1000 SETTLERS A DAY
WESTERN CANADA MAKING RE.
MARKABLE PROGRESS.

Settlers from the United Kingdom
and other countries OF Europe landed
In Winnipeg last week at the rate Of
one thousand a day. The predicted
boom in the populating Of the prairie
provinces this spring has material
lied, as 1t did last year, and today the
busiest city in America is probably
the Manitoba metropolis.
The sturdy nations OF Europe are
all contributing to the rapid growth
of Canada West. Two Of the largest
contingents reaching Winnipeg last
week were from Germany and Scan
dinavia.
The British Isles are sending out
larger contingents than ever before.
The old land newspapers are filed
with accounts Of send-offs and faro
wells being given to popular towns
folk on the eve Of departure for Can
ada.
Numerous editorials record the SEN
timents, bordering on despair, Of the
Britons who see their towns and vii
lagos desolated by the desertion Of
favorite sons and daughters. We can
sympathize with those left behind
while felicitating the young people
who have their own way to make in
the world, on their new opportunities
in the country of mammoth crops.
Scotland lost 5000 of her best

month. No wonder the young, aspir-
ing Scots take so quickly to Canada.
They have been reading Of the tri-
umphs and wonder working of Scot
tish pioneers in the Dominion ever
since they were "bairns." A great
part of Canada's success was wrought
by Canadians from Caledonia, and the
young Caledonians of today are eager
to demonstrate that they can do as
| we'll out west as their forebears.
In addition to those from the old
countries, the United States still
keeps up In strenuous manner, and
is sending its thousands into that new
country Of the north. They take up
the free homesteads Of 100 acres on
which they live for six months OF
each year for three years, and then
get deed or patent for farm that
is worth anywhere from SIS to SIC
per acre, or, they may purchase lands
at from SIS to $18 per acre that will
yield with proper care in cultivation
excellent returns for the time, work
and money expended d.-Advertisement

RASH SPREAD TO ARMS

759 Roach Ave-, Indianapolis, Ind
"At first noticed small eruptions on
my face. The trouble began as rash.
1t looked like red pimples. In fow
days they spread to my arms and back.
They itched and burned so badly that
I scratched them and of course the re-
suit was blood and matter. The erup-
tions festered, broke, opened and dried
up, leaving the skin dry and scaly. I
spent many sleepless nights. my back,
arms and face burning and itching:
sleep was purely and simply out of
the question. The trouble also caused
Disagreement. My clothing irritated
the breaking out.
"By this time I had used several
well-known remedies without success.
The trouble continued. Then I began
to use the sample of Cuticura Soap
and Ointment. Within seven or eight
days I noticed gratifying results.

German Princes Wanderiahr.

The prince of Wales might possibly
enjoy his German trip still better If
he could view the country in the un-
conventional way followed by the
German crown prince and his broth
ers. Like all the Hohenzollerns, the
kaiser's sons were taught trades, and
their father also allowed them to taste
the delights of the "wanderiahr,"
which still forms part of the education
of most German artisans.
In the case Of the young princes
the rear was split up over several sue
cessive summer holidays, which they
spent tramping through Germany,
knacksack on back, and sleeping at
roadside inns. They travelled without
servant. accompanied only by their
military governor, Colonel Won Falken
heyn, and were scarcely ever recog
