A BOY INTERPRETER
A Young Massachusetts, swede In Can
ada Twenty Years Agc Wants
TO Return.

Twenty years ago, a blond-haired
young Swede. boy OF about 10 years
Of age. accompanied a party OF his
ellow-countrymen on the then long
trip to Western Canada as an inter-
prefer. The party he accompanied To-
Gated at Wetaskiwin. Alberta. now one
Of the most thriving and best settled
districts In Western Canada. For
three years he remained in the dis
trict- Homesickness took him back
to his home at Fitchburg. Mass, and
ne haE remained there for II years.
He has heard frequently from his
friends In the West. He has followed
their movements and watched their
progress. He has heard how the town
he helped to establish has risen from
shack to a growing. thriving. brisk
business center. with the surrounding
country peopled now by thousands
who are occupying the territory in
which he was one Of the first to help
plant the colony of twenty or twenty
five. In his letter to an official of the
Department of the Interior, he says:
when I was up in Canada. Calgary
was a small town and so was Edmon-
ton. but understand they have grown
wonderfully since"
The young man when he went last
learned a machine trade, he has pat
ents and inventions but he wants to
go to Canada again. And he likely
will, but when he does he will find a
greater change than he may expect.
Calgary and Edmonton are large
cities, showing marvellous and wonder
full growth. Where but one line Of
railway made a somewhat tortuous
and indefinite way across the plains
to its mountain pass. there are three
lines OF railway dividing the trade Of
hundreds of thousands of farmers,
carrying freight to the hundreds
of towns and cities crossing and
criss-crossing the prairies In all
directions, reaching out into new
settlements. and preceding districts to
be newly opened for incoming settlers.
He will not be able to secure home
stead unless at a considerable distance
from the town, the three dollar an
acre land is selling at from SIS to s35
an acre. He will find now what was
but theory then. that this land that
was then SO an acre Is worth the $50
or $35 that may be asked for 1t, and a
good deal more. But he will find that
he can secure homestead Just as
good as any that were taken In his
day. and today worth $35 an acre, but
at some distance from a line of rail-
way, yet with a certainty Of railway
in the near future. and he will find too
that he can still get land at SIS to $18
an acre that will in year or two be
worth $50 or s35 an acre. Mr.. Nose
son is talking to his countrymen about

II woman's beauty depended upon

deeper than that. II lies In health.
In the majority OF cases the basis OF
health and the cause Of sickness. can
be traced to the action OF the bowels.
The headaches. the lassitude, the
sallow skin and the lusterless eyes are
usually due to constipation. So many
things that women do habitually con-
duce to this trouble. They do not
eat carefully, they eat indigestible
foods because the foods are served
daintily and they do not exercise
enough. But whatever the particular
cause may be 1t is important that the
condition should be corrected.
An ideal remedy for women. and one
especially suited to their delicate re-
quirements, is DR.. Caldwells Syrup

dorse highly. Mrs. Jennie Snedeker,

a disinterested work, however, for the
Berlin museums now possess many OF

At an early period the Arabs con

and, to this end, to certain extent
remodeled them. Their work, how
