering. She says:
almost from the beginning of the
use Of coffee it hurt my stomach. BY
the time l was fifteen | was almost a
nervous wreck, nerves all unstrung, no
strength to endure the most trivial
thing, either work or fun.
There was scarcely anything ]
could eat that would agree with me-
The little did eat seemed to give me
more trouble than it was worth. 1
finally quit coffee and drank hot
water, but there was so little food /
could digest, l was literally starving;
was so weak ! could not sit up long
at a time.
1T was then a friend brought me a
hot cup Of Postum. l drank part of it
and after an hour | felt as though /
had had something to eat felt
strengthened. That was about five
years ago, and after continuing Post
um in place of coffee and gradually
getting stronger, to-day | can eat and

as ] want. My nerves are steady.

soME REMARKS FROM MINNIE
sofa EDITORS.
What They Think of Western Canada

A party of editors from number of
cities and towns of Minnesota recently
made tour of Western Canada. and
having returned to their homes they
are now telling in their respective
newspapers of what they saw on their
Canadian trip. The West St. Paul
Times recalls the excursion of the
Minnesota editors from Winnipeg to
the Pacific Coast ten years ago. Re-
ferring 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 transferred into grain
fields. Towns have sprung up as if
by the wand of magician, and their
development is now in full progress.
1t is a revelation, record of conquest
by settlement that is remarkable"
The Hutchinson Leader character
ICES Western Canada as "a great coun-
try undeveloped. The summer out
ih6, IL say ., was al eye-OpeHeT 10
every member of the party, even those
who were on the excursion through
Western Canada ten years ago, over
considerable of the territory covered
this year, being amazed at the prog
ress and advancement made in that
short space of time. The time will
come when Western Canada will be
the bread-basket of the world. 1t
was a delightful outing through a
great country of wonderful possibil-
tties and resources"
Since the visit of these editors the
Government has revised its land regu-
lations and it is now possible to Sc
cure 160 acres of wheat land at $500
an acre in addition to the 160 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 will give excellent profits to
the farmers.
From Milestone, Saskatchewan.
there are reported yields of thirty bush
els Of spring wheat to the acre, while
the average is about 20 bushels. The
quality of grain to be shipped from
this point will be about 100000 bush.
