Canada, as a great wheat -growing country, has on other occasions util- ized its products to display its loy- alty. During the Duke of York's 'tour through that part of our Ehn- • pito, Winnipeg, the capital of Maui- toba, opanned the streets with two arches composed of sheaves of wheat, in one of which was inscribed; "Fif- teen years' increase in Manitoba's wheat crop," Apples were the principal constitu- ents of an arch erectedby the citi- eons of Hobart, Tasmania, to sig- nalize the sante auspicious event; While on the occasion of the visit of Lord and Lady Aberdeen to God- erich, Ont., they passed beneath an arch :formed of barrels bearing the legend ''Iluron's apple crop -500,- 000 barrels." A FARC OE 50,000 ACRES • THE BIGGEST THING IN THE WESTERN STATES. Its Profits Are One Hundred and Fifty Thousand a'Rear--.-An- renal Expenses Roaeh SeV- entY-Viva Thousand, A ranch of 80,000 acres is not considered eMtrht large when the land is stocked with wild, long -horn' ed Texas steers, and there ere no fences around it. Kat if 30,000 acres be putup into fields and fam- ed in pastures, told the whole places] under one Inaluigcment, it makes a farm worthconsidering among the many big things Of the , Western country. 1n Nrthern 0lciahoma there lies a tract of 50,000 fertile acres, all sur- rounded by one fence and under 000 management. It is known tis the 101 ranch, George W. Miller f Sons operate the ranch property, the land itself being owned by the Ponca and Otoe tribes of Indians, They pay the Indiana $22,500 annually for the use of this land, $1.25 an .acre for farming land, and 25 cents an acre for pasture lands. In the southwest there are many large ranches and farms, but none equals the 101 ranch hi extent, The Sherman farm in. Western :Kansas has under fence about 80,000 acres, and there are pastures in both the Creek and the Osage 'Indian nations covering sixty or seventy thousand acres, but as a strictly farm ranch the 101 outclasses all of them. • ANNUAL EXPENSES. The annual expenses of the ranch aro $75,000. Two hundred men are employed during the busiest seasons, fifty to seventy being employed the year round, 'l.he fence line of the ranch is more than 150 ]piles long. The profits are $150,000 per annum. The 101 ranch is so long that half the time the superintendent at head- quarters cannot tell where one-third of his employes are working, That is, he could not tell offhand, but by consulting his assistant and using his telephone he would have them located. The season of hardest work has just ended and the men are resting after the harvest. The ranch har- vested 150,000 bushels of wheat and a like amount of corn this summer. There were 8,000 acres in wheat and 8,000 acres sown in corn. The wheatis sold in the Kansas City market at from 60 to 63 cents. a bushel. The profit from wheat alone this year has been more than $40,000. The profit on corn is quite as much, while 10,000 steers arc marketed every season. THE MANAGEMENT. Joseph Miller, once a bank pre- sident, is manager of the business affairs of the ranch. He employs experts in every department. The wheat and cornfields are managed by an expert farmer, the cattle are bought and sold by an expert stock salesman. There is even an expert broucho buster or two to attend to the breaking of young mules brought ueon the ranch to do the farm work. Tine 101 ranch is conducted so that nothing goes to waste and every acre of ground is utilized. There is a system for the management of earn department. The system of wheat producing on the 101 ranch has been widely copied throughout the southwest and has been the foundation of excellent yields in many parts of Kansas, Ok- lahoma and Nebraska. It is so ef- fective that the much has produced forty bushels of wheat to the acre, while neighboring farmers have rais- ed less than fifteen. The average yield is eighteen bushels to the acre. WELLI'NGTON, NE1V ZEALAND, to welcome the IIeir to Britain's throne, bridged the streets with bales' of wool, on which was inscribed: "S h warmth f our 1Velcohne;" °stew tho m 'i Westport decorated her arch with lumps of coal with the quaint leg- end: 1 end: "TJte coal that saved the, Calliope;" while Perth erected a gor-1 geous device, that shonelike gold 'in the sunlight, surmounted by an imeneese golden' ball, to typify the Mineral wealth of Western Australia. When the King and Queen Regent of Spain visited Vigo, one of the centres of the sardine fisheries, the inhabitants erected a curious arch, whereof the base consisted of four boats employed for the sardine fish- ing, from dash of which sprang a tower formed of barrels, tins, and other articles used in the industry. The towers, which. were profusely decorated with the Royal and na- tional arms, were connected with a large banner on which weresetforth beside the customary loyal greeting, a petition for the removal of certain imposts that were crippling the town's trade. This was read by the ]Loyal visitors, through whose good offices the request was granted Near Amesbury, in Wiltshire, is an arch composed entirely of horseshoes, which appropriately mark the en- trance to a smithy. 111 a village near Brunn, in Bohemia, stood a few year's since a. quaint erection of scythes, sickles, rakes, hoes, and other implements of agriculture un- der which all wayfarers hod to pass, as they did beneath the jaw boles of a mighty whale which spanned a narrow street in St. Hailers, Jer- sey. ROYAL PROCESSIONS'. are naturally ]paste the °celste:1 of erecting triumphal arches, many of which, as has already been noted, are nest ingenious in design. Whin the Treaty of Iiubertusburg was signed at the conclusion of the Sev- en Years' War, an arch was put ep in the Saxon town emblematic of the cessation of hostilities. It con- sistee entirely of werlike weapons, which, no longer needed in warfare, were thus employed in the celebra- tion of peace. On the return to his kingdom after his visit to James I., Christian IV. of Denmark was received with much rejoicing by his people, who, among other ways of showing his delightnn other ways of showing their delight at his return, built an arch, to typi- fy the Worship of .Bacchus. •It was constructed entirely of wino flasks, festooned with grapes and vine ]eaves, and surmounted by a figure of Bacchus holding in his hand a sil- ver flagon, whence, es the Icing ap- proached, a stream of wine fell into n golden cup held below by an at- tendant, who presenter) it, when full to the monarch, whereat that Royal tope'. exemessod himself imunerasely pleased with his subjects' novel me- thod of displaying their loyalty. Fnr different the device, emnloyed to gratify that human fiend, Anhur- ath IV., Sultan of Turkey, who, to signalize the suppression of his mu- tinous troops, rode 3n triumph be- neath an arch made of the limbs and bodies of the soldier's who had been slain, and surmounted by a ghost, ly row of decapitated hence. This gruesome erection eves made, 'per- ha'ps, the more horrible by being fes- tooned with roses, lilies, end other flowers: while at its foot a choir of boys, clothed -fn silk, sang the eon- queror's praise.

Thousands of children die during the ]hot weather months, because summer complaints and stomach troubles come suddenly, and mothers do not have the means at hand to promptly checic and cure them. In homes where Baby's Own Tablets are used these precious little lives can be saved, and no ]hones where there are infants and young children should be without them. Babyt'S Own Tablets will promptly cure all stomach and bowel trou- bles, c,nd are a great relief to teethe ing children. The Tablets are sold under a positive gnartuttee that they contain neither opiate nor hiu•mful chug. Crushed to a powder they can be given with absolute safety to a new born babe. Mrs. I1. Verge - SO u, 105 b'lansfielid street, Mon- treal, says i -"I have used Baby's Own Tablets and have found them the hest .medicine I have over given my children, My baby has always been small and deiteate and suffered so much last sehmmer with his teeth that I did not think be would live. Then he was attacked witis clysentry, a feverish skin and cough.

They aro ready to supply to the savage tribes gode great anti: email, loving of warlike, made of paper, wood 01' ivory, or the most preeictis metal, an terms which pay 'them and please their dusky customers. And no er•odit.is given and no risk is run in worthless checks or base coin, for the bill is paid ihi.:the local territorial currency - namely, in yams, bananas,. rice, palms, maize, dourra, nuts and beans; or in gold metal, palm oil, ivory, gums and cowries, or in cattle or slaves. This merchandise is converted into money in the ral`ilnls. F17tST-CLASS WORSKMANSIIIP, Some of the idols are dreams of first-cla-s workmanship, for the Zanguebarians have imported work- men from various parts' of the world, whose whole labors are expended on the 'monstersuponwhich the poor savage looks with eyes of tenderness and veneration. Ivory and certain klials of wooden gods are princi- pally mads on African territory-- those erritory-those of the cheaper 1011de-but the more pretentious and expensive gods are made in France, Germany and England, in factories, the existence of which nobody on this side of the tvo'ltl has hardly ever dreamed. in the valley of the Sfontbas there is in every village what is called tt sacred house, which contains, among gruesome objects, many priceless. treasures, though fearfully ugly. things in the way of idols. The na- tives call them ' AI'luhgu," and they consist of human heads fastened on a pole, with precious stones and golden tind silver bars or plates in- geniously inserted in the face, figures of lions and alligators of the most outrageous description, but nevertheless made Of gold and smothered in precious stones and knuckle 'bones of various animals encased in glittering frames com- posed of diamonds. Most of these fetishes are made to order in Birmingham, not 300 yards from Broad street, which city has sent to the East African, Congo, Gaboon and other tribal/ hundreds of idols. TiilOftIl ARE HtJND1tEDS of gods worshiped by savages, there being at least one for every con- ceivable happening known to hu- manity, and they range in size from one inch to a hundred feet high. The strangest god of all is ''Xis- uka," who is the terror and the love at Lha same tine; of the Ila - boon blacks. Ho looks like an or- dinary scarecrow, judging by the quantity oe feathers and old rags with which the body is dressed up. As a matter of fact, however, the groat god, which stands some nine fent high, is made -principally at Nimes, in France -out of solid cob- bles of gold, and though the carv- ing takes hideous lines,ryet It is so beautifully clone as to warrant the bill coming to, as a rule, oto thou- sand guineas. The traders are paid, with ivory -enormous tusks weighing from 100 to 200 pounds, and ]etch- ing in the wholesale market from 50 to 711 pounds per hundredweight. Of course, the business comes to the trader in a very roundabout way. Some of the minor chiefs get to hear of the middleman -the trad- er's traveller -being in the district. This astute individual has already seen the, witch doctor -the creature who rules the tribe, so to speak- and has prevailed upon him to pro- vide the tribe with a brawl -new god "Business on equltahle,terins" is done, The savage holds a -pala- ver," at which he declares the "gods" want propitiating, and this, of course, takes the form of a thew go`d• THE CROWN RUBY.

Ti your head strikes the bottom with sufficient fordo, you' may be held in the mud, and be suffocated. Don't confide yourself to ono stroke unless in rac- ing. Vary your movements so as not to overwork one set of muscles. ICeep your mouth shut as much as possible, for unexpected gulps of water are often drawn into the windpipe and thereby cause the swimmer to strangle and lose his head. Don't fail to keep a cool head when caught in strong eddies. Don't neglect to rub your body thoroughly with vaseline before go- ing on a long swim, say of a ]rile or over. In this way the prolonged Submersion will have no ill-effects. Don't drink whiskey or Jamaica gin- ger before going into the water. We it until you come out if you want a stimulant. Women should wear the lightest bathing suits possible. Most of the garments worn in the water aro heavy enough to drag a school of porpoises to the bottom.
