SPLENDID CANADIAN CROPS Wheat, Oats and Barley Universally Good Throughout Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta.

The reports that come to hand from the wheat fields of the western Canadian provinces show remarkably good yields in all parts. Yields are recorded of wheat and 40 bushels in many places, and oats from 60 to 100 bushels per acre. Barley and flax are splendid. The thousands of Americans throughout the United States who have friends in Manitoba, Saskatchewan or Alberta will be pleased to learn of the great success that has followed their efforts. Many of these have not confined themselves to the growing of grain, but have also gone into the cattle Industry. On the luxurious grasses that are so abundant there, in almost all districts, make this industry safe and profitable. The land sales reported by the railway companies and by the different land companies show the great increase that will likely take place during the next year in farming operations. What has been said time and time again may now be well repeated, that there is no place on the American continent where the same opportunities are afforded the man looking for a home, for the young man starting out In life, the man with a growing up ,family, who desires wider scope for his ambition. The Canadian government agents located at different points in the states will be glad to advise the reader of the conditions, and relate to him Instances of the great success that has followed farming in Western Canada.

Not In Circulation There.

An error of a new clerk in the mailing department of an eastern publisher was responsible, the other day, for the mailing of a prospectus to a worldfamous statesman, who had been dead for some years. The letter was returned a few days later with the following indorsement: “In Heaven, , 1911. Gentlemen: As your publications are pot permitted to circulate here, I believe it would be useless for me to subscribe for them. Yours respectfully,” and here followed the name of the famous statesman.

RASH ALL OVER BABY’S BODY

Itched So He Could Not Sleep

"On July 27, 1909, we left Boston for a trip to England and Ireland, taking baby with us. After being in Ireland a few days a nasty rash came out all over his body. We took him to a doctor who gave us medicine for him. The trouble started in the form of a rash and was all over baby’s body, head and face, at different times. It irritated, and he would scratch it with all his might. The consequence was it developed into sores, and we were afraid it would leave nasty scars on his face. “When we reached England we took baby to another doctor, who said his condition was due to change of food and climate, and gave more medicine. The rash got no better, and it used to Itch and burn at night so bad that the child could not sleep. He was completely covered with it at different times. It was at this time that my mother advised us to try Cutlcura Soap and Ointment After using Cutlcura Soap and Cuticura Ointment for about nine months the places disappeared. There are not any scars, or other kind of disfigurement, and baby is completely cured by the Cuticura Soap and Ointment We have no further trouble with baby’s skin. Nothing stopped the itching, and allowed baby to sleep but Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment” (Signed) Mrs. Margaret Gunn, 29 Burrell St, Roxbury, Mass., March 12, 1911.

Circumstantial Evidence.

A Scotchman and his wife were visiting in a wild, beautiful part of the country. While driving one day with 'their host, the two men sitting together in the front seat while the lady sat behind, they crossed a high bridge which spanned a roaring torrent An unusually loud splash caught the gentlemen’s attention for a moment but nothing was said. After several miles the gentleman turned to address a remark to his wife, but her seat was empty. “Aye,” he remarked to his host “that will be yon splash we heard.”— Housekeeper.

Fate Played Cards

“You are late, Colette," said the young man reproachfully, as the girl appeared at the spring a little breathless from baste and the last warm rays of the summer sun. , “We were delayed. Aunt Hannah had callers.” She dropped upon the rustic seat with unstudied grace. "Callers are a great event with us, you know,” she added with a smile, “and these —have decided to spend the night, I believe!” They gazed at each other solemnly for a moment, and then laughed. What a gem this girl was among these good, simple hill people, with her delicate beauty and refined ways! James Blakeson gazed at her until the soft color deepened in her cheeks, and her reproachful eyes dropped to her pink gingham lap. You have not always lived here, Colette?” he said, gently. ’ “Why do you ask?” “You seem different from these people, some way. Have you no home?” “Only the sort of home’ my aunts make for me.” answered Colette Grey quietly. Determination clutched the heart of Blakeson. “But how will your mother receive an inexperienced hill girl?” whispered Discretion In his dhr. "She will receive my wife unless I am greatly mistaken,” answered Determination with grim purpose. “But you must remember you are Keeper at ‘The Bowlders,’ ’* insisted Discretion, with unnecessary persistence. “Whatever I am, I love her with every beat of my heart!” cried the whole being of the man fiercely. “Colette,” he said, a great strength pulsing under the calmness of his .manner, going to her and lifting her gently to her feet, “Colette, look at me!” The girl lifted her eyes bravely, and the flush that flooded her face at his look faded suddenly, leaving her pale and shaken. “No, no!” she cried. “I love you! I love you!” he said. “No, no!” she cried. “You must not.” ' "Will you marry me?” he looked at her compelllngly. The experienced heart of the girl beat as riotously as true pink gingham hearts and supposed to do. Many men of many stations in life had begged for her hand when it was soft and white and jewel-decked, but never as this man did for the little brown hand of Colette Grey!

“Oh, I cannot —you do not understand,” she murmured miserably. “I —I have deceived you!” “Will you tell me you do not love me?” he insisted still more gently. Oh, if only he were not a keeper—what a man he was! But it could never be; she could never have the courage. Sobs shook her and she hid her face against his coat “What does anything matter, since we love each other, dear?” he asked, when she was quiet. Colette remained motionless, fighting for strength. She did not wish to fight or to be strong; but when one has family traditions, and two dear though exacting maiden aunts, one must never weaken! Upon the soft evening air, there came unexpectedly the sound of uncertain steps and a refined, impatient voice: “I am certain Hannah said Patricia went down this lane, but I assuredly see nothing of her!” “Oh.” whispered the girl, lifting her head in sudden alarm. “I cannot see them now! What can I do?” James Blakeson glanced through the wild cherry bushes at the two approaching figures, and back at the girl’s appealing face. Then lifting her bodily, he set her on her feet on the opposite side of the wall, vaulted it himself, and crashed hastily through the undergrowth. ’ "Scamper," he said, grasping her hand firmly, and breathlessly they sped over the rough ground to the shelter of the woods below. “Let’s begin over again,” said the young man. when they were comfortably seated on a convenient log and had regained their breath. “What Is the use? What I told you is final!” Colette tried to speak austerely. “But you answer too soon. You did not hear what I had to say." “I do not wish to hear; I cannot endure it, Jamie, for my answer must be the same!” “Dear, dear girl!” His hand went out to the pink gingham where it fluttered over the rough log. “Still, you ought to listen. It isn’t fair not to let me tell you—and it isn’t fair for you not to hear!” The girl sat in unhappy silence. “Colette.” he said at last, laying her hand against the rough bark and thoughtfully spreading her pretty fingers as if for love of touching them, “will you tell me honeetly why you cannot marry me?” , “If you knew how I have deceived you, you would not wish it,” she answered seriously. “I can take care of you, dear. I think I am justified in saying that my prospects—are good.” She failed to see the quizzical smile be cast at her. "Tell me," he commanded, covering

the little hand on the log with hi* big brown one. c I—l am not Colette said, faintly, “I am a very different sort of person.** “I have felt that all along, some way. You have a different air. But why are you here?** “My aunts —they were determined to marry me to a —you know how those things are sometimes arranged?" He nodded comprehendingly. “And so you ran away?” “And so I bought some gingham frocks and came up here to my old nurse." "You disliked the man?” ha questioned very gently. "I did not know the man,” she admitted with a smile. "I am told he is a very admirable person. I simply did not care to run the risk of disliking him!” ' _ “It is not your first experience, then?” “Oh, no! I have had men produced for my conquest as long as I can remember!” The man laughed outright at her tone. “It must be rather unsatisfactory," he admitted. “Now, I can imagine myself holding a lively grudge against a person I was to make love to by order!" “It is most unpleasant,” she agreed, looking at him with gentle thoughtfulness. “There is no freshness left to life like that.” “Colette!” James Blakeson leaned toward the girl with serious lips but with eyes brimming with laughter. “Colette, have you never detected anything promising about me —anything that might be considered above a keeper’s station?” Colette looked at him in wonder. “What can you possible mean?” “I mean that I am not keeper of ‘The Bowlders.’ Not by any means do I occupy so independent and enviable a position! “When I came up to look things over I saw they took it for granted I was the new keeper. So I let it stand, that I might get fetter acquainted with the neighbors who would accept the servant when they would scorn the master." “And you would have married Hannah Grey’s niece?” questioned the girl, wonderingly. "I would marry you, dear heart, whoever you were, if you would consent. “If I can produce sufficient credentials do you think I may be accepted not only by the aunts, but by yourself as well, Colette?” “My name is Patricia Colette Beldon,” she suggested, in a small voice. "The name is neither unfamiliar nor unpleasant. And tell me —Patricia,” placing, his hands upon her shoulders, “was the man Blake Wentworth?” « “How could you know?” cried Patricia sharply. “You do not mean that you—” “Patricia, do not blame me! I hated being thrown at your head as much as you disliked having me. But I could not see any way out of it if I allowed myself to be presented, without offending two families and upsetting the tradition. So I —absented myself! My only excuse, Patricia darling, is that I did not know you!” “Oh,” cried Patricia, “I’m glad you’re not the keeper because there would have been a dreadful fuss —and I could never have given you up! But I can hear their-horrid egotism!” “You will not have to bear it alone, dear heart,” he said, kissing her tenderly. “The dear aunties looked decidedly unhappy in the lane just now, let us go and scatter some of our happiness, my girl.” “They cannot cheat us of the fun we have had, anyway,” answered she of the pink gingham with satisfaction.

Royalty is represented in the D.

The In* fanta has paid little heed to the honor and ndver has communicated with any of the officers of the society, though many complimentary cards are sent her from time to time. Certain mem* beta of the D. A. R. favor bestowing honorary membership on the royal family of several countries that assisted the Americans in the revolution. Many distinguished French women are eligible and several have joined the society in its Paris branches.

MIINYnN PRFifflK nil 11 ■ ill n * n ■ m> n r ■ NOPEffllflSOm New Association Gaining Many Members. FAITH’S CURATIVE POWER • NOTED HEALTH EXPERT GIVES REASON FOR BIG SUCCESS IN MEDICINE * Tremendous success has attended the organization of the new Munyon “Hope Cult.” Professor Munyon claims that he has secured more converts than he even anticipated, and says that his “Hope Cult" is growing In leaps and bounds. It is said that the total membership of the association throughout the United States is now well over the half million mark. In a statement for publication Prof. Munyon said: “I want to talk to every sick, ailing and despondent person in this city. I want to preach my new creed to them. I want to tell them about my new philosophy of health, which is the fruit of a lifetime of study and experience in deal- ’ ing with sick folk. I want to expound the Great Truth that I have learned that there is more curative power in an ounce of Hope than in pounds of Dope. That sick people should not take medicine except as a medium through which the great curative power of Hope may be made effective. Medicines are necessary in the present state of the world’s progress because they give. a patient physical support and strength and renewed vigor with which to brace up the will power. One knows, from the action of the proper medicines, that he or she is feeling better by this inspired hope and faith, which complete the cure. “I think that probably a million persons at least in the United States have declared themselves cured by my medicines, and I know that these people have had the best remedies medical science had to offer. I have always contended that if there is any virtue in medicine my followers should have the best, but I verily believe that more than one-half of those who have been lifted to health from the bondage of chronic illness, through taking my medicines, have been really cured by the knowledge that they had the utmost in medical lore at their i command, and the Hope this inspired. “I am not in any sense a nracticing physician. I employ at my laboratories In Philadelphia a large staff of expert physicians and chemists, and I have many other physicians in various cities of the United States detailed to give free advice to ths sick and afflicted. My headquarters are at Munyon’s Laboratories. 53d and Jefferson Sts., Phils., Pa., and I have there a staff of duly registered physicians and consulting experts, and to all who desire it I offer the best of medical advice absolutely free at charge.” Write today, addressing Prof. J. M. Munyon personally and your letter will have a special care.
