Unfortunate- ly,' being on the opposition side his work is principally educative, as the government usually • kills then off on the scere ,of being "premature," or for sumo other ' reason. His latest proposal is a bill to amend the Immi- gration act by preventing the expos- ure for sale of revolvers and knives. While . the intention is to discourage the belief among newly arrived immi- grants that the carrying of these wea- pons is permitted in Canada, such an enactment would be of general ben- efit to every community. It is a strange thing • that, in a law abiding country such as this, there is scarce- ly a hardware storeor a •pawnbrok- er's shop 'whose windows' are not a miniature arsenal of pocket:revolvers and sheath. knives. Considering that none but hunters have any. legitimate use for sheath knives, and: that -no- body issupposed to carry revolvers except the police, the preminenee giv- en to these articles in shop windows is most misleading, . and is no 'doubt responsible for tempting young Cana - dins • and .foreigners to purchase and carry nein, .who will otherwise nev- er. think ' of it. • Another encour- agement •'is afforded by the almost nominal punishment meted .out in the police court's. to persons round guilty of carrying •concealed weapons. In any • city or town in Canada the c•ar- rying of a loaded revolver or a sheath knife •should be sefilcient to convict a defendant of criminal in- tent. •• They are not necessary for de- fence, aed therefore must be carried for •purposes•or offence. As a rule :they. are found on • the persons of roughs or criminals who havo been arrested on other charges, which makes the .prohibitions still more binding, and. they should be given the limit of the law, instead of beaig let oft with the Confiscation of the weapon • or a comparatively small fine,—Ottawa Citizen. From a Shadow to Robust Health -Is— the— Change-L•Dree -Pink- Pills Made in ae fNew Bruns- wick Woman. Anaemia—bloodlessness—is a trouble confined largely •to women and growing girls. Its victims are pale; they lose all strength—the least ex- ertion greatly fatigues • them and they, suffer continually from head- aches and depressed spirits, Nothing will cure, anaemia so quickly or. so surely as Dr. Williams' Pink Pills— they, have cured thousands of cases, the whole world. They do this be- cause they make good blood. Among those .cured brthese pills is Mrs. T. not only in Canada but •throughout Chalmer Hartley, East Florenceville, N.B., who says : "At the age,of Si)C- tecit I fell away to a there shadow I had scarcely any blood and suflered from all the distressing symptoms of anaemia. Doctors did not help me in the least, and acting on the advice of a friend I began taking Dr. Wile Ienin's Pink Pills. They effected a remarkable', change in my condition; indeed I really believe they saved re,y, life, as I lhave been well and strong ever since I took them. 1 also re- eommended the Pills to a neighbor's daughter who was similarly run down, and they also completely re- stored her heelth," Every woman and growing girl should take Dr. Williams' Piffle Pills occasionally., If you are ailing from any of the many troubles which af- diet your sex they will cure you ; if you are not ailing they will protect your health and keep you well and strong.
