On the Right Way),
Almost every man who has been success•
la has written an article for some magazine
on how he did it, or been interviewed by
eorne newspaper, but all this informa.tion
hes been eoattered carelessly abroad, so that
juat when we want to know what to do, or
the right step to take, we cannot lay- our
hands on the particular species of advice
whioh we remember to have read. be re-
stdt is that we stumble along as best eve can,
and probably make the very mistake of our
Bowe all for want of knowing what Caleb
Coupon did at this point.
The writer hopes herewith to supply this
deficiency, as he has kept a record of the
prineipal neeessities laid down from time to
time by great men who have given the re-
state of their experience, and lays them be-
fore the reader, to follow closely and not
shirk.
Tobegin with,you should select for a birth-
place& dingy -looking little farmhouse, on
the outskirts of a clearing. Log cabins have
gone out of date. At ()Le time they were
.quite fashionable, but 'something a trifle beti.
ter is now demanded, As time goes on,who
knows Maybe some of our great men will
be born, inethe " Ladies' Home Lournal "
three -thousand -dollar country house's. This,
however, is a remote contingency. .
Be good to your mother. While the other
boys of the neighborhood are playing
bookey, marbles and baseball, you will be
doing chores around the house. This, how-
ever, does not imply a goodness in any other
way. You will, of course, avoid going to
.Sunday school, and when you are not Raw-
irg wood and laying the -foundation of the
wonderful constitution which is afterwards
to carry you through life, you will be read-
ing a few well-chosen books, such as the
dictionary, the Bible and one or two con -do
Tapers. -You will find the jokes useful later
. when you are celled upon to make after-
dinner speeches.
You can then take your choice of " strug•
,gling through college or leaving the farm
with a dollarein.your pocket. Better leave
college alone, however, as it teaches you a
1st of superfluous things you may regret.
Many.a man who might have accumulated a
large fortune has spoiled it all by going
through college and learning to Iove other
things more than money. The best plan is
f.to-go to New York with a dollar in your
-pocket. Go at -once to the leading savinge
bank and deposit seventy-five cents. Live
on the balance until you get work. As soon
as you get work, save at least seventy-five
per cent of your wages, if you can ; or, bet-
ter atilt, renety par cent. Vou will thua
3equire habits of frugality, which will be a
source of happiness to you throughout your
whole life.
At the end of a few years you will have
saved up a few thousands, and your snacess
is now assured. Do not gamble. Robbing
is not only safer and surer, but it is legal.
Protected by the laws of your country, you
can feel entirely safe. Reorganize a rail-
road, start a small trust, or get acquainted
in Washington. When, you get to be
seventy you ought to be worth at least a
hundred millions. Yoi can then make a
bluff at giving it all away, and be quoted at
saying that it is wicked for a rich man to
leave anything behind him. -Tom iviasson.
A THOUSAND THANKS.
Quebec Man Cannot be too Grate-
ful for Dodd's Kidney Pills.
ST. ELYEMe, Que., Sept. 9, (Special). -A
feature about the work of Dodd's Kidney
Pills is the great gratitude they arouse in
those whom they restore to health. Heelth
and sickneas are as different from each
ether as happiness and unhappiness, misery
and joy. Is it any wonder that those who
are transported from sickness to happiness
and joy by Docld'e Kidney Pills are grateful
to that wonderful medieine ? And as Dodd's
Kidney Pills have cured people all over the
world, ono may judge of the muleitude
which bless the name of Dodd's Kidney
Pills.
Here is what a Quebec man says :
"1 thank Dodd's Kiddey Pills. They
cured me of Kidney Disease, which forced
me brew every hour at night. To•day I
am perfectly well. I sleep without rising.
You can believe me, I am glad to have re-
gained my health. Thanks a. thousand
times to Decides Kidney Pills."

One Time Huronites.
The editor of the Moose Jaw Times has
.been making a tour among the farmers of
that district and is telling his readers of
their prosperity ; how much land they
eultivate ; the kind of buildings they have ;
how much wheat they expect to have this
year and the amount ed wealth tesey have
accumulated aince settling in testa fertile
land of promise. He thus refeiti to two
former Huronites whom he came across, but
there are lots of other Huronites in his
baIlewick, such as the Gilmore's, MoCart-
nees, Thompeona and others, and should he
strike any of them, he will find them the
boat of good fellows :
"On our road we passed by the new home
of Mr. Grigg, who first came to the district
in 1900, from Huron county. Last 'spring
he brought his wife and family from the
east and bought 320 acres. He is well
pleased with his first year. He has built a
tine dwelling house and a good prairie
'stable," and this year has 53 acres of wheat
that will average 30 bushels, and 20 acres of
oats that will go about 75 bushels per acre.
He works his farm with four horses, and
keeps,- a couple of cows.
Mr. Wm, H. Beesley, formerly of Olin -
ton, Ontario, brother to Postmaster J. G.
Beeeteee, of Marlborough, is among the more
recent arrivals in the district. For twenty
yeara he had been engaged in the dry goods
business, and knows all about the ups and
downs, the work and the worry and un-
eertanties of business life. To make a short
story, an adverse wind caught his boat, and
William like many others went under.
When be emerged he remembered that his
beothers htycl advised him to come to Moose
Jew and farm. He now acted upon the
adviee, came west and landed in our town
in the spring of '9e with $2 in his pocket.
lle entered for a homestead at Marlborough
and worked for his brother the first year.
His wife Lind family arrived the following
December. The second and third years he
worked for Mr. Thomas Falconer, and this
year he has rented the Silver farm on
ehares, and besides has 21 acres of wheat, 11
of oata, le of glimmer fallow and 21 of
breaking on his own place. He also has a
three horse team and a cow. Last year Ms
new land averaged him 20 bushele and this
year his crop es fully up to the average.
trorn a dry goods merchant to a farmer is
a rather sudden change, but a dry goods
inert:bent who can dig post holes around 320
acres as a starter -as Mr. Beesley did -is
ne "tenderfoot," and we venture to predict
that ia a few years he will be among our
emmennsmesmommo
most prosperoiis farmers and another stend-
ing advertise ent for the 'poor man's
country."'
Questions for Women.
Are you weak, rime:me Irritable, easily worried

Papa Can Hold Near the Fire,
Too.
Now an inventer proposes to nudke things
agreeable for lovers, by putting cm the
market a superior kind of " paper for secret
writing," as he calls it, which will be made
of note size and packed in neat boxes, ac-
comps.nied by the requisite envelopes.
When a young lady evishea to write to her
heart's adoree, and is anxious that oultaiders
shall not by any nature become acquainted
with the contents of her missive, she simply
dips -her pen in a solution of salt and water,
with a little vinegar added, and in that
harmless and invisible medium inclites her
epistle.
On receiviog the letter, the fortunate
young man resorts to the old-time expedient
of holding it. near the fire, and, immediately
the writing becomes visile, traced delicate-
ly in lines of blue. Where this new inven-
tion claims superiority to anything of the
kind hitherto offered is in "its extreme
simplicity. Also, the paper is in convenient
cornrhercial.ebape; and, not least important,
the writing does not fade br deteriorete-a
common difficulty with most " sympathe- -
tie" manuscript.
The paper is prepared by soaking it in
soluble salts, and cobalt, after which the
cobalt is rendered insoluble by dipping the
paper into socliuro carbonate. The process
is so easyhthat any intelligent person who
chose to take the trouble might make the
paper for himself, while the household
pantry will furnish the materials for the ink
off hand.

Height and Weight of English.

Statistics have receutly been collected o
the height of 10,000 English boys and men,
seys the London Family Doctor. At the
age of 17 these averaged 5 feet, 8 inches;
at the -age of 22, 5 feet, 9 inches. At 17
they weighed 10 stone 2 pounds, at 22 10
atone e3 pounds. No nation in increasing in
heightand weight so rapidly as the British.
In 40 years the average has gone up for the
whole nation from 5 feet 71 Maher] to 5 feet
8:t inches. The average height of the
British upper class at 30 years of age is 5
feet 8e inciter; ; of the farm laborer 5 feet 7

Humors of Li -old Hunting.
The rush to a new Australian gold field
was like the -road to Epsom on the Derby
day; every conceivable kind of vehicle
might bei seen, from wagons to wheelbar-
rows. The diggees were clustered en a
favorite piece of land "like ants on a
mound. , Hundreds lay upon their backs
with outstretched arms, gripping perhaps a
pistol in one hand, a eheath knife in the
other, and claiming to own at least all the
ground they could enoompasa." Others
were filling bags with surface stuff. The
din was trernenduous, and to reduce all this
excited chaos to order in the allotment of
eight feet claims was the difficult task of
the commissioners. Some of the adventures
of gold -finding were curious. Two friend.]

, and find a nugget at their feet. They re-
solve to work the gully, so mark Roam trees
on their way home, Next day the start;
but alas 1 in the meantime a rush hes taken
place in the neighborhood, and the trees
have been felled. Where is their claim ?
They cannot find it. They found the nug-
[
get on April 17th, and on May 8th he dig-
gers were "shoveling gold from eneath
each each other's feet." The two friends
joined the rush, but could not get nearer
than within a mile and a: hell of tie rich
ground. The gold was found at a depth of
two feet six inches, and soon the friends
left, under the imprestion that it h d been
worked out. Another party took (owes -
ion, worked it deeper, and sent 40,000
ounces of gold to Melbourne by the escort,
May 20th being wet, the Mends etrtIled uo
the surface hills, where the best g Id was
being found ; and there, in the centre of it,

was the log they had sat upon and re tree
they had marked five weeks befo
that short time it had changed from an un-
known gully in the bush to the celebrated
Eaglehawk, where 90,000 men- Were at
work, and 120,000 ounces of gold were being
carted away per week. This was bad luck for
the -friends ; but they went on to German
Gully, and in ten weeks time they hid £800
apiece. One el the ourious phases co4nected
with gold finding was the Sabbatarienism of
!the diggers. The men who did nob l wimp-
ple to settle disputes by a fight, t,se men
who would rob others, the men whof drank
and gamboled, would not dig on Sundays.
They cooked and travelled and washed their
clothes ; they did all manner of work, but
from digging they T -abstained; and the ibad
feeling displayed tewarda some Ital ans at
Fiery Creek had it origin in the fact that
foreigners erhployed their Sundays in dig-
ging. ----Good Word.

The Benefits; Derived From
Exhibitions.
The Breeders' Gazette, of Chicago, in a
recent issue, says it has always earnestly
urged its, readers to embrace every oppor.
tunity to exhibit at fairs and shows and ex-
positions whatever product their industry
placed in their hands. It is not necesi]ary.
Unit an exhibitor must win blue ribbons

Questions for Women.

Papa Can Hold Near the Fire,
Too.
Now an inventer proposes to nudke things
agreeable for lovers, by putting cm the
market a superior kind of " paper for secret
writing," as he calls it, which will be made
of note size and packed in neat boxes, ac-
comps.nied by the requisite envelopes.
When a young lady evishea to write to her
heart's adoree, and is anxious that oultaiders
shall not by any nature become acquainted
with the contents of her missive, she simply
dips -her pen in a solution of salt and water,
with a little vinegar added, and in that
harmless and invisible medium inclites her
epistle.
On receiviog the letter, the fortunate
young man resorts to the old-time expedient
of holding it. near the fire, and, immediately
the writing becomes visile, traced delicate-
ly in lines of blue. Where this new inven-
tion claims superiority to anything of the
kind hitherto offered is in "its extreme
simplicity. Also, the paper is in convenient
cornrhercial.ebape; and, not least important,
the writing does not fade br deteriorete-a
common difficulty with most " sympathe- -
tie" manuscript.
The paper is prepared by soaking it in
soluble salts, and cobalt, after which the
cobalt is rendered insoluble by dipping the
paper into socliuro carbonate. The process
is so easyhthat any intelligent person who
chose to take the trouble might make the
paper for himself, while the household
pantry will furnish the materials for the ink
off hand.

Humors of Li -old Hunting.
The rush to a new Australian gold field
was like the -road to Epsom on the Derby
day; every conceivable kind of vehicle
might bei seen, from wagons to wheelbar-
rows. The diggees were clustered en a
favorite piece of land "like ants on a
mound. , Hundreds lay upon their backs
with outstretched arms, gripping perhaps a
pistol in one hand, a eheath knife in the
other, and claiming to own at least all the
ground they could enoompasa." Others
were filling bags with surface stuff. The
din was trernenduous, and to reduce all this
excited chaos to order in the allotment of
eight feet claims was the difficult task of
the commissioners. Some of the adventures
of gold -finding were curious. Two friend.]

place in the neighborhood, and the trees
have been felled. Where is their claim ?
They cannot find it. They found the nug-

gers were "shoveling gold from eneath
each each other's feet." The two friends
joined the rush, but could not get nearer
than within a mile and a: hell of tie rich
ground. The gold was found at a depth of
two feet six inches, and soon the friends
left, under the imprestion that it h d been
worked out. Another party took (owes -
ion, worked it deeper, and sent 40,000
ounces of gold to Melbourne by the escort,

known gully in the bush to the celebrated
Eaglehawk, where 90,000 men- Were at
work, and 120,000 ounces of gold were being
carted away per week. This was bad luck for
the -friends ; but they went on to German
Gully, and in ten weeks time they hid £800
apiece. One el the ourious phases co4nected
with gold finding was the Sabbatarienism of
!the diggers. The men who did nob l wimp-
ple to settle disputes by a fight, t,se men
who would rob others, the men whof drank
and gamboled, would not dig on Sundays.
They cooked and travelled and washed their
clothes ; they did all manner of work, but
from digging they T -abstained; and the ibad
feeling displayed tewarda some Ital ans at
Fiery Creek had it origin in the fact that
foreigners erhployed their Sundays in dig-
ging. ----Good Word.

than 40,000 pairs of h «an ears in Eng-

interesting conclusiOns For one thing,
It is ascertained that the ear continues
to grow in. the later d cedes of life. In
fact, it appears neve to stet) growing
until death. If one w II take the trouble
to look around in any ssemblage of peed
ple, as at a church, he will discover that
the old folks have ear considerably lar-,
ger than those of th middle aged. A
woman who has small shell-like ears at
20 years of age will b very apt to possess medium sized ear at 40 years and
large ears at GO.

In most people the two differ perceptibly
-not only in shape, but dso in size. Fre-
quently they are not placed precisely
alike on the head. Th age of a person
may be judged with reat accuracy by
the ears, which after outh is past as-
sume an increasing har hness of contour.
A. pretty woman. whos• first youth has

surely tell the story of he flight of time.
Then there is the li tle wrinkle that
