A Washington Canneryman
Says There'll be a Market
for B. 0.'s Product
Win. E. Scott, deputy ministerfof
agriculture, hits received the following letter from Senator Faulbamus,
president of tbe Puyallup ___. Sumner
Fruit Growers' association. Tbe information and advice contained
therein will tw of considerable benefit to the different canneries operating in the province:
"Mr. Winslow called on me this
morning, and in talking over tbe
fruit industry be advised me that
same of your fruit canners are experiencing some difficulty in finding
markets for their 1912 pack of apples, rhubard. beans and sucb other,
producte as were put up in the canneries, lt occurs to me that if
these gentlemen can handle themselves a little wbile longer tbey will
experience very little difficulty in
finding a market for tbeir surplus
stock.
"In our own case we inventoried
•166,000 worth, mostly blackberries,
apples, squash, beans and similar
products, January 1, 1913, but I
am pleased to advise at the present
time every single can of this stock
has been sold.
* "Last year tbe apple crop was so
extremely heavy in every apple
growing community in the world
that tbe price of fresh apples, as you
know, continued extremely low for
the entire season, with tbe result
that pies were made of fresh apples
instead nf any kind of canned products. In addition to this, apple
sauce and everything else lhal apples could he used for was used as a
substitute for canned goods
"Aa ynu are aware, the present
apple crop is just as much short as
the apple crop of 1912 was long.
This will entirely reverse things. Instead of buying fresh apples for pie
making and similar uses, it will he
necessary for the bakers and hotel
people and other people who use
this i-lars nf fruits to depend upon
tne ciiiinid goods inrtead of tl e
fresh
*'I believe thst your fri. nils in
British Cnliitnliia will experience no
difficulty in inil.i uling every can of
fruit nr vegetables lhat they are now
carrying, provided that it was put
up in Bond shape and will continue
in marketing condition for six
months lunger I know that this is
the experience with all of our canners except in rare instances where
tbe goods are not packed properly.
"If there are any of your fruit
glowers' associations who need help
or encouragement, I believe it
would be a goud idea to write tn
them such information as this letter contains. In some instances
you will find that such organizations
have borrowed money from eome of
the banks, and if tbe bankers understood tbe situation as it really
exists I sm satisfied tbat tbey would
extend such credit as is required to
tide things along.
"Sbould any of your friends de |
sire to offer your canned goods on!
this side of the line, it occurs to me
that the J. M. Paver eompany, of
Chicago, III., who are extensive
dealers, might be able to post you
as to the probability of marketing
in that territory, and post you as to
prices."
The Eiquor Traffic
Editor Qrand Forks Sun.
In view of it being "World's Temperance Sunday" on November 8,
the following from Sir Victor Htirse-
ley, the eminent English physician,
will be of interest to tbe teachers
and their classes. He says: "The
question of total abstinence is socio-
ogical and economic, and oot only
one of personal betterment; drink is
undoubtedly the commonest cause
of unhappiness, pauperism aod
sickness. An increase of drinking
in Belgium has been accompanied
by an equally rapid inceease in the
number of paupers, lunatics and
suicides, wbile in .Sweden a decrease
in drinking bas been accompanied
by a striking decrease in pauperism,
lunacy and suicide." In a recent
luncheon address this same eminent
surgeon declared tbat tbe medical
profession in England is now hostile
in its attitude toward alcohol.
"They have found out wbat alcohol's value is as a drug, »nd that is,
in my opinion .at any rate, practically nil." When he was a student,
alcohol was the traditional remedy
in surgery in blood poisoning, and
for infectious diseases like pneu
monia. It is no longer so used. In
1862 the expenditure on milk in the
London hospitals was fl 5.000 a
year; on alcohol $40,*000 a year.
Twenty years later tbe expenditure
for milk and alcohol were equal.
About that time antiseptic surgery
became general, and in 1902 tbe expenditure for alcohol was reduced to
115,000. The lowest death rate ie
in the London Temperance hospital, where alcholic liquors and medicines are not used. The custom is
rapidly dying out in tbe other hospitals. Philaurious.

Types of Canadian Girl
Tha Western girl i-osenibles Uie
(Vild rose of tlie open liel.l; the Biib'.-
ern girl is not a hot house bloom, bui
she Is 'pruned and milted to a stuld
perfection you miss (and bless Heaven for) when you meet Uie Western
girl. The latter (says n writer In
Canada), Is a charming Diana; limb
free, wearing an air of calm assurance—un unaffected air it is—riding
to hounds, golfing, tennis, racquet
swinging as she passes over the
prairie trails, or, under emergency,
sitting Uie binder in the grain field,
and this Just as gracefully aB sbe sits
at the piano in Ihe drawing room. The
western girl goeB to public school,
graduating in tbe ologles and the domestic arts at. the same time. She
studies French and drawing; painting and music are not 'fad«' with her;
ahe will discuss Browning and Shakespeare with you while engaged in
mending the household linen, and that
'with neither an Insipid nor yet an inane air,
She holds sound opinions on all
subjects, yet she never thinks of in
trading herself or hor opinions into
public life.
She controls the voter, not the
vote!
Trained to wall upon herself, she
possesses the great virtue of adaptability, and lf she becomes a wage-
earner (as she usually does) you
find her accepting thc responsibilities
attached to whatever she takes in
hand; she feels no shame In her
work, she rather dignifies whatever
she undertakes. Accomplishments to
the western girl have real meaning;
she accomplishes things; she does
not dabble ln art, but she becomes
an adept in art.
The Eastern girl ls somewhat proud
sb Bhe is pensive; but like her western sister she Is wholesome ln heart
and mind. She, too, Is the embodiment of mental and physical strength
verging (her critics say) at times
upon the boisterous. The chiet character of both types is cheerfulness,
and this, combined with humor, gives
both the charm they are allowed to
possess.
In Uie sports la belle Ouiiiidienne
holds the records, and all the while
she Is domesticated to high degree.
She has so many distinguishing characteristics that, separating them, you
become bewildered; you Bee her in
many lights, many moods, but all combining to make her what she Is—
clever, capable and kind.
Discovery of Ancient Coins
An Italian farmer has made a Valuable archaeological find in a Held
near, l.esi. He discovered an earthenware vase containing 5.300 silver
coins of the Roman republican period.
The vase weighs about BO pounds.
Most of the coins are rare specimens
and are in an admirable stale of preservation. The field Is owned by
Count lloiiorotl, who has renounced
his right to a claim of one-half of tbe
value of the discovery and has allowed Prof. Dalloso to remove the coins
to the museum at Ancona for Identification. Only one-half of them have
been examined as yet, but their value
to estimated at more than $1,000,000.
The Government gaa've the farmer

Youngest Volcanoes In B.C.
Professor Burw.ish, who haB been
at work on the geology cf British Columbia for several years, haB return
ed from an esamlnattion of Garibaldi,
which may have the effect of placing
that splendid mountain and some
of its neighbors in the poslilo.. of being the youngest voleanos ln the province. He went up to the recent summit camp of the B.C. Mountaineering
Club, and accompanied ty the president. Mr. W. J. Gray, made a careful
study of the district. He has found
that Garibaldi, Red Mountain and another smaller volcano jiave been built
upon a glaciated surface about 6000
feet high. None of the hreo volcanoes bears the marks of glaclation, except Insofar as tbelr own homegrown
glaciers have been able to modify
their outlines In some very slight degree. But the work of such local
glaciers requires very careful looking
for; whereas the platform from which
the volcanic piles stand up has been
glaciated so Intensely that even the
inexperienced eye can recognize lt.
The lava streams which flowed from
the volcanoes, and the bei* of stuff
which were formed by the accumulation ot the fragmentary material
blown out of their crates during eruption, are all to be traced, cold, black,
and forbidding, lying upon the gently
undulating surface of the glaciated
plateau.
Professor Bui-wash believes the evidence* he has obtained sufficient to
Move tbat these volcanoes came into
existence during thle second sta,;e of
the glacial epoch. He regards lt as
very doubtful, however, If the volcanic action had begun whe.t the flrst
stage of the glacial epoch was on. The
general moulding of the platform on
which Garibaldi stands was done during that earlier stage, when Ihe Ice
spread far and piled high.
These are very Important results.
Something of the geological interest
ot the district was recognized by the
members ot the Mountaineering Club
during the summer camps. The photographs which appeared in the
Northern Cort-illerun, together wiUi
the descriptive notes of Messrs Gray
and Samson, allowed the desirability
ot having an examination made by a
geological expert. Now that this has
been done an Important additional
Interest haB been given 1o the Alpine
hinterland of Vancouver.
Four Months Without Water
Sheep on the Nebo National forest,
IHah, go four aud a half months without water except tor su'cli moisture as
they get from the dew and the juices
of forage plants. Crazing sheep on
a range entirely destitute of water is
a recent Innovation due to the increasing demand for forage and effort
of the forest office to find a place on
the forest ranges for all the Btock that
can be safely admitted. The area on
the Nebo which has now proved usable by sheep is high and rocky, a portion of It being above timber line, and
It ban neither springs nor streams ot
sullieient size or accessibility to be
used for Btock watering purposes. The
griming season lasts from June 15 to
October ill, and during this period of
four and a half months the animals
do not get a drink.
Under such conditions, however, the
sheep have done extremely well, and
laBt year's lamb from this range had
an average weight at the close of the
season of 68 pounds on the Chicago
market, which was rather above the
normal weight from that vicinity.
In one area on the Targhee forest
in Idaho sheep get w.-.tei- only twice
during the four months summer grassing seasan. There Is no water on the
range but the sheep ure driven to a
nearby stream lower down the mountainside. Lambs from this range
weighed 65 pounds on the Chicago
market

success, and railway mall service was
Inaugurated that year on several of
thc Important railway lines and was
gradually extended all over thte United Slates, and adopted In other countries. In 1874 the American railway
mall system was thoroughly organized
on a permanent basis, with eight territorial divisions, each in charge of
a superintendent subordinate to a
general chief r.t Washington. Tho service was among the first to ndopt a
modern clnsslfled civil service, appointment ot railway mail clerks having always been madj for a probationary period, permanent employ-
ment being conditioned on satisfactory service and conduct, and removal based on good cause only. The
service bas been gradually Increased
and new divisions organized, and Is
now operated on practically every

Nuts, made cf whole wheat and barley by long baking aud actlca of diastase ln the barley vhlch changes Ihe
starch Into a most digestible sugar.
The phosphates also, placed up under the outer-coat ot the wheat, are Included lu Grape-Nuts, but are lacking
In white flout because the outer coat
of the wheat darkens Die flour and Is
left out by the miller. These natural
phosphates are necessary lo the well-
balanced building of muscles, brain
and nerve cells.

they go line together.
"For many yearB before I began to
eat GrapeNuts, I could not say that I
enjoyed life or knew what It was to be
able to say 'I am well.' I suffered
greatly with constipation, but now my
habits arc as regular as ever In my

A WONDERFUL^ DISCOVERY
An eminent, tcientlst the other day,
gave his opinion that the most wonderful discovery of recent years waa
the discovery of Zam-Buk. Just think!
As soon as a single thin layer of Zam-
Buk ls applied to a wound or a sore,
such injury Is Insured against blood
poison! Not one species of microbe
has been found tlmt Zam-Buk does not
kill!
Then again. As noon, as Zam-Buk Is
applied to a sore, or a cut, or to skin
disease, it stops the smarting. That Is
why children are such friends ot Zam-
Buk. They care nothing fer the Bcl-
ence of the thing. All they know ls
that Zam-Buk stops their pain. Mothers Bhould never forget this.
Again. As soon as Zam-Buk ls applied to a wound or to u diseased
part, the cells beneath the skin's surface are so stimulated that new
healthy tlssitj Is quickly formed. This
forming of fresh healthy tissue from
below Is Zam-Buk's secret of healing.
The tlBsue thus tormed Is worked up
to the Burlace eud literally casts oft
the diseased tissue above it. This
Is why Zam-Buk cures are permanent.
Only the other day Mr. Marsh, of
101 Delorlmier Ave., Montreal, called
upon the Zam-Buk Co. and told them
that for over twenty-five years he had
been a martyr to eczema. His Itands
were at one time so covered with 3ores
that he had to sleep ln gloves. Four
years ago Zam-Buk was Introduced to
him, and ln a few months it cured
him. To-day—over three years after
his cure ot a disease he had for twenty-five years—he is still cured, and has
had no trace of any return of tthe eczema I

HOW TO TREAT
ALL SKW TROUBLE
Greasy Ointments No Use—Mutt
Be Cured Tbrough the Blood
It Is not. a good thing for people
with a tendency to iiave pimples and
a blotchy complexion to smear themselves with greasy ointments. In fact
they couldn't do anything worse, because the grease clogs thc pores of the
skin, making the disease worse. When
there ls an irritating rash a soothing
boracic wash may help allay the pain
of Itching, but of course It doesn't cure
the trouble. Skin complaints arise
from an impure condition of the blood
and will persist until the blood ls purified. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have
cured many cases of eczema nud skin
diseases hecauso they make new, rich
blood that drives out the Impurities,
clears ihe skin and Imparts a glow of
health. The following proof is offered. Mrs. l-'red Tremble, Gunter. Ont.,
says: "For more than a year I w,_s
steadily afflicted with salt rheum or
eczema. My hands were so sore that
1 could not put them In water without
the skin cracking open. I tried all
Boris of ointments recommended for
the trouble, but they did not do me a
particle of good. I was told Dr. Williams' l'lnk Pills would cure the
trouble, and began taking them. I
took the PIUs Btendlly for six or eight
weeks and thoy completely cured the
trouble This was several years ago
and I have never I.ceil bothered with
lt since."

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 191S
It is an old saying that if
you give a person rope enough
he will hang himself. This
appears to be the piesent predicament of the provincial
government. It has had too
much rope, and it is now beginning to feel the effects of
strangulation. Its method of
subsidizing its party organs
has brought an honorable profession into disrepute. The result is, all Tory papers in the
province are discredited. The
people read them and smile.
They know that their news
pages are e lited with a view of
reflecting credit on the administration, and that their
editorial praise is regulated
according to the patronage
which they receive. Instead
of making friends for the government, they are straining on
the rope which will strangle it
in the next provincial elections.
Newspaper writers iacking
a sufficient vocabulary to express their thoughts in English without resorting to slang
should spend the evenings at
home and study the dictionary.
Newspapers go into the homes
and form a large share of the
reading matter ofthe children,
. who should be kept way from
the flippant phrases of the
street until they have learned
to speak the king's English
correctly, and then they will
have no use lor the language
of the sporting world. Slang
is never nice. It is not hum
orous, although some people
think that it is.
What is news? A month
ago an item went the rounds
of the district press to the effect that steel on the Kettle
Valley line had b on laid tu
the summit between Midway
and Penticton. lhe steel has
not yet reached that point.
Last week some of the papers
The citizens of New York
have again clipped the claws
of the Tammany tiger. Tammany, in its most arrogant
sway, has never been as lavish
in squandering the taxpayers'
money as the British Columbia government. But the people o" this province have not
the courage to curb the government's generosity. Thre's
the difference.
The indications are that the
next provincial election will
be a battle between the taxpayers and the government
employees.
The Calgary Herald, no
doubt in the light of what has
occurred in the field of real
estate speculation, is busy
warning the whole world to
beware of investments in oil
"propositions" in the prov?
ince of Alberta. Our contemporary urges outside investors
to wait until the value of the
oil fields has been proven.
The advice of the Herald is
sound, and it is to be congratulated qn its frankness. Sufficient harm has been done
already in the money markets
by the conduet of a few "wildcatters."—Victoria Times.
There is no necessity for
going to Mexico to see a Mexican election. Under the Conservatives we find them coming very near home, so near,
in fact* that the ruling clique
who have seized the emblems
of authority at the capital pick
out candidates from the de-
Eartmental offices for the road
osses to elect,—Victoria
Times.
Ulster is to have a provincial government. The only one
we remember in Canada was
organized by Louis Biel, and
everybody knows what hap-
paned to him.—Vancouver

Its tiny balance makes 18,000
vibrations an hour. Day and night,
year in and year out, this creditable gait it must keep up at almostl
unvarying speed. But no watch
made can do this without regular
care. Expert watchmakers say once
every 12 or IS months.
Equally important it is that a
specialist does the work. An inexperienced or incompetent workman 1
can do more harm in a few min
utes—often unwittingly—than anl
expert can undo in hours nf patient
effort.

A Kitchener Story
Lord Kitchener thinks that ina_-
rlage means the end of a soldier's career; in fact,, n soldier should be wedded to his profession. Some time
nso a very well known lady to whom
he had expounded this view retorted
by asking lilm a question.
If the officers of the army today
are not to marry, said she where are
you to lind the officers for tiie army
tomorrow?
And Lord Kitchener, remembering
that officers are usually the sons of
officers was silenced.

NEVER OUT FOR MONEY.
Pointa Out That Swindling Advertise*

By M. QUAD.
CCoryrliht, ini, bv Aaaoelatea* Literary
Freee.)
WD have often bcen asked
why we started the publication of the Kicker, anl
we have bad but one answer to give—for our health's sake.
We return_tbe same answer wben ask-
od wby we continue Its publication.
We bave never been out for tbs
money nnd never sball be. From our
childhood up to date we bave always
had a fatherly Interest In tbe public,
and tbat feeling bas grown wltb tbe
passing of yeara. As an editor we can
protect tbe public far more than we
could If owning nud running a sawmill.
No swindling advertisements bave
ever sppeared In the Kicker, and
■one ever will. Wo personally own
■even mountains, 40,000 acres of desert
land and thirty-nlno caverns and
could swindle all New Englnnd, but we
bave steadfastly refused to unload on
a confiding public. They trust us and
arc never deceived.
Not only ns innyor. but ns editor
of lhe Kicker-! (circulation almost
8,000.000,000 weekly), we aim to keep
* fnlherly eye on Glveadam Gulch Itself. About onco every two months
we mnke n lour of tbe town and a gen-
ernl cleaning up of things tbat
ebouldn't be.
We do this from goodness of beart
alone nnd not because wo aspire to bs
I dictator. We don't wnnt to be pointed out ns (lie big "It" We haven't tbo
slightest idea that we own the town
or that things have got to go ns we
decree. Tbose who charge ns otherwise do ns a great Injustice.
At au early bour last Wednesday
mornlug we buckled on our gnus nnd
went bunting for an Individual named
Idnho Sam. He nrrlyed here four weeks
•go nnd announced that he wns n holy
terror, and he bas since made a nuisance of himself. We found him nfter
balf an hour's search and tendered blm
his choice between hitting tbe trail and
hanging. Fie started to argue the mat
ter, but we got tbe drop on blm and
as a result the midday sun sbone down
en blm as he rested on tbe far side of
Wolf creek.
Our next visit of state wns paid to
Mr. C. I. Flint, attorney nt law. Mr.
■ Flint Is of that clnss called shysters.
Ho was disbarred In Chicago and came
ont bere to make n fresh stnrt. Ilia
doings have been unsavory, ami ho ban
neglected to take advantage of llttlo
hints thrown out by ns from time to

HUDSON BAY ESKIMOS.
English Missionary Tells of Peoplt
Among Whom He Worked.
A great work is being done far up
on the northeast shores of Hudson
Bay in converting the wandering Indians and Eskimos who inhabit lhat
desolate region to Christianity. A devoted little band of three or foul
Christian pioneers is stationed there,
and a member of that "Arctic mis-
sion," who is in England ior a short
"leave," gave some of his experiences
ol the country and people.
"I am stationed at a tiny settlemenT
on Great Whale River," Baid the Rev
W. G. Walton, "and the 'town' consists oi two houses and a 'store.' I
live at one oi the houses with a Hud
son Bay trader. We get two mails a
year out there, but the newspaper!
only visit us once, so that you can
imagine our expectation when newspaper day comes round. At the end
oi August every year a ship calls, and
we have to be very careful to remember to order everything we want, because il we forgot anything we should
have lo wait another year. The Eskimos never wash themselves.
"I have often seen an Eskimo wo
man washing her young children like
a cat does a kitten—by licking them
all over. Their only means of livelihood lies in catching seals. They are
always on the lookout for seal holes
in the ice. They eat the blubber,
that is, the fat of the seal, and clothe
themselves or at any rate make theii
trousers out oi sealskin. It is very
cold—15 degrees below zero as a rule—
and we Europeans have to keep roaring tires going in every room of oui
house.
"The people don't live in villages,
but separately in families, so as tc
have as wide a field for hunting at
possible. They are a very revengeful
people. A short while ago an Eskimo
was out hunting, and saw a black dot
in the distance on the ice. On ap
proaching he made certain that it was
a seal just protruding from a seal hole
He iired and hit it, but when lie got
up to it he found that he had accidentally shot a man. He called on
the widow, said how sorry lie was.
and, promising lo help the woman,
asked for forgiveness. The son of tht
dead man entered, and. when he
heard, rushed off and killed all thf
unfortunate hunter's family in revenge. In retaliation the hunter killed all the dead man's family, and so
the ieud began. When we were informed of this and came to investigate
we found that tliere was only one man
surviving out of two families oi about
seventeen persons. We could do nothing but lecture the survivor.
"Thoy were terribly lawless until
we came, and even now when in the
grip of starvation commit the most
awful deeds. Lately a mother, ravaged terribly by hunger, went to the
length of eating her two children.
Another killed his wife and lived on
her, and when she had been eaten
up tried to murder three other men's
children. Luckily he was prevented.
There are no native laws. They don't
steal, but think nothing of murder.
When they are 'put out-,' as the saying goes, they must take a life. They
don't mind whom they kill when tliey
are angry as long as they kill someone. There is no sort of punishment
for the crime. They are very fond ol
singing, and their favorite or only
game is connected therewith. A piece
of seal bone, with a little hole in it,
is suspended Irom the 'roof.' They
all sit round the 'room,' and each
tries to throw an arrow into the hole.
He who succeeds h*s to sing a song,
but he who sings most songs wins the
game. They get enormously enthusiastic over this pastime. They have
large families, and the race would increase tremendously were it not fur
accidents and murders. They are,
Jiowever, very impressed by the Christian creed, and we are gradually get
ting them to change their ways."

Ia spite of the alliance that exists between England and Japan, Rt. lion. Andrew Fishor, until a few days ago premier of the commonwealth of Australia,
declares himself emphatically for Japanese oxelnsion. He is considered to
voice the views of au overwhelming majority of the views of the people of

"The newer countries," says Mr.

It was entered into inadvisedly, at least
oa England's part, for its working out
must have made England take sides
with Japan as against some of tko white
nations, Russia, Oermany, France ot
Portugal, over eastern affairs.
'•I do not regard the Japanese as a
desirable people to have in large numbers in a white man's country. Even
with the franchise — which they will
never obtain in Australia—they would
form elements separate aad distinct
from the rest of tne community.
" A few years ago it wos believed by
moit people that tho vast sections ot
land in tne new countries would never
be taken up tor settlement. Yet land
is almost at a premium to-day and the
time is probably not far distant when
lho last portions of tho publio domain
will be thrown open to the people.
"Australia is learning, and we do not
propose to lightly or lavishly beitow our
public lands."
Austrolia has provided for future contingencies by the buiiding of a navy
and the adoptioa of compulsory military service. Every Australian boy
from 1* years of ago is a senior cadet
and must do 16 days' drill annually. At
18 he is moved up into the citizen army
end from then until he is 20 he must
do 1(1 days nanually, If infantry or
horse, and 25 days in case of artillery
or engineers. There are 178,000 senior
cadets registered throughout Australia.

18,000, wero moved up into the adult
ranks. Military observers have exprett-
oct astonislimeiit at the energ- aad ability of the new soldiors.
The Empire's Resources.
Only hard llgurot can adequately tell
the story of the resources of the British Empiro. ia the production of staple
articles that part of the world under
our flog has somo amazing facts to un-
fold. Tako the year 1911, for example.
During that, year staple products to the
following value! were produced within
tho British Empire: Coul, £125,800,000;
diamonds, £8,21)9,000; gold, £55,000,000;
lilver, £4,868,000.
Turning to miantities from mere cash
values, the British Empire produces of
wheat, 788,700,000 bushels; of wine,
0 500,000 gallons; of tea, 455,000,000
lbs.; snd of cotton, 1,279,016,000 lbs.
All our Overseas Dominions contribute
their quota to the above amezing totals,
And the figures of our smaller Colonies,
such at Newfoundland, give one the
idea that such Dominions are, after all,
sot quite to small as one would imagiae,

KING OF COLORS
Red Has More Meaning and Greater
Effect Than /.ny Other Hue
Bed has a greater effect upon both
man and the lower animals than any
otbor color. It is, ln fact, the king
of colors, according to Profossor W.
Pcabody Bartlett.
Perhaps, Bays Professor Bartlett, lf
our blood were green Instead ot red
we would bold green as the king of
colors, because blood ls life. The
sight of it stirs both man and tbe lower animals, and for that reason the color of it is the most effective of all
colors.
Every one knows the antipathy a
bull has to red, how he will bellow and
become blindly enraged at the sight of
it, but the bull Is by no means the
only animal tliat is affected by thle
color. Put a dog ln a kennel and
cover the end tbat opens to daylight
with a white cloth or a black cloth
and the dog will pay little attention
to it, but cover the opening wither
bright red cloth so that the daylight
comes through to the dog lr. a red
glow, and the dog will at once begin
to bark furiously.
Put a rooster in a dark bag or a
green or yellow bag and he will remain quiet, but put him in a bag of
thin red cloth, so that the light may
-thlue tbrough and show tbe color, and
the rooster will crow lustily. This is
not because he might thin!: the red
indicated sunrise, because roosters
will crow long before the first faint
tinge of color appears in the east.

Nervous Prostration of Three Years!
Standing Cured a Year ago by Dr.
Chase's Nerve Pood.
Anyone who knows the discouragement and despair which accompanies
the helplessness ,of nervous prostration will appreciate the gratitude felt
by the writer of this letter.
Mrs. H. C. Jones, Scotch Lake, C.B.,
writes: "I suffered from nervous prostration for nearly three years. I had
freojieat headaches, had no appetite
was troubled with my heart. After consulting two doctors without obtaining satisfactory results, I began
the use o. Dr. Chase's Nerve Food,
and was completely cured by this
treatment. It is nearly a year since I
was cured, and I want others to know
of this splendid medicine. I now attend to my Lousework with pleasure
and comfort, and am glad to have the
opportunity of recommending Dr.
Chase's Nerve Food."

How To Get Rid Of The Drink Habit
The IrrlatsUble craving which drives all drinking men on and ultimately
wrecks them physically, mentally and financially can be removed by tho
NEAL
Treatment ln three days. Tho Neal Treatment Is a safe, sure vegetable
remedy taken internally which eliminates all craving or desire for drink ana
removes all traces of alcoholism from the system. No hypodermic Injections are employed and no 111 after effects aro experienced.
Tho drink habit Is discouraging both to ths drinker and to the drinker s
family. Drinking men promise themselves that they wilt stop and often con-
Hclentlously try to do so but tlie craving ls stronger than the will power
to resist, and Invariably after ono or two attempts to stop Ihey begin.to drink
harder than ever. ..*__■.•__.*_____$»
Tho only hope for these men Is ln the Neal 'treatment.
If you are a drinking man you can visit one of *.be Neal Institutes una In
three days bs freed from the drink bablt and return to : our home free from
all desire for drink and complete master of yourself.
You can tak« the treatment at one of ths Neal Institutes and return home
In a fow days and your friends will scarcely have tlmo to note your absence.

"Of courso. Tbey praised each other's hats and dresses as tbey stood in

bnd treated each other to clam broth,
ice cream nnd candy and bad come
back in a taxi to end up in u swagger
way. When tho taxi eamo dashing up
tbere was a sensation on that block,
and^JBfty other women turned pale as
they looked out of tbelr windows."
"Vhas some rubber tires on der
wheels of dot taxi?" asked ihe grocer
as be seemed to call up a picture in his
mind's eye.
"Aye, there was, Mr. Wtisscrmnn."
replied the janitor. "Yes, thero was
rubber tires on every wheel—none
missing—and the cboffer was In uniform. For a minute or two I felt so
proud tbat I was determined to ask
McMurpliy to raise my salary to $20 a
month and fuel throwed in; but, nlas,
It wds the taxi that was our undoing."
"Did she broke down?"
"Not at all. Tbo ladles didn't bave
money enough to settle tbo fare, you
see, or they wanted to beat each other.
They could rcrape only 45 cents together, while the fare wns a dollnv and

Riving them his opinion of bilks. It
wasn't two minutes before tho whole

then tbere was fun. At first the three

"Ond so all vhas peace onco more?"

METAL OF THEJTANDAHDS.
Iridio- Platinum and It* Qualities of
Accuracy and Durability.
There are undoubtedly no product*
of human skill on which a greater degree of curo Is expended than the
standard of weight nud measure In uso
among the civilized nations. Two
things In particular must bo considered
-accuracy nnd durability. Nature doe*
not It Is contended, furnish any single
metal or mineral which exactly answers the requirements for a standard
of measure or weight that sball be as
nearly as posslhlo unalterable.
It ts held that the best substance yet
produced for this purposo is au alloy
of OO per cent platinum with 10 per
cent of Iridium. This ts called Irldlo-
plntlnum, and It Is tbe substance ot
which the metric standards prepared
by tbo International commission of
weights and monsurca are composed.
It Is hard, It Is less affected by heat
tbau any pure metal, It Is practically
nonoxldlzable, or not subject to rust
and It can be finely engraved. In fact
tbe lines on the standard meters ar*
hardly visible to th* naked eye, yet
they ar* smooth, even, sharp and accurate.
It I* uld tbat If onr civilization
should ever bs lost and relic* of It

Explorer Stefansion's Story *f Awkward Mishap In ths Arctic.
With a rifle and a sarBcient supply
ef ammunition, said Mr. Vilhjalmur
Stefansson, the Canadian explorer,
lecturing before the Royal Geographical Society in London, it iB possible
to go over the discovered lands of
the Arotio. In the course oi an interesting lecture Mr. Steiansson told
a remarkable story ot a five years'
sojourn in Arctio regions in search ot
a raoe of Eskimos who had never before aeen a white man, They lett
New York in April oi 1908, and the
small item that may upset the best-
laid plans was illustrated by the fact
that they were relying upon a supply
ot matches at Berschell Island on the
north Alaskan coast, and as these
were not forthcoming Dr. Anderson
had to retrace his steps a distance ot
1,900 miles to Barrent Point tor them.
"The whole expedition cost only $10,-
000," said Mr. Stefansson, and quite
halt that sum was spent in securing
matohes. From Herschell Island the
party pushed steadily eastward and
reached Cape Parry in the winter, and
here they found a whale, which eked
out tbeir provisions fortuitously.
"That whale," recalled the explorer
with a dry smile, "had been dead four
years." The Eskimos said so. It had
frozen in the winter, and had thawed
in the summer. It was after he had
leen two yeara in the Arctic that Steiansson set out upon his specific quest
for the Eskimos who, to use his own
Wrds, "had not been contaminated
(by missionaries or traders—(laughter)
—ot course, I mean from the scientific
point oi view." Alter a long pursuit
etelansson, standing on a hut, saw
the party he was searching ior seal
hunting about seven miles away, and
went after them. The Eskimos thought
they were spirits, and prepared to
defend themselves, but hi-i (Stefansion's) Eskimos discovered that they
spoke a similar dialect, and peace was
secured and introductions to all the
tribe—men, women and children—ensued. Intellectually these Eskimos
were on a level with tho inhabitants
of Great Britain 10,000 years ago. It
was on Victoria Island that he came
across the blonde Eskimos, whom he
preferred to call bronze ar copper.
They eyes were blue, their eyebrows
and whiskers fair, and the formation
oi the head and face akin to Europeans. Sir John Franklin had recorded that he saw one such Eskimo
in 1624 in the Coppermine district,
and Stefansson said he had come to
the conclusion lhat they were descendants ol an ancient race of settlers
who, originating in Scandinavia, had
traveled to Mackenzie by way of Iceland.
Gave Wolseley Raspberries.
Now that the British nation is lamenting the loss of one ot her greatest
warriors of modorn times, it is interesting to meet with people who accompanied Lord Wolseley on thc Red
River expedition, which made his
name a never-to-be-forgotten one to
the Canadian people.
Suoh an one is Alexander Ritchie,
of North Toronto. Mr. Ritchie, moreover, as far as he is aware, enjoyed
the unique distinction ol being the
youngest member oi tho volunteers,
who took part in repelling tho Fenian
Raid in 1866.
Mr. Ritchie was born at -Kingston
in 1850, and at the age of 14 he joined
the volunteers. When tho Fenian
Raid took place in* 1866, Mr. Ritchie,
then only 16 years old, was sent with
his regiment to Cornwall, where it
was stationed till the trouble blew
over.
In 1870 the Louis Riel rebellion,
which led to the Red River expedition, broke out, and Private Ritchie
was one oi the members ot the ex-
Sedition. Mr. Ritchie recalls liow one
ay, at a wild spot away beyond Lake
Buperior, ho and aome ol his com-
panions-in-arms were picking raspberries when Col. Wolseley rode up on
horseback. Mr. Itilchic, «ho had his
linen hat cover full of the berries,
ottered them to his commander, and
thc colonel helped himself.
Asked about tlie expedition, Mr.
Ritchie described liow they went by
boat to Prince Arthur's Landing, now
Port Arthur, but at that time an unsettled wilderness, and nf the arduous
Journey from thero to Fort Garry.
Specially prepared boats, manning
six oars and about ,10 teet long, wero
used for transporting the men and
supplies up'the Red River. The lir..t
boat set off on the 4th ot July and
lt waa tho 27th ot August before the
last boat reached Fort Garry,

Why, it was only a few yean ago
that one conld buy sll the musk-
rats in Canada for 6 cents apiece,
nnd they sold as low an 4 cents.
Winter and spring collections last
season brought 45 cents to 60 cents.
The entire collection of northern
mink could be bought at $1.50 and
$2.00 for No. 1 large prime skins.
But furs are a great deal higher
now. The cause of this tremendous
advance ia the keen competition
created by the well known circular
bouses. The trapper must be paid
for the hardship he endures, and if
Shubert made tbe market, furs
would be mucb higher, aa tbe average trapper does not get the collection he did years ago.
