The Saskatchewan Valley Very Highly Favored. An interesting feature of Western Those who Canada is Its climate. have made a study of it speak highly of it. The Canadian Government Agents are sending out an Atlas, and at the same time giving Valuable Information concerning railway rates, etc., to those Interested In the country. As has been said, the climate Is excellent. The elevation of this part of Canada Is about 1,800 feet above the sea, about twice that of the average for Minnesota. It Is a very desirable altitude. The country has a very equable climate taking the seasons through. The winters are bright and the summers are pleasantly warm. II F. Stupart, director of the meteorological service for Canada, says: "The salient features of the climate of the Canadian northwest territories are a clear, brtcing atmosphere during the greater part of the year, and a The medium rainfall and snowfall. mean temperature for July at Winnipeg Is C6, and Prince Albert 62. The former temperature Is higher than at any part of England, and the latter is very similar to that found in many parts of the southern countries." At Prince Albert the average dally maximum In July Is 76 and the minimum 4S. Owing to this high day temperature with much sunshine, the crops come to maturity quickly. Moisture Is ample In the Saskatchewan valley, being a!ut 18 inches an nually. It Is notabb that about 75 per cent of the mointure falls during the crop months. Thus. Western Canada gets as much moisture when it Is needed and with several hours more sunshine dally than land further south ' gets during the growing season, it Is not difficult to understand why crops mature quickly and yield bountifully, Is done Winter ends quickly. j during April and sometimes in March. Harvest comes in August, about the middle. Cyclones, blizzards, dust and sand fctorm are unknown. STOPS. At Least Owner of Instrument Never Knew Them.

An exceedingly Interesting animal now on exhibition at the zoological park In New York is the new blue gnu. It would be hard to Imagine a more animal. It ruggesta to one coming unexpectedly upon It, and seeing It for the first time, a sort of Impossible dream creature, a cross perhaps between a buffalo and a nightmare. To the buffalo belong the neck and the horns, but the tall and the hindquarters are those of a horse. The legs are a deer's legs, but the head resembles that of no other living animal. The specimen at the park came from South Africa, where the species ranges from Orange river north to Victoria Nyanza. There seems to be no doubt that the wild grotesqueness of the appearance of the gnu is a provision of nature to protect the animal. When frightened or disturbed these remarkable antelopes go through a series of strange evolutions and extraordinary postures, In order to enhance as much as possible the oddity and hideousness of their appearance and to frighten away intruders.

The latest craze In Ixsndon society is to make a pet of the small green French frog, numbers of which are being sent over from Paris for frog parties. These strange pets are not much bigger than a dime, and the average cost varies from $2 to $6, at which price the vender no doubt secures for himself a substantial profit. One would scarcely credit the frog with the possession of a vast amount of Intelligence, but ladies who have kept them are of the opinion that the frog is far from a stupid animal, for by the exercise of patience they can be taught many clever tricks. It Is a most amusing sight to see the quaint PERFUMED LAMPS EIGHT YEARS OF TORTURE.

I had to get out of bed from ten to twenty times a night and the loss of sleep wore me out. Indigestion came on and the distress after eating was terrible.

The use of pjrfume as a disinfectant is well known, and the "scented dandy" has perhaps more, hygienic wisdom than his detractors give him credit for. It Is he who Is trying to revive the use of the perfumed fountain ring, an article de luxe which may either be used as an ornament or as a means of a pleasant disinfectant in stuffy underground trains or in Insalubrious districts. The ring is an ordinary gold one fitted with a ball at the back. It Is filled by pressing the ball nearly flat, and dipping the ring into a cup of scent, when the elasticity of the ball draws the perfume into the interior till quite full. By the least pressure the wearer of the ring can cause a jet of scent to shed its refreshing aroma any moment he pleases, and he may thus act as a benefactor or a nuisance to those In his vicinity. The perfume lamp may also be used as another pleasant method of disinfecting a room. A ball of spongy p'atlnum is placed over the center of the wick, and Is fixed in its position by a thin glass rod, which is inserted Into the wick. The lamp is then filled with any scented spirit, aud when lighted is allowed to burn until the platinum gets red hot. The flame Is then blown out, and a pleasant odor fills the atmosphere. Big Price for Pen. One hundred and sixty dollars was paid recently for the pen used by the emperors of Prussia, Austria and Itus sla In signing the holy alliance treaty. For Growing Ham-mondspo- Foster-Mll-bur- Girls. West Pembroke, Me., March 21 Mrs. A. Ij. Smith of this place, says that Dodd's Kidney Pills are the best Mrs. remedy for growing girls. Smith emphasizes her recommendation by the following experience: "My daughter was thirteen years old last November and it Is now two years since she was first taken with Crazy Spells that would last a week and would then pass off. In a month she would have the spells again. At these times she would eat very little and was very yellow, even the whites of her eyes would be yellow. "The doctors gave us no encouragement, they all said they could not help her. After taking one box of Dodd's Kidney Pills, she has not had one bad spell. Of course, we continued the treatment until she had used In all about a dozen boxes, and we still give them to her occasionally, when she Is not feeling well. Dodd's ' Kidney Pills are certainly the best medicine for growing girls." Mothers should heed the advice of little reptiles jumping through a row Mrs. Smith, for by so doing they may of rings.
