He\nls then at liberty to call and offer his\nservices.

The system forced\nthe majority of farmers to sell their grain to the elevator owners\nat arbitrary rrici s, and oft times to submit to heavy, dockage and\nother annoyances, causing continual dissatisfaction. Now however\nthe distribution o! ..ars as fixed by the Oraln Act, and the use of the\nloading platform, provide facilities which enable the farmer- to secure\nsatisfactory treal.ra_.nt in tbe disposal ot his grain, and the highest\nmarket prices at time of sale. Every farmer therefore, should more\nand more endeavor to use the loading pli.tf'irm In shipping his grain\nto the terminal elevators. It ls the safeguard ot the farmers' freedom ln disposing of his grain to the best advantage for himself. If\nfarmers retrain from using the loading platform freely, lt might result in its being done away with, becaure railway companies and\nelevator owners are strongly opposed to 1'.. lt ls easy to understand why elevator people desire the leading platform abolished.\nThe railway neople on their part Bay it delays the loading of cars\nand helps to cause car shortage. This we know to be nonsense,\nbecause frequently after cars are loaded whether with grain, coal\nlumber or other merchandise, they are sidetracked for days aad even\nweeks Instead of ticlng promptly moved forward to destination. It\nis engine shortage and shortage of competent train men that mostly\ncauses grain Uockades on rajtways and not lack of cars. Let every\nfarmer therefore, do all he can to use t._e loading platform and become an independent shipper. In subsequent advertisements We\nwill state In detail the savings and oth\u00bbr advantages of direct loading into cars compared with loading through elevators.\nWe handle the farmers grain strictly on commission, make liberal\nadvances on can bills of lading, supervise the grading at time cars\nare Inspected, secure the highest prices at time of sale and make\nprompt returns when sold.

And In\nvarious parts of the world efforts aro\nnow bolng made to revive the use of\n'he left hand.\nJapan haB for many years been\nteaching two-handedness to the men\nof Its army and ln its Public schools.\nThe German Oovernment Is following\nJapan's example.

The linepver\nwhicli the Royal train ls to pass is\nquite as effectively guarded, though\nlo all appearance there is nobody\nthere.\nHealth Restored\nGained 29 Pounds\nMANY   YEARS   AN   INVALID\u2014UNTOLD  AGONY   FROM   HEAD-\n' ACHES\nDizziness, Sinking Spells and Excessive Weakness Disappear With\nUse of\nDR.

The fur ot the black fox, owing to Its rarity, has become exceedingly valuable, and the Commissioner of Agriculture for Prince Edward\nIsland states that a pair of live foxes\nwere sold recently for (25,000 and another pair for over (20,000. The\nprice of this Spring's pups was over\n$10,000 a (air and $5,000 a pair, while\na cash deposit varying from 10 to\n25 per cent la being paid for fox\ncubs that are due to be born In the\nSpring of 1913. Black fox farming\nas lt Is called, does not entail any\nconsiderable expense, the ranches consisting usually of an acre Of ground\nwith a steel wire enclosure about 50\nfeet square for two pairs, containing\nllttlo houses for the animals.  \u25a0\nMinard't Liniment Cures Diphtheria.\nA German- merchant, resident In\nMoscow, has left all his fortune, a-\nmounting to half a million, to all those\nof his employees who have served under htm ror Ave years or moro.

The oilier day,\nfor instance, a notorious pickpocket\nin Paris robbed a music hall singer\not her handbag, and sent her a neat-\nly*worded letter ol apology the next\nday.\nA gentleman whose pocket was picked ot a purse containing money ami\ntwo railway tickets in Blackpool not\nInng ago was astonished a lew (lays\nafterwards tn receive the purse nnd\nthai railway ticket* back by post.

Here is the money to pay\nfor the repair.\" -Needless t'l say, it\ncost much more than ten cents tu repair the broken window, and the loss\nof even one ring would have heen\nmore to the jeweller than a smashed\nwindow; but the criminal kink in the\nburglars' nature did not enable Ihem\nto realize this* and their one thought\non departing was liow they could be\npolite to their victim.\nThe innate chivalry of one burglar\nonce induced him to leave a wealthy\nman's house without stealing as much\nas a cent. One night, during the\nabsence ol tho master of the liousa,\nhis wife was awakened by hearing\nfootsteps in the hall. On going out to\nsee who it was, she was confronted\nby a desperate-looking man, who held\na revolver pointed towards Iter, and\nsaid: \"Make no-noise, or you will\nmeet with harm.   Are you alone'r\"\nThe frightened lady replied lhat she\nwas nlone, with the exception of her\ntwo little children, who were then\nfast asleep, and she gave tlle burglar\npermission to walk off with whatever\nlie pleased, provided that he would\nnot wake the little ones 'olid thus\nfrighten them.\nSomething, perhaps the remembrance of his own childhood's days,\nseemed to touch the man's heart.\n\"All right,\" lie replied, \"I wouldn't\nfrighten the kiddies for th* world.\"\nAnd to the amazement oi the trembling mother, he turned round, walked slowly down the stairs, and a moment later she heard the front door\nclose upon him.
