plunged over a live-foot embankment.
They were follower by two baggage

Pullman sleeeper.
While passengers in the cars were
struggling to escape from the debris,

tinder. The three people who lost
theft lives were badly burned, acores

David Siegel of Cleveland, O.. was

burned within a few feet of him. He
instructed the rescuers to carry
water from the tank of Ihe engine
and put out the fire nearest hi3
bed, for the itching was dreadful. He
would irritate spots by scratching
with his nails and that only made
them worse. A doctor treated him
and we tried almost everything, but
the eczema uecmed to spread. It
started in a small place on the lower
extremities and spread for two years
until it very nearly covered the back
part of his leg to the knee.

SILHOUETTES OF
WESTERN CANADA
The man from Iowa began to talk
land before the train was well out of
the C. N. R. depot in Winnipeg. The
talk began In rather wide circles. The
rush to the land, the bumper crop, the
system of summer fallowing pursued
in the semi-arid districts, were all
discussed, and then, with a sort of
apologetic smile, the Iowa man said:
"I'm a bit interested in this country
myself. Some of the men down home
got a few sections up here along this
line, and I'm going to have a look at
them. Never been up in Canada be-
fore"— (it is curious how these mid-
western Americans pronounce the
name of the Dominion as if it was
"Can'dy")—"but if it looks good we
will be up to stay next fall."
"You see, it's like this," said the
man from Iowa—quite manifestly con-
tinuing an argument that had been go-
ing on in his mind for some time.
"Hack in our State land has become
dear. Anybody wanting to sell can
get $70 or $S0 an acre for it, and
every farm that's offered is snapped
up. In Saskatchewan we have just as
good laud that cost us $11 and $12, so
that a man can take up five or six
times as much there as in Iowa on the
same investment of money.
"It isn't the money, though, that
brings most of us up from Iowa. I'm
not sure that money would be enough.
The 'invasion' is a family affair. We
have no chance of keeping our sons
around us back home. They have
to leave the farm nnd go Into the big
cities of the neighboring States to get
work. To keep them on the farm and

Happening as it did, far from a
station and more than half a mile
from a farmhouse, the wreck came
iu a most desolate spot. Not a build-
ing of any kind was near. The
ground was covered with snow and a
raw wind was blowing.

a small portion of their clothing, even

terribly. But the strong readily sac-

tore strips from their clothing to
make bandages for the wounded.
A farmer gave the alarm. He called
the Trenton office, which is a division
point and a relief train was quickly
made up. The most, seriously injured
were taken to a hotel in Trenton.
Another relief train took 20 of the
injured and the uninjured passengers

dozen people had been killed. But

Easily Explained.
Mr. Swainson is a powerful preach-
er, but is never above leavening his
sermons with humor.
A good story he tells concerns u
visit once paid to the cottage of one
of his parishioners. It was early
spring and for a long time he sat by
the window with the woman's little
girl.
"In looking out," he remarked to tin
child, "do you notice how bright is
the green of the leaves and grass?"
The little girl nodded.
"Now tell me why does it appear
so much brighter at this time?'* Mr.
Swainson asked
" 'Cos," was the unexpected reply,
"ma's just washed the window and
you can see out better."
His Little Mistake.
They stood beneath the stars, silent
as the heart-beats of the night, look-
ing into the diamond-studded shi.*t-
front of the sky.
"Is that Mars?" he whispered, as he
slipped his arm round her taper waist,
and gased upon a glittering orb in the
distant blue.
"No, it isn't," she exclaimed, jerking
away; it's mine; and if you think
you are hugging mother, I can tell
you that you are very much mis-
taken."
The matter was amicably adjusted

together and the families that buy \ si
the farms they leave aro kept to 1 n
gether, too. There won't be any slack-
ening of the rush, either, for they still
raise big families back in Iowa."
One could almost seo tho mental
process of this typical American farm-
er in defending a step that meant a
new flag, a new allegiance, a new
land, and new associates. To aban-
don Old Glory of the Declaration of
Independence for a good thing in
cheap land would hardly be playing
the game, but to go out into Sas-
katchewan to "keep the family togeth-
er," was another and a quite higher
motive.
Why seek too closely to analyze the
reasons for the greatest land trek in
the history of America? It is enough
to know that the sons of the frontiers-
men of Iowa, and Kansas, and Minne-
sota—the best blood ol the mid west—
are pouring into the Canadian west In
an ever-Increasing stream, and are
learning that "God Save the King" and
"My Country 'Tis of Thee," are sung

A Pessimistic View.
Among the patients in a certain hos-
pital of Harrisburg there was recently
one disposed to take a dark view of
his chances for recovery.
"Cheer up, old man!" admonished
the youthful medico attached to the
ward wherein the patient lay. "Your
symptoms are Identical with those of
my own case four years ago. I was
just as sick as you are. I^ook at me
now!"
Th* patient ran his eyes over the
physician's stalwart frame. "What
doctor did you have?" he finally asked,
feebly,—Illustrated Sunday Magazine. 1

Welcome Words to Women
Women who suffer v\ith disorders peculiar fo their
sex should write to Dr. Pierce nnd rccc vc free the
tidvice of a physician of over HO years' experience
—e skilled and huccessfiil specialist in tho diseases
of women. I very letter of this sort has the most
careful consideration and is rc.''jrdod us tucredly
confidential. Many sensitively modc-.t women wrilo
fully to Dr. I'icrce what they would shrink from
telling to their local physician. The local physician
is pretty sure to say that t' cannot do anything
without "an examination." Dr. fierce holds that
these distasteful examinations are generally nced-
Ies6, and that no woman, except iu rare cases,
Dr. Tie rcc's treatment will cure you ri^ht In the privacy of
your own horae. His •• I'nvor.'te Prescription" has cured
hundreds of thousands, some of them the worst of cases*
It is the only medicine of its kind that is the product of a regularly graduated
physician. The only one good enough that its makers dare to print its every
ingredient on its outside wrapper. I here's no secrecy. It will bear examina-
tion. No alcohol and no habit-forming drugs are found in it. Some unscrup-
ulous medicine dealers may offer you a substitute. Don't take it. Don't trifle
with your health. Write to World's Dispensary Medical Association, Dr. R.
