CANADA'S NEW DEVELOPMENT

After the War a Period of Prosperity. It is evident that the Government of the Dominion in its programme Of re- , construction and development is unitafeklng fl wrk of tremendous Importance. There will be avaliable the labor for work that has been silent since 1914. and the rehabilitation of this labbr will entail the thought and energy of most capable heads. ’ The transition period from war to peace Mill be ra pfiTaTHF Thorough. n. id. m"Stead of -Canada sinking into a suite of lethargy, there ‘Will be a continued period of .wakefulness that will give employment to the unemployed, and render to the capitalist ftnd producer ample "return for his money, effort and enterprise. The agricultural potentialities of the great Canadian West possess illimitable acres oft he best of soil, capable of producing millions of bushels of the best of grain. The cost of growing this is lower than any place-on the continent. There will be a greater demand than ever for these lands, the consequent production will be heavier and the profits attractive. Cattle industry - will be one of the chief developments. and the i-ncounigement of It will lie in the continued high prices that beef products will bring. European "countries have been depleted of cattle, and the demand for beef, cattle and dairy-producfs will tax The efforts of the producer .for years to come. Western Canada offers unequaled opportunities for development in this line. • In the Canadian West plans are being laid for the development of electric*! power which-can be produced cheaply. There is an abundance of coal and water power that , could be used in developing this useful energy. What cheap power produced in this way will mean, to the farmer and development of industrial enterprises cannot be estimated in figures. More extensive development of the water power at Niagara, the St Lawrence and at waterfalls all over tlie'rouhtff',l§ to be-dHunrhyd.-Peace will see new mine fields opened up. and it is equally certain that shipbuilding, railway equipment steel production, and many of the industries will go forward with a bound. ~ Canadian industries will be required' in the reconstruction of Europe, and already the CanadlaiuGoverpmont has sent across the'^fas-a commission for the purpose of securing orders. Canada took an early and prominent part in the war. ami in~the days oT ponce j will be found-equally active. She feels j that by the valor and loyhlty of her j people she has- earned a large share I of the business and prosperity that will follow the war period, and she proposes to get it. —Advertisement.

This added to hrs courage and he now leaned over to deliver his final philippic. “"And. fellow Americans,” he orated, “this is an American age. There can be no divided allegiance. We have Come to the day when there shall be an American race, an American nation —for Americans only.

And we don’t propose, therefore, to allow those men upon our shores who will accumulate a fortune here by the grace of our institutions and then spread it abroad. To those who visit our shores with that -end Jn view, there can be but ope .greeting,'Keep out.”’ Danbury felt several tugs at hist coat from behind and, wheeling about, took the assembled politicians by surprise.

"Where was he :ts.sTghed to spt'ak that night?” he inquired, and was surprised to 1< arn he was on the blacklist. "Why?” he demanded. The clerk couldn't tell him. Then Danbury heatedly forced his way into the eommittw room, and with. blazing eyefl confronted Coionel Thomas. ■ . •’Colonel Thomas.” he began, "what is the trouble around here? What have I done?” “What have you done?” echoed "Too bkiine much. You’ve tuiiuMi me. After-that fool speech of yours I’ll be. lucky to jtet ten votes, in the Fourth district. We re spending a thousand dollars today to deny your statements.’ “.To deny your Americanism?" demanded Carter, and he now turned wrathfully towards the candidate. “Why not call a spade a spade? See here, you call yourself statesmen. I call you traitors. ¥You’re afraid to acknowledge the country who gave you ibirth, who gives you a living, t< back it up to the full, just*becausfe it might lose you votes.

Who’s the worse—they with their hopes, their ideals, or you who turn your backs upon the. hopes mid ideals yotir forefathers fought for and left to your keeping?

At the end ofkthe table a tall, whitehaired old man, who stroked his bristling white goatee, rose and rapped for order. Then he bent his full gaze on Danbury. "You do,” he answered, sharply, qnd then the corners of his mouth quivered. "Gentlemen of the committee, the son again Trs-fatheb to the man. I -was the one who ptilled-his coat last night, and I rise with shame to acknowledge it. Either we’re Americans, we’re Gm! only knows what—and I prefer the former.” He turned to DanTrary: 7~YTtits back, suh, my grandfather’s father gave him his swo’d. ‘Keep this, my son,’ says he, ‘an’ nevah use it except foah two purposes, eithah t’ kill some beastly enemy, or t’ kill ypself fo’ah not doin’ it.’ An’ if I hail that swo’d now, suh, I’d feel mighty tempted t’ use it on myjself.

How to Test Colors.

If the color is solid or Wi,th little white plait a sample of it with a strip of white material. Make a strong;soap solution. Have it warm but not hot. Rub and squeeze the goods In this for ten minutes. Rinse in cold water, let it dry. If the color holds fast, the water not colored and the strip of white not stained- one may he pretty sure of the color. To test for light; expose a piece.j)f material, in both a wet and to strong sunlight for a week. If the goods do not show signs of fading it is reasonably sure they will not do so. If you want various colors for a cotton rug at small expense'use Easter egg dyes.

Bomb-Dropping Balloons.

The first bomb-dropping balloons were humble enough and equally futile. Balloons had been used in war as early as the siege of Maubeuge by the Austrians for observation purposes. The first talk ttf bomb dropping was in 1812, when the Russians were said to have a huge bqlloon for that purpose r J>ut.. nothing was done with it. in 1847, however, the Austrians, when attacking Venice, sent up paper fire balloons, which were to drop shells into tfie town. But they forgot to allow for cpntrarV air 'currents. The ballons goj intp one, drifted back toward the Austrians and hombed them instead of Venice.' j > .

Acid-Stomach Makes Millions Suffer

Indigestion—dyspepsia—sour stomachs—bloated,gassy stomachs—belchy, miserable-feeling stomachs —these are Acid-Stomachs. What a lot. of misery they cause! How Acid-Stomach, with its day-after-day sufferings, does take the joy out of life! Not only that AcidStomach is always undermining one’s health. Think of what acid does tp the teeth—how the acid eats through the enamel, causing them to decav. Is it any wonder, then, that ,AcidStomach saps the strength of the strongest bodies and wrecks the health of so many people? You see ACID-STOMACH victims everywhere always ailing. They cant tell exactly what is the matter; all they say is, "I don’t feel well’'—“l’m all in; tired, sickly.” If they only knew it; nine times'ouf of ten it la Acid-Stomach that is ailing them. It surely makes good digestion difficult, causes food to sour and ferment in the bowels, weakens the blood and fills the system with poisons. It prevents one from getting the full strength out of their food.
