Tho Quick Wit of Mansfield.
From the New York TELEGRAPH.

Iie NEW 1Ofh Telegraph.
Now that Arnold Daily is reviving
Beau Brummel," various anecdotes Of
the late Richard Mansfield, who cre-
ated the title role, are being revived.
w. j. Ferguson, who acted the valet in
the original production Inc who is now
one of the pirates in Treasure Island"
has remembered me-.
In the character of the valet it was
Ferguson's place to hand the Beau his
gloves, his stick, and finally his hat.
Upon the opening night he proffered
the hat to Mansfield, turning the wrong
way around. Had the Beau put on the
hat in the way it was handed to him
and strolled down Piccadilly or Bond
street, the faux pas might have created
a scandal. When Ferguson discovered
his error he turned pale under his
make up.
Mansfield was quick to grasp the sit
uation and, with one Of his most court
ly bows, gave the hat back to the valet,
so that he might turn it around, which
Ferguson did with pantomimic apology.
AS Mansfield put on the hat and
passed out h door, he whispered to
Ferguson: That's a good piece of bust
ness; keep it in"

A farmer of Monarch, Alberta,
claims the distinction Of being the first
N the province to sell a carload of
hogs at the high price Of eleven cents
a pound, live weight. The sale was
made a short time ago at Calgary, and
at that time was a record, although
prices have since gone al high as
S11.12k per hundredweight. With
such prices available for hogs the
farmer has a market for everything
his farm produces, as there is prac-
tically no farm product which cannot
be converted into good hog flesh. The
uncertainty Of results which attends
grain farming even under most favor
able conditions is removed when the
settler goes in for raising hogs, beef
and dairy products. With Western
Canada's cheap lands, heavy crops, and
climate free from diseases of stock.
the stock farmer is as sure Of success
as anyone can be.-Advertisement.

FRANCE TO KEEP HER
WAR ORPHANS, REPORT

Paris.-"France is not going to ex-
port any of its war orphans" said
Monsieur Alfred Croiset, head of the
faculty of letters of the Sorbonne, in
explaining the participation Of Ameri-
cans in the work Of the Orphanage of
the Armies, of which he is president.
Il know a statement was published re-
Gently to the effect that 100000 Ameri-
can families had offered to adopt or
phans Of the war. The number was a
little exaggerated, n word adoption
used In its general was mislead-
ing. Orphans of the war, SO far as is
possible, are to remain in their families,
especially when the mother is living.
wh=.e the are no Immediate rela-
tlVes to TAKE care OF them, they are to
be placed in, other French families and
ultimately will be cared for by the
state until their majority; none of them
are available for adoption under the
common ~acceptation 70 the term.
Most of the Americans who have ex-
pressed the desire TO participate in this
work understand this point quite Well;
In fact, in our correspondence the ma
jority of the letters from the United
States express the desire that the chill
dren which they agree to support
should remain in their families. The
supposition that there are 1901 0
American families wanting to take care
OF orphans arise no doubt from the
fact that we were asked by Americans
as to about how many war orphans
there were needing assistance, and we
put the number at $50, 200. This, of
course, does not comprise all of the
wal orphans. They were estimated re-
Gently In a debate in the senate by
Senator ~Jehouvrier at 100000, which.
OF course, included halt orphans, but a
great proportion of these will never
npcnmP tho nhilNtC nf ohio vito h1o r,N~lr
and the exact number may never be
precisely determined.
"Committees have been organized in
a great many American cities to re-
ce1ve propositions of families, not to
adopt orphans, but to support them in
OF two years, which is supposed will
go beyond the end of the war and carry
them to the time when the measures
taken by the government for the care
OF orphans become effective. All the
people in France connected with this
movement have been deeply touched by
the generous ardor Of Americans in his
work. We have received many thou
sands Of letters-the number is in
creas1ng every day-from families who.
want to enter into direct communica-.
ton with orphans and start CORE
them until such time as they need no;
further helo. :
THE plan Of the O%rphanage of the
Army is to bring these children up
without making them feel that they are
objects of charity. without withdraw
ing them from their usual environment
except When that environment is bad.
We support them in their homes with
contributions of money, clothing, and
books, pending the organization Of Off
cial means of providing for them. We
are aided largely in this work by pu-
pills of the public schools. There are
about 10000 different schools in France
and the children of each school con-
tribute their sous for the upport of
an orphan. Eventually, each one of
these schools will have a ward as its
charge"

WESTERN CANADA
Accompanying Industries Also
Prove Highly Profitable.

The cheese industry throughout
western Canada today is in a highly
f1ourishing condition and is bound in
a very short time to become much
more important. The war has created
a great demand for that article, and
Its use abroad has given it a lot of
useful advertising. The article known
as Canadian cheese is now sought not
only by the soldier in the trenches,
but by the ordinary civilian consumer,
who, having used it, is quick to ap-
preciate it's value. This means that
after the war there will be a demand
created for it that would not other
wise have been. Up to the present
the war needs have limited the local
supply, but with the increased effort
that is now being put forth it is hoped
that this will be met. AS a matter of
course the prices are high, and the
farmers who contribute to the cheese
factories are making money.
The cheese season is now fully open
and there is every prospect of an ex-
cellent year because the high price
which obtained last year will undoubt-
edly be maintained this season. West
ern Canada has all the natural re-
sources for the making of cheese. the
feed and the cool nights, two things
essential, and In time 1t is bound to
become n of the finest cheese
tries Of the continent.
The lower foothills of Alberta, used
only at the present time as ranges or
for no purpose, will in time produce
cheese in great quantities, and doubt
less will soon equal the famous up
lands Of Denmark.
The cool nights mean the better
keeping Of milk and cream and
cheese, and that is a great thing for
the industry, especially when COM
bined with possibilities of cattle feed
such az exist on the long slopes from
the Rockies eastward.
The hog market, which may be
classed as an adjunct of farming, is
an exceedingly good one, and the low
cost at which the feed can be pro-
duced, coupled with the high prices
realized, make this industry very prof
liable.
One of the first thoughts that occur
to the mind of the average prospective
| settler is the likelihood of suitable
markets. In this connection the fol-
lowing table will be Illuminating. It
is supplied by the p. Burns company,

initial cost of the land and the small
