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 a
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 seven 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
but 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 12O million last
year. American farmers or those who
have gone from the United States, will
participate largely in these splendid
returns, and these comprise those who
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 seen 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 fer
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
$50 to $25 per acre, and some having
as much as twelve hundred or more
acres, the question is answered. The
Canadian Government Agents at diff
ferent points in the States report that
they have interviewed a great many
of those who are now visiting friends
in the different states, and they all ex-
press themselves as well satisfied.
and promise to take some of their
friends back with them. There is still
a lot of free homestead land in splen-
did districts, and other lands can be
purchased at a reasonable price from
railway and land companies.

after pause
He's the skipper of the Stiletto,"
Gillespie replied, readily.
Hes a long way from tide-water,"
I remarked. "A BLACKBOARD of just his
sort once sailed me around the Italian
peninsula in a felucca, and saved me
from drowning on the way. His hero
ism was not, however, wholly dfsinter-
ested. When we got back to Naples
he robbed me of my watch and money
belt and 1 profited by the transaction,
having intended to give him double
their value. But there are plenty of
farm boys around the lake who could
handle the Stiletto. Henry didn't need

troubled Gillespie. After moment he
said:
HE may be holding on to Henry in

man, and after he's busted he'll be

CHAPTER XIII.
The Gate of Dreams.

In nv heart / was anxious to do
justice to Gillespie. Sad it is that we
are all so given to passing solemn
judgment on trifiing testimony 1 my
self am not impeccable. l should at
any time give to the lions a man who
uses his thumb as a paper-cutter; for
such one is clearly marked for hru-
tally. My prejudices rally as to
trumpet-call at the sight of girl
wearing overshoes or nibbling bon
bons-the one suggestive of predatory
habits and weak lungs, the other of
nervous dyspepsia
The night was fine, and after re-
turning my horse to the stable 1 con-
tinued on to the Glenarm boathouse. I
was strolling along, pipe in mouth,
and was halfway up the boathouse
steps when woman shraEk away
from the veranda rail, where she had
been standing, gazing out upon the
lake. There was no mistaking her.
She was not even disguised tonight,
and as L advanced across the little YER
anda she turned toward me. The Ian
tern over the boathouse door sutrused
US both as / greeted her.
Pardon me, Miss Holbrook; I'm
afraid 1 have disturbed your media
tions," I said. But if you don't
mind
You have the advantage of being
on your own ground" she replied

you will remain
1T is much nicer here than on st.
Agathas pier; you can see the lake
and the stars better. On the whole,
she laughed, 81 think 1 shall stay a
uril rot q
me-"
1 brought out some chairs and we
sat down by the rail, where we could
look out upon the star-sown heavens
and the dark floor of stars beneath.
Helen bent forward with her elbows
resting on the rail, her hands clasped
under her chin. The lamplight fell
full upon her slightly lifted head, and
upon her shoulders, over which lay
flmy veil. She hummed dreamily for
a moment while / watched her. Had
she one mood for the day and another
for the night? 1 had last seen her
that afternoon after an hour of ten
mis-, at which she was expert, and she
had run away through Glenarm gate
with taunt for my defeat; but now
the spirit of stars and of all earthss
silent things was upon her. I looked
twice and thrice at her clearly
outlined profile, at the brow with its
point of dark hair, at the hand where
on the emerald was clearly distfn-
guishable, and satisfied myself that
there could be no mistake about her.
You grow bold" 1 said, anxious to
hear her voice. You don't mind the
pfckets a bit"
No. I'm quite superior to walls
and fences You have heard of those
East Indians who appear and disap-
pear through closed doors; well, wen
assume that 1 had one of those fell
lows for an ancestori 1t will save the
