GIRLS, Go WEST 1—An `exchange,
says:—If all that the Pilot Mound
Sentinel says is true, what Mani-
toba chiefly wants is an immi-
gration of healthy, hearty young
women es mates for lonely bachelor
farmers in that Province. The Senti-
nel has a truly . grotesque, picture of
the sorrows of these wifeless agricul-
turists. Not only are they denied the
pleasures of female society, but they
are practically, homeless, and they and
their farms are constantly on the down
grade. They are amiable and indus-
trious but unfortunate. They often
start on good farms, with the intention
of getting themselves a wife when they
are in- better financial position and
have improved their lands and build-
ings. This day, however, never comes
to many of them. [There's two sides
to this question. These young men
may be living in all the loneliness and
solitude of their limitless surrounding,
but what about the awful lonesome-
ness of the life that wives lead on the
prairies. In Brandon there is an in-
sane asylum with accommodation for
about 75 inmates. We were recently
informed that no.less than 60+ married
women were itr-s�ates .of this institu-
tion,. having Mt their reason just
through the desolate lonesomeness of
their prairie surroundings.—En. NEw

Talks on various Topica.
In the town of Brussels, not long
ago, a certain gentleman, for reasons of
his own, wished to find out who were
the members of the P. P. A. While
the organization was meeting one
night in its lodge room, he brined a
boy to wait at the entry, to see who
the members were, and report to him
the next morning.. When the boy
dayhe was asked
the next
turned up
what success he had. "Well," he
said "it was pretty late when the meet-
ing came out, and the first man down
the steps was my old dad; and as soon
as I saw him I had to skit home before
he got there, or he'd a whaled the life
outen me."
