It was interesting to hear these peo- pie talk. Their practical minds showed that they had not lacked opportunities for observation. They could not find what they wanted for the boys. When he was between twenty and twenty five years of age, MT. Marcy pictured to himself the kind of a home he wanted. He reared a family of boys and had yet to find such a place. His years journey had been fruitless in that respect.
 one day he decided he would try what Western Canada could do. He mad read of it, and he had friends there who had done well. He toured the provinces of Manitoba, Saskatche- wan and Alberta. He saw the vast pratries, yielding their twenty and twenty-five, and as high as forty bush els of wheat, with enormous yields Of other grains. The north central coun- try, which afforded the grass and the shelter that made stock-raising a val uable adjunct to the growing of grain, was visited, interviews were had with the settlers, many from his own home district, and all were satisfied
 Only the other day he arranged for a car in which he will load his effects to be taken to the Alberta farm he had purchased when on his visit. Mrs. Marcy goes with him, and the six boys will follow. He found the place he had pictured in his mind when he was twenty or twenty-five years old. "I was unable to find it until made my Western Canada visit. I bought the farm, and am satisfied. When saw a carload of four-year-old steers brought into the Edmonton market, weighing 1,700 pounds, that had never been inside building nor fed bit of grain, I was glad had made up my mind."-Advertiseme

After the Reign of the Hundred Days' and the crushing defeat of Napoleon at Waterloo, the congress of Vienna reassembled, meeting in June. when the smoke of Waterloo had scarcely cleared away. The dele gates came again to the council taDle with an appetite for plunder, whetted by the exciting events of the recess. Tkev looked upon their former work and found it good, but capable of be- ing improved. The idea that the Italians. who were handed over to German rule; Poles, who were handed over to Prussian and Russian rule, or the Norwegians, who were transferred to the rule of Sweden, should have any voice in the matter, seems not tS have weighed with the map-makers.
 Large armies were still kept under. arms in France and Italy. Murat, the sergeant of marines whom Napoleon had made a marshal of France ana king of Naples, had deserted the en- ueror when things went against him in 1914, hoping thus to keep his throne of Naples and the two Sicilies. But Murat knew that the congress of Vienna was seeking some excuse to oust him and dispose of his kingdom; that they would, by hook or crook, find such an excuse, and so, when Napoleon broke out from Elba, he de clared for the emperor. Whereupon an allied army promptly drove him out of Naples. Now the congress gave bIurat's kingdom to that line of the BOurbons which had formerly reigned there. whose misrule had been scan- 0al to Europe.
 The congress spent very agree able summer and fall in completing their work. When it was concluded Austria had not only northern Italy but Dalmatia on the eastern shore of the Adriatic confirmed to her, Prussia, which had proved the most greedy land-grabber of all the nations, had not only half of Saxony, and a slice of Poland, but the extensive Rhine provinces and Swedish Pomerania. Sardinia was restored to the status of a kingdom and Genoa on the main land was added to it. The territory cf Switzerland was enlarged and the

Home of Runnn Inventor.

Magdeburg was the home city of Otto von Guericke, inventor of the air pump, one of the few original fnven- tions that can be credited to Germany despite the German fostered impress sion to the contrary. Students of phys ics will recall a principle of physics proved by what Is often called the "MagGeburg experiment." Won Guer- icke is said to have demonstrated his discovery of the possibilities of the vacuum to Ferdinand III by clamping together two parts of a copper sphere, from which the air was then exhaust ed and hitching 15 horses to each hem- isphere. The story that the horses could not pull the hemtspheres apart may be an exaggeration, but the prin- ciple is sound.

Roman church states restored to the pope. Spain was declared the right ful property of the Bourbons. A Ger manic confederation, with Austria at its head, which embraced all Ger many except West and East Prussia and the duchy of Posen, was formed. England had Ceylon, part of Guiana, Heligoland, Cape Colony, Malta, Mau- rit1us, etc, confirmed to her and was given a protectorate over the Ionian islands off Greece.
 The Congress Is Dissolved.
 Having thus settled the affairs of Europe, the congress dissolved, well pleased with it's work. The peace of Europe had been settled as every oth- CT peace had been, on the basis of what the continental powers were able to seize for their own aggrandize- 1nent and left, as Whitbread had pre- dicted, the seeds of bloody and re vengeful wars"
 Napoleon said afterwards at St. Helena of the British part in it: "So silly a treaty was never signed be- fore; they gave up everything and got nothing"
 It was the exhaustion of Europe by nearly twenty years of war and the intense longing of people for peace that enabled the arrangements of the congress of Vienna to be carried out without violent uprising on the part of the bartered natiOnalities

Mysterious Stonehende.

An English historian alludes to Stonehenge as the probable remains of an ancient Druidical temple. The Druids were priests who taught as- trology, magic and legal lore, gener- ously giving their pupils 20 years to finish the course. They made human sacrifices to the gods and venerated the oak and the mistletoe. It was great day when mistletoe was found growing on an oak; it was cut off with a knife of gold and festival was held at which 8 pair of milk-white bulls
