SCALP WAS BADLY AFFECTED

T am more than gratified by the successful results 1 obtained by the use of the Cuticura Remedies. For several years my scalp was very bad ly affected with dandruff and scales My scalp itched terribly at times and my hair fell out. My coat collar would be actually white with the dandruff profession being that of barber, was particular about having my hair in good condition, and was also in position to try many lotions, etc, for the scalp. These had little or no ef- feet. l had heard so much about the Cuticura Remedies that I resolved to try them. shampooed my head with Cuticura Soap twice week and after drying my head thoroughly, I anointed parts of my scalp with Cuti- cura Ointment. I was pleased from the outset, and continued to keep up this treatment. To think that only three cakes of Cuticura Soap and one ment rid my head of this annoying trouble made me feel quite contented. I have now got thick growth of hair and I am never troubled with any dandruff or itching of the scalp. There is no question but that the Cuticura Remedies cured me. frequently recommend them to my customers. and they think a great deal of them" (Signed) John F. Williams, BOT Nor folk Street.

325,000 IN ONE YEAR
THE IMMIGRATION TO CANADA
 SURPRISES ALL RECORD.

The returns recently issued by the Canadian Immigration Branch shows that upwards of 325,o00 persons ar- rived in Canada during the past twelve months, declaring their inten- ton of becoming settlers in that coun- try. Of this number about 130, ,000 were from the United States, the bal ance being from the British Isles and Northern Europe. It will thus be seen that the sturdy farming element that has gone forward from the United States Is being splendidly supplement- ed by an equally sturdy settlement from across the seas. The lure of Canadian wheat, oats, barley and fax grown on the rich prairie of Western Canada is constantly attracting more and more, and year by year the tide of immigrants to the Western Canada plains increases; there Is no ebb to this tide. The Canadian authorities are not surprised at the number from the United States being as large as 1t is but they did not look for so large an immigration from the old countries.

The Red Star today gives up to the America-Canada line two of the best special emgrant steamers afoat, the Gothland and the Samland These vessels heretofore in the Antwerp-New York service are now to be operated from Rotterdam to Canadian ports"
 On the date of the above dispatch word came to the Immigration branch that the Vanguard of the 1911 army of United States settlers reached Win nipeg at 1:30 o'clock this morning. There was a solid train load of eff fleets, comprising Al carloads and two colonist sleepers attached to the train, which contained the members of 25 families.

He got a frosty recep ton.
