Sask., early in October I journeyed to Medi - eine Hitt, Alberta, where I enjoyed a pleasanb stay of two weeks. This is the town that Rudyard Kipling claimed was born lucky on account of the abundant amount of natural gas available. It is used for all purposes, both lighting and heat- ing. Street lights burn night and day, the city fathers claiming 01) would not pay them to employ amen to ex- tinguish and relight them, Since the wells were drilled several years ago there has been no decrease of pressure to the square inch. Medicine Hat has a population of 5,000 and I consider it is typically named. Itis situated in a valley completely surrounded by hills and is the centre of a great ranebing country, the climate being said to be better adapted for such purposes than any other part of Alberta. Was in- formed that they had exceedingly mild Winters. About six inches of snow fell daring my visit there which was the assurance that old timers had that a calm Winter was before them. Two years ago this storm did not come and the cold was very severe that season, as it was all over Canada. Leaving "The Hat" I came North to Calgary, the place every body likes who have once had the privilege of living here. "Calgary's splendid climate" is a watchword all over America. After living in the East and experiencing the preliminary storms of snow and rain before Winter setsin in earnest and then living in Calgary, I think one should be. forgiven for looking upon "Sunny Alberta" as a soot of Paradise. The weather at present will force ther- mometers to register close upon Sum- mer heat. During my residence here of almost a month there have been only two days that were decidedly chilly when the thermometer went down four degrees below zero. A8 there is no wind when frosty I clo not think the cold is noticed so much. Calgary has a population of over 24,000. Since 1901 it is claimed it has increased almost 18,000. The city cov- ers an area of 12 square miles. It q e s is the commercial centre of 50,000,000 acres of farm, grazing, timber and coal lands. The averageyieldper acreof s Winter wheat in the vicinity of Calgary is 28 bushels ; Spring wheat is :df bushels while oats go 80 bushels. Five elevator companies have their head offices here and upwards of one million bushels of grain were market- ed here last year while 120,000 barrels of flour were milled by Calgary flour mills. Branches of the 0. P. R. run North, South, East and West out of the city. Branches of the Great Northern, Canclian Northern and Grand Trunk Pacific are expect- ed to soon enter the city. There are thirteen branches of Cana- dian chartered bauks in the city. A new Normal School wasrecently re- opened and besides there is one High School, two Roman Catholic separate schools and nine public schools, also two busiuess colleges. There are six Presbyterian churches, five Methodist, five Baptist, four lfipiscopalian, two Roman Catholic, two Lutheran, one Moravian church and one Salvation Army. There are two large public hospitals and four private hospitals. There are twenty hotels that cater to the wants of the public. In the manufacturing section there are forty factories or more, producing biscuits, boxes, breakfast foods, bricks, beds, building material, cement and cement blocks, groundcoffee andfiour, leather goods, mattresses, soap, show cases, saddlery, tents, wagons and other saleable articles. A great deal has been clone lately in street improve- ment. It is estimated that there are twenty-one miles of granolitbic side- walks, twenty miles of plank side- walks, nlnoteon miles of sewers and thirty miles of water mains. The great undertaking at present is the laying of the rails for a street railway and the pavingof the streets. The work on. Gightx Avenue, the principal business street, is almost completed and judging from the speed that the contractors are doing their work it Will not be long before the citizens of Calgary will not be forced to walk, There are 105 wholesale houses in Cal- gary each having as large a business as any such firm in Wlnuipeg.- Well Mr. Kerr, perhaps I have mentioned a few things about Calgary that you did not know before but to realize what a prosperous city it •1S and to know what itis like to live in "Sunny Alberta,' a trip to this wonderful country is nenessery. The directors of the. Dominion Exhibition helot here in July last have found it to bo such a snceess that Calgary will have a Fair of it's own next year, The first Week in Jlily is the date set, "There's yens' chance.

A meeting of the creditors of Hanna Bros. was called for Thursday of last week, at the office of Osier 'Wade, 64 Wellington St. West, Toronto, for the purpose of considering the affairs of the firm. Rev. and Mrs. H. Edgar Allen left for their new field of labor in Hamil- ton on Tuesday morning, and will immediately enter upon their duties there.

There were ten offers ranging from $7,000 to the figure at which the debentures were sold. A quiet wedding took place in Port- land, Maine, on Tuesday of last week, when Miss Olive Manners, daughter of Geo. Manners of Wingham, was united in marriage to Chas. Hoffman, former- ly of London, Out. A happy event took place at Cal- gary, Alta., on Monday, Nov" 10th, when James Paterson, son of Arch. enol Mrs. Paterson, of this town, was married to Miss Ruth Price, of that city. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Mr. Pearson. The animal meeting of the Woman's Auxiliary of St. Pant's Church was held and the following officers were elected :-Hon. President, Mos.

"For many years I have been a suf- ferer from bronchial catarrh,and d h ad despaired of anything like a cure. Judge of my pleasant surprise when I first used yomei, which brought complete relief. Hyomei has been a veritable godsend." -Rev. Charles Hartley, Sardinia Ohio. and 'h lI 7. o s a of catarrh sufferers have given up in despair. They have tried stomach closing, snuff, sprays and douches without success, and now be- lieve catarrh to be incurable. But Jas. Fox, the druggist, holds out hope to all distressed. He sells a remedy called Hyomei which is guar- anteed for catarrh, colds, coughs, bronchitis, asthma and croup. Hyomei (pronounced High -o -me) is medicated air, full' of the healthy vir- tues of the mountain pines. You breathe in the delightful antiseptic air, and as it passes over the inflamed Incl germ ridden membrane, it allays the inflammation, kills the germs, and drives out the disease. .ol. complete Hyomei outfit, including a hard rubber inhaler, costs but $1.00, and an extra bottle of Hyomei, if after wards needed, costs but 50 cents. See • Jas. Fox about it to -day. - Belgrave Mrs. B. Gibson, of Hastings, is the guest of J. A. and Mrs. Brandon. A baby daughter came to stay at the home of Jas, and Mrs, Taylor. Mrs. Douglas, mother of Mrs. Will. Corbett, hasegoue to her home in Stratford. Taxes in the Belgrave school section are a little over one cent ou the dollar assessment.
