The Way EverIast;nu.

A compass can direct ones course
in a forest; but a good trail is a bet
ter help and may " from danger as
well as difiuclty. So absolute truth
is not so helpful In the conduct OF
life as the way of righteousness trod-
den from generation TO generation by
the feet of the good, that path in
which Jesus leads the way. The
Light of the world lived our life, en-
dured our, temptations, tasted our sor-
rows. His goodness was human as
we'll as divine, and so through the
ages increasing multitudes have fol-
lowed him, and have not walked in
darkness. The most human Of books
is the Bible, becaue it is a record and
not a philisophy-the most human
and the most divine. The way that
has been followed by the noble liv-
ing and the noble dead is plain and
practical. 1t guides safely in life's
perils and perplexities, and it leads
home.

The railway carriage was crowded,
but a very fat old gentleman who sat
by the window calmly ignored the
ominous looks of the passengers for
taking up so much room.
A boy selling buns poked his head
In at the window and inquired:
Buns, sir?"
The old gentleman vas slightly deaf,
and, not noticing the buns, thought
the boy wanted a seat in the already
packed carriage; so he remarked:
Full up. my boy! No more room

Annette Not a Necessity.

DR.. John R. Murlin of New York, as
sistant professor of physiology at the
Cornell university medical college. in
an article in the October number of
the Journal of the Outdoor Life, com
pares the food we eat to the fuel used
in furnishing steam and power for an
engine. In selecting our food he says
that we should eat enough to furnish
energy for the days work, but that
much more than this is not needed.
He holds that the appetite is not a ne
cessity for good digestion. There is
no fallacy Of nutrition" he says,
greater than that which supposes
that a food cannot be digested and
utilized without appetite" Most of the
food we eat, fully four-ifths, goes to
supply energy for our everyday tasks,
while less than one-fifth goes to sup
ply building material.

Those That Are Hapny.

God bless the fathers and mothers
who make it a practice to ask God
to bless their families; thrice happy
are the children who have such par
ents.
You need not ever be left alone to
tackle your difficulties, for Gods ears
are open to hear your requests to be
delivered from the darkness that
sometimes surrounds you. Always be
willing to receive nelp from his
bountiful hand. Do not ever doubt
his power to help you when you stand
in need of help from him.
Read his word carefully and pick
from 1t his promises to aid you on all
occasions when you most need his
aid. Be always very thankful to him.
Trust God every day in the year,
and be always ready to receive his
blessings that he has in store for you
and yours. Be always thankful for
his assistance and keep looking up to
him for all the blessings that he is
SO anxious to bestow upon you.
There is nothing SO much to be de-
spised as ingratitude to God He
loves the cheerful receiver of his
goodness and will remember them
when in trouble.
Let your conversation daily be in
praise of God for all his goodness dis
played toward you. Give him the
credit for all of your deliverances
from sin and troubles. and so walk
through this world that you may have
an abundant entrance into Heaven.

TWO CURED OF SKIN TROUBLE

about two years ago, and l have never
had a touch of it since.

dies, he sent for some Cuticura Soap,
Cuticura Ointment and Resolvent, and
used them himself and he was cured.
His flesh was covered with stuff like
fish scsles, especially in the winter, and
he even had it in his hair so bad he had
to keep his hair cut close to his head.

CANADA'S CENSUS
. THlRTY-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
7,081,869, which with outlying points
to be heard from, may bring it up to
7H 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 a 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 24%; the per-
centage Of increase in Canada for the
decade is 1920. Thus 1t 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
Elements with plenty of room for five
or six times as many more. The pop
ulation Of Alberta is set down at 372,-
919, as compared with 1902 in 1901;
Saskatchewan 453,508 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.
lumbia-362, 1853 as against 178,657 in
1901; but in a territory as large as
this a population of 1,643, 900 is little
more than discernible in point of num-
bers. The work through it has been
great. Look at the towns that have
been built up; it's cities, Winnipeg
with 1876, 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 vel
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 1t will
be we'll worth while inspecting it and
getting information from those who
may be in charge.

A blessed a-iviIeoe.

1t matters not where or what we
are, SO we be Christ's servants. They
are happy, who have a wide field and
great strength to fulfill his missions
of compassion; and they, too, are
blessed who, in sheltered homes and
narrow ways of duty, wait upon him
in lowly services of love. Wise or
simple, gifted or slender is knowledge
in the worlds gaze, or in hidden paths,
high or low, encompassed by affections
and joys of home. or lonely and con-
tent in God alone, what matters, SO
that they bear the seal of the living
God? Blessed company. unknown to
each other, unknowing even them
selves?

The owe Of Christ.

Many people are all the while
thinking, How a we get others to
help us? But the question that Jesus
Christ would have us ask ourselves,
is, What can we do to help others? 1t
is a gospel rule not to look every man
on his own condition alone, but every
man also on the things of others.
There is no such altruism anywhere
taught as in the gospel of Christ, be-
cause that altruism is founded first
on God, and, being thus substantial
ly based, is fitting to become the
most serviceable kind of service to
mankind. A mere sentiment of broth
erly interest is not enough-what is
needed is a dynamic of love to drive
the altruism. Such a dynamic is the
love of Christ, which constraineth us.

Most EickIe Man


When Col. William M. Howard, now
a member of the tariff board, was
e~lectioneering for congress one
autumn in bygone days he struck a
backwoods county in Georgia, and got
very busy talking softly to the voters.
He was much concerned about a man
named John, who was now for him,
then against him, and always change
able.
Whats the matter with John?" the
colonel asked one of his constituents.
Jaw, you can't tell nothin' about
John, colonel" was the assurance.
He is the most tickle man you ever
see. Why, he has had religion so
many times, and been baptized in the
creek down here so often that the
bullfrogs know him every time he's
'mersed.'
