Mirapolis awoke to a full sense of
its opportunities on the morning fol-
lowing the departure of its distin-
guished guests. BY ten o'clock it was
the talk Of the Hobbies, the club, and
the exchanges that the reclamation
service was already abandoning the
work or the great dam. One-half of
the workmen were to be discharged at
| once, and doubtless the other half
would follow as soon as the orders
could come from Washington
Appealed to by mob of anxious in
quirers, Brouillard did not deny the
fact of the discharges, and thereupon
the city went mad in Juror of specu-
lative excitement in comparison with
which the orgy of the gold discov-
erers paled into insignifcance. Curb
exchanges sprang into being in the
Metropole lobby. in thu court of the
Niquoia building, and at dozen street
corners on the avenue. Word went to
the placers, and by noon the miners
had left their sluice-boxes and were
pouring into town to buy options al
prices that would have staggered the
widest plunger otherwhere, or at any
other time.
Brouillard closed his desk at one
o'clock and went to fight his way
through the street pandemonium to
Bongras'. At table in the rear room
he found David Massingale, his long
white beard tucked into the closely
buttoned miners coat to be out of the
way of the flying knife and fork, while
he gave a lifelike imitation of a mar
begrudging every second of time
wasted in stopping the hunger gap.
Rrouillard took the opposite chaii
and was grimly amused at the length
of time that elapsed before Massingale
realized his presence.

Parana, Brazil, Real Estate Prospectus

From the World Outlook.
In the city, C%urityba, badly perceived
is the wan of good water, paved
streets and Of culverts, by which some
times appear typhus fevers which,
however, fortunately never Jake larger
dimensions. In the last five years the
town rose extraordinary; it is illum-
mated by electric light, got a tram
railway which cars brings the city in
connection with the external suburbs,
and it got also a public garden through
which flows several times the rivulet
Belem.
The River Parana, is the most wa
terry in the state, and one Of the most
extended in the world. 1t is navi-
gable until to this state for ships Of
great profoundness; it is also suf-
ficiently fishful.
Everybody who passes through this
state gets in ectasy at the contempla-
ton Of it's green and peopled plains,
in their u~ndulation, of its dense woods
Of pine trees, Of it's abundant forest Of
wood and precious plants. and finally.
its riches in the mineral and animal
regions. The vegetable reign is ex-
cessively represented in %resinous, oily
and gummous plants, and the animal
reign is richly represented by all kinds
Of ~quadrupeds, birds, insects, snakes,
reptiles and fishes.
We can affirm of Parana that it steps
forward in such a remarkable way that
it can be calculated for the most i'm
portant state of this republic.

CHARACTER FROM THE EYE
Those Who viii Take the Trouble to
Observe May Tell Much About
Their Associates.

Beware Of the shifting, faltering
eyes that always look away from you.
Small eyes usually mean an alert
mind.
If they look straight at you, steady
and bright, like a squirrels, you may
expect the right sort of c~leverness, a
quick tongue and a gift for repartee.
But if the small eyes are more dim
and do not look straight into yours,
you may look for the wrong kind of
cleverness, for little dishonesties and
eq~uivocations, and for a business
sharpness that is willing to sacrifice
too much for a little money.
Large, tranquil" "cowlike'' eyes, on
the ether hand, are less responsive
than the alert, bright little beady eyes;
but, one stir them to their depths, aud
they will look infinitely more intense
and meaningful than the more i'm
pulsive eyes.
Round, protruding yes show an am,
bilious nature and a love of action.
The longer eyes show more the TEN.
permanent of the dreamer.
The most beautiful eyes in the world
are very clear Chat indicates good
healthy, and are set widely apart and
rather deep. That width of setting al
ways gives a certain expression OF
sweet spirituality.

MORE THAN EVER

Many former coffee drinkers who
have mental work to perform day at

and greater endurance by using Pos

years, and finally had what the doctor

my heart action was greatly improved

HIGH PRICES
GOOD CROPS
And Good Demand for All Farm
Products.

1t is no new experience for settlers
located in a fertile country such as
Western Canada, where lands may be
bought at very reasonable prices. to
harvest aacrop that in one a paws
the entire cost Of their farm. Undoubt-
eddy this was the experience of many
farmers during 1915, but one instance
may be quoted. A settler who came
to Canada from the United States
some years ago decided to add to his
holdings by buying an adjoining
ter section e a his home at Warner,
at $4,000 an acre, with terms spread
over a period Of years. He got the
land into a good state of cultivation
and last spring put the whole quarter
section in wheat. When the crop was
threshed he found that it only took
half the wheat on the farm to pay the
whole purchase price of it; in short
a single years crop paid the cost Of
the land, paid all the expenses of OF
Grafton and left him a handsome sur
plus as profit. This settler had some
adjoining land, and his whole wheat
crop for the season amounted to
over $1,000 bushels. He is now plan.
ming to obtain some sheep and invest
his profits in live stock which will as
sure him a good living irrespective o..
what the season may happen to be.
Canada's financial position is ex-
cellent. All speculation has been elm
mated, and trading is done on a cash
basis, with restricted credit.
Detailed figures Of Canada's trade
for twelve months ending October 81
show how the war is forcing Canadian
trade into new channels. One of the
most extraordinary changes is in COM
merce with the United States. A
couple of years ago Canada imported
from the United States two or three
hundred million dollars worth of
goods more than she exported. The
balance of trade was all with the
United States. The balance is rapid
ly disappearing, and the. present out
look is that by the end of this year
Canada will have exported to the
United States more than she has i'm!
ported.
The figures for the past four years
are Illuminating. They are as fol-
lows:
Exports. Imports.
1912 ....... sl45,7 21, $50 SAP, 657, O22
1913 ........ 179, 05O, 796 442,341, $40
1914 ........ ~213,493,4O6 421, 074, 52S
1915 ........ 3~14,11S,774 346,569, 1924
Four years ago, in 1912, the balance
Of trade in favor of the United
States was no less than two hundred
and s~ixty-seven millions, and this
year, the balance is reduced to only
thirty-two millions. The figures are
extraordinary and reflect the changed
and new conditions in Canada. 1t
looks as il for the first time in nearly
half a century this year Canada will
sell more to the United States than
she will buy from the Americans

But he only squared his shoulders
and crouched behind the two, and
followed them toward that CLEAN of
daylight that became slowly strong

louder, more insistently.
They reached the entrance to the

and broken arms lay heaped in piles.
Edwardes raised himself and stared
about him. What had happened? Had
the trench been taken or were the
enemy still in possession?
He saw his own doubts on the
Saxon's face. The two looked at
each other silently. The girl was

in their pathetic helplessness, that
