dangerous and complicated details of his plot,
was struck by the girls beauty That evening
he sought her out a second time. He was
touched and fiattered by the romantic interest
she showed in his person and his cause. The
beautiful girl stuck in his mind. He felt as If
he had always known her. He knew that he
would meet her again
Eugene felt the same mysterious attraction.
"Ah. would that I could help him!" She
thought of the lonely prince and his risky
ambitions that were being laughed about in
Paris as an open secret At the moment of
the coup d'etat she fairly burned with anxiety.
She dashed about the little fiat like tigress.
What can I do?" she asked herself. What
can do to aid him?"
That night Napoleon received a letter. Il
was from a romantic, inexperienced girl, but
ardent and sincere. 1t gave him her good
wishes and audaciously offered him all she
possessed should his projects need ready
money
After December 2 1t was the Empire in fact
If not in name. Napoleon gave hunts like a
sovereign, at Fontainebleau and Compiegne
At these he met again the beautiful Spanish
girl, fearless horsewoman, tireless dancer He
remembered above all her letetr written in
that dark hour of his wavering chances.
His love at first sight for Eugene was soon
noticed. showing itself fullblown in the most
open attentions. The girl and her mother had
continual invitations to Compegne and the
Tuileries.
Napoleon soon found the uselessness of
throwing his handkerchief at the beautiful
foreigner.
Yet he felt-he knew-that she loved him
passionately. 1t was desperate situation for
the girl, and his heart swelled with love and
pride and admiration of her. Once Eugene
and her mother were hidden to a parade re-
view at the Tuileries. In the courtyard Napo-
leon drew up his horse under the windows of
the first floor to salute the ladies. He wished
to dsmount and go up to them.
'Mademoiselle," he said, addressing Eugenie,
(which way shall 1 take to get to YOU"
"He was almost as new to the Tuileries as
any Of u.s." told the Eugene of eighty-three
years. "He did not know his way about the
palace"
"Sire," she called down to him, you must
come by the way of the chapel" AS fact
the corridor leading to the chapel was the
shortest route to these rooms, but Napoleon
understood her hidden meaning Again, one
afternoon at Compegne, when the flower of
the brand-new emperor's court was idling
a-ound his vingt-et-un table, she made the sit
uation clear to him. Seated at Napoleon's
right she consulted him from time to time as
to her play She found two picture cards in
her hand, counting twenty out of twenty-one
possible points, STAND or that" said the en-
peror, at is very high"

No More Room.

The railway carriage was crowded,
but 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 was slightly deaf,
and, not noticing the buns, thought
the boy wanted seat in the already
packed carriage; so he remarked: sa
Full up, my boy! No more room
inside!" 81.
A roar Of laughter followed his IT,

and the Southern Pacific has suffered
a great deal in this way.
The bulletin states that it is bad
policy to kill the birds, as the good
they do the forests largely outweighs
the harm. One method of protecting
poles or anything else attacked by the
birds is to furnish them with a ready
made nesting box. These boxes are
made from short length of natural
limb with hole bored for the aest

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

That Canada has come rapidly ta
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
1851, 1863, which with outlying points
to be heard from, may bring it up t.
IN millions as compared with 5,371,-
S15 in 1901. Though these figures are
large, they do not present 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 249o; 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 its 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 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 453,50S 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-362,76S as against 17S,657 in
1901; but in a territory as large as
this a population Of 1,643,000 is little
more than discernible in point of num-
bers. Tie work through it has been
great. Look at the towns that have
been built up; its cities, Winnipeg
with 135, 1000; 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
beginning. The next decade will
show 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 1t and
getting information from those who
may be in charge.
