Childish Inference,

Little Julia was taking her after
noon walk with her mother. Her at
tention was attracted for the first time
to a large church editice 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-
plained 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
1ows, drew her own conclusions.
"Oh, look, mother" she called out,
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 a
district of a fair amount of settle
ment in any Of the three Provinces of
Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta,
but has it's 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 it's 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 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
500 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 visiting friends
in the different states, and they all ex-
press themselves as we'll 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.

INSOMNIA
Leads to Madness, if not Remedied IL
Time.

Experiments satisfied me, some 5
years ago. writes a Topeka woman,
that coffee was the direct cause of the
insomnia from which l suffered ter
ribly, as well as the extreme nervous
ness and acute dyspepsia which made
life q most painful thing for me.
Il had beer a coffee drinker since
childhood, and did not like to think
that the beverage was doing me all this
harm. But it was, and the time came
when I had to face the fact, and pro.
tect myself. l therefore gave up coffee
abruptly and absolutely, and adopted
Postum as my hot drink at meals.
Il began to note improvement in my
condition very soon after I took on
Postum. The change proceeded grad
ually, but surely, and it was a matter of
only a few weeks before l found my
self entirely relieved-the nervousness
passed away, my digestive apparatus
was restored to normal efficiency. and
l began to sleep, restfully and peace
fully.
These happy conditions have con-
tinued during all of the 5 years, and I
am safe in saying that l owe them n
tirely to Postum, for when l began to
drink it I ceased to use medicine"

Why does Great Britain buy its
oatmeal of US?

Certainly it seem like carrying
Goals to Newcastle to speak of export
Ing oatmeal to Scotland and yet. every
year the Quaker Oats Company sends
hundreds Of thousands of cases of
Quaker Oats to Great Britain and
Europe.
The reason is simple; while the
English and Scotch have for centuries
eaten oatmeal in quantities and with a
regularity that has made them the
most rugged physically, and active
mentally of all people, the American
has been eating oatmeal and trying all
the time to improve the methods of
manufacture so that he might get that
desirable foreign trade.
How we'll he has succeeded would
be seen at a glance at the export re.
ports of Quaker Oats. This brand is
recognized as without a rival in clean
Illness and delicious flavor. 81

Real Early Risjnu.

Farmer Brown and Farmer Jones
were near neighbOrs, and many a dis
pute took place as to who was the ear
lier riser. Both maintained that each
.eXcelled the other.
One day Farmer Brown determined
to put the subject to test. Rising very
early one morning, about two o'clock
he proceeded to visit his friend. Great
was his establishment when he saw
Mrs. Jones hanging out the clothes in
the garden.

This is the first important step
that has been taken by the new bu-

In mines is smaller than in the Unit

In addition to a mining engineer,
who will lecture ON greater safety In

who will give demonstrations in first

q complete corps of rescue men who
will teach the miners how to use the

This training will be free of cost to
