SPEAKS UP FOR CANADA
And No Misunderstanding His
Land He Made $3.50
Per Acre.

So many Americans now have per-
sonal knowledge of Canada that false
reports concerning this country are
being continually corrected by Amer
leans themselves who know the facts,
and who are too fair-minded to let a
false statement go unchallenged A
case In point arises out of statement
supposed to be made by resident of
Alberta, and published recently in the
Spokesman-Review, of Spokane. in
which the condition of settlers in this
country was painted in a very bad
way indeed. The writer Of this at
tack on Canada refused to let his
name be known, SO 1t can be taken
for what 1t is worth, but Mr.. S. l..
Wallace, of N 4723 Crestline, Spokane,
who lived for some years in Western
Canada, came to the defense Of the
country in the following letter which
was published in the Spokesman-Re-
view Of February II, 1876
ITO the Editor of the Spokesman-Re-
view:
In Sundays Spokesman-Review was
q letter from man in Alberta to the
chamber of commerce, asking that
something be done to keep Americans
from going to Canada, and saying that
that government was run by the rail-
roads, banks and manufacturers; that
once man got there he never could
get away. Had this man published
that letter over his own signature
there is no doubt but he could get out
of Canada.
No country will do as much to help
man to get on his feet, If he tries to
help himself, as Canada. l know Of
the government helping people to pro-
visions, feed, seed grain and fuel, and
charging only cost of delivery to the
nearest town and 6 per cent. What
more could man ask?
lived five years in Southern Sass
katchewan and earned patent to $50
acres of as good land as l ever saw.
have raised over so bushels of oats
on sod, 40 bushels of wheat, and 20
OF fax to the acre. Until I lost my
health never was better satisfied any
where. had my land rented this last
year for one-third. It brought me al
most $3.50 per acre. or $1.14S.s1 for
1876 acres.
This man says he loves the land his
fathers died for. So do I, and love
the land that gave me my home.

Look and Feel
Clean, Sweet and
Fresh Every Day
Drink glass Of real hot water
before breakfast to wash
out poisons.

Life is not merely to live, but to
live well, eat well, digest well, work
well, sleep well. look well. What q
glorious condition to attain, and yet
how very easy it is il one will only
adopt the morning inside bath.
Folks who are accustomed to feel
dull and heavy when they arise. split
ting headache, stuffy from cold. foul
tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach.
can, instead, feel as fresh as daisy
by opening the sluices of the system
each morning and flushing out the
whole of the internal poisonous stag
nant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
well, should. each morning, before
breakfast, drink a glass of real hot
water with teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it to wash from the
stomach, liver. kidneys and bowels the
previous days indigestible waste, sour
bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans
ing, sweetening and purifying the en-
tire alimentary tract before putting
more food into the stomach. The ac-
ton Of hot water and limestone phos-
phate on an empty stomach is wonder
fully invigorating. 1t cleans out all the
sour lamentations, gases, waste and
acidity and gives one splendid ap-
petite for breakfast. While you are
enjoying your breakfast the water and
phosphate is quietly extracting large
volume of water from the blood and
getting ready for a thorough flushing
Of all the inside organs.
The millions of people who are both
cred with constipation, bilious spells,
stomach trouble, rheumatism; others
who have sallow skins, blood disor-
ders and sickly compilations are urged
to get quarter pound of limestone
phosphate from any store that handles
drugs which will cost very little. but
is sufficient to make anyone a pro-
nounced crank on the subject of In
ternal sanitation.-Adv.

Letting Our Light Shine.

Slowly yet impressively, the attitude Of
Americans in relation TO the world war is com
ing to be understood by themselves, and in time
it. will be appreciated by those whose interest
just now leads them to hsrshly criticize us,
We have been told we are making bad friends
abroad. and that Americans coming to be
generally hated. This is easily explained as
arising from the fact that we have so far prop
ery declined to become involved on either side
OF the controversy. but have resolutely held
aloof from any action that might reasonably be
construed as showing favor to one the other
of the combatants. Yet our participation in
the war has been notable and of incalculsble
value to all the countries whose normal activi-
ties have been suspended by the conflict.
For fifteen Months we have been feeding the
destitute behind and between the battle lines.
Governments OF Europe are too intent on de-
struction to heed the suffering OF the helpless,
and to these Americans have come with food
and clothing and other aid, that their lot may
be made the less precarious and their misery in
this degree lessened. Along the battle line
American doctors and nurses, volunteers sup
ported by American funds, have ministered to
the human wreckage Of war. Science and skill
and sympathy have done all that can be done
TO ameliorate the desolation and restitution the
older governments abandoned to the care OF
Providence that they might press on to further
devastating effort.
Along with this philanthropic work has gone
something OF the spirit that has prompted It,
Beneficiaries Of such generosity do not soon
forget It, and while the innocent victims OF the
terrible war may not waste time in analysis OF
the altruistic impulse that has brought them
aid from the land beyond their dreams they
will call down present blessing those who
have provided for them, and cherish the mem
DRY of that help always. We may be making
conquests of new commercial greatness. may be
extending the sphere Of influence Of our cul-
tural life and may be advancing in every
attribute OF human good. That remains to be
seen. What is certain is that we have con-
quered a wonderful kingdom Of humble hearts
through the light Of human sympathy we have
spread in darkened Europe.
