Accordingly - Miss Alice • Porte and

on at a lively rate when setae $40 or $50

declatedqueen of the quilt: But jot_ as
the declaration was made seine one picked
upa $5 bill from the floor and stoutly:main-

The polls Were therefore opened again, and
in a few minutes it trifle over $90 was collect-

was declared elected. • But here =ether

he laid down in front of the poll clerk:
"There' he said, is $200,, and I have
$1,000 more at the -back Of it. Come On

A Power in the House ofParliantent.
Conspicuous among the most influential
men of the Dominion is Mr. 4. H. Metcalf,
member of Parliament from the city of
Kingston. Commencing life as a school
teacher, he has steadfastly worked his way
upward to the honored -position in business
and politics he now holds. Coming to a
personal matter we Would mention that
Mr. Metcalf was formerly subject to ex-
treme soreness of the chest, for which as
he himself says," I could find no remedy
but St. Jacobs Oil, the Great German
Remedy." In the following letter Mr. Met-
calf gives evidence of his appreciation, "
take great .pleasure in stating that I used
-St. Jacobs Oil for extreme awnless of the
chest, andlound it to be an excellent rem-
edy. I would not be. without it for ten
times its selling price; as a. family remedy
it certainly has no equal."
