Giving Satisfaction.

In "a Century of English Ballads, I"
a recent book by Harold Simpson,
says the Pittsburg Gazette-Times,
there is a delightful story of Stephen
Incledon, an eminent tenor of orher
days, whose singing of "Black-Eyed
Susan" was peculiarly to the peoples
taste.
While staying at country inn, In
cledon had quarreled during the even
ing with an army officer. He imagined
he had closed the controversy by 60
ing off to bed, but the officer, left
downstairs to brood over his wrongs,
thought otherwise.
Making his way to Incledon's bed
room, he found the singer fast asleep.
When he succeeded in waking him, a
matter of some difficulty the officer
demanded satisfaction.
Satisfaction" murmured Incledon,
sleepily. We'll, YOU shall have it."
Whereupon he sat up in bed and sang
"Black-Eyed Susan" in his best style.
There he said. lying down again.
my singing of that song has given
satisfaction to thousands, and it will
have to satisfy you!" And he turned
over and went to sleep again.

MORE EXCELLENT
REPORTS FROM
WESTERN CANADA
Grains Are Heading Out
Rapidly and Harvest Is
Now Approaching With
a Great Demand for
Harvest Help.

Last week it was pointed out In
these columns that there would be
WELD of about 2OO,0O0,000 bushels of
wheat throughout Western Canada, an
increase of about 100000,000 over the
previous year. and that the demand
for farm help was very great. Con-
firmation of this news is to hand and
the cry still is for more help. The
Canadian authorities are hopeful that
the friends Of the 100000 or 100000
Americans who have gone to Canada
during the last few years will come to
the help of these people and induce
as many able-bodied men as they pos
sibly can to take advantage of the
low rate which is being offered from
all points on the Canadian Boundary,
and particulars of which can be had
from any of the following Agents of
the Canadian Government: M. V. Nc

Every facility will be afforded men
of the right stamp to secure advantage
of these low rates. To those who pro-
pose to go, it may be said that they
will have this splendid opportunity of
securing first hand information as to
the excellent producing character of
the lands in Manitoba, Saskatchewan
and Alberta. They will have the OPP
portunity of seeing some of the great
est wheat fields in the world and prob
ably the largest yield of wheat, oats
and barley that has ever been grown
on the Continent. And all this on
land some of which cost the settler
only the $1,000 necessary to enter for
his homestead, or, if he purchased,
in some cases, costing him from $500
to $1,000 per acre, but which is now
worth from $500 to $4,000 per acre.
Even at these prices the land is re-
markably cheap as will be realized
when the statement is made that from
20 to Is bushels per acre and over
of wheat are grown, netting the farm
er from $500 to $1,000 per acre; and
this on land that he got for nothing
or paid merely a nominal price. III
fact the production shows that $500
to $4,000 per acre would be a nominal
price for land that would produce az
these lands produce.
