EPIDEMIC OF ITCH IN WELSH
VILLAGE

'1n Dowlais, South Wales, about ff-
teen years ago, families were strick-
en- wholesale by a disease known as
the itch. Believe me, it is the most
terrible disease of its kind that
know Of, as it itches all through your
body and makes your life an inferno.
Sleep is out of the question and you
feel as if million mosquitoes were
attacking you at the same time.
knew dozen families that were so
affected
''The doctors did their best, but
their remedies were of no avail what
ever. Then the families tried drug
gist who was noted far and wide for
his remarkable cures. People came
to him from all parts of the country
for treatment, but his medicine made
matters still worse, as a last resort
they were advised by a friend to use
the Cuticura Remedies. am glad to
tell you that after a few days treat
ment with Cuticura Soap, Ointment
and Resolvent, the effect was wonder
full and the result was a perfect cure
in all cases.
Il may add that my three brothers,
three sisters, myself and all our FAM

Birthday Cake.

For small child, little cakes dec
grated with frosting and red candies
are always appreciated. There are so
many inexpensive and pretty things to
be bought now that ones ingenuity
need not be taxed to make something
pleasing. A cake baked in a small
round loaf, frosted in white and the
name written in chocolate with the
date, or it may be done with colored
sugar.
Get candy pail cover, sandpaper
and stain it, then bore the holes part
way through, making the hole to
stand the candle in. This candle
board may be used by every member
of the family, being brought in in
state with the cake in the center, and
the lighted candles around it. More
holes may be bored each year or they
may all be arranged when the board
is made to make the staining all look
alike
For a very young child the tiny
cake might be surrounded by the lit
tie candles the size of a match, that
are so popular with the little people
When there is small party, or if one
wishes to make a surprise cake, put
little gifts that will not be hurt, by
beating into the cake before baking.
Even older children are made happy
by such cake.

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
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 itsso 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 195 million dol
lars, as compared with 120 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 oSthe farmers of
Central Canada is seen in the sum
that has been spent during the past
two or three months by the farmers
ryho hox 20 =
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-fve 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 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
lot of free homestead land in splen-
did districts, and other lands can be
purchased at reasonable price from
railway and land companies.

Fish as Food.

Fish in one form or another is al
most universally recognized as one
of the important food materials that
enters into the diet of most Ameri-
can families.
The mode of capture affects the
market value. Fish caught by the
gills and allowed to die in the water
by slow degrees, as is the case where
gill nets are used, undergo decomposi-
ton very readily. and are inferior as
food
Fish are often landed alive and al
lowed to die slowly. This custom is
not only inhuman, but lessons the val
he of the fish. 1t has been found that
fish that are killed Immediately after
catching, remain firm and bear ship
ment better than those allowed to die
slowly.
Fish, because of their abundance,
cheapness and wholesomeness are in
valuable as an article of food 1t is
less nutritious and less stimulating
than meat, as it contains less solids
and more water.
The idea that fish is a brain food
has been greatly exaggerated, because
1t is rich in phosphorus and the brain
having that chemical in its compost
ton which the fish is supposed to sup
ply. The fact is that many meats
have as large a proportion of phos-
phorus as fish Being easily digested-
and therefore a good food for brain
workers, may be one reason why the
idea prevailed.
