During the year 215 prisoners N felt*, released on parole, 20 were par- 's C d and six es;.aped from the British toe umbia Penitentiary. La Grippe starts with a sneeze—and ends with a eomplioation of troubles. It lays the strong man on his back; it tortures him with fevers and shills, headaches and backaches. It leaves him a prey to pneumonia, bronohitis, oonsumptian and other deadly diseases. You can avoid La Grippe entirely by keeping your blood rich and red by the occasional use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pitta, If you have not done this, and the disease lays you low, you oan banish all its evil after effeote with this eamo great blood -building, nerve restoring medicine. Here is proof of the wonder- ful power of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills over disease. Mr. P. E. Paulin, Oolleotor of One - tome at Qaragnet, N. B., says:—"In the winter of 1907 I had a very severe. attack of la grippe, whish b e me down entirely. I had to take • bed for several weeks.

QosThe Senate vacancy in the Province Ontario was filled at Friday's meets ,g of the Cabinet Council. Mr. *dentine Ratz of Parkhill, who repro - t led North l3tiddlesex in the last iament, was appointed to eueceed Ile tate Senator Merrier. The new netor will represent in the upper .,..,1onee the German element in the popn- "ition ot the Province. There are still ea. Senatorial vacanies to be filled, E lava in Nova Scotia and one in Mani- oba. It is unlikely, however, that hese • appointments will be made for tome days yet. The Nova Scotia haaoarmies await Hon.

I sent for half a dozen boxes and began to use them at once. When tak- ing the second box I began to feel quite a change in my condition, I was able to walk about the house and my appetite was improving. From that on I gained strength every day, and before the six boxes were done I was able to return to the office and attend to my work. Now I enjoy the beet of health, and although 63 years old, am feeling quite young. I think Dr. Williams' Pills a splendid medicine for troubles of this kind." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are a blood - making, nerve -restoring tonin. In this way they cure anaemia, indigestion, rheumatism, neuralgia, St. Vitus Dance and partial paralysis. They are the best medicine in the world for the ailments of girlhood and womanhood.

With the temperature well below zero, buyers and sellers were not disposed to haggle too long over prices, business was trans- acted in short order, and the compara- tively heavy run of cattle soon disposed of. With the usual few exceptions, the quality of offerings was not high, though including some fair loads. Ohoice heavy export cattle were few, though there is good demand. Ohoice butcher cattle are wanted, and com- mand good prices. Cattle Doming under the head of light export are brought up for the local butcher trade. The cold weather appears to be fa- vorable for the meat trade, and local wholesale men are laying in good stooks. The run was 70 loads, with 1,600 heed of cattle, 341 cheep and lambs, and 29 calves.
