It la quite Interesting to look
through the lettera received from the
American* who have aettlod In \Ve*t-
rm Canada during the past few years,
•nd considering the largo number It
U surprising bow few there aro who
bavo not succeeded. An extract from
a letter written by Mr. Geo. M.. Oris*
»old of Hod Deer, Alta., formerly of
Grover, Montuna, written on tho 2nd
nf January la as follows:
'*1 am located 1*4 miles from a
beautiful lake 10 miles long, where
there is church, school, 3 stores,
creamery and two postoffices. The
frio stock, both cattlo (cows and
ulcers) horses, hogs and sheep aro
rolling fat, grazing In pasturo today.
Just a little snow, hardly enough for
good sleighing, as wc just had a Chi-
nook which has melted tho roads and
laid bare the fields and pasture. Thero
ere fine wheat, oats, barley and flax
lalsed here, also winter wheat and
timothy hay for export to British Co-
lumbia. This Is a mixed farming
and dairy country. This is tho right
lime to get a foothold In tho Canadian
West, as it was some years ago in the
Fatted Slates. We are free from
wind gumbo and alkali here and have*
fine, clear soft well and spring water
nf a depth of from 5 to 25 feet, and
lots of open overflowing springs."
Telegraphic advices from Medicine.
Hat say that seeding has commenced
at Medicine lfat, I^cthbridge and other
points. At the former place the tem-
perature moderated gradually until on
the 19th tho maximum was 45 and the
minimum 26. Thermometer readings;
feincc then have been as follows:-
20th, 47 and 38; 21st, 54 and 34; 22nd.
D6 and 39; 23rd, 48 and 40; 24th, 48
nnd 2G.
During the last few days In Feb-'
ru ary considerable ploughing was
done near Lethbridge. P. A. Pulley,
r, recent arrival from Montana!
ploughed and harrowed fifteen acres,
i'.nd E. Lai i borl y about the same,
amount. Rev. Coulter White has also;
been harrowing his farm. All report
the ground frost freo and in excellent
condition. Bricklaying has also begun
in town. At Hartney further east on
tho 25th February the sun was warm
and bright, wheeled carriages v/m
in use and the plowed fields look as if
they are ready for tho press drills:
There is every appearance that sprint
has arrived, but farmers do noc wis]

Mamma’s Company Voice.
"Who 1* that in the parlor. NMHe?”
asked the little sister.
"Nobody but mamma and Fred," re-
plied Nellie.
“Oh, yes, there must be someono
else,” rejoined the little girl, “for
mamma has her company voice on.”
It was a little squib under the head-
ing of “Fun,” which a member of the
family read aloud from the paper.
Tho circle about the table who heard
it smiled and one said, “That’s a good
joke.” But a more thoughtful mem-
ber turned it over in her mind. She
was tho mother, and she admitted to
herself that it was more than a joke—
that in many instances it was sober
truth. It came home to her heart with
great significance, for she acknowl-
edged to herself that "the company
voice” was entirely too often put on
when in the presence of those outside
the home circle. We wish to appear
at our best before those whose good
opinions we desire to gain. But with
those who love us how often we speak
in irritable, harsh, quick tones.
Tell

Song.
me not, tell me never, that summer
is over!
That cold lie the poppies, that dead
the clover!
The gold of my heart’s bloom can never
grow sere,
For love changeth not with the change
of the year!
Tell me not. tell me never, that winter
can cover
With snows all the summer-warm world
of a lover!
In my heart with each sun shall new
blossoms appear,
Since love changeth not with the change
of the year!
Tell me not, tell me never, that time can
dissever,
In summer or winter, our twin hearts
forever!
So, each winter’s summer, each season
most dear.
While love changeth not with the
change of the year!

Buy on Credit in Chine.
Foreigners in China buy nearlt
everything on credit, giving signed
“chits” for every purchase, the reasor
being their unwillingness to load
themselves down with silver or native
coin, while paper money fluctuates toe

Why He Got Mad.
“I admire a first-class idiot as well
as any one,” remarked Hawkins on
his first trip down town after a six
weeks’ illness, “but some people suit
me too well.”
Why, what’s the trouble?” asked
the druggist, as he wrapped up a bot-
tle of tonic for the invalid.
“Well, you know I haven’t been out
of the house for nearly two months
until three days ago, when I managed
to get down to the front gate for a
little fresh air.” said the sick man
as he picked up the bottle, “and
while I was standing there a neighbor
came along and exclaimed: “Why
hello, old chap! Been away, haven't
you.' Have a good time? You are
lookirg well!’ Now, say. r asn*t that
enough la freckle the disposition of
