MEW ARRIVALS 18 CANADA
NEARLY 300.000 IS 1807.
ABOUT GIXTY THOUSAND FROM
THE UNITED STATES.
Now that it Is known that in the
year just clotted nearly sixty tliou-
L7rrm from the United States declared
their Intention of making tlieir homes
.'•) Canada, it might not he out of
I'djirf! to seiireh for some reasons that
would bring this ahnut. These people
are but following the example of the
fifty live or sixty thousand who did
the same thing the year previous, and
an almost equal number who the year
before that but followed the example
of the thousands of the year preced-
ing. An excellent climate, certain and
positive crops of grain of all kinds,
good markets for their produce, land
—and good land, too— at low prices,
easy terms of payment, (not forget-
ting the 160 acres of land given free
by the Government, particulars of
which the Canadian Government Agent
whose name appears elsewhere will
tell you about) and then the splendid
social conditions. The situation is
pretty well sized up by a writer in ono
of the magazines. Quoting from this
article, we find this: "Those of us
who made good in the States," inter-
jected another settler as if to con-
tinue the story of his neighbor, "have
had it easy from the start; a little
money Is a mighty good thing on com-
ing into a new country, nut those
who make an entry, or even buy lands
at low rates, are able to square things
in two or three seasons' crops. There
are hardships in building shanties,
and then with increasing prosperity
getting things into shape for better
l-onies. Hut affairs go much as in the
States. We have the largest liberty in
the world; there is more home rule in
the Provinces than in the several
states of the Republic. Taxes are
light and with only a few million peo-
ple west of Winnipeg we don't get in
each other's way. One's friends over
the line probably thought we would not
live through the winter; and while it
is cold, real cold, it Is free from the
moisture experienced in the east.
Schools are good as encouraged by
.he Government; the enterprising
American promoter and Yankee drum-
iner see to it that we take notice of
the latest improvements and best agri-
cultural machinery. Altogether we are
as near to-affairs as we would be on
our own farms in the States, Winni-
peg bears the same relation to us as
Chicago did at home; and Rdmonton
with the surrounding region advances,
as Omaha did in the days when we
were as young as the boys yonder.
We get together much as they did In
the granges over the border; the gov-
ernment has established experimental
schools of agriculture, and progress In
every line is stimulated. This is a
great region for grazing," we hear the
Calgary citizen continuing, "and then
with building elevators of wheat at
one dollar a bushel, many of us find
time to go over to the live stock ex-
hibition in Chicago or visit old friends
during the course of the winter.
Every man i3 taken for what he is
worth or for what he can raise; and
in this good air and on this fertile soil
we intend to show our old friends
that, we are made of the right stuff-
that. we are chips of the old block
who l/uh't up the American West."
HUBBY A GREAT HELP TO HER.
Wife Foi;nd Him a Careful Adviser as
to Woman's Dress.
It was pleasant to hear Mrs. Ham-
mond speaK of her husband's helpful-
ness In domestic matters, and also of
his great taste in regard to woman's
dress. • "Nobody could guess wfiat a
help ho Is to me in choosing my new
gowns each year," Mrs. Hammond
said, earnestly, "Without really hear-
ing our conversations."
A graceless cousin, to whom fell the
privilege of hearing one of these il-
luminating conversations, said that
ever after the peculiar fitness of Mr.
Hammond for the position of censor
remained in her mind.
"William," said Mrs. Hammond, on
thin memorable occasion, "I am unde-
cided between a green "and a brown
for my winter suit. Now I know what
you're thinking. You're thinking that
I said I was tired to death of brown,
and so I was, and am. You think I'd
better have the green."
"Still—" said Mr. Hammond.
"Certainly," said his wife. "It spots,
and is more apt to fade, perhaps, while
brown is a more trustworthy color."
Of course—" began Mr. Hammond.
"Yes, of course brown makes me
look older," assented his wife.
"But how—" ventured Mr. Ham-
mond. «•
"But how much smaller I look in
brown than in any other color," and
Mrs. Hammond nodded approval. "And
as I'm really gaining flesh all the
time, perhaps I'd better not consider
the green."
ou don't—" began the careful ad-
viser.
"I know I don't look stout to you,"
cried Mrs. Hammond, "but you'll feel
more at home with me in brown, and
so it's decided, just as I thought it
would be! When one has a husband
who is really interested, and takes
thought about one's dress," and she
turned a bright gaze to the visitor, "it
does simplify things so!"—Youth's
Companion.
Put End to Volubility.
Abernethy was supposed to influence
people by a brusqueness amounting to
absolute rudeness. It is related that
one day a very voluble lady took her
daughter, who was ill, to see him.
"Which of you two wants to consult
me?" said Abernethy.
"My daughter," replied the woman.
Abernethy then put a question to
the girl. Refore.she had a chance to
reply, her mother began a long story.
Abernethy told her to be quiet and re-
peated his question to the girl. A
second time the woman began a story,
and a second time he told her to be
quiet; then she interrupted him a third
time.
"Put your tongue out," he said to the
mother.
"Hut there's nothing the matter with
, me," she exclaimed.
"Mover mind, put your tongue out,"
he commanded.
Thoroughly overawed, the woman
: obeyed.
Now keep it out," said Abernethy,
and he proceeded to examine the girl.

One Dose in
Time, Saves (
Nine.
Many people persist in riding on the street cars, insufficiently protected by
clothing.
They start out perhaps in the heat of the day and do not feel the need of
wraps.
The rapid moving of the car cools the body unduly. When they hoard the
car perhaps they are slightly perspiring. When the body is in this condition it is
easily chilled. This is especially true when a person is sitting.
Beginning a street oar ride in the middle of the day and ending it in the
evening almost invariably requires extra wraps, but people do not observe these
precautions, hence they eaten cold.
Colds are very frequent in the Spring on this account, and as the Summer
advances, they do not decrease. During the Spring months, no one should
think of riding en the car without being provided with a wrap.
A cold caught in the Spring is liable to last through the entire Summer.
Great caution should be observed at this season against exposure to cold. During
the first few pleasant days of Spring, the liability of catching cold is great.
No wonder so many people acquire muscular rheumatism and catarrhal dis-
eases during this season.
However, in spite of the greatest precautions, colds will be caught.
At the appearance of the first symptom, Peruna should be taken according
to directions on the bottle, and continued until every symptom disappears.
Do not put it off. Do not waste time by taking other remedies. Begin at
once to take Peruna and continue taking it until you are positive that the cold
has entirely disappeared, iliis may save vou a long and perhaps serious illness
later on.
Bad Effects From Cold.
Mr. M. J. Deutsch, Secretary Building
Material Trades Council, 151 Washing-
ton St., Chicago, 111., writes:
"I have found your medicine to bo
unusually efficacious in getting rid of
bad effects from cold, and more espe-
cially in driving away all symptoms of
catarrh, with which 1 am frequently
troubled.
"The relief Peruna gives in catarrhal
troubles alone is well worth the price
per bottle. 1 have used the remedy for
several years now."
Spells of Coughing.
Mrs. C. E. Long, writes from Atwood,
Colorado, as follows:
"When I wrote you for advice mv
little three-year-old girl had a cough
that had been troubling her for four
months. She took cold easily, and
would wheeze and have spells of cough-
ing that would sometimes last for a
half hour.
"Now wecan never thank you enough
for the chance you have made in our
little one's health. Before she began
taking your Peruna she suffered every-
thing in the way of cough, colds and
croup, but now she has taken not quite
a bottle of Peruna,and is well and strong
as she has ever been in her life."
Pe-ru-na for Colds.
Mr. James Morrison, 63 East 16th St.,
Paterson, N. J., writes:
"I have given Peruna a fair trial, and
I find it to be just what you claim it
to be. I cannot praise it too highly. I
have used two bottles in my family for
colds, and everything imaginable. I
can safely say t hat your medicine is the
best I have ever used."j
Too Free Speech.
The allegations made during a trial
for "blasphemy" raises the whole ques-
tion of courtesy and kindliness In pub-
lic discussion. Ridicule and sarcasm
are permissible, and effective weapons
In debate, but mere vulgarity and
abuse or irreverence in dealing with
subjects that are sacred to others, are
not to be confounded with free speech
and cannot be tolerated.—Lloyd's
(Eng.) News.
'Nails."
"Nails are a mighty good thing—
particularly finger nails—but I don't
beiieve they were Intended solely for
scratching—though I used mine large-
ly for that purpose for several years.
I was sorely affected and had it to do.
One application of Hunt's Cure, how-
ever, relieved my itch and less than a
box cured mo entirely."
