THRIFT OF THE SWISS.
Hard snd Perilous Work of the Hay
 makers Of the Alps.

Hard and Periious Work Of the Hay
 makers Of the Alps.
 The thrift of the Swiss turns every bit of ground in the Alps to the best account. If few square yards can anywhere be made or reclaimed the requisite labor is not gruaged
 The farmer makes the very soil He builds terraces along steep inclines. lines them with blocks of stone and then packs the earth on them. Thus he transforms the mountain and the rock into little patch. where he plants a vine or raises oats or corn. Along the edge of preciplces the peas ant haymaker goes in search of grass. clineing to the rock with Iron clamp CTS on his feet He hangs on the sides of the cliffs which imprisnn the valley and mows down few tufts of grass on craggy shelves here and there.
 His scythc on his shoulder, armed with his Iron shod stick. provided with his clamp irons. a cloth or net rolled up in hls bag. he sets out at midnight in order that the dawn may find him at work. During the two months Of hay harvest he goes down to the VII lnse only three or four times to renew his supply of food. By this hard and perilous occupation an Alpine mower makes from 3 Co 3 francs day. his food not included. and many times un- der some projecting rock he must seek a bed and pass the night
 Once dried the wild hay ls carefully ratherrd into a cloth or net and car ried down to the first little plain where it can be made into a stack, which Is weighted down with large stones Co prevent It's being blown away.
 Tn the winter. when everything is covered with snow. the mower climbs again the mountain. carrying a little wooden sledge on his shoulders. He loads lt with hay. seats himself in front and shoots down with the swift ness of an arrow. Thus tbe hay crop of the Alps is brought in.-New York Sun.

AMBASSADOR WILSON'S REPLY
Diplomat Strenuously Denies That
Americans In Mexico Seek Pro-
lection From the British.

Mexico City-Ambassador Wilson
answered criticisms of his conduct of
the American legation here He re-
cites that attention has been called
to the statement that many Ameri-
cans have enrolled their names with
the British legation, expecting to OBJ
tain a measure of protection which
they could not obtain from the en-
bassy."
This report" says Mr.. Wilson,
(which is undoubtedly malicious, but
calculated to increase the alarm of the
friends and relatives of Americans in
Mexico believe it my duty to de-
nounce as wholly untrue and mislead-
ing.
Il feel safe in saying that there is
not an American in Mexico whose
opinions are worthy of consideration
who entertains the opinion that Amer
lean lives and property are not receiv-
ing from the embassy that full meas
ure of protection which it is possible for
a diplomatic establishment to afford
"The Mexican government and the
American government are well advised
of the diligent, persistent and usually
successful efforts of this embassy to
meet IT,, responsibilities in the grave
condition of affairs which exists here.
Criticisms perhaps might be made Of
too much zeal and insistence in the
embassy's action.
mot a single American citizen has
enrolled himself under the protection
of the British legation. On the con-
trary, aid in the matter of arms has
been asked for the British colony.
"The American consuls in Mexico,
cooperating with the government at
Washington and this embassy, are do
ing faithful and efficient work in pro-
tecting American interests, and | do
not hesitate to say that there is great
er respect for Americans and Ameri-
can interests in Mexico today than for
any other nation or their interests"

ELECTRICITY AS CURATIVE.

Electricity was formerly the mystic
remedy of the quack, but since cleo
trical apparatus has become so essen
tial for X-ray work, more serious at
tention has been given by regular
physicians to the physiological effects
of this powerful agent Among the
notable results has been an electrical
method of arresting the degeneration
OF the arteries so common in prema-
tUre old age. A new announcement Is
that of DR.. Labordie, French medical
man, who gives details of method
of treating sciatica by tonization with
sodium hyposulphite, and shows what
appears to be an effective cure for
painful disease. The effects are at
tributed in this treatment to sulphur
oxide from electrolytic decomposition
instead of the direct action OF the
electric current itself. A thick layer
of absorbent tissue saturated with a 5
per cent solution of the sodium hypo-
sulphite was covered over a piece OF
tin as the negative electrode, which
was placed on the rear of the thigh
over the sciatic nerve. The positive
pole, wet with water, was put in con-
tact with the calf Of the leg. The pa
tient had been unable to use his legs
for ten months, but after ten sittinSs
of forty minutes he could walk mile
and recovery seems to have been COM
plete.

125,0OO AMERICANS GO
TO CANADA IN 1911.
THE YEAR 1912 WILL SHOW A
GREAT INCREASE.

In report of the House COMMITTEES
(Washington) appears the following:
Canada offers a three-year home
stead upon good land, easily reclaimed
and cultivated, with six months Leave
Of absence each year and most lenient
regulations"
All OF which is true and it is now
the part of the careful reader to con-
slider the opportunities that exist in
Western Canada which, in addition to
the above, are attractive features.
The evidence of these is found in the
letters contributed by some of the
settlers. For instance: A former Min.
nesotan, writing from Warner, South
ern Alberta, speaks Of that district,
but what he says, applies generally to
all of Southern Alberta. He says:
Il have seen six crops, four of them
were first class, one of them very
good crop, and the other poor crop.
Government statistics for the last tif-
teen years show that this country has
averaged about fifteen or sixteen
inches of moisture. In 1910 there was
only seven inches, and in 1911 twenty
two inches. The 1909 crop was about
as good as l have seen in this coun-
try and we had about twelve inches of
moisture, so that am thoroughly con-
vinced that with normal conditions,
that is, from twelve to fifteen inches
of moisture, and with the natural in
crease of population and immigration,
that Southern Alberta will be one of
the very best mixed farming districts
in the world. We have good soil, good
water, and good climate, and alto
gether just as desirable a country to
live in as Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, or
Wisconsin"
Hundreds of letters are on file from
former American settlers, which give
good reasons why the Western Cam
ada lands are being settled so rapidly.
Full particulars can be had of any Gao
madam Government Agent, who will
furnish literature and give low rate
certificates. Excursions are being run
daily.

BROKER rs LUCKY.
Lichstern Will Clean Up Million
in Wheat.

Chicago, April 15.-After years
bitter fighting, while awaiting favor
able developments in the wheat mar
ket, Adolph J. Lichstern now bids
fair to reap a million dollars in prof
it's from his manipulation of May
wheat. 4
About a year ago Mr.. Lichstern
was reported as having approximately
100000 bushels of May wheat. A
week ago he is supposed to have had
nearly 100000 bushels. His hold
ings meantime have varied between
10000, 900 and 100000 bushels. On
this wheat he has been paying carry
ing charges that will approximate ST.
500 a day and was in the hole $4,000
900. Mr. Lichstern las year was fore
ing the fighting and giving no quarter.
This year he has been on the de-
fensive and has been forced to buy
continuously to keep the market at
a figure equal to that at which he first
contracted for his May wheat.
At a time when it appeared as if
nothing except the enlistment of most
unusual influences would help Mr..
Lichstern, there came the reports Of
damage to the soft winter wheat in
the Ohio valley, aud prices started
aloft.
The advantage was grasped quick
ly as it was offered and Mr.. Lich-
stern began unloading the wheat he
has been carrying through two sea-
sons, and which it looked as though
he would have to carry for still an
other, for within sixty days the next
crop of May wheat will be coming in.
