WIVES FOR SASKATCHEWAN.
Canadian District Where Women Are
Only Blessing Not Found.

There comes from, saskatchewan,
over in Canada, a call for wives. Wo-
men are scarce over there, and what
there are are all spoken for. 1t Is
great region Of bountiful land, rich
in soil. water and pure air, but what
do these amount to without women!
in the town OF Viceroy there are only
three young manageable women, and
they are all engaged. SO dearth Is the
town of female glory that the young
men have formed a matrimonial club
and are trying to awaken sympathy for
their sad lot among the people OF the
east, where they have women to burn.
We talk much about wealth distribu-
ton but social distribution is the main
thing. There is plenty Of work on the
farms, and there are plenty of hus-
bands at. Saskatchewan. All that is
necessary is to pull up stakes and hike
away, where work is waiting and young
men are pleading. Think Of it-a girl
now getting 81 a week in a store might
in Ave years be the queen OF Sas-
katchewan? It IS worth trying.-Ohio
