THE PROGRESS OF THE CANA-
DIAN WEST.
Nearly 200000 of an Increase in Cana-
da's Immigration in 1906.
The progress of a now country can-
not bo better ascertained than by not-
ing the increase of railroad mileage in
Its transportation system' and judged
by this standard the Canadian West
leads all the countries in the world
during the current year. Thirty years
ago there was not one hundred miles
of railroad west of the Great Lakes
and very little prospect of a trans-
continental route for many years to
come but by tho end of 1885 the
Canadian Pacific Railway was within
measurable distanco of completion
and last year twenty years later
over 6000 miles of railroad traversed
tho provinces of Manitoba Sas-
katchewan and Alberta.
In tho past year tho work of rail-
road construction has been vigorously
prosecuted and by tho end of 1906
somo 5000 miles of completed railroad
has been added making a total of
fully 11000 miles In tho three great
grain producing provinces of Canada.
Such an increaso In the transportation
facilities of tho country Is bound to
make good times not only In the dis-
tricts where tho railroads are being
built but throughout tho entire west.
Allowing $20000 a mile for construc-
tion the sum of $100000000 will be
put In circulation and this In itself
should cause good times to prevail in
a land whero work is plentiful wages
are high and the cost of living Is mod-
orate. But the building of new railroads
through Western Canada means a
greater benefit to the country than
merely the money put In circulation
by tho -cost of construction. Addition-
al railway building moans tho opening
of 'iew agricultural districts and an
additional area under crops; a largely
increased output of grain to foreign
markets with consequent financial re-
turns; the erection of elevators and
the growth of villages towns and cit-
ies; and everything else that makes
for tho progress of national life and
tho opening up of additional thousands
pf free homesteads so extensively ad-
Tertlsed by the Canadian government
agent whose address appears else-
where. It was stated on tho floor of tho
Canadian Parliament recently by a
prominent representative that ten
years from now would see the bulk of
the population of Canada residing
west of the Great Lakes and if tho
work of railway building during tho
present year Is any criterion the
prophecy made by tho Canadian states-
man may be easily fulfilled Inside of
the time stated. During tho present
year no less than 189064 persons havo
found homes in tho Canadian west
of whom 57796 were Americans who
have seen the great possibilities of
this new West and havo decided to
cast In their lot witn it. Certainly
our neighbor north of tho 49th parallel
is making a great record and deserves
the success that appears to bo coming
Its way.

The strangest military body In the
world Is a band of cavalry at Saint do
Moorvay a province on tho east coast
of Africa which Is under tho rule of
tho French governor general at Mada-
gascar. These soldiers go about their
military operations on oxen. Tho ani-
mals are lean creatures and It te said
they move with surprising rapfdlty.
Art in Hand-Made Articles.
Oscar S. Straus tho now secretary
of commerce and labor Is a connois-
seur of pottery and porcelains. "Ma-
chinery" ho said "has robbed us of
our useful arts to a great extent. In
machine-made things fhero can bo no
artistic quality no Individual expres-
sion. In hand-made things oven the
humblest there Is always an oppor-
tunity for art to show Itself."
ELEVEN YEARS OF ECZEMA.
Hands Cracked and Bleeding Nail
Came Off of Finger Cuticura Rem-
edies Brought Prompt Relief.
"I had eczema on my hands for
about eleven years. The hands crack-
ed open In many places and bled. One
of my fingers was so bad that the
nail camo off. I had often heard of
cures by the Cuticura Remedies but
had no confidenco In them as I had
tried so many remedies and they all
had failed to euro me. I had seen
three doctors but got no relief. Final-
ly my husband said that. wo would
try tho Cuticura Remedies so wo got
a cake of Cuticura Soap a box of
Cuticura Ointment and two bottles
of Cuticura Resolvent Pills. Of course
I keep Cuticura Soap all tho time for
my hands but tho one cako of Soap
and half a box of Cuticura Ointment
cured them. It Is surely a blessing
for me to havo my hands well and I
am very proud of having tried Cuti-
cura Remedies and recommend thorn
to all suffering with eczoma. Mrs.
Eliza A. Wiley R. F. D. No. 2 Lis-

Taking Precautions.
When Speaker Cannon was swear-
ing in somo now members Congress-
man J Adam Redo remarked: "Undo
Joe makes 'em hold up their right
hands whon taking tho oath to sco
that thoy havon't anything but their
undorshirts up their sleovos."

mitted to the crow of tho Bchoolsln'p
St. Mary's is Katzern Artyoshl. Art-
yoshi who Is 17 years old has been
in tho revenuo cutter service on tho

Artyoshl was forced to get ono boforo
ho could be admitted to the crow. Ho
succeoded in getting Capt. Osborn to
act in that capacity. Capt. Osborn
will coach tho boy along and help him
over tho hard points in his lessons.
Artyoshl lias not made up his mind
yet whether ho will remain In this
country or go homo to Japan after ho
has been graduated from tho school-
ship. A term on tho schoolship fits
a boy for rervice in tho merchant ma-
rine Artyoshl says ho likes tho
United States and may stay here but
If Japan ever goes to war ho will re-
turn home quickly as possible to take
part in it.
