It goes every- whera—gets right after the germs—kills them—heals the soreness—stops die. charge and h.oking—cares every trace of Catarrh, You're absolutely certain of care for Catarrh, throat irritation, melds or brocchitis, if you use Catarrh- ozene 25 cents and $1,00 sizes sold every where.

It has been said in criticism of the French treaty that it does not give the Canadian farmer any alvantage, The Weekly Sim; which stands for the interests of agriculture in political affairs, does not agree with this view. On the contrary it sees some very con- siderable and direct benefits to the farmer in the new trade agreement with France. The San says; "What will the concessions granted on French goods entering Canada cost ns? The only complaint we have heard against the reduction in the Canadian tariff on imports from France ,comes from some of those who are engaged in growing grapes in the Niagara Peninsula for wine•making. They fear that the reduction in the Canadian duty on French wines will interfere with their home market for grapes. This may possibly be tree, bat what Niagara grape -growers may lose in this way will be more than made up to them in the addition to the home market duo to the trans'er of the Harvest Trust's export business to Hamilton. "It th3 concession secured from Franco in the case of implements stocd alone it would of itself be almost sale dent to jastify the treaty; but it does not stand alone, Canadian bacon is to be allowed to enter France on payment of $2 63 per one hundred pounds, as compared with $4 39 on American; Canadian apples are allowed entry at 17.7 Dente per one hundred pcnnds, while American apples are charged 44 cents; and the tax on our dried apples 18 87.7 cents, while American stocks are forced to pay $1 32. Altogether, it is not too much to expect that the new treaty will, in a comparatively short time, prove the means of trebling our exports to the French market.
