New Astronomical Belief

A new astronomical belief is that
there are not only dark stars in space
but dark nebulae. The dark stars are
invisible, revealing themselves only
by their effect on the motion or light

ground of space. Prof E. E. Barnard
notes that many striking dark patches
of sky, hitherto supposed to be simply
starless regions, may be really dark
nebulae. The case of Kinds nebula
in Taurus, which is now feebly visible
after completely fading away from a
state of conspicuous brilliancy, shows
that a nebula may lose its light and
perhaps may have never had any light.

DA|RYING IN
WESTERN CANADA
Accompanying industries Also
Prove HighIy Profitable.

The cheese industry throughout
western Canada today is in highly
fourishing condition and is bound In
d very short time to become much
more important. The war has created
great demand for that article. and
it's 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 its value This means that
after the war there will be 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 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 it is bound to
become one of the finest cheese coun-
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

such as exist on the long slopes from
the Rockies eastward

realized, make this industry very prof

building the bungalow far enough

The low effect of the bungalow is
retained in a way that is used consid-

is not carried up to the level of the

HOW BALFoUR MISSED THE
MAIDEN.

A LEXANDER BALFOUR was born
IN Mt the seat of his father, Lord Bur-
leigh, near Kinross, in the year 1857,
and In all Scotland there was no infant
with fairer prospects. His father was
great man, there were great people
among his uncles and cousins and
funts. Among his distinguished and
powerful relatives were the duke of
Argyle and the earl of Stair. So AL
exander, as he grew up, Draw gall
liant, dreamed dreams of glory.
In the fullness of time he went to
the University of st. Andrew, where
he distinguished himself for intelli-
gence and zeal. His teachers admired
him so much they predicted great
things for him, and said he would
have been destined to greatness, even
had be been born plebeian. Then
one day the university shut down for
Il brief season, and Aleck went home
for a vacation. And, having reached
mis- ancestral hall, the first thing he
did was to fall In love with Anne Rob-
ertson, the governess of his little sis

pent- She tried to discourage Alexis
infatuation. She handed him the ice
fongs in every way she could, but the
young man was determined to marry
her.
Then his father, old Lord Burleith,
got wise to what was going on AID
put In his oar. He discharged Miss
Robertson and told his son to pack
up his traps and take tour abroad,
staying away until summoned home.
This was standard antidote for love-
sickness in those days. Foreign travel
was a cure for many ills which now
are reached by patent medicines. Al
'exander went away, imagining him
self broken-hearted. But he wrote a
