So it came about that at a farewell din-| ner in Winnipeg he announced to a delighted audience that he had bought Bedingfield Ranch. This ramch, which comprises 4,000 chase. Better known as "E. P. Ranch," the ground bought by the Prince lies near the middle fork of the Highwood | River. The nearest market-place ie Calgary, -with its 50,000 population. This town has grown up in only twen- ty years. Red Indians as Neighbors. Nestiing in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, the B. P. Ranch is | in an ideal position for the rearing of prize cattle. It woul also make a good setting for am adventure story, because, at no great distance from Bedingfield, is the chief village of the Stony Creek Indians. This tribe honored the Prince, when he visited them, by making him their ing Star. For the ceremony the King's eldest son had to dress up in full war |" paint, and take part in a long and senious investiture, which incorpor ated all the tribal rites and customs. During this week the Prince will leave for his d trip to Canad 'which he is undertaking solely for the sake of passing an enjoyable month on his own ranch. Travelling as the Duke of Cornwall, he will sail to Que- bec on board an ordinary ocean liner, and, during his stag in British North America, he will not take part in more than one or two public functions, It is to be a complete "rest," and all Bri- tishers agree that he deserves it. It is certain that ell the ex-soldiers who are employed on the E. P, Ranch, and W. L. Carlyle, the manager, will be delighted to have the Prince with them, Once again Mr. Lane of Bar U will act as host to H'R.H., but Mr. Lane's task will not be difficult, as the Prince has insisted upon sleeping either in a log cabin or a tent His days will be fully occupied in roaming the acres and acres of grassland, and in helping his workers to perform the meny and varied duties' which keep a cowboy "at it" from sunap to sundown. pe 3 The Car's Baby.- The motor-car was a thing unknown to a native of an out-of-the-way part of Alaska, and he was astonished one day when he saw one go by without any visible means of locomotion, His eyes bulged, however, when a motor-cycle followed closely in its wake and disappeared like a flash around a bend in the road. 3 "Gee whiz!" he sald, turning to his | x vores oim = Tai Sn a i 1 HL 3 appears that Dr, Williams' they are taken the 'pilis through any dealer in medicine, or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' pls - Finding the Weight of Fish + by Measuring Them. In a camp where there are no scales simple formula for determining the weight of a fish from its length and {ts greatest girth In inches: Square the girth in inches; multiply the re- sult by the length in inches and divide the product by 800. L For large sea fish, like the tarpon, that are symmetrical in form the rule Lacres of prairie, adjoins the land own-| gives a close approximation to the 'ed by Mr. Lane, who arrenged the pur- [exact weight, and indeed for symmet- rical fish of any kind the formula is accurate enough to be useful. The fol- lowing examples of its accuracy are taken from the records of fish entered in the fishing contests of a sporting magazine: Astriped base that took a first prize was 49% Inches long and 28 inches in greatest girth. The weight as found by the formula was 48% pounds; by scales it was 48 pounds. A trout that took a first prize was 24 inches lohg and 14% inches in girth. It wae reported as weighing 7 pounds; the formule gives 614 pounds. In the rainbow trout class a first prize went to a fish that actually weighted 13% pounds and that was 33 inches in Jength and 18 inches in greatest girth, The formula' gives a weight of 13 pounds and 6 ounces. Even in the case of comparatively small fish that are symmetrical the formula gives fairly accurate results. For example, a brook trout that was 161% inches in length and 11 inches in girth weighed 2% pounds. The form- ula gives a weight of 2 pounds and 6 ounces. The Acld Test.

But after all a real musical Canada depends upon the musical education | of our boys and girla' while they are, in the public schools. And we have never yet had the proper recognition given to music by all our public schools, In fact, very few of them: "have even approximated it. The music club can render a very definite | service in its community by securing, through enlightened public opinion; | the proper recognition of music in the school curriculum. It can encourage the establishnient of music apprecia- tion classes; cl 'for the wtudy of applied instrumental music, and of public school orchestras .which will ultimately provide the material for the symphony orchestras, and will un- doubtedly make for the greater appre- clation of music as played by the come from Gil MONEY.

The problem is to knock the hat away so that the half dollar will fall into the ggblet. There are two ways in which the trick may be pre- sented. The first is to tell what is to be done and letting your friends try 'it. After.they have failed, as they will, you can show how easy it is to do it. The better way Is to practice the trick until you can do it well. Then do the stunt, relying upon your skill to hide the method by which the result is accomplished. Pretend to strike the hat two or three times as if you were gauging the amount of force needed and the -exact direction of the blow. When you strike, however, do not strike the outside of the hat. Strike in- side, as near the brim as possible. It you do it that way, the coin will fall into the glass. A little clever acting will persuade your friends that you struck where you pretend- ed you were going to strike--on the outside of the hat. Try fit.
