WH? ROT OWN LAND?
ONE OF THE BEST WAYS TO
MAKE MONEY IS TO INVEST
IN WESTERN CANADA.
• “Deep down in the nature of every
properly constituted man is the desire
to own some land.” A writer in the
Iowa State Register thus tersely ex
presses a well-known truth. The ques
tion is where is the best land to be
had at the lowest prices, and this the
same writer points out in the same ar
ticle. The fact is not disguised that
the writer has a personal interest in
the statement of his case, and there is
no hidden meaning when he refers to
Western Canada as presenting great
er possibilities than any other part of
the American Continent, to the man
who is inclined to till the soil for a
livelihood and possible competence.
What interests one are the arguments
advanced by this writer, and when
fairly analyzed the conclusion is
reached that no matter what personal
interest the writer may have had, his
reasons appear to have the quality of
great soundness. The climatic condi
tions of Western Canada are fully as
good as those of Minnesota, the Dako
tas or Iowa, the productiveness of the
soil is as great, the social conditions
are on a parity, the laws are as well
established and as carefully observed.
In addition to these the price of land
is much less, easier to secure. So, with
these advantages, why shouldn't this
—the offer of Western Canada—be
embraced. The hundreds of thousands
of settlers now there, whose homes
were originally in the United States,
appear to be—are satisfied. Once in
awhile complaints are heard, but the
Canadians have never spoken of the
country as an Eldorado no matter
what they may have thought. The
writer happened to have at hand a few
letters, written by former residents of
the United States, from which one or
twTo extracts are submitted. TTiese go
to prove that the -writer in the Regis
ter has a good basis of fact in support
of his statements regarding the excel
lency of the grain growing area of
Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta.
On the 29th of April of this year W.
R. Conley, of Lougheed, Alberta, wrote
a friend in Detroit. He says: “The
weather has been just fine ever since
I came here in March, and I believe
one could find if he wanted to some
small bunches of snow around the
edge of the lake. There is a frost near
ly every morning: at sunrise it begins
to fade away, then those blue flow
ers open and look as fresh as if there
had been no frost for a week. . . .
There is no reason why this country
should not become a garden of Eden;
the wealth is in the ground and only
needs a little encouragement from tho
government to induce capital in here.
There is everything here to build
With: good clay for brick; coal under
neath, plenty of water in the spring
lakes, and good springs coming out of
the banks.”

‘‘Yes, she's a darling, and she came
to me highly recommended.”
‘‘Knows all about the latest styles of

“Oh, so far as knowing the duties
of a maid goes, I don't suppose she
knows a thing.”
“But she came highly recommended, ’
you said?”
“Yes, she broke the jaw of the last
man who tried to kiss her.”—Houston

Rather Hard.
The messenger entered the palace
with the dispatches.
“Brimstone and asphalt!” ejaculated
Castro, as he read the yellow slip.
“Holland threatens to spank us.”
“Wall, what of it, your excellency?"
responded the secretary. “Other na
tions have threatened to do the same.”
“Yes, but, confound it, this is a
spanking that will hurt. The Dutch
wear wooden shoes.”
ROSY AND PLUMP
Good Health from Right Food.
k
“It’s not a new food to me,” re
marked a Va. man, in speaking of
Grape-Nuts.
“About twelve months ago my wife
was in very bad health, could not keep
anything on her stomach. The Doctor
recommended milk half water but it
wa3 not sufficiently nourishing.
“A friend of mine told me one day
to try Grape-Nuts and cream. The re
sult was really marvelous. My wife
soon regained her usual strength and
to-day is as rosy and plump as when
a girl of sixteen.
“These are plain facts and nothing
I could say in praise of Grape-Nuts
would exaggerate in the least the
value of this great food.”

COMPANY FORMED WITH $100,
000 CAPITAL TO PUT UP AT
A $40,000 PLANT.
LITTLE ROCK MAN AT HEAD.
N. B. Moore Elected President—$40,
COO Is Subscribed and Remainder
Is Assured.
Carlisle.—At a meeting held here
Saturday and attended by fully one
held here and attended by fully one
hundred men interested in rice cul
ture, a company with $100,000 capi
tal was organized that intends to put
up a rice mill to cost $40,000 and to
be equally as large as the one at
Stuttgart.
N. B. Moore of Little Rock was
elected president; H. J. Buechley,
vice president; D. B. Perkins, treas
urer, and P. W. Echlin, secretary, all
of Carlisle. The board of directors is
composed of the officers and J. H.
Sims of Hazen and Elmer Robertson
of Carlisle.
A manager for the mill has already
been employed to come at once, but
the mill promoters refuse to divulge
his name at this time.
Of the $100,000 capital stock, $40,
000 has been subscribed, and t.. di
rectors say the remaining $60,000 will
be subscribed within a few days.
Construction wrill be started when
the manager arrives. The site is yet
to be seletced.
INSPECTING ZINC MINES.
Carload of Milwaukee Capitalists
Visit Yellville District.
Yellville.—A party of 45 people
from Milwaukee and other points in
Wisconsin, arrived here in their spe
cial Pullman, and left immediately
for the Iola mine, near Dodd City, in
which a number of the party are in
terested as officers and stockholders,
while others were prospective invest
ors in this district. The party spent
most of the day Friday at the mine.
They left here for home Saturday
but most of them will return to the
district soon to renew investigations
and take action on propositions of
investment now before them
party was under the direction of Mr.
Phillips superintendent of the Iola
mine. A number of other parties
are expected to arrive here in the
near future and things now look as
though the Yellville zinc and lead
district is entering upon a lively
boom.
GOMPERS ON THE SENTENCE.
Head of Labor Organization Says Sen
tence is an Injustice.
Baltimore, Md.—In what he said
was his first reference to the recent
sentence of himself, John Mitchell
and Secretary Morrison, of the Amer
ican Federation of Labor, Samuel
Gompers said:
“The granting of Hie injunction and
the sentence imposed by Judge
Wright were grossly unjust, and not
even a judge nor his sentence can
put a stigma upon my colleagues nor
myself, nor make criminals of us.
“The injustice of it is shown by
the fact the very things we are for
bidden to do, every other citizen has
the right to do, and it is this that we
are protesting against.”
LARGEST DOCKET IN YEARS.
Four Murder Cases Set for Trial at
Conway This Term.
Conway.—With the largest docket
in years, including four murder cases,
circuit court convened here Monday.
Although Judge Lea has had electric
lights installed in the court room so
that day and night sessions of the
court may be held, it is thought that
the term will last at least two weeks.
The court will be presided over by
Judge Eugene Lankford of DeVall’s
Biuff, and this will be the first session
at which George W. Clark will serve
as prosecuting attorney in his home
county.
TO BUILD AERIAL WARSHIP.
New York.—An aerial warship, 700
feet in length with accommodations
(for 100 passengers, food and fuel
enough for a voyage across the ocean,
and a full complement of guns, is to
be built immediately at the Nixon
yards, according to Lewis Nixon, the
designer and constructor of many
warships. Mr. Nixon said that the
giant air craft will cost more than
$1,000,000.
Austin, Tex.—A motion has been
made by Chairman Mayfield of the
Texas Railroad Commission for a
hearing in February for the abolish
ment cf the present cotton tariff and
substituting an entirely new tariff
for it.
Panama Treaty Signed.
Panama.—President Obaldia has
received advice from the Panama
legation at Washington, saying that
at midnight Saturday night the final
drafts of the treaties between the
United States and Colombia and ilie
United States and Panama were sign
ed. As the national assembly is now
in session, it is probable these treat
ies, which cover questions in dispute
between Panama and Colombia, will
be submitted for approval before ad
journment.
PATIENT SUFFERING.
Many Women Think They Are
Doomed to Backache.
It is not right for women to be al
ways ailing with backache, urinary
ills, headache and other
symptoms of kidney
disease. There is a way
to end these troubles
quickly. Mrs. John H.
Wrght, 606 East First
St., Mitchell, S. D.,
says: “I suffered ten
years with kidney com
plaint and a doctor told me I would
never get more than temporary relief.
A dragging pain and lameness in my
back almost disabled me. Dizzy spells
came and went and the kidney secre
tions were irregular. Doan's Kidney
Pills rid me of these troubles and I
feel better than for years past.”

“Nails.”
“Nails are a mighty good thing—
particularly finger nails—but I don’t
believe they were intended solely for
scratching, though I used mine largely
for that purpose for several years. I

one box cured me entirely.”

"We Have Many Similar."
The following Is an extract from a
letter received from Mr. H. H. Meyers
of Stutgart, Ark.: “You would great
ly oblige me if you would introduce
Hunt's Lightning Oil at Millidgeville,
111., as I have many friends and rela
tives there, in whom I am much con
cerned, and I understand the Oil is not
kept there. I can recommend it as
the best medicine I ever had in my
house. It cured me of a bad case of
the Bloody Flux in less than one-half
hour, and it cured my grand-daughter
of a bad case of Cholera Morbus in a
very short time.”
Valuable Conch Shells.
The eoncli shell is highly prized in
India. In many of the temples they
are blown daily to scare away the ma
lignant spirits while the god receives
his daily meal. A conch with the
spiral twistings to the right instead of
to the left is supposed to be worth
its weight in gold. Some years ago a
conch oi that description was offered
for sale in Calcutta, with a reserve
price of a lakh of rupees placed on it.
It was eventually bought in for $20,000.
Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot reach the dis
eased portion of the ear. There Is only one way to
cure deafness, and that Is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness Is caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube Is Inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im
perfect hearing, and when It Is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal condi
tion, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine eases
out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but an Inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of
Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured
by Hail’s Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

A philosophy without heart and a

from the true life and being of knowl
edge and faith. The man whom phil
osophy leaves cold, and the man whom
real faith does not illumine, may be
assured that the fault lies in them
selves, not in knowledge and faith.
The former is still an alien from phil

When shown positive and reliable proof that a certain
remedy had cured numerous cases of female ills, wouldn’t
any sensible woman conclude that the same remedy would
also benefit her if suffering with the same trouble ?
Here are two letters which prove the efficiency of Lydia
E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound.
Red Banks, Miss.—“Words are inadequate to express what
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has done for me. I
suffered from a female disease and weakness which the doc
tors said was caused by a fibroid tumor, and I commenced to
think there was no help for me. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound made me a well woman after all other means had
failed. My friends are all asking what has helped me so much,
and T gladly recommend Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com
pound.”—Mrs. Willie Edwards.
Hampstead, Maryland.—“ Before baking Lydia E. Plnkham’s
Vegetable Compound I was weak and nervous, and could not
bo on my feet half a day without suffering. The doctors told
me I never would be well without an operation, but Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has done more for me than all
the doctors, and I hope this valuable medicine may come into
the bauds of many more suffering women.” — Mrs. Joseph 11.
Handy.
We will pay a handsome reward to any person who will
prove to us that these letters are not genuine and truthful
— or that either of these women were paid in any way for
their testimonials, or that the letters are published without
their permission, or that the original letter from each did
not come to us entirely unsolicited.
What more proof can any one ask ?
For 30 years Lydia E. Pinkliam’s Vegetable
Compound has been the standard remedy for
female ills. No sick woman does justice to
herself w ho will not try this famous medicine.
Made exclusively from roots and herbs, and
lias thousands of cures to its credit.
KnrtHgto Mrs. Pinkham invites all sick women
sPHF to write licr for advice. She has
guided thousands to health free of charge.
Address Mrs. Pinkliam, Lynn, Mass.
For Sick Women
Of course, well people don’t need a tonic. But
sick people, and especially sick women, frequently do.
That feeling of weakness, tiredness, or lan
guidness, that seems to make every movement or
thought an effort, is much more than merely dis
agreeable. It is a sign of dangerous weakness, and
should be promptly treated with Wine of Cardui.
Mrs. Annie Vaughan, of Raleigh, N. C., writes:
4‘I cannot find words to express my deep gratitude
for what your wonderful medicine
Mine of Cardui did for me, for I sin
cerely believe it saved my life.
“I was sick and worn-out, almost
unto death. My sister finally persua- t [ij
ded me to take Cardui. Before I had Jj
taken five (5) bottles, I was well and
strong.” Try Cardui. Twill help you.
