HEW RAILWAYS IN CENTRAL CANADA.

.L:nerIoan Settier. Welcome nvJ Iioiu- v.'ell. The Portland Oregon ian, of Portland. Oregon, published a cartoon on the immigration of U. S. people to Canada, in its issue of October 5, lDuD. The picture was accompanied by tha following article: 'Losing American Citlzen3. The exodus of American farmers to Canada continues to be a phenomenon of tha first importance. More of them are crossing the border this fall than ever before, and they are flocking thither from all parts of the country. Formerly it was the Middle West alone which thu3 lost the heart of its citizenship. Now all sections of tho Union suffer alike. The regret which we cannot help feeling over the migration of many thousands of excellent citizens has an economic side which causes some concern. The 70,000 farmers who win go to Canada to live this fall will take with them some $70,1)00,000 in cash and effects. This Is by no means a negligible sum, and makes a very appreciable drain onour reSources. But, of course, the most serious loss is the men themselves and their families, who have forsaken the land of the free and the home of the brave to dwell under the rule of a monarch. "Why do they go Naturally the cheap and fertile land of Western Canada attracts them. Each emigrant goes with a reasonable expectation of bettering his fortune. Indeed, in a few yctrs he may grow rich through the aVjndant crops he can raise and the Increase of land values. But perhaps that is not the sole reason for the astonishing migration. There Is a common notion abroad that In Canada life and property are appreciably safer than they are here. Murders are not so frequent, and are more speedily and surely punished. l.Tobs and the socalled 'unwritten law are virtually unknown in Canada. Again, the law is a vastly more ascertainable entity there. Canada does not permit its judges to veto acts of a legislative body. When a statute has been enacted It Is known to be the law of the land until it is repealed. This natuTally irapart3 to Canadian civilization a security and stability which we have not yet attained. We must remember, In the same connection, that the Canadian protective tariff i3 far less exorbitant than curs, and much less boldly arranged fcr the benefit of special favorites. Hence there is an Impression, very widely diffused, that the Canadians are not so wickedly robbed by the trusts as we are in this country. Reasons like these sufficiently account for the exodus of a body of citizens, whom we -can ill afford to lose, but they do not much assuage our regret that they mnnot be retained in the United States." Speaking of this, a Canadian Government representative says that the Americans who cross the border are most welcome. The splendid areas of virgin soil, a large quantity of which Is given away as free homesteads, lies close to existing railways and to those under construction. The railway lines that are assisting in this development are the Canadian Pacific, the Canadian Northern and the Grand Trunk Pacific. The latter is built entirely on Canadian soil, and has opened up a wonderful stretch of land. Along this line during the year about closed thousands of American settlers have made their homes. They have built the towns, and Immediately began as factors In the building up of the great Canadian West. Agents of the Government are located in various cities throughout the United States who will be pleased to give any Information that may be desired to further the Interest of the settler. A Tribute. "In E. H. Harriman's obituary notices." said a New York clergyman, "due prominence wasn't given to his fondness for little children. That children were also fond of him was proved by a remark my little daughter made last month. 'Mr. Harriman Is dead, my dear,' I said to her.

CnAPTER XI. (Continued.) Tow;-ds the end of the first week In December a very' hard frost set in suddenly, with every prospect of lasting. There was a wide sheet of water j In the grounds of Umeny Hall, somo j two and a half miles distant from Harvingrton. and to this sheet of water Instantly repaired all the skating population of the surrounding country. Lamenjr Hall belonged to Sir Joseph i Goodford, and he was the most popul lar and hospitable man on all that side of the county. Everybody liked nay. loved "Sir Joe." a3 he was called his ! Jovial, round face and laughing blue eyes and genial manners were well I known to everyone. He was a widewer, with one son, who was seldom i at home, and a quartette of grown-up ' daughters four buxom, blue-eyed, j fair-haired girls, with their father's ! loud. Jolly laugh, and hearty way of ( making everybody feel , welcome at their house. As soon as the Ice could bear invl- ! tation notes were flying about to all the houses in the neighborhood, from Laura, and Flora, and Nora and Cora Goodford, begging everybody to make the most of the frost, and some over in force to Lameny Lake. Of course Miss Carroll and her brother, and Agatha Dale, were among the invited. Miss Carroll did not skate. but she walked about with Sir Joe and other fathers and mothers, along the side of the frozen water, watching the pretty scene, and her own particular "children" among the rest, and waited for them afterwards In the house, drinking her tea, and chatting to her friends indoors when she had had enough of it out of doors. Agatha did not skate very well, and Rupert took it upon himself to teach her. Agatha found It very delightful to be helped along by the young man's strong arm that was ready to support her If she tottered, or to catch her if she fell. Flushed with the keen air and evercise, and her eyes shining with a new glow of tenderness and happiness, the girl developed daily fresh and unsuspected charms. She looked radiant; her talk was full of spontaneous delight: her laughter rang out cleat as a bell across the ice.- It was not only Agatha's skating that improved under Rupert's tuition. lie began to wonder why he had never found out before how charming she could be, and he was angry with himself because he stil retained that same sisterly feeling towards her, which precluded all Idea of sentiment. And perhaps to the end of the chapter he would never have altered this attitude with regard to her, had not something been opportunely said to him that opened his eyes to the truth. It was the fourth day of the frost, and there was to be an Impromptu dance got up at a day's notice, in th-3 evening. All the skaters were Invited to stay and partake of a kind of picnic meal and to dance afterwards In the great entrance hall, that, with its oak polished floor, could be very quickly prepared for terpsichorean pleasures. Miss Carroll, with most of the elders, went home early, soon after tea; she said that she was too old to dance, and that, at her age, she hated to b? kept out of her bed, whilst others did so. She told Rupert to take care of Agatha, and to bring her home safely, and she drive away In the brougham, promising to send it back for them at a later hour. Carroll naturally did not sit near Agatha at dinner; the tables, for there were two of them, were very long, and occupied the whole length of the room, and Aggie's place happened to be far away from his, at the furthest extremity of the table at which he sat. He made himself agreeable to Miss Cor.i Coodford, who was seated next to him. "Now do tell me, Mr. Carroll, are r.ot to have a wedding in Harvington Church soon?" she asked. "I am sure I do not know, Miss Cora," replied Rupert. "Oh, that Is all very well to pretend not to understand!" rejoined the young lady, "3 If you did not know perfectly well whom I am thinking about! that naughty girl disappointed us all so horribly before!" "Are you talking of Agatha?" inquired Carroll, with some surprise. "Am I? Oh! really, that Is too funny! Now confess at once, if you please, that you know as well as I do why that affair came to nothing!" "You have the advantage of me. Miss Cora, replied the young man. very stiff ly. "I know nothing whatever about Agatha's engagement, nor why It was broken off." "Oh! oh! oh!" cried out the playful damsel laughingly, floundering deeper and deeper Into the mire. "How sly you men are! As if you didn't knowthat she threw poor Lord Nethervllle over: Vvll or the sake o' somebody,' as the poet Burns, said!" Carroll reddened. It was impossible now to mistake her meaning; the knowing look she gave him, the wayshe nodded her head, even the little gesture of her uplifted finger all informed him with perfect directness that Miss Cora considered him to be the "somebody," for whose sake Agatha had broken off her engagement. He turned hot and cold all over at the magnitude of the discovery a responsibility of a most serious nature seemed to have suddenly fallen upon him; for, what right had he to spoil the life of a girl he esteemed and liked so much, and who must indeed love him with the most unselfish devotion? For some time after they started homewards they sat side by side in silence, then all at once without any pre amble Rupert turned towards Agatha and said: "Agie, did you throw over Ne Iberville because you cared for someone else?" "Yes, Rupert." she answered in a low voice, her heart suddenly beginning to beat tumult jously. "'Was It was It me that you can 1 for, Aggie?" "I have always carM :..: t v;m:, Rupert nil my life," she answered. slP'ply and earnestly. "Don't you think tht we had tetter get married, Aggie?" said presently, prosaically enough and then, he knew not why he sighc-d. CIIAPTFR XII. It was at Mentone that Iidy Gar- ' land and hr nieca luid settled down j for the winter. The eirl, however. thoroughly r njoyed the beautiful scenery and the still more beautiful cli mate of the Riviera. The mountains that rose in irregular beauty, ono bohind the other, reflected the sunriso and ths sunset in crimson and violet upon tneir rugged sides the wind

blown silver sheen of the olive woods, the tall clumps of waving palms, and of dark-leaved. India-rubber trees, the profusion of flowers on every side, and as a background to it all. the deep dark blue of the tideless Mediterranean all seemed to soothe her rain as much as they charmed her sense?. Irene was not perfectly convinced that Rupert Carroll was dead. Her aunt still persisted that she had seen and spoken to him and that he had denied all knowledge or remembrance of her, but that must have been because someone had turned his heart against her. Irene learnt from her aunt for the first time a secret which her mother had never revealed to her. Lady Garland told her that her father, when she herself was quite an Infant, had dest rted his wife and child, and that it was only w hen he was on his deathbed that he had sent for her mother, who had gone to him at once, and with Christian charity had nursed him to the end. and had forgiven him at the last. She believed that it was on account of this, of which someone must have told him. that Rupert Carroll ha.I thought it his duty to repudiate her. Dut he misTU have written! at least he might have written! It was a fortnight after Lady Garland's supposed meeting with him. that she had seen that vision of him in the night, that his eyes had seemed to look at her yearningly that his voice had rung in her ears. Well, there was but one possible interpretation to it. Rupert must be dead, and In his dying moments, his spirit, filled with love and compunction, had appeared to her for one brief moment, ere It had iultted this world forever. A little variety began to' creep Into the lives of the two ladie3. Lady Gatland adored society. Gossip and afternoon visits were the joy of her existence, and she began to fret after the frivolities of life. It was she who first proposed that they should go over occasionally to listen to the world-famed orchestral concerts in the rooms at Monte Carlo. The ladies took the short Journey o? twenty minutes by train two or thre,j times a week; and whilst Irene sat listening to the music. Lady Garland would slink away into the gambling rooms at the other side of the spacious building, and risk her five-franc pieces with varying success upon the rou!.tte tables. One day Irene was left by herself in a secluded corner of the concert room. The music came to an end, the musicians rose noisily In their places; it was the end of the first part, and thero was an Interval of ten minutes. A group of persons stood talking and laughing a few rows in front of her. A pretty, but rather over-dressed

woman standing amongst some other ladles, first attracted her attention. She had golden hair, much too golden in fact, and more than a suspicion ot rouge on her cheeks, but she was pretty and very animated In manner. She reached over the backs of two rows of the stalls before her, and tapped a gentleman who was sitting down on the shoulder with her fan! "Come!" she cried, "take me out for a little walk, please, and get me a cup of tea. I am famishing for tea come along at once." The gentleman addressed stood up and turned round. The beautiful cou-cert-room with Its massive gilding, and its domed frescoed celling, suddenly swam and danced before Irene's eyes. She uttered a faint, smothered cry, and half rose in her place. It was Rupert Carroll. Her breath came quick and fast, her heart wa3 beating wildly, a crimson Hugh flooded her pa!e, sensitive face from brow to chin. le came sauntering along. ITis face was turned towards the lady by his side she was talking volubly to him. When he came quite close, he raised his head, and his eyes met Irene's fully. There was not a vestige of recognition In them! Sh tried to speak, but it was ..j though she was choking, her lip i refused to frame a word. It was her betrothed, the man who had taught her to love, who had asked her to bo his wife, whose parting kisses In the moonlight were still craven In her heart, whosa parting words of love still rang in her ears, and yet he passed her by without seeming to see her! Wildly she thrust forth one hand a3 though to stop him; If she could have spoken she would have called his name aloud, but her throat was dry and parched and she could not utter a sound. She heard the woman who was with him say as they went on together. "Who Is that girl? She Ftared nt you very oddly do you know her?" She lid not hear the answer. They passed on toget all of them, out of the concert room, and presently among the few people who were left, there arose a little commotion, for a young lady In black had suddenly fallen .down. Lady Garland coming back opportunely to look after her niece, was horrified to find her stretched in the narrow passage in a dead faint, supro'-tod in the arms of a charitable lady who was a perfect stranger, whilst another kneeling on the floor beside her was holding a salts bottle to her nose. "It is so hot in here," said one of them, as Lady Garland bustled up and claimed the unconscious girl "as her niece. "I really don't wonder at anybody fainting, the atmosphere Is simply awful; they never air these rooms properly." She revived a little at last, and Lady Garland sent for a carriage, and thev drove all the way back to Mentone instrnd of returning by tr tin. The air revived her, but she did ryt speak dari:ir the drive at all, piivo to thank lior i'uv.i for her kindness. She was p i! as death, and there was a look in htjr yes that Lady Garland had never srv.'i in them bei ore. .It half frightened her. It v.es tho look of a desperate woman. .;! that evening Irene came lnth r r-.iint's room. Her color had com? j l"(!c a littl.', her Hn3 shone v.illi an I unnatural brilliancy. ;ind her liis were :i t ard hard. "I have come to tell you something, Aunt Anna." said Irene, not noticing th? remark about her health, rnd in tho middle of tho mom crisping tie? l ack. of a chair with Loth hands. "I want to tell you why I fainted to-day. It w:;s because I met Rupert Carroll faro ts face and he cut me dead." Thero was a silence. Lady Garhind in charity would not look at the girl; sh? turned her head away and playej with the ornaments on the tabto. pitied Irene sincerely but she was mn at all sorry for what had happened. "I hope, my dear child," she aald.

presently, "that this will show j'ou how right I was about him, and that you will now put this wretched men who has treated you so shamefully, entirely out of your mind. There are other men i'i the world. Irene " 'I have no doubt tlt they are all miiCh the same cruel and heartless and wicked. I--I had thought that he was dead, but he is quite well and apparently perfectly happy. I shall find it very easy to forget him. Dear Aunt Anna, It is a terrible mistake for a girl to fall In love with any man; girls whu look out for rich husbam'j are much more sensible! That is what I'm going to do." "Oh. well; we won't exactly put it In that way, Irene dear." "Xo. We won't put It in words, will we? We will only do it." And Irene laughed hardly and bitterly. (To be continued.)

SMILING DUTCH WOMEN. Engaging Xntures Hidden Behind UnpromisliiK Front. Dutch women especially are full of precious amiability. They know the secret of the ready smile. Even the solemn, stolid countenances ot the Scheveningen girls, in their big cloaks and their wooden clogs and their white caps worn over middle-parted, straight hair and kept in position with knobs of real or imitation gold even they light up very quickly and reveal an engflging nature behind an unpromising front, say3 a writer In the London Mail. The Hague keeps up its village character by not having yet decided "what it will call itself. Officially it 13 known r.3 " 's üravenhage." Literally this means "the count's hedge," in allusion to the early times, when there was a hunting inclcsure of the counts of Holland here. At the station, however, and in the time tables the place is called "Den Haag." Rather confusing to the foreigner, but not more so than the habit which prevails In the capital of keeping all unofficial clocks and watches twenty minutes fast. When it is noon at the railway station and in the posteffice, it is 12:20 in the streets, shops and hotels. However, o$o must be thankful that the "local time," as they call it, is not twenty minutes slow. . The village aspect of the Dutch capital was impressed upon me the other day when paid a visit to the burgomaster, or lord mayor. I found the bead of the municipality alone, reading a book. It was lucky for ma that he had so little demand upon hU Ume, since it gave me the chance o a long and interesting chat with a singularly charming man. Eut, naturally, I could not help contrasting his leisured ease with the lives of violent activity and hurried, never-ceasing engagements which are the lot of the chief magistrates of other capitals. And then, coming away from the town hall, I passed a funeral. The hearse, heavily draped with black, was driven by an odd figure in a voluminous cloak and a seventeenth century sombrero hat in silk. The village undertaker of course! Some one has compared The Hague to "Versailles before the French revolution." That is scarcely apt, I think. But as I loiter through Its crowded, narrow streets and by the side of Its sleepy canals; as I rejoice bn the sunlight on its ripe, red brick buildings and tiled roofs; js I wander beneath its shady alleys and among its spacious, quiet "peins" or squares. 1 feel stealing over me a sense of restfulness, an od world quietude, rare, indeed, in these noisy scurrying times. Tho Hague, as befits the home of the famous, though futile conference, is one of the last haunts of the spirit of peace. Availability. A nobleman was once showing a rfriend a rare collection of precious stones which he had gathered at a great expense and enormous amount of labor. "And yet," he said, "they yield me no Income." Ills friend replied, "Como with me, and I will show you two stones which cost me but five pounds each, yet they yield me a considerable income."- He took the owner of the ginis to his grist mill and pointed to two gray millstones, which were always busy grinding out grist.

Whr Women Do Xot Marry. It is possible that the woman never lived who was born without the instinct of romantic love and its les3 romantic sequels, but the sharpened intellects of the modern female teach her to observe not only that indulgence in the primitive blessings is often productive of a tame happiness at best, but that it is mere chance if she doe3 not waste several years of her active youth for some man to exert his inalienable right to woo and propose. A man may trample down barriers, make opportunities, persist, overwhelm, but a woman, with double the fascination and intelligence, must either stoop to contemptible scheming or proudly bide her time, as likely as not to miss her one chance of happiness because circumstances do not give her the opportunity to reveal herself to the kindred spirit. If she cannot pursue a man as a man pursues a woman when he wants her, if she has not the supremo attractions which bring a man to a woman's feet with a flash of the eye, she can at least avoid the mean subterfuges of the husband hunters, and lead a life in which a man as a love factor is practically eliminated. She can also enjoy much the same privileges as men, until, perhaps who knows? one day she may meet in this larger, fuller life a congenial, many-sided creature who wants something more thau a re production of his grandmother. Wby Llvlns I llisli. One reason why living is high i3 because we are in an era of rising prices, world wide and apparently progressive to yet greater heights. Scholars attribute this to increased gold production, multiplied demands of prosperity and a reckless spirit that does not count the cost of any indulgence that one can afford. Another reason why the cost of living is high is because we live high. The right economics and systematic self-denials of former days are not nowpracticed; are not, indeed, necessary, even to those who amass wealth from most cnodest beginnings. On the other hand, lavish expenditure is the rule; and the budget of the" average family discloses many forms of outlay that were unknown or tabooed a generation ago. In the main this Is well enough. It is all the accompaniment of progress and better standards of living. In spite of our increased outlays men get richer and get rich more quickly than they could possibly do forty years ago. So the high cost of living is not reducing us to poverty or depriving us of our comfcit and luxuries. It is idle and perhaps vrong to "go It" at this pace and then complain that little Is left after we have bought everything our hearts desire. Indianapolis Star. Fur TrinmIiiK Popular. Fur bands appear everywhere on women apparel. They are seen In tiny linos on dancing frocks and on heavy Russian bats and cloaks. A charming sot seen recently was a searf. short and 12 inches wide, and a hat trimmed with a band of the fur. The scaff was worn softly folded over the shoulders and gathered into buckles at the bust. The moire colonial hat had the edges softened by a generous band of the fur and little cockades of ribbon on either side. I 'or Greater Warmth. Capes are cold things when worn in winter, but being fashionable they are popi'Iur in spite of colds and coughs. Here is a hint for making them more comfortable: Make a pair of loose sleeves of silk the color of lining or outside of cape, as preferred. The latter is more serviceable. Wad weil, finish on top and bottom and attach to the cape with a ribbon or clastic. To adjust sleeves put them on, throw cape over them and tack near shoulder line. Take care that they do not pull the cape out of shape. ew Type of Gown. Pretty semi-evening gowns, called abroad casino gewns, are being worn with but slight decclletage and transparent gulmpes of tulle or mousseline. The materials used on gowns of this type are embroideries, laces or crepe de chines, for satin seems to be somewhat passe. Many of them are trimmed with deep silk fringe, and, as the guimpe is' always collarless, beautiful dog collars of jeweled velvet or jet are worn, so that the gosvn may be becoming with a hat. Somehow a collarless gown and a picture hat are not always a pretty combination. 'What' in n Xninvf Irene was a little street waif. A kind-hearted woman called her Into her home cne day, gave her a bath, brushed her hair and ai ranged it becomingly, tying it with a clean, pretty ribbon; then stepped back to view the result. A friend whoMvas present remarked that there waa such a change, ono would scarcely kno.v that it was the same chilu. Thrn tho little gi;J spoke up timidly, "Cut my name's Irene yet. ain't it?" The Delineator for October. The 51 mi Wliu l'IIrt. The male flirt is one of tho most detestable types that walk the earth, writes Dotty Vint eat. I mean the man who meets a girl, is apparently smitten to tho heart with her charms, "rushes" her for 'i weck cr two, seeing her upon every possible occasion and then as suddenly loses all interest

iflSIll

in her. To be sure, it is partly the fault of the girl who permits a man to call upon her almost every night and in other ways shows that her friendship is easily attained. On the other hand, thero are very young girls of IS or 20 who are too flattered by such attentions to give them their proper weight. Usually the man belonging to this class is very careful to commit himself to nothing. Hi3 eyes look unutterable things, but he is very careful not to express them. He thinks oi the girl as "one more conquest" and as soon as ha is certain of her interest in him his own interest wanes. Be careful of these "rushers," girls. Remember that when a man really cares for you he respects you enough not to take it for granted that your friendship may be had for the asking. Do not be too flattered by sudden bursts of admiration. True love is slow and sure. ,1 .!. i The designers make no secret now of the fact that they are making a strong endeavor to launch the short gown of Restoration days. Even wedding gowns of splendid satin and point lace clear the floor; not all of them, of course; no fashion is absolute, and few new ones are anything but experimental. Evening frocks In all degrees of formality and in the costliest fabrics clear the floor. These are not permissible for the woman over 45, but they will be suggested to all debutantes and young matrons. Just how far the style will be accepted it is hard to tell. Many women, especially those who are fond of dancing, will be only too delighted to accept it. Dignity and elegance can not be claimed for it, but it holds the. blue ribbon of comfort, and that goes far toward Its general acceptance. Both skirts to suits and one-piece frocks under top coats, for street year, are generally accepted. There is no sign of going back to the trailing directolre street skirts of last year. The tailors are busy cutting off hems. Their customers are only too glad to have the fashion change. One year was enough of it. Hume.
