FARMERS WHO SUCCEED
IN WESTERN CANADA
Those Who Exercise Thrift, Prac.

Reasonable Methods Are
Sure to Prosper.

Those who are interested in deVel-
oping the agricultural resources Of
Western Canada in bringing to the
notice Of those whom they desire to
take part in this development present
only the facts. There has never been
given the impression that farming in
Western Canada could be carried on
without effort or labor, but 1t has been
successfully stated that better results
can be secured with less outlay Of
capital. either in money or labor, than
anywhere else on the continent. This
has been proven time and time again.
Hundreds OF cases could be cited
where men have taken up farms,
either homestead, or purchased from
railways or land companies, and with
little capital at the start have ac'
quired a competence, have established
good homes for themselves, and pro-
vided a sure future. They have com.

ings are comfortable, speak of the re-

About fifty miles west Of Wetaski-

With Characteristic responsiveness
and imagination Caroline caught the
idea that Mrs. Langtry had in mind.
When the gown was done It was a
rare success, and when the beautiful
actress wore It with the crimson
girdle, which constitutes full court
mourning, no one could deny that 1t
was outrageously striking. Yet any
one could tell at a glance that a
master hand had designed and exc
cuted the dress. Il was cossiped

In the course of a few years Caro-

with a very large salary. When this
work Of reorganization was accom-

Paris buyer for the same dry-goods

At present Caroline, with an estab-
lishment Of her own, is one Of the
most prominent dressmakers in the

His EuIonx.

known as the crossest, closest anC
most generally nonlikable citizen in the
whole state died.
Now 1t is customary, in the case Of
rural funerals, for those who attend
as they stand by the coffin, to murmur
some eulogy Of the dead. A number Of
farmers came in and said things which
didn't square at all with the old mans
life.
Finally an aged man. who had
known the deceased all his life, hob.
hled in and stood by the coffin. The
aged man was known as the most
truthful man in the county. Hence the
