HE LIKES WESTERN CANADA.

Su a Splendid Form, Lota of Stock «ad Faya Scarcely Any Taxes. Bomluian City. Man., Jan. 17, 1898. At the request of the Immigration Department of the Canadian Government I give the following information:

—— ——‘and took land tnDomtnioniClty, Manitoba, where I now reside. I have been very successful in Manitoba, and have more than doubled my capital since I went to Canada. 1 took about $2i560 worth of rheat, £OO bushels of liax and 000 bushels of oats. I do mixed farming. I milk as much as teu cows. Dairying and stock raising has paid me well. 1 have on the farm now 44 head of cattle and 18 bead of horses, and sold during the past year, 1897, $425 worth of fat •cattle. 1 have good buildings and a comfortable house and good stable. My •children have had better school advantages in Manitoba than they had In Minnesota. The district schools are very thorough anil good. My son, now 1G years of age, Is teaching the; public school in our district and receives a salary of $420 pe,; year. All my children have done welt at school. I have $1,700 insurance on my buildings on the farm. I also own my personal warehouse and skip all my grain through it to the railway station at Dominion City. It Is fhee of debt. 1 have no prejudice against the State •of Minnesota, as I made a living and a little more while dn the State, but would uot take a farm as a gift in Minnesota and leave Manitoba. The taxation in Minnesota was too great. I paid taxes •on my stock and chattels; no such taxes have -ever been exacted in Manitoba from me and my land taxes are about one-half or less than it was In Minnesota. I aui delighted with my new ltonte and expect in a few years to be in circumstances that will enable me to take life easy. Yours very truly, S- G. MAYSES. I*. K—Any person that may take exception to tlie foregoing letter will kindly investigate, for I can back up every word it contains. lam not an immigration agent, nor the agent of any oorIKiratioti, but simply a farmer. ». G. MAYXES. The above letter was written at th« request/of C, AY, Speers in tlte State of Minnesota, where I am at present with ray wife, visiting uiy ft-iends in my old lionie. It is my intention to do what l can to have them remove to Canada, where 1 have done so well. Having called upon Mr. Davies of St. Paul. Minn., I was received p ith every courtesy and got some valuable informal ion as well as literature pertainiug to Western Canada.

INFLAMMATORY RUEUMATISM.

From, St. Lawrence Plaiadealer, Canton, N. T. To suffer tor yean with a prevailing painful ailment, which bathed skillful medical treatment, yet which was cured by a simple household remedy, is the lot which befell Mrs. George L. Rogers, of West Alain street. Canton, N. Y. “Thirteen years ago,” said Mrs. Rogers to a reporter, “I was attacked with inflammatory rheumatism and a complication of diseases. You can judge somewhat of what I endured, when you look at these hands. They were distorted, twisted and swollen. My foot, too, is no much out of shape that “tßb, big toe lies across the others, the end touching th« little toe. „ VT . ... “ Notwith-

are without good health. I tried different doctors and many proprietary remedies, but was not benefited. “Last March I tried Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People, and before I had finished the first box I began to feel that they were doing me good. 1 continued using them and steadily grew better. “I have used thirteen boxes of the pills and to-day feel better than for the past fifteen years. My appetite is good, I feel bright, cheerful, and have a desire to live and enjoy society. "I have been a member of the Methodist Church for many years, but for six years was unable to attend. I ana able now to attend the church services regularly and certainly appreciate that privilege. I consider Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People a wonderful medicine.” Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People are composed of vegetable remedies that exert a powerful influence in purifying and enriching the blood, thus curing many diseases.

MONEY MAKING AT HOME

The Home Market the Best Market for Peraevering Woman. “The home market, at first, is always the best market, Jf the place number five hundred individuals,” contends Inez Redding in the course of a thoughtful article on “Finding a Market,” in the Woman's Home Companion, reasoning that “there should be no more false pride in trying to sell to one's neighbor than in selling to some one at a distance. False pride is generally the greatest stumbling-block in the way of the woman who wants to earn money at home. * * • “If one wishes to dispose of fancy articles of any sort, It is better, if capital permits, to first make up quite a goodly number of articles, instead of depending on a few samples and a glib tongue. The articles once made, a young boy or girl may be found to make a house-to-house canvass on commission. At a church fair one would probably be given permission to put in a table and sell as many articles as possible by paying a small sum for the privilege. Parlor sales of fancy articles are usually well attended. If you can succeed in some such way in first Introducing your articles, the way to success is sure, If one is willing to work hard and well. Even in small places, cleaning lamps, polishing shoes, machine-stitching and such occupation may be carried on successfully. The only way to do is to provide yourself with the necessary tools and then call at every house in the town. You may only receive a few orders at first, but one piece of work well done will surely bring you two more. Don't despise small tilings until you are independent. then turn over the work you do not wish to some worthy girl who would be glad of it.

“Don't write to some person in Boston or New York to know If there is a market there for some work for which you think you are especially fitted, or which you think you do unusually well. In undertaking any new work there are always many details to be learned of which the beginner never thinks. There are avenues open in every city for the sale of everything grown or made, but with the best to select from there is but little opportunity of disposing of ordinary articles. If you study to satisfy the home market you will learn, slowly but surely, how to do the work in the best possible, manner and ascertain just what the purchasing public demands. It will be a preparatory school of work, and it is better to graduate from it before attempting anything higher.

Two men livtjf” in St. Helena who were born respectively in 1708 and 1802 are not the only persons now living who have seen Napoleon the Great. Thomas De Moleyhs, who was for many years County Court Judge of Kilkenny, who was called to the Irish bar in 1831, and appointed a Queen's Counsel in 1855, served in bis early boyhood in the royal navy. Mr. De Moieyns was a midshipman on board the Bellerophon when Nni>olcon, on July 15, 1815. after ‘'the hundred days,” placed himself under the flag of his country and was received on board the Bellerophon.

A man who wondered how the towtat got into the corkscrew found, of course, that iit was put there by machinery, and. he learned also that such Improvements have been made In this country in recent years in the manufacture of corkscrews that, whereas formerly the greater part of the corkscrews used here were Imported from Europe, now nearly all the corkscrews used dn this country are made here, and the production amounts to millions annually, for there are few articles of more ooummom use. There is now made a corkscrew with the screw part of steel wire and the handle of wood, a very respectable sort of a corkscrew, that Is produced so cheaply that it can be sold at retail for live cents, with a very fair margin of profit. Corkscrews run from that up in price. There are now soldi grea t numbers of corkscrews that are made, handle and all, of a single piece of steel wire. There is a tiny little corkscrew that Is put up with patent medicines, a corkscrew with every bottle. This sort of wire corkscrew has for a handle a little loop or hoop just big enough to put a finger through. It Is a littfte bit of a corkscrew, but perfectly effective for the use for which it is Intended. If one bought a dozen bottles of a preparation with which such corkscrews are pecked he would get a dozen corkscrews, but he need not fear that he Is getting more than his share, or that he ought to return some of them, for they are produced at a cost that seems marvelously small, even when the wonderful results obtained by the aid of machinery are taken Into account. There is a corkscrew that is attached to a ®f>oon. With such a spooar there is never any trouble about getting the cork out of the medicine bottle. There are various kinds of pocket corkscrews, including the folding corkscrews, in which the screw part, turning on a pivot, turn* back into a triangular-shaped handle. There is also a folding corkscrew whose handle, made In two parts, folds down on either side over the screw. There are corkscrews whose screw part, when not In use, is. screwed Into a tube, which, passed through an eye at the upper end of the screw, serves a® a handle when the corkscrew Is used.

An ingenious stage waterfall devised by M. Galhardt has attracted attention at the Paris opera halls. It is made of tulle stretched on frames imitating the curves of a fall. Behind It little streams of water are discharged through perforated pipes against a metal plate, so as to throw a spray upon the tulle. When the .electric light is played on this the effect Is magical.

Politicians are even now weighing the possibilities involved in the next presidential election. The papers are full of predictions as to the future which are somewhat too self-confident. But it is safe to say that a systematic course of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters will renew health in the bilious, rheumatic or nervous.

A dispute about precedence once arose upon a circuit between a bishop and a judge; and after some altercation the latter thought he should quite confound his opponent by quoting the tallowing passage: “For on these two hang all the law and the prophets.” “Do you not see,” said the judge, in triumph, “that even In this passage we are mentioned first?” “I grant you,” replied the hlshop; “you hang first.”

On the Education of Lions.

When lions were still numerous and easily observed In southern Africa .they were sometimes seen Instructing one another in voluntary gymnastics, and practicing their leaps, making a bush play the part of the absent game. Moffat tells the story of a lion which had missed a zebra by miscalculating the distance, repeating the jump several times for his own instruction; two of his comrades coming upon him while he was engaged in the exercise, lie led them around the rock to show them how matters stood, and then, returning to the starting point, completed the lesson by making a final leap, file aniUials kept roaring during the whole of the curious scene, “talking together,” as the natives who watched them said. By the aid of individual training of this kind, industrial animals become npter as they grow older; old birds, for instance, constructing more artistic nests than young ones, and little mammals like mice becoming more adroit with age. Yet, however ancient in the life of the species these acquisitions may lie, they have not the solidify of primordial instincts, and are lost rapidly, if not used.—Popular Science Monthly.
