OFFICIAL INVITATION
TO AMERICANS
HOW ROBERT ROGERS, MINISTER
OF THE INTERIOR, IN WINNIPEG
ADDRESS, ISSUES WELCOME
OF AMERICANS TO WEST
ERN CANADA.

During the course of a reply 70 an
address presented to Hon. Robert Rog.
ers, the newly appointed Minister of
the Interior Of Canada at banaue.
given at Winnipeg In his honor that
gentleman spoke on immigration. The
tone of his remarks was that he intend
ed to pursue an aggressive and for.
ward policy In the matter of immigrs,
ton. In part, he said:
"The most important branch per.
haps OF that department untertor) Is
that Of immigration.
''If there is anything moro than an.
other we want here 1t is a greater pop.
ulation, and 1t shall be my duty to pre-
sent to the people in all parts of the
world where desirable emigrants are
to be found the advantages and the
great possibilities Of this country. We
have received in the past a reasonably
large immigration from south OF the
international boundary, and in this
connection let me say just word for
our American cousins who have found
happy homes amongst us, and those
whom we hope to welcome in greater
numbers in the years to come. There
are hundreds Of thousands Of them IN
our prairie provinces, happy in the en-
joyment Of freedom as great as they
ever knew, and all contributing in a
material way towards the development
OF Canada. We are not blind to their
value as settlers. They come better
equipped with scientific farming
knowledge than most OF our emf
grants, and constitute without doubt
the wealthiest class OF emigrants any
new country has ever known. AS
head of the immigration department It
will be my privilege to offer them
welcome hearty and sincere, and to
SO contribute to their welfare that I'M
der the protecting folds OF the Union
Jack they will enjoy as great degree
of liberty and happiness as under the
Stars and Stripes. The Borden gov
eminent cherishes nothing but the
kindliest feelings for the people OF the
great republic to the south, and will
do all in its power to Increase the
bonds Of kinship and neighborly good
feeling that has 80 long existed.
(Hear, hear.)
while we adopt a vigorous emf
grafton policy in that country, we will
also adopt the same vigorous policy IN
other parts of the world. We will go
to England Ireland and Scotland, and
every other country irrespective Of
race, creed or nationality, where we
can find suitable and desirable emf
grants for this great country. / think
much good work can be done in those
countries, and especially perhaps at
the present time in England, Ireland
and Scotland. Now, then, 1t will be
my duty to stir up that policy In the
most vigorous manner possible"

IDEAS or ANARCHY ARE MANY
Various Groups Have Opposing Theo

Its Effects.

The word "anarchy" was first used
in the French form by Proudhon in
1910 when he published pamphlet
entitled, What Is Property" But the
basic idea of anarchy dates far back
of that point in history, for the world,
it may safely be said, has always had

Another group says that anarchy is
an economic and social system where

Still another defines true anarchy az

Capt. Archibald w Butt, the presi-

tNde chilly.
Eyes; it's too bad" agreed tho
other.
There ensued an ominous pause.
You know" remarked Butt senten.
tiously, "telephoning seems to be 4
habit, a bad habit, IN Washington.
People are beginning to Issue their
invitations by telephone. They phone
on the slightest ~provocation. They
don't seem to know when not to tele-
phone. They eve get you OIL of bed

SCRATCHED TILL BLOOD RAN

when my boy was about three
months old his head broke out with a
rash which was very itchy and ran a
watery fluid. We tried everything we
could but he got worse all the time,
till 1t spread to his arms, legs and
then to his entire body. He got so
bad that he came a dying. The
rash would itch so that he , would
scratch till the blood ran, and a thin
yellowish stuff would be all over his
pillow in the morning. I had to put
mittens on his hands to prevent him
tearing his skin. He was so weak
and run down that he too fainting
spells as If he were dying. He was
almost a skeleton and his little hands
were thin like claws.
HE was bad about eight months
when we tried Cuticura Remedies. I
had not laid him down in his cradle
in the daytime for a long while. I
washed him with Cuticura Soap and
put on n application of Cuticura
Ointment and he was SO soothed that
he could sleep. You don't know how
glad I vas he felt better. 1t took n
box of Cuticura Ointment and pretty
near one cake of Cuticura Soap to
cure him. I think our boy would have
died but for the Cuticura Remedies
and I shall always remain a firm
friend Of them. There has been no
return of the trouble. I shall be glad
to have you publish this true state
ment of his cure" (Signed) Mrs. M.

She was clad, down to the knees, in

see the tops of her small furtrimmed
boots. Upon her head h wore a
little turban-like cap Of seal. The
smartly tailored lines of h coat en-
phasized her young slenderness. Her
bootmaker must have had a reputa-
ton upon some metropolitan boule-
ward, and her head-gear came clearly,
under the category of what is known
as modes. Her eyes were very blue
and her hair was golden, warmed, he
thought, as she stood there In the

there, above the fog, waiting for 1t TO
lift again the veil of mystery which
it had drawn across the tragic scene
he had just witnessed.
The month was August, and the
long arctic day had already begun to
know it's diurnal twilight. A fort
night ago the sun had dipped, for the
first time, below the horizon. BY now
there were four or five hours, out of
every 25. that would pass for night.
The sun set while he hung there in
the air, and as it did so, with a new
slant of the breeze the fog rolled itself
up into a great violet-colored cloud,
leaving the earth, the ice, the sea I'M
yelled below him. And there, in the
open water of the little bay, he saw a
ship, and on the shore a cluster OF
rude huts.
1t struck him, even from the height
at which he scared, that the ship, tied
to an ice-f1oe in the shelter Of the
great headland, did not look like a
whaler, nor like the sort of craft
which an arctic explorer would have
selected for his purposes. 1t had more
the trim smartness of a yacht.
They were probably all asleep down
there, he reflected. 1t was nearly mid
night and he saw no signs Of life my
where. He would drop down for a
nearer look.
He descended. with a sudden hawk
like pounce, which was one OF his
more recent achievements in the navi-
CATION of the air, checked himself
again at about the level of the mast
head. with a flashing, forward swoop,
like a man diving in shallow water;
then, with a sudden effort, brought
himself up standing, his planes nearly
vertical, and, with a backward spring,
alighted, clear Of his wings, on the ice
foe Just opposite the ship.
AS he did so. he heard a little sur
prised cry, half of fear, half of aston
ishment. 1t was a girls voice.
