The places with & populuthm over .1.000 can be counted upon tho lingers of one hand, and yet the prosperity that prevails Is Msm. thlnK unprecedented In the history of til countries past or present. Tho reason for this marvelous prosperity Is not hard to seek. Tho l;ire majority of the 810miO people vi inhabit Manitoba.

When such returns are obtainable f-oni tho soil It Is not to be wondered a that many pre teSVtBg the congested districts of the eayst. to take upon themselves the Ufa of the prairie farm and the labor of the houshandman. With the construction of additional

railroads new sransw ior uni unuial enterprise are opening up. and Improved oppor'unitles are offered to the t, tier who understands prairie farminir and Is willing to do his part in. building up the new country. This is the theme that Mr. J. J. Hill, the veteran railroad builder In the West, has laid before the people In a series of addresses which he has given at various points during the I i tow months, and. having been for o long identified with the develof the West, there are few men better qualified than he to expn -s an opinion upon It. Take care ef the country, says he. and the cities will take care of themselves. The farmers of the Western States and the Canadian West, are more prosperous than ever before, and when It comes to measuring up results, tho Canadian appears to have eon., what the better of it. His land It cheaper in fact, the government continues to give free homesteads to settlers, and the returns per acre are h- i r when tho crop is harvested, faming land In the Western States t is trot f0 to $150 an acre and np. when u . qually good soil may be purChased la '"anada for $8 to $15 per sc:- wltl :i easy reach of a shipping lad much of this Is available for free fa -iiesteadlng.

The extreme poverty and the low standard of living of peasants from vti.im the Russian agricultural laborers are recruited assure a low level of wages for agricultural labor.

This district lies in the extreme southwestern part of Mexico, near the boundary line of Guatemala The mahogany bridge Is constructed entirely of that valuable wood, except some iron braces and nails that are necessary. The bridge spans the Rio Michol and Its total lenc'h. Including approaches, exceeds 150 feet, while the width Is 15 feet. It is used by both teams and pedestrians and. though somewhat rude and primitive In construction. It is very substantial. None of the timbers of the flooring were sawed, for in that region there are no sawmills, but were hewn and split. In that section of old Mexico there are several very large rubber plantations, and mahogany trees are quite common. In clearing away the tropical forests for setting out the young rubber trees the mahogany growths are also cut down and removed. As this wood is quite abundant, some of It was used in building the bridgs. American Inventor.

Uses of Masks. "Among the North American Indians the origin of the use of masks lay." ; says a writer, "in the desire to conMal the emotions. Thus should two warriors met In combat, the mask conceals any expression, whether of j sympathy, fear or other emotion. For 1 Instance, the knowledge that fear was , depicted on one s face and that his sn- !

tagonlst knew It would very possibly Insure the defeat of the on whose feelings were betrayed to the other."

and investigating mind, sn earnest seeker sfter knowledge, snd above all, posesA-d of a wonderfully sympathetic nature. In l43she married Iaac Pinkhara. a builder snd real estate operator, and their early married life wls marked byprosperity and happiness. They hud four children, time sons and a daughter. In those good old fashioned davs it

was common for mothers to make ' their own home medicines from roots and herbs, nature s own remedies calling in a physician only in specially urgent cases. By tradition and experience many of them gained a wonderful knowledge of the curative properties of the various roots and herbs. Mrs. Pinkham took a great interest in the study of roots and herb, their characteristics and power over disease. She maintained that just as nature so , bountifully provides in the harvestfields and orchards vegetable foods of i all kinds: so, if we but take the pains to find them, in the roots and herbs i of the field tnere are remedies ex

pressiv designed to cure the various

ills and weaknesses of the body, and it was her pleasure to search these out. snd prepare simple and effective medicines for her own family and friends. Chief of these was a rare combination of the choicest medicinal roots and herbs found best adapted for the cure of the ills and weaknesses peculiar to the female sex. and Lydia E. I'inkham'ü friends and neighbors learned that her compound relieved and cured and it became quite popular among them. All this so far wasdone freely, without money and without price, as a labor of love. But in 1973 the financial crisis struck Lynn Its lengt h and severity were too much for th l;rge real estate interests ot trie Pinkham family, as this class of business suffered most from fearful depression, so when the Centennial year dawned it found their property swept away. Some other source of income haul to be found. At this point Lydia E. Pinkham's

argued that the medicine which was

so good for their woman menus ami neighbors was equahv good for the women of the whole world. The Pinkhams had no money, and little credit. Their first laboratory w is the kitehen, where roo'.s and herbs were steeped on the stove, gradually filling a gross of bottles. Thea came the question of selling it, for always before they had given it away freely. They hirt.-d a job printer to run off some pamphlets setting forth the merits of the medicine, now called Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and these were distributed by the Pinkham sons in Boston, New York, and Brooklyn. The wonderful curative properties ot

the medicine were, to a great extent, self-advertisiog, for whoever used it

recommended it to others, and the demand gradually increased. In 1877, by combined efforts the family had saved enough money to commence newspaper advertising and from that time the growth and success of the enterprise were assured, until today Lydia L PinkflflSn and her Vegetable "Compound have become household words everywhere, and many tons of rix-its and herbs are used annually in its manufacture. Lydia E. Pinkham herself did not live to see the great success of this work. She passed to her reward yecrs ago, but not till she had provided means for continuing her work as effectively as she could have done it herself.

During her long and eventful experience she w as ever methodical in her work and she was alwayscareful topreserve areeordof every case that came to her attention. The case of every ick woman who applied t her for advice and there were thousands received careful study, and the details, including symptoms, treatment and results were recorded for future reference, and to-day these records, together with hundreds of thousands made since, are available to sick women the world over, and represent a vast collaboration of information regarding the treatment of woman's ills, which for authenticity and accuracy can hardly be equaled in say library in the world. With Lydia E. Pinkham worked her daughter-in-law. the present Mrs. Pinkham. She wascarefully instructed in all her hard-won knowledge, and for years she assisted her in her vast correspondence. To her hands naturally fell the direction of the work when its originator passed away. For nearly twentyfive years she has continued it, and nothing in the work shows when the first Lydia E Pinkham dropped her pen. and the present Mrs. Pinkhara. now the mother of a large family. Uok it up With women assistants, some as capable as herself, present Mrs.

Pinkham continues this great work , and probably from the office of no other person have so many women been advised how to regain health.
