EVERYTHING WAS FAVORABLE
•ORRY HE DIDN'T MOVE TO WEST
ERN CANADA BEFORE.
Mr. Austin was a man who had
never had any previous experience In
(arming, but Western Canada had al
lurements, and lie profited. He got a
low-rate certificate from a Canadian
Government agent, and then moved.
.What he says is interesting:
"Ranfurly, Alberta, May 10-'08.
"J. N. Grieve, Esqr., Spokane, Wash
ington.—Dear Sir: After a dozen or
more years of unsuccessful effort in
the mercantile business in Western
Washington, In August, 1!)03, decided
to come to Alberta with a gentleman
who was shipping two cars live slock
to Edmonton. I assisted this inan
with the stock over one hundred
miles out in the Birch Lake Country,
Bast of Edmonton. Indeed, how sur
prised, how favorably everything coin
pared with my dream of what 1 want
ed to see In a new country.
"Had never had any experience In
(arming, but I was immediately con
verted into a farmer. And from that
moment have prospered. Swiec-tins
homestead near Birch Lake, I re
turned for wife and three small chil
dren and freighted out from Edmonton
In March following year we shoveled
a spot clear of snow and pitched our
tent and commenced operations, at
that time we had no neighbors. Four
years have passed, the locality is well
settled, two miles from railway sta
tion, with churches and schools, tele
phone and good road accommodations.
"\Ve are enjoying the privileges
(ranted to any rural district in
Washington. The Birch Lake Coun
try is no exception, this great trans
formation is rapidly going on In every
district in Western Canada.
"1 estimate that every quarter sec
tion In every direction is capable of
producing a comfortable living for a
family of ten forever. After paying
tor two horses and a cow, had just
910.00 to go on. Did my first plough
ing in my life. I was very awkward In
my work, but nature was glad and 1 was
abundantly paid for my efforts. Our
cattle has increased to about fifty
head, which was very profitable on ac
count of the abundanae of forage. To
(arm was compelled to buy about four
hundred dollars' worth of farm ma
chinery on time, and the payments fell
due last fall, and you may wonder how
I expected to pay for them when we
had such a bad year. 'Twas a little
bad for Western Canada or for a Mls
sourian. But is not 35 or 40 bushels
oats a pretty good yield per acre in
many Slates? Then the price of
grain went out of sight, so when I had
•old my crop I found 1 was able to
make my payments nicely, besides we
had lots of'feed. No one has any busi
ness raising cattle without growing
•rain, or vjco versa. As to the winters,
did not feed, my, cattle,, excepting the
calves, a fork ofhayjintll In March.
Have. found the' winter^ much more
pleasant than we did In Western Wash
ington. This .is strange and hard to
explain .but 'tis trtfe, nevertheless, at
«0 degrees below zero we have more
comfort than you would at 20 degrees
above, ,s6 still and dry—•with bright,
•unny da$s. My. w(fe says that the
only regret she has Is tfyat we did not
'come here ten" years 'ago, as we would
now certainly have' been.in a position
to retire frctm hard Work. Most wom
en soon become satisfied as neigh
bors begin to cbtne round them.
Have 98 acres' in crop this year,
besides two acres pot&foefc, which
have always brought uie fall*
price. We find a ready market for
everything we produce. To .the-.Poor
Man—Here ,1s a chance, to establish
'yourself. To the Rich Man—Here is a
chance to buy land for $10,00 to $15.00
per acre which will produce more crops
than a half, dozen acres of your $50.00
to $75.00 Iter acre land. And If not
very much mistaken, this' year will
prove an eye opener to those who are
a little sceptical. The trouble with
me is that I have so much to say so
favorable to Alberta 'lis hard to be
brief. Respectfully,

CHAPTER X.—(Continued).
The inspector laughed. No one ever
look Freddy Thornton seriously. Even
the magistrates, before whom he was
repeatedly being haled on the charge
of driving recklessly to the common
danger, found it difficult to look into
those child-like blue orbs and believe
that their owner could have been
guilty of the heinous enormities al
leged by the constable with the atop
watch. Freddy of the blue eyes In
variably got off with a nominal fine
and an Indulgent reproof that was
more like a benediction, where the or
dinary motorist would at the least
have had Ills license endorsed and
had to sell his car to pay the fine—or
so Froddy'B mends said. AH thai,
morning Freddy had been dashing ex
citedly about the town in his car,
championing l.athom to every ac
quaintance lie met, and jeopardizing
the lives of a half dozen harmless
foot passengers—which, if it did not
serve Lathom's cause in any appre
ciable way, seemed to afford an outlet
for Ills explosive indignation.
'If we've made a mistake, Mr.
Thornton, we're always ready to take
a hint," smiled the officer, unruffled
by the criticism. "We can't all be so
clever as you gentlemen amateurs,
you know! And who might the guilty
party be?"
"Well, have you thought of looking
for that stranger who was asking for
Philip Hume at the club the night be
fore the murder? But perhaps you
haven't even heard of him?" said
Freddy, scathingly. "He looked like
a wrong 'un, 1? ever I've seen one, and
he was mighty keen to get Hume's ad
dress. I should find that man as a
start inspector."
"You saw him, then. Mr. Thorn
ton?" asked the officer, still serene
under Freddy's withering lire.
'Rather! Horse-looking chap
didn't like the cut of him. It was
aftfci- i.he row in the club between
Hume and Iathom—not that it was
much of a row. I only wish Hume
had shown himself as sporting as
Lathom—I'd have helped to clear a
ring! Not Hume he preferred fight
ing with his tongue—I heard what he
said, and 1 don't wonder Lathom went
for him. I was sorry the two were
separated I'd have let 'em fight it
out in good old Hnglish style, and lie
banged to the club furniture! Be
tween you and me. inspector, I be
lieve Hume was glad when other
members Interfered. He left the club
at once in his motor. Two minutes
later a chap came and asked the
steward for 'Mr. Carr's' address.
When told there was no one of that
name known (here, he swore he'd
seen a man he knew as Carr just
drive away in a motor—Hume right
enough! He described Hume down to
He was told it was against the rules
of the club to give the addresses of
its members the chap said quite
airily that he could find out elsewhere.
From the way he spoke he wasn't
over keen on Hume. You take my tip
and find him."
The inspector nodded smilingly and
passed on. He had a .tolerant indul
gence for the dmniscient amateur he
encountered the species so often in
the course of his duties. He did not
think it worth while to acquaint Mr.
Freddy Thornton with the fact that
the police had already set inquiries
afoot respecting this stranger seen at
the club three weeks ago.
Freddy had not driven twenty
yards before ho pulled up bis car with
a Jerk.
Did you ever hear of anything so
absolutely scandalous?" he jerked out,
amid the grinding of brakes.
He had made the same remark a
dozen times at least in the last hour.
This time It was to Hilda Ruthen and
her brother. As he Jumped out and
shook hands, he noticed how' white
and full of trouble Hilda's face was.
He knew what old friends she and
Jack were.
"Never fear. Miss ROthen," he add
ed, quickly VIt will all come right—
that's the only consoling thought
about the whole miserable business.
Of course, one knew that the police
were too stupid to' arrest the right
man—that fact alone would be proof
of Jack's Innocence! If you ask me,
about all the police arc good for is set
ting traps for motorists and hatching
trouble for 'em with their cheap and
imaginative German stop watches!"
The charge is ridiculous it will
be dropped—It must be dropped!"
said Stephen Ruthen. There was a
set look about his face, and Thornton
thought his eyes looked queer. "We
are on our way to see Culverton my
sister is very anxious to hear what
he says about Lathom's chances. I
tell her the charge is so absurd the
case will never go into court." He
spoke vehemently, almost with the
emphasis of a man who asserts a con
viction that he would like to persuade
himself Into feeling.
Mr. Culverton was the Lathom's so
licitor and an old friend of the Ruth
ens.
"I'll drive you there," cried Thorn
ton. He helped Hilda into the c*r.
Her white face distressed, hl«fl-'-and

Through a
Woman's Heart.
By Sidney Warwick.
"Old Mr. Lathom has been with him
all the morning. They've retained
1 he best counsel, 1 hear, for the de
fense."
He followed Stephen into the car.
"I nearly ran Bonholt Hume down
half an hour ago—almost wish I had
done!" Freddy remarked, vindictive
ly, narrowly avoiding an old lady who,
In spite of his repeated hootings,
seemed bent on making him her ac
complice in a determined suicide un
der the car. "Jove, there ought to be
a law forbidding old ladies stepping
off the curb qn any pretext! I'd
prosecute 'em for reckless walking!"
he added, parenthetically, as the
the curl) in a great fluster and was
ihaklrif her umbrella excitedly after
the car. "What was I saying? Oh,
about Bonholt Hume—what does: hn

Lathom as he has been doing, and
magnifying his row with the dead
man, as though he wanted suspicion
to fall on him? I know I'd sooner sus

the marks of Lathom's list on his face, last seen of Hume. The police infer
ence is that Lathom, goaded by the
provocation, balked of returning the
blow he had received, had followed
Mr. Culverton. a gray whiskered so
licitor of a rather old-fash ion«»| coun
try type, took a view of the case that
was less reassuring than Stephen had
predicted.
"Of course, we are going to do our
beet and fight to the last ditch but
—well, I can talk freely to you. It's
no good blinking our eyes to facts
the evidence is very strong." And
he shook his head pessimistically.
"There was that unfortunate alterca
tion at the club, advertising the bitter
feeling existing between the two men.
Then on the next night they again
came to blows on the highway not far
from Hume's house, the obvious in
ference being that Lathom had gone
there to resume the quarrel, which
will tell against him. Upon the scene
a mounted constable and another man
come, in time to hear Lathom shout:
'Shooting's too good for a liar fi.nd
slanderer like you!' and to see Hume
strike a blow, not with his hand, but
with a stick—"
"The coward!" whispered Hild^
passionately, as if to herself, but* djf
ei man in the room caught the low,
tense words.
"It was a heavy blow, that made
Lathom reel recovering himself, he
sprang at Hume, only the blow never
fell the mounted constable parted
them. He says Lathom was blind
with rage—which is not to be won
dered a stick's not fair fighting—as
he went away. When he'd gone a few
paces he turned and looked again at
Hume, and said. 'I've not done with
you yet, you cur!' And that was the
Hume—"
"It's monstrously untrue," broke in
Hilda. Her eyes were passionately
alight.
"Of course, my dear young lady. I
don't for a moment think he did it."
said the solicitor. "But you see the
difficulty the police are confronted
with that of a motive for this crime
Hume seemed to have no enemies ex
cept Lathom Lathom, for some rea
son, he has been trying to injure by
spreading malicious reports. The po
lice know that—know that Lathom
had found It out. That in itself ar
gues enmity between the two men
the two altercations argue it and
Lathom's threats. Their theory is
that the act was committed in a fit
of blind passion under provocation
"But the revolver from which the
shot must have been fired,'" broke in
Thornton, Suddenly. "Jlow do the po
lice—"
The fatal points is that a revolver
is known to have been in Lathom's
possession that night," said the so
licitor. "That is the point the police
make so much of."
Hilda made a startled movement
and her face went whiter,
ened dread was closing down on her
as she listened for the solicitor's next
words.
"Lathom has always been fond of
guns and shooting, as you know—a
taste I can't understand myself. I
dislike to be in the same room as a
firearm I'm always wondering if it's
loaded. Lathom's an excellent shot
and fond of revolver practice, it
seems that on the night when it is
assumed Hume met his death Lathom
called at a gunsmith's in the town
about a revolver he had left for some
repair and took it away with him, and
presumably had it on him when he
met Hume. That fatal coincidence is
a bad bit of evidence. It is only proof
to me. believing, as I do in his inno
cence, how misleading apparent cir
cumstantial evidence can be. Jack
Lathom was oarrying a revolver that
night—and the bullet that caused the
fatality Is such a one as the cartridge
for that revolver would take."
Hilda fought back the choking cry
th^t rose In her throat. Her hopes,
founded oa Stephen's assurance that
no real evidence could be found to
connect Jack with the crime, were
Vk
ft
-i %igslfe5 &n38i&
crumbling. He was innocent—she
knew he was innocent, the man she
loved but how fatally strong the evi
dence seemed!
"I doubt if l.athom would have been
arrested but for the fact that he was
known to have had a revolver in his
possession that night—a revolver that
the bullet fitted," said Mr. Culverton.
"What fools the police are! And
have tliev succeeded in proving that
Jack also bought a pack of cards that
night?" broke in Thornton, impatient
ly. "A card was found in the dead
man's clutch—and the presence of
that card points to a deeper mystery
than the police will admit—afraid of
showing their own incompetence, I
suppgse. But I believe that, if we
could only read it, the clue to the
crime and the criminal lies in that
marked card found in Philip Hume's
hand. There's that man who asked
for Hume at the club under the name
of Can-—"
"We
a-e
making every effort to
trace that man," said the solicitor.
"Unfortunately, he has had three
weeks in which to make himself
scarce. And then there is another
curious fact. This morning the or
ganist of your church, Ruthen, came
forward to furnish the police with some
information, it seems that on the
night, and, indeed, at the estimated
honi- of the crime. Mr. Grale encoun
tered, close by the place where poor
Hume was afterwards found a man
and a woman under queer circum
stances."
The rector drew in his breath. His
eyes were bent feverishly ou the
speaker, immeasurably startled. The
blind man had spoken! What had he
said? How much was known?
"Whoever the mail was, Grale swore
he was not l.athom. He knows La
thom's voice well. If only we could
find out who that man and that wom
an were, and why they were there at
thai hour—"
"Then—then Graie couia give no
clue?" broke in the rector.
"He can only swear that the man
was not Lathom. He is positive of
that. The man, it seems, leapt for
ward, seizing Grale's wrist, and bade
him harshly not linger. The very act
has a suspicious look of guilt. The
woman did not speak at all—but he
is sure a woman was there. A very
queer business. But it was not until
the news of the murder that Grale at
tached any significance to it," added
Culverton.
They drove home from the solicit
or's office in Thornton's Panbard.
Hilda could not have walked she
seemed almost stunned as Thornton
assisted her into the car. For a mo
ment Stephen's gaze rested ou her
face he -withdrew it quickly, as
though the pain and horror struck him
with a sense of guilt and shame. He
had only to speak a word and Jack
Lathom would he free. Only one
word—but he had left it unspoken.
He wondered if Hilda would ever for
give his silence if she knew.
Scarcely a word was spoken during
the drive back. The hint of tragedy
he had caught in Hilda's face had sud
denly confirmed for Thornton what he
already had suspected—that this girl
and the man in prison were more
than merely friends, that Hilda loved
Jack Lathom. and with a delicacy of
sympathy he refrained from intrud
ing on the silence of her absorbed
thoughts. His own anxiety on La
thom's account had been intensified
by the lawyer's words. He realized
how black the case seemed against
bis friend.
In Stephen's mind was a tumult of
warring thoughts. He had not spoken
the words that would have proved
Lathom's innocence, the words he
alone could speak

TO TRAP A SNAKE IS EASY.
Even the Most Dangerous Yield to
the Wiles of the Hunter.
The capture of snakes is simple and
comparatively free from danger. In
the great swamps of India tliey are
caught in the early morning, when
they are stiff from cold. The natives
use nets for the purpose, or else press
a stick aga^ist the back of the snake's
neck, thus holding it fast until they
can put it away safely.
1
a
deep'
Another method is to surround a
spot known to be full of sn&kes with
nets during the dry season and set the
tindorbrush on fire. The snakes rush
for safety in all directions and fall in
great numbers into the nets. This
method Is often used to catch the
blsgest species of snakes. Hagen
bcck states that many specimens of
such monsters received by him from
Calcutta bear mirks of burning.
The giant snakes of Borneo fall a
prey to the native hunters after they
have gorged themselves to such an
extent on food that they can scarcely
move at all. Nets are then thrown
over them and they are delivered to
Hagenbeck's agents in baskets made
of bamboo.
Some snake hunters of India rely
almost entirely on their sense of smell
for ferreting out their victims. These
hunters set out iu the cold of the
morning, knowing, more or less,
where the holes are in which the
snakes live. By means of their keen
sense of smell they can tell whether
a snake Is at home. They then dig
it out, and, as it is half frozen still,
succeed easily in imprisoning it in
their baskets. Among the snakes of
ten captured in this way are pythons.

JOY WORK
And the Other Kind.
Did you ever stand on a prominent
corner at an early morning hour and
watch the throngs of people on their
way to work? Noting the number who
were forcing themselves along be
cause it meant their daily bread, and
the otherB cheerfully and eagerly pur
suing their way because of love of
their work.
It is a fact that one's food has much
to do with It. As an example:
If an engine has poor oil, or a boiler
is fired with poor coal, a bad result is
certain, isn't it?
Treating your stomach right is the
