Childish Inference,

Little Julia was taking her after
noon walk with her mother. Her at
teHtion was attracted for the first time
to a large church ediice on one of the
street corners. ~
"Oh, mother!!" she exclaimed,
whose nice big house is that?"
whose nice big house is that?
"That, Julia, is Gods house," ex-
planned the mother.
Some time later it happened that
the child was again taken by the
church, this time on Sunday evening
when services were in progress. Julia,
noticing the brilliantly lighted win
dows, drew her own conclusions.
ooh, look, mother" she called out,
God must be having a party"

A NEW TOWN
EVERY WEEK
AND A NEW SCHOOL EVERY
SCHOOL DAY.

The above caption about represents
the growth of Central Canada. The
statement was made not long since by
a railroad man who claimed to have
made the remarkable discovery that
such was the case. There is not q
district of a fair amount Of settle
ment in any of the three Provinces Of
Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta,
but has its school, and the railways
have stations every v or eight
miles apart, around which group the
towns, some large and some small,
but each important to its own district.
Schools are largely maintained by pub
lie funds and the expense of tuition is
bat a nominal sum.
The final returns of the grain pro-
duction for Central Canada for 1909 is
now in, and the figures show that the
value of the crops to the farmers of
that country is about 1875 million dol
lars, as compared with 100 million last
year. American farmers or those who
have gone from the United States, will
participate largely in these splendid

have gone from nearly every State in
the Union.
One of the many proofs that might
be put forward showing the immense
wealth that comes to the farmers Of
Central Canada is see in the sum
that has been spent during the past
two or three months by the farmers
who have for the time being ceased
worrying over the reaper and the
thresher, and are taking to enjoying
themselves for two or three months.
1t is said that fifty thousand people of
these Western Provinces spent the
holiday season visiting their old
homes. Most of these passengers paid
forty and some forty-five dollars for
the round trip. Some went to Great
Britain, some to the Continent, others
to their old homes in Eastern Canada,
and many thousands went to- visit
their friends in the States. The amount
paid alone in transportation would be
upward of two million dollars. Some
make the trip every years. 1t need
not be asked, "Can they afford it?"
With crops yielding them a profit OF
$40 to $25 per acre, and some having
as much as twelve hundred or more
acres, the question is answered. The
Canadian Government Agents at dit.

She caught me up sharply. "Of

told you that, but you would go. on in
your stubborn unbelief in my intui-

but she was gallant, though! She had
me almost bewildered at first; but
the moment she found that she could
have done with all pretense and that
her fancied obligation to Ankony was
at an end, then how she changed! It
was pitiful to see her. One under

under. I'm not pretending to say
whether or not she cares for you, Mr..
Twining-that's for you to find out for
yourself, you know-but I think it is
only fair to tell you that she never
has cared for Ankony."
Thank God!" 1 devoutly murmured.
She patted my arm and made funny
little dabs at her eyes with a dot of
a handkerchief. 4
"She is going out of town to stay
with some friends until the storm of
the broken engagement has blown

A FAULTY nEnORY

An editor beside Gastineau Channel says the Rake Indians are going bad againand adds: If our memory is not atifault. it was not more than year ago thatthe Presbyterian Synod for Southeastern Alaska met at Rake and the. whole bunch of preachers took turns preaching to these same Indians. Tt is too bad to have 70 say it but really the above mentioned memory is at fault. There is no such thing as q synod for Southeastern Alaska. The presbytery of Alaska met at Klawock nearly a yearago We hope, however, that the in- fluence of the whole bunch of preachers did reach Rake. If their preaching leads atown to drive out even two of the men who ought to be driven out of many towns it ought to be splendid recommendation for the bunch of preachers.
 An item from coast paper says that Mir .J.P. Campbell (formerly US. deputy marshal at Sitka ) has purchased a fine orange groveof ten acres between Pomona and Los Angeles. The price was $2O, 900. The crop for this year is valued at $6OO0 and goes to the buyer.
