STORIES THAT ARE POPULAR
English seria! Writers Say One Glass
Prefers TO Read the Chronicles
of Another.

Do persons Of limited means like
reading stories about the rich better
than those about persons no better off
than themselves? The question is
raised by correspondent who writes
from Winchelsea.
Many thousands of your readers
would be glad he says, IF you could
bring out serial about ordinary mid
die class people by way Of change
from the eternal scenes among aristo-
Gratis with no interest in life except
sport and Irritation. After all, such
persons must be rare, even among
your own readers, and it would be de-
lightful to read about life in our own
class. And let the characters live in
some other town than London, say
Leicester, or Birmingham, and dine,
not lunch at noon
Some wisely known serial writer's
were asked their opinions on the mat.
ter. with the following result:
Mrs. Yorke Miller: Perhaps the
poor serial writer's do like best to
write about people with plenty of
money, letting their mird dwell upon
the things they desire and have not
got. But I am inclined to think that
most readers who dine in the middle
of the day are like that, and most en-
10Y reading about people with motor
cars who dine at smart restaurants.
Heath Hosken: Really popular
serials give both sides of life. Readers
are extremely critical of descriptions
of their own manner of life, and the
more realistic it is the more likely they
are to resent it"
Miss L. Mitchell, secretary of the
Writer'S club: Il think that, on the
whole, people enjoy most reading
about class of life different from any
they lave ever known
The question is: Are the serial wri-
tars mistaken in thinking that people
do prefer to read about the rich AND
nrosperous ?-London Mirror.

ca,Io-Roman villa unearthed.

GaIlo-Roman villa has been un-
earthed in Paris in connection with
the works for the underground rail-
way near The Luxembourg. Traces OF
Roman remains are being discovered
in Paris more numerously every year,
and the remains of the villa just dis

lime that this villa is spoken OF, as
narts of the walls and atrium were
uncovered years ago, when the works
were in progress for the Luxembourg

been laid bare, and it is found to have
consisted of twenty rooms, with
large antr;um and piscina. It faced

THE CLIMATE OF
WESTERN CANADA. "
AN IMPORTANT FACTOR IN CAM
ADA'S IMMIGRATION.

A letter dated February 2, 1913, pub
Nshed in a Peoples Voice" column in
a Swedish paper, while dealing with
other conditions in Canada, such as
grain yield, social conditions, etc.,
says: 1--WE have had fine weather I'M
til New Years, when some snow fell
and it was cold for few days. but
during the past few days we have
lovely weather again" The writer.
who lives near Davidson, Sask., says
they got from so to 35 bushels of wheat
per acre, so bushels of oats and about
20 bushels Of fax. All homesteads are
taken in the vicinity, but wild land
can be bought at reasonable figures.
Word from Alberta gives the infor-
nation that up to the 22nd of February
there were eighty-four and a quarter
hours of bright sunshine, but that did
not come up to the corresponding
month Of 1912, when the meteorolog-
zeal department registered 40 hours
for the 20 days.
February was exceptionally fine all
through, but 1912 went one better, and
was a glorious month. However, taxi
ing the weather generally throughout
the northern hemisphere, February has
been marked by serious and severe
disturbances resulting in heavy storms,
bad weather and low temperatures in
many other parts.
The coolest temperature this week
occurred on Tuesday morning when
the thermometer registered 2S:5 below,
and the coolest Wednesday was IL be-
low. During the last fortnight of
February and 81 hours of bright sum
shine spread its glorious rays over
Edmonton, and this out of a possible
total Of about ten hours is something
to talk about. ADVERTISEMENT.
