General Agents THE LOVE OF OATS -r Why Normal, Active People Always Crave Ostmeal * Oats contain more body-building food than any other grain that grows. They contain more energy-giving food. You know their effect on horses. Oats contain more organic phosphorus than any other grain, and phosphorus ig the brain's main constituent. They contain more lecithin, and lecithin is the chief component of the entire nervous' system. That's why workers love oatmeal. That's why growing children crave it. Itissimply the call of nature for what bodies, brains and nerves require, But some oatmeal fails to meet these requirements, Only the richest, plnmpest oats supply a food worth while, The choic- est cals are sifted 62 times to get the grains for Quaker Oats. Only ten pounds are sgcured from a bushel, But these fine oats, when prepared by the Quaker proce ess, supply the utmost in oatmeal.

First events in new localities are slways of interest, and wery citen they are also gjgnificant For in stance, the first'jséttling of the new western north of Canada means the making o: good history, and as part of an important chapter in that his tory some plads is due an event so socially unique as the first white wedding. ! > In a little log-cabin at Twin Lakes wa: recently celebrated the first white wedding in the Grande Prairi district of the new western north events of this kind may be looked for in due course. The porth is getting more like other places. Bye-and-bye "there will be wedding style and "hy meneal pomp just like the rest of th: world, but the first wedding is the one that marks peal soeidl history. The houses in Geande Prairie, which is a part of 'thé famed Peace River country, are all log #ructures snd built after the same general plan. The walls are caulked with mud plaster, the roof is of wood or sods, the doors are of rough boards, and the whele dwelling is one story in height. But a-log house of this kind §s warm if bail' well, and a rea- sonable amount of housekeeping skill will make it cosy. In this®particulat boon neighborhood parties and such like, bit never before anything of the importance of a wedding. he ceremony was brief. A north- ern homesteader will not tolerate too much formality, and the man who will now go down to. history as the first white man, to getea white wife in the Grande Prairie isia splendid fel low. The bride fixed up a little, as brides always do, but there were no fancy incidentals on either side. That the groom appreciated his good for- tune is beyond doubt, for, instead of answering "I will," he said "Sure," aid that is infinitely more expressive as well as more western. The 'sky pilot" ac xd it at par and secretly registered his apprpval of the in novation. And so the names of Mr and Mrs. Frank Craiger .are added to the list of immortals. In Grande Prairie they head the list There were presents for the bride, who is immensely popular, a wedding sup- per for ail, and a honeymoon sleigh- drive in a big box-sled for the happy. couple and some of the party. /After all, weddings aresmuch whe same west or, east, north. ar south. he movement of people into the new north; bringing with it the whole round of social conventions and so- cial relationships, is one of the most significant features of our expanding Canadian life. he wonder of it docs not wear off~that away up there in the wilderness a settled and or- dered society is forming, making the waste places into a land of homes and home delights. The tide of set- tiement is only just getting under way. In the Grande Prairie district, for instance, there is at present a total 'population of only 250 white people-dncloding 113 bachelors and 41 women--but every week is making it larger. The trek is va and men and famili are moving 'in from everywhere. Many, like the man who got married, are from .across _the , and the influx of American settlers, most of them bringing cash and effects with them, will be more than usually large this year. ~The " approved time of going into the coun- try is in the last half of the winter, before the rivers and lakes break up, for the trall is then harder and smoother and easier to travel than in the summer. It is a picturesque pro- cession that ie kept moving along the trail all the way from Edmonton to the Peace River during this trekking season. It is made up of a long line of freight-sleds, propelled by stout horses or clumsy oxen and loaded with miniature department stores. Some of them are the supply teams, some of them the passenger cemches, the latter most often being little can- vas or wooden houses on runned, in which the people live, eat, slecp en route. In human interes' there is not any- thing in Canada that excels this pee- pling of the last west. The country itself is interesting, its future is in- viting, its settlement is a whole book of modern history. Homes, schools, churches, weddings ake transform | tha wilderness.--The Globe. =.

Interesting resminiscences of BL John, N.B., are being given in the Bt. John "Globe, by Clarence Ward. Telling 'of the treatment of people in the asylum for the insane;nearly four score years ago, he says: "Blood-etting and restramt appear to have ginyed a prominent part, and light bathing to have been con- sidered luxuries. Amongst the items charged for maintenance are the fol lowing: Paid' W. McBay, for twelve hogshead of water (for one month), one , fifteen shnllings. W. Ham- mond, for thirty pounds of rush lights, one pound. five shillings. Harvie and Allan, for eight tin bleeding cups and one tin pan, seven shillings and six- snee. D. Collins (saddler), for three and mufflers, one pound, fifteen shillings. .G. T. Ray, for twelve strait istcoats, at twenty shillings each, ive pounds. he twelve hogsheads of water above mentioned must have been for drinking and cooking purposes--'tea water," as it was called in old times. The item for rush-lights gives one th: impression of people living in the 'dark' ages--and the reason for their use must have been a rigid economy. It is difficult to conceive how they managed - after dark to follow -their occupations with np other light than that furnished by a rush light--which was made from the pith of a rush dipped in tallow, the flame of which was not much brighter than the glim- mer of a match."

That she was blind wai easily proven by a-simple test; her eyes also show in 'the photo taken, and she is so deal that she is not aware that a stranger was in the room till her husband told her, then by sitting close and speaking loudly she was mage to hear, and her talk was one of unusual inicfusi, even for such circumstances 83 WHOSG.LAL rated Mrs. William Grimsby of Neepawa, Manitoba, is in her: 99th year; her husband is ten years younger; togeth- er they form a pair that would arouse the 4nterest of any visitor, Like many of the old people for whoth Canada | is noted, they are Irish. Mr. Grimsby was born in Ireland ® years ago this summer ; he crossed the vcean at twelve with an sunt who died on the trip, and he arrived in Canada alone, finding a brother and other relatives near Kingston, Ont. After reaching manhood he was a sailor for fifteen yéars, both on the Great Lakes and ocean-going vessels from Quebec. Meeting Sarah Jane | Gallagher he married her and settled down on a farm near Perth, Ont, given her by her brother, and there they lived for over thirty years. When ver seventy he left for Manitoba and settled as a pioneer near Estevan, - | but after three years removed to an- swher farm near Neepawa, successfhl- ily operating it for twelve years. Last August he built a small house in Nee- pawa town and retired--but now has bought the house-moving outfit of the place, and intends to enter that arduous line of work next season. To talk to Mrs. Grimsby seems al- st weird, She was born before the battle of Waterloo; es to Canada as a chilkd--and here t reader will pardon a rather personal touch in this narrative, for she cas igned that her first teacher anada' was Charles Norris Manly, and she was de- lighted to hear that this man was the great-grandfather of her interviewer She further gave good evidaneé that her age was authentic, for she said that John Grange Manly, son of ( Manly, was teacher in the school at | "Oliver's Ferry," as she called | Smith's Falls, and was a year or go { younger than she was. By looking up {family records it 'was fou {Jéhn Grange Manly di {two years ago at the age of ninety {five. Apparently there were many jong-lived people amongst the settlers near Perth, for in Bowland's ceme- tery, where the Bellamy Road forks | toward Almonte, is buried Charles | Norris Manly, aged ninety-nine, {near his grave may also be noted "John Rath, 'aged ninety-seven, "Mrs. James Smith, aged one hur | dred years and three months," "John | Marshall, aged one hundred and three years," and 'Mrs. John Marshall, | aged ninety-eight." Mrs. Grimsby, though blind and deaf, has all mental faculties. as bright as ever, amd seems likely to live fur beyond the century mark.
