Takes His Bicycle and
Forces an Apology.

ALBANY, April 12.-Gov. Dix's policy
as to boys who throw stones is this:
Chase and spank them. II they can be
caught. If not. grab their bicycles and
hold them until they write an apology,
enroll themselves in an anti-stone-throw-
ing league and promise to use their in
nuence to punish other bad boys.
The governor adopted this device in
dealing with a twelve-year-old youngster
who hurled rocks at Mrs. Dix and him.

Who can tell the terrible suffering Of
this poor boy until his mother finally

was in misery greater, probably, than
words can describe. Read what his
mother says:

ResinoI Ointment is prescribed by
physicians for every skin irritation,
including cuts, sores, scalds and
burns, and is a remedy for boiIs, car
buncles, felons, piles, eczema, bar
ber's itch, letter, shingles, psoriasis,

CANADA'S CENSUS
A THIRTY-TWO PER CENT IN
CREASE IN THE PAST TEN
YEARS.

That Canada has come rapidly to
the front in the past ten years is am
ply shown in the results of the census
recently made public. The population
Of the Dominion is now placed at
7,081,S69 which with outlying points
to be heard from, may bring it up to
IA millions as compared with 5,371,-
315 in 1901. Though these figures are
large, they do not present a total as
large as was expected but they do
show = greater increase Of percentage
in population for the decade than any
similar increase in the United States.
The highest percentage ever reached
by the Republic was 24Go; the per
centage Of increase in Canada for the
decade is 1920. Thus it will be seen
that the provinces west of the lakes,
with the great broad fertile acres
ready for the sowing and immediate
reaping Of grain and the Valleys Of
British Columbia capable of producing
fruit with which to supply it's neigh
boring provinces east of the noun
tains, have attracted numbers, which
has exceeded the most optimistic Of
the expectations Of ten years ago.
Upon the prairies Of the ten years
ago there was but a spare scattering
OF people; but today, no matter in
which way you go, take any direction,
and you find homes and farms and
good ones too, occupied by the very
best class of people in good sized set
item ents with plenty of room for five
OF six times as many more. The pop
UlatiOn of Alberta is set down at 372,-
919, as compared with 1902 in 1901;
Saskatchewan 453,5OS as compared
with 1920 in 1901; Manitoba's 454,-
691 compares well with its 255,211 in
1901; and so does that of British Co.
1umbia- ,768 as against 1856 in
1901; but in a territory as large as
this a population of 1,643, 900 is little
more than discernibIe in point of num-
bers. The work through it has been
great. Look at the towns that have
been built up; its cities, Winnipeg
with 1885, 900; Vancouver with upwards
of 100000; Calgary with $4,000; Ed
monitor, Regina, Saskatoon; Leth-
bridge; Medicine Hat, Moosejaw,
splendid cities-none better any
where; well maintained and equipped.
These have come with existence and
been built as they have been built by
reason of the splendid agricultural
country by which they are surround
ed. The population is scarcely dis
cernible. A population ten or twelve
times that shown by the recent
census could be easily maintained in
even greater wealth than that which
maintains the present numbers. There
is certainly a wonderful future for
Western Canada and that which goes
to the development of the west will
enrich the last. This is the growing
time in Canada and what has been
done in the past ten years is but a
beginning. The next decade will
show a far greater advancement. In
the meantime Canada is bidding well
come the progressive and industrious
citizen. The invitation is a standing
one. At the forthcoming land exposi-
ton in Chicago, Canada will have one
of the best exhibits of farm products
that has ever been made and it will
be well worth while inspecting it and
getting information from those who
may be in charge.
