Places of the Earth.

Count Bertrand de Lessons. son of
sne Famous Frenchman of Suez canal
lame mas constructed an air-propelled
machine which is capable of attaining
q speed of from fifteen to sixty miles
an nour over the snow, according to
the condition of the frozen roads. The
snoe-shaped chassis is attached to
broad, fiat metal runners, and vibra-
tlon is reduced to a minimum by the
ADDITION of strong springs The pro-
pelier behind the pilot is well guard
cd by metal screen as a protection
against any one approaching it close
~. When snow falls wheels are placed
on the projecting pins, which lift the
SKI from the ground, and the car will
then attain speed of nearly one hun
dred miles an hour. Some such ma
chine as this is to be taken into the
antarctic regions by Shackleton with
his forthcoming expedition. Abroad
this form of amusement is called aero
skiing.

ready made Winnipeg one of the great
est primary wheat markets OF the
world. In 1904 they raised 5S,0O0,OOO
bushels of wheat. Five years later
they produced 150,000,000 bushels. In
1913 the crop Appropriated 100000
00e bushels. At the present rate OF
progress Canada must soon pass
France and India, and stand third In
the line of wheat producers. Ulti-
mately it will dispute with Russia and
the United States for the first position
Wheat has been the pioneer or our
development Undoubtedly it will
prove the same with Canada. In the
last calendar year our trade with Can
ada amounted to 497 million dollars.
Only with two countries-the United
Kingdom and Germany-is our trade
greater. No vivid imagination Is
needed to see what the future devel-
opment of Canada means to the
people of the United States.
The influx of American settlers to
the Canadian prairies Is nov in full
swing. Within the past few days
over 80 of those arrived at Bassano
carrying with them effects and capital
to the value of 100000. FIFTY settlers
from Oregon arrived in Alberta few

from the state of Colorado arrived at

Queen Mary is a poor conversation

to her it is said she will begin to talk
with remarkable felicity. setting the
other at ease and delighting him.
Then. all of a sudden, she suddenly
ceases, an acute silence supervenes
and the other does not know whether
to break the pause or slip away. The
fact is the queen talks we'll by dint of
concentration; this does not always
