ALONE WITH MOTHER

DO not We all remember with
pleasure the days when "the 9th

perfectly we'll. and mother had us
In her drawing room, or work room,
or took us out for little walk alone1
Not that We did not love to romp
and play. Not that we did not APP
preciate TO the full the picnics and
other family expeditions which took
place from time to time but there
vas enjoyment Of every different,
deeper sort in those quiet times
with mother. the remembrance OF
which has lasted half a lifetime.
There Is a very real danger that the
mother OF a large family may never
fully come to know her children,
and gain that influence over them
for good individually which is so
desirable that every mother should
have. We do not hesitate 10 say
that II is absolutely impossible for
a woman to become the conhdant
and friend Of her children unless she
veekly-nay, daily-spends some
short time alone with each. Only
in this way can each child feel the
security Of his or her ownership OF
that precious mother. The stern
realities of life permit only short
seasons Of recreation. and Il is only
by planning judiciously the arrange
ments OF time and divisions Of labor
that a busy mother can insure a
child his rightful portion Of her
company.

There is a difference between a
house and a home. The house is
but a building and furniture, the
outward shelter and the gathering
place Of the household. The home
indicates the kindly family affection,
the thoughtful care, ready sym
patty, mutual confidence, and trust
Of the members. A true home
breathes the atmosphere Of love. A
child should be made to feel that
his home Is indeed a home. the hap
piest place in the world. not merely
an outward shelter and a resting
place, but center of enjoyment,

SOUNDS LIKE A FAIRY TALE
THE FARMERS OF CENTRAL CAN.
ADA REAP WHEAT AND
RICHES.

Up In the Provinces of Manitoba,
Saskatchewan and Alberta, the prov
inces that compose Central Canada
have such quantity of land suitable
for the growth of small grains, which
grow SO abundantly. and yield SO hand
somely that no fear need be feared
Of a wheat famine on this Continent.
The story reproduced below is only
one of the hundreds of proofs that
could be produced to show the results
that may be obtained from cultiva-
ton of the lands in these provinces.
Almost any section of the country will
do as well.
With the country recently opened by
the Grand Trunk Pacific, the latest of
the great transcontinental lines to en-
ter the field of the development of the
Canadian West, there is afforded added
ample opportunity to do as was done
in the case cited below:
To buy a section of land, break it
up and crop it, make $17,550 out of
the yield and $10,88O out of the increase
of value all within the short period
OF two years, was the record estab-
lished by James Bailey, we'll known
farmer within few miles of Regina.
Mr.. Bailey bought the $40 acres Of
land near Grand Coulee two years ago.
He Immediately prepared the whole
section for crop and this year has 600
| acres of wheat and 40 acres of oats
| The wheat yielded 1875 bushels, and
the oats yielded 4,75O bushels. The
whole of the grain has been market
ed and Mr.. Bailey is now worth ST, $50
from the grain alone. He bought the
land at $18 an acre, and the other
day refused an offer Of $35 an acre,
| just SIT advance for the time of his
purchase. The land cost $11,320 in
the first instance. Here are the fig
ures of the case.-Land cost, $40
acres, at $18, $11,320. Wheat yielded
1875 bushels. at "a cents a bushel,
$16,695. Oats yielded 4,750 bushels
at % cents a bushel, 1855. Offered
for land, $40 acres at $35 an acre.
$22, 400. Increase value of land, $1O,88O.
Total earnings of crop, $17.55O, togeth-
er with increase in value of land q to-
tai of $28,540.
It is interesting to note the figures
Of the yield per acre. The wheat
yielded 33k bushels to the acre, and
oats 1887 bushels to the acre. The fig
ures are fair indication of the aver
age throughout the district.

ton of telescope and moving picture machine by
means of which you can connect your room with
the toy department and see the display by wire
or perhaps by wireless-and at the same time you
get prices and leave your order with the clerk by
telephone
But perhaps the woman of 2o0s will enjoy the
mad rush of the shops much as she does TO
day during the holiday season, and then she will
go to the big store and order her toys and pres
ents. The store could deliver them through the
pneumatic package tubes which will go to all
parts of the city, but 1t will be more poetic to
have them delivered by Santa Claus.
Christmas eve score or hundred Santa
Clauses will set out from the various shops with
their airshps laden with Christmas gifts to be de-
lvered at the various addresses. It will longer
be necessary to deliver all goods in the rear" of
the big apartment building, but whether you live
on the twentieth two hundred and twentieth
story of the big house you will have your own
private airship landing and while the family is
gathered at the door to receive Santa Claus the
arship will settle on the landing and the cheerful
Merry Christmas" of the aeronaut will greet you
he hands in the packages.
The Christmas tree of hundred years from
now will be electrical marvel. Festoons and
wreaths of rainbow colored lights and "chasers"
will scintillate from its green branches. But the
presents that bang en- it will be even more won
derful.
There will be dolls as large as the Nttaz gt.lx
who will receive them. There win be dolls that
can walk and with the improved Photographic
rangements of another century there will be dolls
that talk and others that sing beautiful
songs. Some of them, no doubt, will be able to
dance gracefully and to do tricks that would seem
miraculous If performed by an automaton to-day.
The mechanical toys of 2009 will be marvels of
perfection. The nest imaginative man cannot
possibly conceive of the new things that will be
invented in the way of machinery, but it is safe
to assume that the wireless transmission of power
will be perfected. Wheels will spin without any
visible motive power. Power may be taken from
the suns rays or wireless power stations may be
operated by the waves, the waterfalls, even the

will expect working model too-one that will

Within the last hundred years steam and elec-
tricity have been developed and it is entirely
sonable to imagine that within the coming century
men will travel through the air as commonly

the trolley car, the railroad train, and the horse

as the birds do. and fay swiftly and safely to
their destination.
1t is probable that there will not be a wheeled
vehicle of any kind on the streets of great city
on Christmas day. in the year 20O9. Our tunnel
system will have developed until the vast subter-
ranean net work of bores, chutes and pneumatic
tubes will carry the heavy traffic of the city
without noise confusion. The streets will be
given up to pedestrians-to those who walk for
pleasure or wish to travel short distances The
sidewalk as 1t is now will be no more, but the en-
tire width of the street will be given up to foot
passengers There will be neither car tracks nor
moving vehicles to annoy.
The suburbanite who does not fly to work In
3009 will be shot through a pneumatic tube trav-
cling the five, ten, or fifty miles of distance in
space Of time that may be only a few seconds and
certainly cannot be more than a few minutes 1t
may be that few people will walk anywhere In
the year 2009. When man learns to fly he will
scorn walking too slow means of progress.
Perhaps our Observation-Disclosures who no
doubt will live in immense apartment buildings
towering half mile from the ground. may go
for weeks at time without setting foot to the
earth.
With the passing of the Christmas sleigh there
will be longer any need for reindeers for Santa
Claus He. too. will travel by airship, and while
tAe old Santa Claus will be myth. the new Santa
Claus will be real as the bewhiskered and be-
furred boys who now entertain the children in the
department stores.
