In his budget speech in the Legis- lature, on the Oth instant, the honor- able Provincial Treasurer .inade the following statements regarding the , liquor licenses in Ontand : The Provincial. Treasurer received $294,- 517 from licenses in 1893, which was $240 less than the receipts of the year before. Than . were 3,195 licenses issued last year, which was a • falihig off of 365 in four years. In1 1875 ono license was issued to eaeh 275 of the entire population of Ontario; while last year there was but one to each 633, or considerably1 less than, one*half the previous num- ber. • • In New York State one lieenSe, is issued for every 150 of the point- • lation,in Illinois one to every 246, in Ohio -one to every 248, and in Michi- gan ono to every 800. This shows. that Ontario has one-third tts many licensed liquor shops as most of the States. The munielpalities of the Provime received, last year, $287,64fi in all for their share of. the license fees. Each numleipal council . is empewers. ed, to raise the fee :above the statutory limit, putting the extra amount in its own treasury.

There *as once a tiny grain of sand that had lain quietly for years on the tar and gravel roof of•a big building. One day a brisk breeze came along and said to° the 'grain of sand : 1 " Why don't , you go out into the great world and get acquainted with the people? Nobody ever hears of you here. Come along and let us have a good. time." But the tiny grain of sand shrunk back and said: " I am such a little thing I should get lost. I would rather stay here." "Your modesty does you credit," rejoined the brisk breeze, -" but modesty does not pay in this age of the world. Come along." • • It was so urgent about it that the little grain of sand got up and went along with it. ' And the brisk breeze earned it gleefully over the cornice and down the street,. round the corner and into the eye of a dignified citizen who was climbing into his carriage. _And the dignified citizen took out his handkerchief and rubbed his eyes hard, and the terrifiedlittle grain of sand crept up between the lid and. the eyeball, until it found a spot it could crawl into and put itself right there. ° And all the rest of the day that dignified citizen rubbed his eye and groaned, and he lay awake all night and groaned, and the next day he wont to an oculist. And the oculist hunted alt 'over his eye and scraped it and said it was a serious ease, and scraped it some more and hunted all over the eye again, and. at last he found the little., grain of sand in its snug hiding place, and pried it out and charged the dig- nified citizen $25. And the dignified citizen took the tiny grain of sand home with Min and glued it to a piece of cardboard and put it in a gilt framis and hung it up on the wall in his library, and he goes in there every day and swears at it. • Never think yott are of no cense- quenrp, dear children, because you may happen to be little.—Chicago Tribune. • Skin Diseases are moreor less direot- ly occitaioned by had blcod.

This is the best time of the year in which to purify the blood, to restore the lost appetite, and to build up the entire system,,as the body is now pecu- liarly susceptible to benefit from medicine. The great popularity attained by Hood's Sarsaparilla, owing to its real merit and its remarkable suceen has established it as the very best medicine to take in the spring. It cures serofula, salt rheum, and alt humors, bilioumness, dyspepsia, headache, kidney and liver complaints, eatarrh, and all affections caused or promoted by low state of tho system or impure blood.
