Olds, Alberta, Dec. 10, 1006.
Mr. M. V. Mclnnes, Detroit, Michigan:
Dear Sir and Friend—It will be four
years next May since I came to Olds,
and have lived here ever since.
Since I came here wheat has run
from 25 to 45 bu. per acre, oats from
65 to 115, that I know of. I raised
that last year, 115 bu. to the acre of
the finest oats I ever saw, and oats
that I sowed 31st day of May this
year went 72to the acre and weigh-
ed 41 lbs. to the bushel. My barley
went 40 bu. last year and 50 this year,
and was not sown until the latter part
of May. I had 3 acres of potatoes this
year and sold 700 bushels and put 275
bu. in the cellar, and no bugs to pick.
We have a fine Government Cream-
ery at Olds. Our cows made $41 per
head and I didn't feed any grain;
only prairie hay, so you see we are do-
ing well. We have the patent for
our homestead now and am very
thankful that we came to Alberta.
We have made a little over $1,000
each year besides making our living.
I would not go back to Michigan to
live for anything. If I had my choice
of a ticket to Olds or a 40-acre farm
in Michigan I would take the ticket
and in two years I could buy any of
them 40-acre farms. This is the coun-
try for a poor man, as well as a man
with money.
I will close, thanking you for our
prosperity, I remain yours truly,
(Signed) OTTO YETTING,
Olds, Alberta, Canada. Box 159.

Another Silent Senator.
In substituting Major Frank O.
Briggs for John F. Dryden New Jer-
sey will send another silent senator
to congress. It is said that Major Briggs
has never made a speech or writ-
ten a public document of any kind.
Nor has he had any legislative ex-
perience. For a long time New Jer-
sey has been represented in the sen-
ate by men who have not displayed
forensic ability. Mr. Kean, who is
now serving his second term, has
never participated in senate debates.

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear-
ing quality of the goods. This trouble
can be entirely overcome by using De-
fiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more *hinly because of its great-
er strength than- other makes.
Like Monks' Chartreuse Best.
Chartreuse, the liqueur of the Car-
thusian monks, was the invention of
an aged baker. On the expulsion of
the Carthusian fathers from France
the Chartreuse receipt was sold at
auction for $1,750,000. The French
buyers undertook, however, a losing
business, for the monks are now mak-
ing their liqueur in Spain and epicures
prefer it to that of the French firm.

Information.
'Josiah," said Mrs. Chugwater, "this
paper speaks of Mr. Ustler as a 'pro-
moter.' Whats a promoter?"
"You oughtn't to ask such a simple
question as that," answered Mr. Chug-
water. "It comes from two Latin
words: 'pro,' meaning for, or in favor
of, and 'motor,' meaning automobile.
A promoter is a person that's in favor
of automobiles. Get the idea?"

Or. Williams' Pink Pills Cured Stub*
born Rheumatism When Other
Treatment Gave No Relief.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have been
curing the most stubborn cases of
rheumatism for nearly a generation
and thousands of grateful patients
have given testimony that cannot be
ignored.
Mr. Robert Odbert, a machinist, liv-
ing at 201 Cameron Street, Detroit,
Mich., had a very distressing experi-
ence with rheumatism for about two
years. He makes the following state-
ment: "About the year 1887 I felt tho
effects of rheumatism which gradually
grew worse until I was compelled to
give work for a time. The years
of '97 and '98 I was confined to my bed
most of the time. I was under doctors'
treatment but found no relief. My
legs were swollen from the hips down-
ward and red blotches appeared all
over them. Frequently they pained
me so that I had to bind them tightly
with strips of linen. This sometimes
relieved the pain but at other times
failed to do so. At times I had to
crawl to my work, using two crutches.
During these spells I suffered greatly
from pain around my heart which I at-
tributed to the rheumatism.
"At last my mother wrote me and
csked mo to try Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills. I did and in a short time I
found myself getting better and have
had no trouble since. I may here add
that I consider myself perfectly cured.
I have not had the least sign of the
disease since and feel better now than
I ever did. For these reasons I
recommend Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
to any one affected the same as I was."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or sent by mail, postpaid
on receipt of price, 50 cents per box,
six boxes for $2.50, by the Dr. Wil-
liams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y.
