Vance Green way shook his head. "Not yet, dear," he ex plained. "I have consid ered the matter carefully and I think it will be best to wait." "It won't make any difference in our marriage?" she pleaded. "We can get married to-morrow," he declared. "I want togo to town and get to work on my own hook." "There is nothing to prevent," as sented the girl. "It is not as though 1 had a lot of relatives to consult." "Then let's be married and get out of the way. It will make such a lot of talk," pleaded Vance. He found when he left the girl that he had not exaggerated. Already the news that David Greenway had dis owned his son had spread through the village, and the circumstantial reports of the row which had terminated in the dismissal had gained a wealth of detail in its rapid travel. David Greenway was the richest man in Greenvale, and Vance had al ready made rapid advancement in the local bank; an advancement not alto gether unconnected with his father's influence as the largest stockholder. He had resigned his position that morning, and the following day, after a quiet wedding ceremony in the par sonage of the church, he and Carol set out for the city where Vance would start anew. It was not an easy matter to find a position, even with the recommenda tion which the cashier of the home bank had given him, but in time Vance found a place, and they settled down to make a home in a tiny flat whose five rooms were scarcely larger than the dining room of the Greenway man sion. The months sped by all too fast, and even when Vance had earned a raise in salary, and had been advanced to a more responsible position, she would not move. "We'll save the rest," she declared. "It does seem so cozy here, dear. It'a our first home. We shall have much to be thankful for next week." "That's so," agreed Vance. "By the way, I've got an Invitation to Thanksgiving dinner, so don't lay in a turkey." Carol's face fell. She had been planning to make their first Thanks giving a notable one, but she tried to smile her satisfaction at Vance's an nouncement. Vance would make no explanation other than to say that, the invitation came from an old friend, ar.d the even ing before the holiday he came home early and helped her pack her pret tiest things in a suit case. Not even when they arrived at the station did he enlighten her as to their destination, but the next morn ing, as the train neared the old home and she began to catch glimpses of familiar scenes through the frost traced car windows, the tears came unbidden to her eyes. As they encountered the curious glances of old acquaintances, she was glad that she had let Vance persuade her to purchase a set of furs. She wanted to look her best for his sake, but she did not realize the attractive picture she made as the sharp breeze brought fresh color to her cheeks and lent sparkle to the brown eyes. Vance, sitting beside her, clasped his hands over hers. "We shall have much to be thank ful for this first Thanksgiving," he said tenderly. "But most of all I am thankful that you are my wife, dear." She smiled her answer, too close to tears to speak, but as they turned in at a driveway she found her voice. "There is some mistake," she cried. "Surely you are not going to your fa ther's." "Surely we are," he said with a hap py laugh. "Do you suppose that, any other Thanksgiving dinner would tempt me from our own home?" "But —you have made up?" she asked. "We never really quarreled," he ex plained. "I was dissatisfied at the bank. I wanted to be sure of myself; to know that on my own effort I could make my way. Father and I planned the dramatic scene for the benefit of the public. I did not tell you, for 1 wanted him to see that It was for my gelf and not my monfty that you cared. I was to have a trial for six months. Tin* probation ended last week," "And you are coming back home to live?" she asked. Vance nodded. "There Ik my father waiting to wei come us to oui new home," he Maid. "The honeymoon eudH with out Thanknglving, and dud has a new daughter the Imht that ever wbi—U taakt- him thankful, too." SOME HEMARKS FROM MINNE SOTA EDITORS. What They Think of Western Canada. A party of editors from a number of cities and towns of Minnesota recently made a tour of Western Canada, and having returned to their homes they are now telling in their respective newspapers of what they saw on their Canadian trip. The West St. Paul Times recalls the excursion of the Minnesota editors from Winnipeg to the Paciiic Coast ten years ago. Re ferring to what has happened in the Interval the writer says: "Thousands i of miles of new railway lines have been built, and the development of the country has made marvelous strides. Millions of acres, then lying in their wild and untouched state, have since been transferred into grain fields. Towns have sprung up as if i by the wand of a magician, and their development is now in full progress. It is a revelation, a record of conquest by settlement that is remarkable." The Hutchinson Leader character izes Western Canada as "a great coun- j try undeveloped. The summer out- 1 ing," it says,"was an eye-opener to j every member of the party, even those ! who were on the excursion through | Western Canada ten years ago, over j considerable of the territory covered this year, being amazed at the prog- I ress and advancement made in that ! short space of time. The time will come when Western Canada will be the bread-basket of the world. It j was a delightful outing through a ; great country of wonderful possibil- | ities and resources." Since the visit of these editors the Government has revised its land regu- | lations and it is now possible to se cure 160 acres of wheat land at $3.00 j an acre in addition to the 160 acres that may be homesteaded. The crops of 1908 have been splen did, and reports from the various dis tricts show good yields, which at pres- 1 ent prices will give excellent profits to the farmers. From * Milestone, Saskatchewan, i there are reported yields of thirty bush- j els of spring wheat to the acre, while '] the average is about 20 bushels. The quality of grain to be shipped from this point will be about 600,000 bush- J els. Information regarding free lands and transportation will be freely given by the Canadian Government Agents. WARNED OF THE CYCLONE. Telephone Just a Few Seconds Ahead of High Wind. Once upon a time a Kansas zephyr broke loose and meandered about the country, picking up various things. Bill Baumgartner's telephone, 20 miles away, rang: » "Is that you, Bill?" yelled an excited J voice. "Yes. What's the matter?" "This is Frank. We've got a cyclone down here, and it's headed your way. 1 Look out! I —" Frank's voice broke off suddenly. Bill heard a crash and a sputtering, then all was silence.

Many a talented person is kept back because of the interference of coffee i with the nourishment of the body. This is especially so with those i whose nerves are very sensitive, as is often the case with talented persons, j There is a simple, easy way to get rid j of coffee evils and a Tenn. lady's ex perience along these lines is worth I considering. She says: "Almost from the beginning of the use of coffee it hurt my stomach. By j the time I was fifteen I was almost a j nervous wreck, nerves all unstrung, no ' strength to endure the most trivial thing, either work or fun. "There was scarcely anything I could eat that would agree with me. \ The little I did eat seemed to give me more trouble than it was worth. I finally quit coffee and drank hot 1 water, but there was so little food I could digest, I was literally starving; j was so weak I could not sit up long j at a time. "It was then a friend brought me a hot cup of Postum. I drank part of it and after an hour I felt as though I had had something to eat felt utrengthened. That was about five y<*ars ago, and after continuing Post um In place of coffee and gradually getting stronger, to-day 1 can eat anil digest anything I want, walk as much as I want. My nerves are steady. "I believe the first thing that did mo any good and gave me an upward start, was Postum, and I use it alto gether now Instead of coffee."

CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY NOVEMBER 26, 1908. Truth a Quality 1 appeal to the Well-Informed in every walk of life and are essential to permanent success and creditable standing. Accor ingly, it is not claimed that Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is the only remedy of known value, but one of many reasons why it is the best of personal and family laxatives is the fact that it cleanses, sweetens and relieves the internal organs on which it acts without any debilitating after effects and without having to increase the quantity from time to time. It acts pleasantly and naturally and truly as a laxative, and its component parts are known to and approved by physicians, as it is free from all objection able substances. To get its beneficial effects always purchase the genuine— manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale by all leading drug gists. A HINT TO GOLFERS.

Letty was a little colored girl whose chief occupation was the bringing of water from a distant spring. This was very much to her discomfort, for the summons to fill the empty water bucket called her often from her ' play. One day her young mistress was giving her a lesson in Bible history, the subject being Noah and the flood. "Letty," she said, "what did Noah do when he found that the water was all gone?" Letty, who had been giving scant at tention to the story, replied with a sigh: "I spec' he sent after mo'." As He Understood It. Despite the imaginative nature of l the child, it has a decided tendency to see things in a literal sense. This is noticeable In the acquiring of lan guage. For instance, little Herbert was pleading togo out of doors to play. "When I see fit, you shall go," said his mother, decidedly. This settled the matter, and the lit tle fellow went off to his blocks. In about half an hour he returned, and Baid: ' "Mamma, have you seen him?" "Seen whom?" replied the lady, ut terly in the dark as to his meaning. "Why, seen Fit." Too Unkind. "Didn't you say there was a states j man in your family?" inquired my deaf j friend. j "Oh, no," I cried, hastening to cor i rect his peculiar impression; "I merely said that a relative of mine was one of the United States senators ; from New York."—Bohemian Maga | zine.

RHEUMATISM PRESCRIPTION The increased use of whiskey for rheumatism is causing considerable discussion among the medical frater nity. It is an almost infallible cure when mixed with certain other ingre dients and taken properly. The fol lowing formula is effective: "To one half pint of good whiskey add one ounce of Toris Compound and one ounce of Syrup Sarsaparilla Compound. Take in tablespoonful doses before each meal and before retiring." Toris compound is a product of the laboratories of the Globe Pharma ceutical Co., Chicago, but it as well as the other ingredients can be had from any good druggist. Like a Dream. A bubble of air in the blood, a drop of water in the brain, and a man is out of gear, his machine falls to pieces, his thought vanishes, the world disappears from him like a dream at morning. On what a spider thread is hung our individual exist ence. Fragility, appearance, nothing ness.

A prominent educator tells of a unique recommendation made by the board of examination with reference to certain questions put to a primary school in an Indiana town. "I desire to recommend Mary Wil son also for a reward of merit," stated one of the board in a note appended to the report. "Being very young, Mary naturally missed the point of all the questions in the examination papers, but her answers were in every instance so ladylike and refined that I think she should be awarded a medal." —Harper's Monthly. One Way to Cage the Brute. "I think that's a charming thing for your wife to do," the visitor remarked. "To sit down on the floor and take your shoes off for you after dinner."

She knows that once my shoes are oft and my slippers on I'll be too lazy to put the shoes back on and go down town."

Mark Twain and a party of friends recently went to visit the studio of a young sculptor who is coming rapidly into public notice. One of the pieces which was admired greatly by the ma jority of the party was the figure of a young woman coiling up her hair. Mark listened to the encomiums in silence, and when urged for an ex pression of opinion said slowly: "It is beautiful, but it is not true to nature." All expressed their surprise at this unexpected verdict and demanded his reasons. "She ought to have her mouth full of hairpins," replied Tom Sawyer's father. They Were Not Encouraged.
