populating the abandoned farms of the
Eastern States and gaining prosperity
for himself and his children.
The man who is tied to the city by
his business or profession, yet who
genuinely desires for himself and his
family the peculiar kind of content
ment, health and self-reliance that are
bred of country life, has the solution
of the problem in his own hands. Let
him first choose the region in which
he wishes to live. Then let him lease
a farm for year, spend as much time
on it as he can afford and learn all he
can about making it productive. If he
takes kindly to the experiment, let
him go in quest of farm of his own,
buy it (and farms are sold on uncom-
monty easy terms Of payment) and
make up his mind to retire to it when
ever circumstances will permit. Own
ing a country home is not a specula-
ton. 1t is one of the soundest and
sanest investments in the world.

Advertise" That's the watchword
TO many a twentieth century success,
and that watchword is becoming to
be more and more generally adopted,
All kinds of people, many varieties of
interest, are turning to the advertis-
ing method in these good young days
OF 1910
Consider for a moment the columns
beyond columns under the heading of
two words-a tale of tragedy in itself
Situations Wanted" These col
umns are divided into two classes
Situations Wanted, Male" and sit
uations Wanted, Fenale''-and if you
will take both classes in the Sunday
newspapers of New York or Chicago
on any given Sunday you will find
that thousands of men and women are
appealing to the world through those
little want ads"
There are starving children in those
columns. You cant see them, bur
they're there, just the same. Where?
you ask In this two-line notice, for
instance, which says that man, 40,
sober, Industrious, married, wants
work at anything.
The industrious man Of 40 is the
father of three children, who, at the
moment you carelessly glance at the
advertisement-paid for with almost
the last nickel-are waiting for a
square meal until papa gets work
again"
There are great many men in the
want ad" columns who are anxious TO
so to work at anything" This is
an excellent index of the proposition
that in big cities men who are willing
to work cannot by any means get
work The plutocratic theorist and
parlor philosopher are often heard to
declare that "A man who is willing TO
work can always get work. There's
lots of work for every one.
Here are a few sample ads" of the
men who apparently need work bad

The English Thief That Dropped
In to See His Lawyer.
Here is a story of genuine instance
of the kind of business which fell to
the lot of a once notorious London
thieves counsel" One day thick
set man, with cropped poll of UNI
mistakable Newgate cut, skunk into
this counsePs room, when the follow
ing dialogue took place:
Morning, sir" said the man, touch
ing his forelock.
Morning" said the counsel. what
do you want?"
well, sir, I'm sorry to say, sir, our
little Ben, sir, has 'ad a misfortin.
Fust offense, sir, only wipe"
We'll, WE'LL" interrupted the coun-
sell Get on
$50, sir, we thought as you'd 'ad
all the family business we'd like you
to defend him, sir"
"All right" said the counsel; "see
my clerk
Eyes, sir" continued the thief, "but
I thought I'd like to make sure you'd
attend yourself. sir. We're anxious
cos it's little Ben, our youngest kid"
ooh, that will be all right Give
Simmons the fee"
We'll, sir" continued the man, shift
ing about uncomfortably. 81 was go
ing to arst you, sir, to take little
less. You see, -wheedingly-"It'
little Ben-his first misfortin"-
"No. mol" said the counsel impa-
tiently. Clear OUT"
But, sir, you've had all our bust
ness. Well, sir, if you won't you
won't, so I'll pay you now, sir" And
as he doled out the guineas, 81 may
as well tell you, sir, you wouldn't a
got the counters If l hadn't had little
bit of luck on the way."-From The

Divorce Here and in Canada.

The divorce history of Canada, when
compared with the records shown in
the recent reports of the United
States investigations, is almost incon-
ceivable. Outside the maritime prov
inces, three in number, and the prov
ince of British Columbia, which con-
tain approximately 1,325,000 inhabit-
ants, the only divorce granting power
for Canadians is the Dominion Parlia-
ment at Ottawa
For the last ten years the absolute
divorces granted by Parliament have
been as follows: 1900, 5; 1901, 2: 1903,
2; 1904, 6; 1905, 9; 1906, IA; 1907. 6:
1908, S; 1909, Is. In the four prov
inces where local divorce courts exist
the proportion has been but litue more
and the local divorces granted add lit
tie to the general total
The significance of these figures is
appreciate only when contrasted with
the records recently made public in the
United States. There were $4,000
American divorces granted in 1906, and
the records of the American govern
ment estimate that one in each twelve
marriages results in divorce.

food cost that an effort is being made
to counterfeit the shortage which
causes it, largely because farmers are
moving to industrial centers, by en-
ploying women in agriculture 1t is
said that fully 100000 German wom-
en- are operating farms or working
thereon. Germany has been able to
keep its supply of foodstuffs to the
maximum figures by intensive farming,
the employment of millions of female
hands, many of the workers coming
from Poland, Bohemia and Lithuania.
In London the retail prices are not
greatly different from those prevalent
in Chicago, says a writer in the Rec
Ord-Herald. Here is a random list,
with the prices given in American
money. The quotations are from good
shops, not the highest priced, nor are
any instance. Bacon, II to % cents;
beef, IS to 26; bread, two-pound loaf,
6; coffee, "a to A; eggs, "a to "A;
ham, unlocked, 20 to %; ham, cooked,
4S to 81; lamb outlets, Sc; lard, 10 to
49,; milk, 8; mutton chops, "a to 30;
steak, 20 to So; tea, q to 81; veal
"a to 3D.
This list is a fair average one, and
the prices appear to compare favor
ably with those quoted in American
cities during March. The high cost Of
living is as surely abroad in the Brit
ish metropolis as it is in the bigger
cities of this country
In Austria-Hungary the problem of
living cost has become so serious that
the chambers of commerce throughout
the empire are investigating. In illus
tration of the advance in prices IS
shown by this table, furnished by the
'magistracy of Reichenberg.

There are, too, plenty of chances for

You can enter all sorts of lucrative

always got to put up your capital first

OF all the advertising columns it is
probable that those headed person
ais are read by the largest number of
people. The casual reader will often
glance through the personal advertise

looking through any of the other
classified advertising. Firing sons
and wandering daughters have mes
