RECIPROCITY DEFEATED.
Canadians Turned Down Free
Trade with the United States.

The outcome OF the election held
in Canada Friday, means that the
Fielding Knox reciprocity agreement,
ratified by the American congress in
extra session, will not be introduced
when the twelfth parliament assem-
bles next month, and a revised basis
of trade with the United States. look
ing to closer commercial relations,
will not be possible in the immediate
future. The Conservatives are com
mitted to the polity trade expansion
within the empire and a closed door
against the Uuited States.
As a result of this action, the press
and men able to Judge such matters
are freely predicting unheard of high
prices on all commodities effected by
the Canadian tariff schedule for the
next two years. Wheat jumped up
4c a bushel Friday, but the farmer
who gets the benefit OF this increase
will find himself paying Sc more for
absolute necessities of life. Not that
We are depending upon Gambia for
such articles. but the removal OF the
tariff would have had a tendency to
reduce prices both ways, and this
would have broken a link in the
trusts chain of high prices. For the
present we are at the mercy of the
trust barons, and the outcome will
be watched with interest by those |
who must pay more for living ex-
penses but get no more for their la
Dor and products.

VEST POCKET DINNERS.
Why tho Capsule Meals Will Hardly
Achieve Popularity,

Housekeeper: 1t is said that a Ger
man student Of food concentration has
succeeded so well with his experiments
that a single small capsule now suf-
fees him for a full meal and that ten
seconds is the average time he spends
at either his breakfast, luncheon or
dinner. The prediction Is freely made
that within q few years we shall all be
subsisting upon capsules, there will be
no more cooking In u households and
the servant problem will be solved most
beautifully. OF curse under these con-
ditions there would be no more pub
lie dinners or banquets of state, our
caterers would be thrown out Of en-
ployment and the great hotels would
become simply d~ormitories. We would
buy our meals at the drug stores and
carry them In our pockets. The sign
Quick Lunch" would disappear from
our streets, for we could all be walk
ing restaurants.
Whatever the possibility OF such a
condition from the scientific stand
point, there Is not the slightest danger
of It's realization within the lifetime
of the present generation. Most OF US,
to be frank, are too fond OF eating and
drinking to be content with capsule
repasts, however convenient as time
savers. The element Of sociability, too,
must be taken into consideration. The
gathering Of q family about the table
three times a day adds UNNECESSARILY
to human enjoyment. 1t Is the place Of
all places where good cheer should pre-
vail. There are sufficient influences at
work for the destruction Of home life
In these busy days without adding one
more. We fear h food capsule will
be a long time achieving the popularity
at present enjoyed by beefsteak and
potatoes,

IF DIVORCED, WEAR
LITTLE FINGER RING
Chicago Fad Is Economical, in
That Wedding Ring Can Be
Cut Down to Fit.

Chicago.-Special: A new fad in the
Chicago divorce colony has beer
started by Mrs. Marina del Gado Parke,
divorced wife of the secretary Of the
Board Of Supervising Traction Engi-
neers. She explained. to friends the
significance Of a plain gold band ring
on her little finger.
"Why that's q divorce ring" she
said. II invented 1t. And now quite
q few women are wearing rings like
1t. Pretty 500 everybody will know
that a plain ring on the right little fin
ger means it's wearer is divorced, and
the plan of indicating a persons matri-
monial status In this way will come
into general use.
'It's so economical, too. The d.
vorced woman can have her wedding
ring cut down to fit the little finger.
1.-The divorce ring will save a lot Of
embarrassment. New acquaintance
will not inquire about your husband
and old friends who haven't heard Of
your divorce will not embarrass Them
selves with awkward questions"

l%ETHBRIDGE, ALBERTA,
SECURES DRY FARM.
ING CONGRESS
FOR 1912.

The term. dry farming" does not

MARK TWAIN'S FIRST
VISIT TO NEW YORK
Humorist Tells of the Glories Of
Old Crystal Palace, Won
der Of the World.

In Harpers, Albert Bigelow Paine,
the authorized b~iographer OF Mark
Twain. tells Of the humorist's first visit
to New York, and gives for the first
time a letter of Mark Twain's describ-
ing his visit.
New York was a great and amazing
city. It almost frightened him. It
covered the entire lower end of Man.
ed that n day II would cover 1t all.
The Worlds Fair building, the Crystal
palace, stood q good way out. 1t was
where Bryant park Is now, at Forty
second street and Sixth avenue Young
Clemens classed It as n Of the Won
ders Of the world and wrcse lavishly
Of It's marvels. A portion OF a letter
to his sister, Pamela, has been pre-
served and II is given here, not only
for what IL contains. but as the ear
Hest existing specimen OF his compo-
sition. The fragment concludes what
time a letter of Mark Twain's describ-
ton:
"From the gallery (second fioor).

OF the different countries represented.

gaudy tapestry, etc.. with the busy

scription.
""The machinery department is on
the main floor. but / cannot enumerate
any of 1t on account Of the lateness or

more than q week to examine every
thing on exhibition; and l was only In
q little over two hours tonight. ! only
glanced at about one-third of the ar
ticles; and having a poor memory, /
have enumerated scarcely any of even
the principal objects. The visitors to
the palace average 5000 daily-double
the population of Hannibal. The price
of admission being so cents, they take
in about $4,000.
1.-The Latting observatory (height
about 280 feet), is near the palace
from It you can obtain q grand view
of the city and the country around.
The Croton aqueduct. to supply the city
with water, is the greatest wonder yet.
Immense sewers are laid across the bed
of the Hudson river and pass through
the country to Westchester county,
where q whole river Is turned from its
course and brought to New York. From
the reservoir in the city to the West
chester county reservoir the distance
Is 38 miles, and, If necessary, they could
easily supply every family in New York
with 100 barrels of water per day.

pIFFEREUT coLoReo SETTINGS.
For Earrings Is Latest Fad-Much
imitation Jewellery Worn.


Milwaukee Sentinel: Earrings are
coming into style again." was the re-
mark Of j. s. Crate of Chicago, a trav-
cling jewelry salesman for over thirty
years, and accounted one Of the veter-
ans OF his trade. II dom think you
can say that they were really out OF
STYLE" he continued, even though In
the last few years the sales of this par
ticular feminine ornament have been
small.
"One of the curious fads In earrings
now Is to have them with different col
ored settings. For instance, pearls are
a great favorite, n a will
want a pure white one for her right
ear and a black or blush one for her
left. ] can't attempt to explain this.
but there Is no accounting for a wom-
ans tastes anyway.
Another novelty II the jewelry line
just now is the latest thing in womep's
watch chains. These are made with
long slender links of gold with pearl
settings between the links. Pretty ex-
~pensive? Yes. but hat seems to make
them all the more stylish. Turquoises
are the thing I'm necklaces just at pres
ent. These are even more expensive,
but cost has eve yet helped to kill
off a fad.
I'm bracelets the trade Is quiet now,
and only two styles can be said to be In
vogue. This Is the chain bracelet and
the plain band with a signet locket. In
wedding rings I don't think we will
ever get away from the plain gold
band, but they are being made smaller
and thinner every year.

on the market every year, and much

The By-Products of a Missionary.

In the American Magazine Ray STAN
nard Baker writes the first of a series
Of articles on wonderful Hawaii-A
World Experiment Station" An inter-
esting part Of the article has to do with
the money that the missionaries
have made in the islands. Following is
an extract: ,
zone Of the early and earnest mis-
sionaries was DIR. Bond of Kohala in
the island of Hawaii. A generation or
more ago he received a legacy Of $4,000
and Immediately bought a large tract
Of land of the Hawaiians. A few years
later, when the sugar industry began
to spread, a corporation bought DIR.
Bonds land. giving him paid-up stock
In payment. The years went on. Be-
fore DIR. Bond died he had received, as
a result of his investment of $4,000 In
land, between $685. 900 and $500. 900 in
dividends. OF course he never turned
a hand in earning any of this money,
although when it began to come In In
such amounts he distributed much Of 1t
In various good causes He paid back
to the American board of missions
every cent paid him in salary and
many thousands of dollars besides and
he continued his missionary work as
long as he was able. He also contri-
buted literally to educate the disap-
pearing Hawaiians, especially to the
Kohala girls school Of which he was a
trustee. And yet, when he died, his
estate was worth over $500, 900. or some
rs times as much money as he in
vested originally.
But the missionary families are by
no means the only residents who have
profted by keeping their hands on the
land. Other white men, early traders
and German and English settlers. have
also used their opportunities to good
advantage, and finally many Hawaiians
A. a. - hana os - r~O@l "a
vice, or to an unusual streak Of native
caution, have refused to part with their
lands and as a result where these lands
happened to be valuable. they are now
living In modest idleness on the rent
