Il was in such a low state that I
had to give up my work entirely, and
went to the mountains OF this sta te,
but two months there did not improve

MY food did not sustain me and
1t became plain that / must change.

Hune Anchors.

IF some OF the sea worthless could
come TO earth and get a look at the
anchors which were recently turned
out in the Charlestown nav yard, they
would not believe their eyesight,' said
H. NJ. Knight, of Boston, to "a Milwau-
kee Sentinel reporter. "Battleships
nowadays carry four anchors. These
ave been cast heretofore, but they
were liable TO break at the wrong time.
They were so big, however, that II
seemed there was no other way to
make them. Finally 1t was decided to
try and forge an ancho OF the size
needed at the Charlestown navy yard.
Accordingly five men were set at work
on an anchor which was to weigh H.
500 pounds. The men worked on the
anchor a month and then turned out
one that stood all the tests and was
accepted. Now they are making those
anchors in the yard In sets OF fours
for shipment wherever they are need
ed.
These anchors will hold the largest
battleships afioat unless they are
caught in a hurricane. They are i'm

He Knows EARTHQUAKES.

Professor John Milne, who has re-
Gently been awarded a medal of the
Royal society for his eminent services
In the modern development OF seismic

The professor has been "a great traveller
but he now lives quietly In the Isle
OF Wight, where he keeps his seismo-
graph, the wonderful instrument that
records an earthquake, no matter at
what part Of the globe 1t may occur.
Professor Milne is also one OF the
greatest living authorities IN Japan,
and was for 20 years engaged by the
Japanese government as a geologfst
and mining engineer. Like the late Sir
Edwin Arnold, the professor married
a Japanese lady, and their welded life
has been ideally happy.

Lax Public Opinion TO Blame.

H NAtA afb& ~ III II
Lethargic public opinion as a prime
cause for municipal vice was discussed
recently In Carnegie hall by A. Leo Well.
president OF the Voters league OF Pitts
burg, and responsible for the arrest and
conviction Of the boodllng councilmen IN
that city.
There is one cardinal point to be re-
membered," ne said. when you convict
a CRATER you convict the public also. For,
given a public in which there Is a high
moral standard, you will find In that conn
munity no general system of bribery ana
corruption. Criminal compiacence is one
OF the basic elements OF municipal vice,
and where that attitude does not exist, an
/ say, vice is bound to be sporadic.
1.-THE only way Of keeping men good In
any walk of life La by the finger OF public
opinion. II the accusing finger OF public
opinion Is kept pointed at the men known
to be guilty OF w~rongdoing as member oA
council or the like, no other force need
be applied. The concentrated gaze OF the
public is more powerful than all the iav
| courts OF the world.
Herein lies our difficulty and the diff
iculty OF livery community seeking FOL
better things. The question of civic bet,
terment can be resolved into the simple
proposition OF keeping a public conscience
aroused after the first spasm OF horroI
accustomed by graft exposures"

The Fire Bearer.

Ye who bear fire within your breast.
Look not for rest.
Early your clamoring heart shall learn
Only to burn,
To ask nor other food
Than his own fire,
Nor better brotherhood
Than his sublime, unquenchabie desired
Ask not what end, II asking give
Less JOY to live,
Or. II to ask, you long must wait
Beside some gate
Where the glib answerers dwell;
Your heart OF fire
Hath his own lore to tell
OF his sublime, unQuenchable desire!
The mute, unkindled multitude,
The rough, the rude,
Let them your giving raptures know,
And share the glow
The undermining give their dream!
Fire answering fire,
Fulfilment sweet shall seem
or your sublime, unQuenchable desireb

Western Canada's Happy Prospect.

Western Canada's Happy Prospects.
In no year since the development Of
Western Canada began has spring
brought q brighter outlook than it
brings this year. In no preceding
spring has there been greater assur-
ance OF advancing development and
prosperity. The movement Of immigra-
ton has already assumed large proper
lions, and is as desirable In character
as 1t is satisfactory In volume from
across the Atlantic sturdy, industri-
Gus and thrifty newcomers are arrivs
ing in large numbers, homeseekers
from Ontario and the other older
provinces are coming in a steady
stream, and from across the interna-
tional boundary a movement is already
In full flow which, it is confidently
predicted, will beat the records OF all
previous years special settlers trains
are crossing the line, loaded with eff
fects, actual material wealth being
thus brought into the country at the
rate Of millions of dollars worth
monthly.
The movement Is so un~precedently
large that extra Dominion Immigra-
ton officials have had to be provided
at both North Portal and at Emerson,
and it is estimated that the total num-
Der of new settlers from the United
States this year will be 10000 at least,
and may run we'll up toward 100000.
Last years total of new settlers from
the South was 53,723; thus the area
that will be placed In wheat and other
grains this year will greatly exceed
that Of last year. Settlers are making
extraordinary efforts to get on their
lands and begin seeding operations.
The price of wheat now, away above
the dollar mark, is incentive enough,
and when one has In view the splen-
did results that the past few years
have shown, it is not to be wondered
at that the present will be the banner
year for immigration to Canada. Ask
your nearest Canadian government
agent for rates OF transportation, and
he win also send you illustrated
pamphlets.
