Wonder if Buffalo Bill - shook out his flowing locks when he said the brainiest men in the country come from the west. The reputation of being ready. to fight comes in very handy; Roose- velt has escaped poetical laudation by Poet Kipling. Mayor Gaynor of New York and Mayor Seidel of Milwaukee are cer- tainly taking up all the room that is coming to them in the world. Theicomet was in luck if it only lost its. tail by striking the world; the inhabitants of this..mundane,| phere nearly lost their heads. Well, as long as we weren't to know that we were baring through Halley’s comet what does it matter when we did go through after all. — : We doubt whether his European reception would either hurt or. help Col.. Roosevelt if he desires to be nominated again for president. The American people are pretty independ- ent and. would not be influenced oue way or-another by this particular episode. Even fair-minded newpapers scold Lawler (in the Ballinger case) for losing his temper and . calling Brandeis and -others names. But the meekest-mannered: -bear sees blood when baited long by snarling, snapping puppies. Lawler does not claim to be an angel; he shows he is very human rather. THE NATURE OF FRIENDSHIP. Friendship may be fostered but cannot be forced. Two are as one, not because it is in the will of either/ but because it is in the nature of both. When souls of similar fiber encounter each other the gods preside at.the meeting.. I may not - cockily say, “I will make this man -my friend.” He either is or is- not my friend without any decision of mine; or his. The ages have been shap- ing the two of us and if we fit-into each other, well and good; if:nat, we know it instinctively and are worlds apart though we toast our shins at the same fire and bandy words. till doomsday. GOOD TIME TO TURN FARMER. In theory there never was a better time than -right now- for a:sensible man to move from city to country. The movement has been away from the farm. until prices of all kinds of food and fiber are high. .-There is nothing in sight to indicatethat prices will be greatly -reduced - by increased production. A crop well grown:and handled: with. good busi- ness.- judgement will be reasonably sure of sale at a fair price. There never was a time when it was so easy to learn new. methods and the principles of scientific farming. A man starting now may receive at once the benefit of thirty years of the experience and study of good farmers and scientific experts. For Railway:: Official example, millions of acres of land in thg Eastern States are almost non-productive and thrown on the market ata low figure, simply be- cause they are water-logged and sour. When these .farms are.drained and limed they become at: oncel ipraductive, and ::double in value; for farm purposes:They arenaturally strong, and drainage and lime make their strength available. — H. W. Collingwood in the June Metropolitan Magazine. Most men owe their. reputation to their wife’s loyalty.

Winnipeg, Man., May 31.—Willlam ‘Whyte, vice president of the Canadian Pacific railway, estimates that :this |y, year:the area of land devoted to.wheat growing in the prairie provinces will be 8,600,000 acres, or between 12 and 15: per..cent more than last year. Of this -total 4,600,000 acres is in Saskatchewan alone. Of oats. there will be 4,500,000 acres, slightly more than last -year; of barley about "1 000,000 acres and of flax. about 600,000 acres, nearly double the acreage of last year given to this grain. Less than 10 per cent of the arable land of .Saskatchewan is now,under, eultivation. Never hestitate about giving Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy to children. It containsno opium or other narcotics and can be given with - implicit confidence. As a quick cure, for coughs and colds to which children are susceptible, it is unsurpassed. Sold by Barker Drug Co.
