CONCERNING Umbrellas.

Because of the tremendous vogue
Of velvets and the number of costumes
in that material that are being made
up, the velvet-encased umbrella has
come into being. Made on a slender
but substantial frame, which folds
closely, and covered when closed and
encased appears like walking stick
Of velvet from ferrule to top. A solid
silver monogram plate caps the han
die, which, ten inches down it's length,
is ornamented with a double ring of
silver.
Decided colors are now the smart
thing in silk umbrellas. All the fash
ionable shades of purple, blue, mauve
and the new reds are in demand for
spreads, which are mounted upon
frames that press tightly about slen-
der stick and give the convenience the
appearance of a silken cane. The
fashionable fad is to procure a unique
handle for the umbrella that is carried
with the tailored walking suits, and
while some Of the effects are artistic,
others are actually bizarre. Among
the latter are the cat, parrot and
monkey heads in natural colors and
with jewels for eyes. In the former
class are all manner of beautifully
carved handles of rare woods and
ivory, and when money is not an OBJ
ject, of jade, amber, rock crystal or
solid silver and gold.

FATTENED FOR THE TABLE
In Ireland Goldfish Are Kept Con
fined Until They Are in the Best
of Condition.

At Logan, near the Null of Gallo
way, there is most interesting tidal
fish pond. A rent in the cliffs facing
the Irish channel admits the salt wa
ter through narrow fissure, protected
by grating, into circular rock basin
some 80 feet in diameter and 20 feet
deep.
The cliffs rise high around Stone
steps descend on one side to ledge
leveled into footpath at the waters
edge. No sooner does the visitors
football resound on the stairs than
the green water, hitherto motionless
and apparently lifeless, becomes peo-
pied with large brown fish arising
from the depths, sliding and dashing
about in a state of great excitement.
These are cod, which, caught on lines
in the sea, have been transferred to
this pond to be fattened for the table.
They are fed daily by the keeper, and
experience has taught them to connect
the sound of footsteps with their meal
time.
Formerly a clapper used to be rung
10 summon them, but this was no more
than trick of the stage The foot
fall on the stone Is quite enough to
awaken them to activity. Most of the
cod, being deep-water fish, become
totally blind in captivity from excess
of light; but they become SO tame and
accustomed to their keeper as not only
to- feed out of his hand, but some of
them allow themselves to be lifted out
Of the water. One may witness the
strange sight of a huge cod, more than
four feet long, dangled on the knee
like a baby, his mouth stuffed with
mussels and limpets, after which he is
returned to the water with a mighty
splash. On the table these fish, thus
tended and fed, prove much better
than fish brought straight from the
open sea.

PREPARING FOR
new SETTLERS
EXTENDING THE AGRICULTURAL
AREA IN WESTERN CANADA.

For sometime past the Canaolan
government has had surveyors d.
work plating new areas for the ac-
commodation of the largely lncreas-
ing number of settlers coming IN 10
occupy the agricultural districts OF
the three prairie provinces. Ihere
were those connected with the work
OF securing settlers for western can
ada who last spring prophesied that
there would be as many as lfo,uoo
new settlers from the United States
to Canada during the present year,
and there were those who doubted
that the previous years figures OF
$4,000 could be increased. Recent
computation made by the officials OF
the immigration branch at Ottawa
show that the largest estimates MADE
by officials will be beaten and that
the 100000 mark from the United
States will be reached. AS great an
increase will be shown in the figures
of those who will reach Canada from
other countries this year. The re-
suits of the years work in Canadian
immigration will give upward of
total of 100000 souls.
But this is not to be wondered at
when it is realized what Is offering in
the three prairie provinces and also
in the coast province of British Co.
lunlbia, which is also bidding strong
ly and successfully, too, for certain
class of settler, the settler who
wishes to go into mixed farming or
fruit raising. When the central por-
ton of this province is opened up by
the, railway now being constructed
there will be large areas Of splendid
land available for the settler.
Reference has frequently been made
of late by those interested in develop
ing the American west to the large
numbers who are going to Canada,
high officials in some of the railways
being amongst the number to give
voice to the fact The more these
facts become known the more will
people seek the reasons and these
are best given when one reads what
prominent people say Of it. What the
farmer thinks of it and what his
friends say Of it. James A. Flaherty.

Because Miss Rupp of Philadelphia
met with discourteous treatment at
some Of the homes at which she called
as a nurse, the city council passed an
ordinance giving her all the powers OF

Before she was given authority to
carry O. mace. and pistol and make
