p
as-you-please wild west days.
To study the Undesirable
something which seems to tinge
his whole. makeup is one thing.
To be able to initiate it correctly
IS quite another.
Edwin August, the star of the
Powers moving picture players,
has caught this subtle western
spirit perfectly, and reproduced
the native character in almost
faultless detail, although he is
New York actor whose sojourn
in the west may still be counted
by the months. Look at him in
his cowboy attire and Judge for
yourself.
This is the way he appears in
con the Burning Sands" a new
Powers western picture produc-
ed,in California. It is a two-reel
play which he wrote. He told me
it is to be the first of a series of
cowboy pictures in which he will
play the chief role.
This life is pictures, pictures,
pictures, morning, noon and
night, he said when I accidental
ly ran into him on the steps Of
the Hollywood studio of the
Universal Film company, near
Los Angeles. ''The life of a NOV /
ing picture actor is all work and
no glory, believe met
"Yes?" I answered with a ris-
ing infection, as I took a birds
eye view of his dapper appear
ance and noted the well-cut suit, |

ly, and then almost upset my
mental equilibrium by announc-
ing that cowboy parts were his
favorite.
But you came from New York,
Mr. August. And you have only
been out west a little while. And
81 always understood cowboy
parts, in which there is the real
western flavor, were played by
the genuine cowboy hired for that
purpose?"
WE'LL" drawled my friend,
Ticking a dust speck off his coat
sleeve, that's true in part. It's
a fact that many 'dyed-in-the-
wool cowboys are employed for
the western pictures. But when
a producer finds a real actor who
can get the spirit and look the
part, down to the smallest detail,
he is glad to have the actor and
the cowboy combined in one, you
see:"
August had spent days riding
and talking and living with the
cowboys. He got EN- down pat,
to the tiniest detail, even to the
deft rolling of a cigaret. And
that's real test.

BLAME PLACED ON PHYSICIANS
Growth of Drug Habit in United States
Alleged to Be Due to opiates
Ordered In Prescriptions.

That SO per cent. of all the cocaine
and morphine manufactured in this
country is used by persons who have
formed the drug habit through physi-
clans prescriptions is the startling
statement made by DR.. L. F. Kebler,
Chief of the Division of Drugs, Depart
ment of Agriculture. This statement,
and others, proving that physicians
and not patent" medicines are re-
sponsible for the appalling growth of
drug addiction in the United States
was made by DR.. Kebler in an address
at Washington, before the American
Society for the Study Of Alcohol and
Narcotics.
DR.. Kebler is quoted by Washington
papers as having declared that drug
using had increased 100 per cent. in
the last 40 years, and that American
medical men were not discriminating
enough in their use Of opiates. Their
overindulgence to their patients, he
said, is creating thousands Of drug
users every year.
ut is a very sad thing to say that
u physicians are doing the greatest
work in promoting the use of cocaine
and morphine" said the doctor. Estate
laws are not saving the public from
the grip of the drug habit, and the
American public is sinking tighter
and tighter into the black abyss o.
the morphine and cocaine fiend.
1.-THE worst of it is that the impor
tation of opium into the country Il
becoming larger and larger year by
year. l have heard it said on reliable
authority that SO per cent. of the co
caine and morphine manufactured IL
this country is used by persons who
have formed the habit through doc
tors prescriptions"
Almost simultaneously with DR.. Keb
ler's address, DR.. J. A. Patterson, a
Grand Rapids, Michigan, in a public
statement said that 10 out of every q
patients who come to an institution
with which he is connected for treat
ment for the drug habit owe theil
downfall to physicians prescriptions

THE BEST TREATMENT FOR
ITCHING SCALPS, DANDRUFF
AND FALLING HAIR

To allay itching and irritation Of the
scalp, prevent dry, thin and falling
hair, remove crusts, scales and dan
druff, and promote the growth and
beauty of the hair, the following spe-
cial treatment is most effective, agree
able and economical. On retiring,
comb the hair out straight all around,
then begin at the side and make a
parting, gently rubbing Cuticura ONT
ment into the parting with a bit OF
soft flannel held over the end of the
finger. Anoint additional partings
about half an inch apart until the
whole scalp has been treated, the pur-
pose being to get the Cuticura Oint-
ment on the scalp skin rather than on
the hair. 1t is well to place a light
covering over the hair to protect the
pillow from possible stain. The next
morning, shampoo with Cuticura Soap
and hot water. Shampoos alone may
be used as often as agreeable, but
once or twice a month is generally
sufficient for this special treatment
for women's hair.
Cuticura Soap and Ointment sold
throughout the world. Sample of each

Nothing ages anyone more quickly than
weak kidneys.
1t is not alone the aching back, the stiff,
painful joints, but the evil effect of bad,
poisoned blood on the nerves, the vital
organs and the digestion.
The condition of the kidneys makes good
health or ill-health.
The kidneys are the filters of the blood.
Active kidneys filter from the blood ey-
cry day over one ounce Of poisonous waste
and pass it off dissolved in the urine.
Ii the kidneys are weak or diseased, only
part of this hltering is done and the blood
is heavy with uric acid and other poison
|. Gus or waste matter.
Instead of being nourished by the
blood, the nerves and vital organs are ir-
ritated, and the circulation, digestion, ETC.,
are disturbed.
If your back aches constantly, if your
joints are stiff, lame and painful, suspect
the kidneys.
Kidney sufferers are likely to feel dull
heavy, restless at night, rheumatic, dizzy
at times, subject to headaches and an
noyed with sharp, piercing pains that
make work an agony and rest impossible
Doan's Kidney Pills are the best-recom
mended and most widely used remedy fol
weak or diseased kidneys. They act quick
ly; contain no poisonous nor habit-form
ing drugs and leave no bad after-affectl
of any kind-just make you feel better al
over.

Jonsmith's Method of Getting Key

His wife had been spending a week

The Turks is carried to a fine art. A
short time ago it was my privilege,

weeks in the harem Of the son-in-law
Of one of Turkeys greatest generals.
whose leg, shot of in the battle OF
Plevna, was buried in a cemetery side

Turkish. She was young, beautiful
and happy. Sixty slaves were always
ready to do her bidding-not slaves.
In our sense of the word, but more
ike adopted children.
The square, spacious house stood In
4 lovely garden, and was divided into
two portions, one-half 1.-THE haremflk)
occupied by women and the other
half (the salamlik) by men. The
sofas and chairs in the drawing-room
we're covered with red and yellow
silk, and here ladies and slaves, all
wearing loose garments like dressing
gowns, sat for hours chatting or play
Ing cards or backgammon, or listen
Ing to the tales of the miradjus, the
professional women story-tellers. They
have no regular hours for meals,
snacks Of food being brought to them
at all hours. They did not sit at table
In the dining-room, where the host en-
tertained his friends and where for
eign ladies were admitted.
Visits to a harem are looked upon
as an indefinite thing. Some of the
ladies staying in the house had ar
rived with a small bundle of clothes
for a few days and had stayed on
more than a year. On an embroider-
ed carpet In one corner of the room
a large tray on short legs held all
courses Of each meal placed there be

garments and swathed heads, handed

milk is also excellent for brood sows.
Without considerable exercise dur
ing pregnancy, sows cannot be made
to give satisfactory results. In sum
mer a good pasture furnishes ideal
conditions for sows, the green food
and the exercise keeping the sows in
the best possible condition. Try and
furnish as near these conditions as
possible in the winter. The greatest
difficulty will be encountered in CIV
ing the sows sufficient exercise. Where
only a few sows are kept, it is often
possible to give them the run Of a
barnlot, where they will take exercise
roofing among droppings, or working
among scattered straw or chaff to find
what little grain it may contain. If a
dry, well ventilated sleeping place is
provided, the conditions are about as
near ideal as can be obtained.
An abundance of good water should
be where the sows can go to it when
ever they desire. 1t is a further means
of inducing them to take exercise.

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

For sometime past the Canadian
government has had surveyors at
work plating new areas for the ac-
ccnmodation of the largely increas-
ing number Of settlers coming in to
occupy the agricultural districts of
the three prairie provinces. There
were those connected with the work
of securing settlers for western Can
ada who last spring prophesied that
there would be as many as $4,000
new settlers from the United States
to Canada during the present year,
and there were those who doubted
that the previous years figures of
1872, 900 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 a
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
lumbia, which is also bidding strong
ly and successfully, too, for a 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 viii
people seek the reasons and these
are best given when n reads wha'
prominent people say of it. What thu
