The Broken Heart.

81 suppose" said the pretty young
matron who was inclined TO fiirt when
the flirting was safe, you've broken
many wOman's heart?"
NO" replied the handsome cap
tain. II don't think l ever broke the
heart of more than one woman in my
life"
Then you did break the heart of
one! Tell me about it,"
1T was several year ago-before
the beginning of the war. l was
travelling in Europe, and rode in one
of the compartment cars they have
over there. A woman got in. We
were alone together. She was young
about your age-and pretty. l saw
at once that she was an American.
For hours we rode on, and no one
else entered our compartment"
"Yes?"
81 never said a word to her or gave
her a chance to say anything to me-"

ADDED BEAUTY TO GARDENS
World owes Debt to Frenchman Who
Improved on the Glory of the
Lilac Blossom.

One of Frances war gardeners Of
1S70-71 won Immortality by studying
his plants, instead of tending his gar
den merely as way to help out with
the food supply. Like most war gar
deners, he did not give his attention
exclusively to vegetables but planted a
few flowers, aud it was with these that
he had conspicuous success.
In 1871 Victor Lemoine began his
experiments in cross-fertilizing differ
ent species of lilac. He took up this
work to get his mind away from the
troubles Of his country, for a German
garrison was quartered in his native
town, Nancy, and the rest of France,
except the doomed provinces of Alsace-
Lorraine, was slowly buying back its
freedom from the same hated pres
ence. Lemoine's sight at that time was
very bad, so he planned and had his
wife execute.
That was the origin Of the wondrOuS
group of shrubs known today through
out the civilized world as French
lilacs,' with their great trusses of
beauteOus bloom. 1t is LemOine's best
known work, though not his only one.
He recreated the mock orange, the
deutzia, the weigelia, the delphinium
and q score of other perennials and
shrubs.

Hot Weather Hits us
Hardest in Stomach

Keep a closewatch on yourstom-
ach this summer. We need all our
fighting strength. War work
change of diet-will make US all
easier prey to stomach and bowel
trouble than ever before. 1t is so
easy to become overheated on a
blazing hot day, especially after
eating a hearty meal. And then
the excessive heat makes us food
our stomachs with all kinds of
cold drinks. That's bad at any
time; much worse-even danger
ous-when there is the slightest
feeling of stomach trouble.
Keep the stomach sweet and
cool and free from too much acid
that's about all that is neces-
sary. It's not so much the diet
as to keep the poison from start
ing trouble. You can easily do
this if you will just take tablet or
two of EATONIC after your meals.

ADVANCEMENT IN
WESTERN CANADA
FARM LAND PRICES

Stories of phenomenal advancement
and prosperity in Western Canada
have been told the reading public for
some years past. The stories were told
when there were hundreds of thou
sands of acres of splendid land ada
cent to railways and projected lines,
which could be had on the payment of
n mere $40 entry fee, and under cultl-
walton and living conditions. AS was
pr0phesled then, the day has come
when these are few. There are still
available thousands of these they are
some distance now from the railways.
The land Is as good rs ever, but plo-
neering conditions will have changed.
A great many are still taking advan-
tage of this free offer from the govern
ment. The story was told when good
lands near lines of railway could be
bought for from So to SO per acre
and the prophecy made that these
prices would double in few years, for
the intrinsic value was far more than
that. That day has come more quickly
than expected. The immense crops Of
grain that could be raised has brought
about the change, and the demand for
low priced lands with maximum re-
turns has prompted the keen pur-
chaser as well as the owner of higher
priced land from which no greater re-
turn could be looked for. Prices of
land in Western Canada are still ad-
vancing, and will continue to advance
until, of course, the limit Is reached
when returns will warrant no further
increase. That day is not far distant.
But, in the meantime, there are large
tracts of land owned by land compa-
MES and private individuals that have
not felt the advance that has been
shown in other districts. The oppOr-
tunity to purchase these should not
be lost sight of, and If there are those
amongst the readers of this article,
which is authorized by the Canadian
government, who wish chean land,
such lands as produce from to 40
bushels per acre, and will pay for
themselves out of one years crop, ad-
vantage should be taken of the present
opportunity.
Coming to Alberta with his family
thirteen years ago, his assets consist !
ing of small outfit and $50 in cash,
Mr.. o. f. Malmberg has accumulated |
by farming and live stock raising as
sets TO the value Of more than $780,

Judge-DO you know this couple?
ParsOn-Yas, sub, l DO.
Judge-Did you marry them?

EATONIC is the wonderful new
compound that absorbs the HARM
full gases and juices and almost
instantly drives away stomach
misery.
Instead of sudden and painful
attacks of indigestion, after you
begin using EATONIC you'll for
get you have stomach. And there
will be no more heartburn, food
repeating, sour stomach, gas pains,
or that lumpy, bloated feeling you have
so often experienced after eating. Then
your appetite-you know how hard it
is to satisfy in hot weather-eat one or
two EATONIC Tablets a half hour be-
fore meals-and you will enjoy the re-
suits and feel better in every way.
These are a few reasons why you
should start using EATONICtoday and
tortify your stomach against the chancs
trouble this summer. 1t costs only SOC
for big package. Your druggist whom
you kLow and can trust, will promptly
refund your money if you are not
more than satisfied.

TortiIIa Leuends.

A current belief in Mexico was that If
persons ate green corr at night they
would suffer from toothache. In order
to prevent this evil it was customary
to warm the ears of corn before eat
ing them after dark. If corn cake
or tortilla doubled over when thrown
upon the comal or clay pan to bake,
it was considered a sure sign that
someone was coming towards the
house. If her husband happened to be
out, the woman to whom this happen
ed while cooking believed it to be q
sign that he was on his way home, and
said, "It was he who had kicked the
tortilla and made It double up"

Only One Aviator Has Reached Forty.

All this amazing science of war fly

Rarely do we find a successful air
man 40 years old. Lieutenant Colonel
Piccio Of Italy, with score Of sew
enteen airplanes brought down to

who has reached this age. On the
other hand, fully score of celebrated
fighting aces are under the age of %.
1t is a young mans game, and solely
by the experience and inventions of
these young men will this important
arm of warfare evolve and become

Two Recipes.

Anne Hodges, age seven, offered her
mother, Mrs. Fletcher Hodges, 322l
North Pennsylvania street, two war
time recipes the other day.
One was for oatmeal cookies and
the other orange peel cake.
The first formula included: One
cupful oatmeal. one cupful baking
powder, one cupful o. dough.
The second formula included: One
half cupful orange peel chopped in a
meat chopper, one cCpful yolks Of
eggs, half cupful o. dough.

Fighting Doors.

All the doors should swing high
enough from the floor to clear any
rugs placed near them. And they
should be placed so that they will not
jam against one another. l know of
two doors in house that persist in
locking knobs just as two angry bulls
lock horns in mortal combat-or is it
deer that do this? And when these
doors are in that position, you can't
get out, but have to back out, go
around another way and separate
them. We don't intend having any
doors like that in this house.-Harry

600, and has n personal credit. worth

lated in land, but bought only TO farm.
Near Blackie, Alberta, he operates g.
100 acres of wheat land. He has just
purchased an additional 1880 acres
near Cardston, In Southern Alberta.
His personal credit enabled him to
finance this deal In Calgary In little
over three hours. The ranch just pur-
chased is fully equipped stock and
grain ranch. At the present time IL
carries n thousand head Of\cattle and
several hundred horses, and is fully
equipped with buildings, machinery,
corrals, sheep sheds, dipping watts, etc
That Is story from one district. Let
us select one from district some hun
dred or more miles from that.
"Peter A. Klassen, who recently
moved to Herbert, Sask., from Kansas,
has purchased Il section Of prairie land
northwest of Herbert, for which he
paid $4,000 cash. He is erecting tenn
porary buildings to live in while put
ting the place in cultivation, and this
summer plans to erect good buildings
on the farm and equip 1t for home.
Mr.. Klassen recently sold his SO-acre
farm in Kansas for $4,000 and is in
vesting the proceeds in Canada"
With the proceeds of the sale of his
land in Kansas, this farmer purchased
in Saskatchewan piece eight times rs
large as he had previously been farm
ing, and had a balance with which to
purchase equipment, stock, etc, of $3,-
600. Moreover rs land in Saskatche-
wan may be expected to yield twice as
much grain per acre, he will be able
to produce sixteen times as much as
formerly.
The average value of farm land for
the whole Of Canada, including land
improved and unimproved, together
with dwelling houses, barns, stables
and other farm buildings, is approx
mately $44 per acre as compared with
SAL in 1916, according to the latest re-
port Of the Census and Statistics
branch at Ottawa. The average value
Of land in the Prairie Provinces is as
follows:
Manitoba ..............$3 .$31OO
Saskatchewan ......... 2GOO
Alberta ............... 26.IO
1t is the low prices at which land
can be obtained in Western Canada
which is rendering this country such
an important factor in the production
of fOodstuffs at the present time. 1t
is enabling men who have been farm
ing small areas in older districts to
take up and farm with the same capi-
tai areas not only many times as great,
but which are also capable of produc-
ing considerably larger crops to the

Elephant Most Useful.

Parrots are playful, but eaglets are
not, and no one has ever been able
successfully to tame an eagle. Among
sea mammals, seals are very playful.
sea lions are not, and trained seals
are among the cleverest performers Of
the vaudeville stage. OF the larger
