Many a veteran of the war, whose health was wrecked by wounds, ex- posure and privation, has found in Hood's Sarsaparilla just the tonic and blood reviving effects he needed. The following is one out of hundreds of of letters 11A. R. boys titrfrom e, G.�i a} prais- ing l ing Hood's Sarsaparilla for health re- stored yud strength renewed in de- clinia years. "C. I. hood & Co., Lowell, Mass.; "Dear Sirs; On account of the great benefit Flood's Sarsaparilla has been to me, I gladly write this, that others simi- larly afflicted may learn of the success of the medicine in my case and a positive cure for them. I had been A Physical Wreck since 1864, and had also been a constant amoker for 35 years. My wife purchased the first bottle of Hood's Sarsaparilla and I commenced to take it more to please her than anything` else. One bottle after another was taken with increasing benefit. The effect was of a atrenghening nature, toning up my whole system. After I had been taking the medicine a short time, I laid away my pipe and have not had any desire for the use of tobacco since. Hood's Sarsaparilla has thoroughly purified my blood and driven all poison out of my system. It has also done mo A Power of Good physically, and I feel like a new and free man. Previously, I had tried a good many different times to stop smoking, and to regain my health, but Iwas unable to ac- complish the former, so that my attempt for the latter was each time a failure. I am pleased to recommend Hood's Sarsapa- rilla as a blood purifier." J. R. MoFAnnena, Ex -Commander Ness Post, No. 81, G. A. R., Dept. of Kansas, Brownsville, Wash. N. B.

John 13uolianan Believed of 'Elis Pastorate on Rather 'Hari' Lines, Uptergrovo, Ont., Dec, 18.—Presbyter- ian church circles hero have been a good deal stirred up lately because of charges against the pastor, Rev, John Buchanan, made by Malcolm McDonald and his on Donald. The allegation is that Mr. Buchanan courted Miss McDonald and proposed marriage. On three occasions, it is claimed, the wedding day was set, but the ceremony was postponed at the re- quest of Cie pastor. It is said that in the third instance the arrangements had proceeded se far even that the cake was made. The prospective bride and her friends, it is said, grew impatient at the frequent postponements and appealed to the Presbytery. Mr. Buchanan said he was quite willing to marry the young lady, but his stipend was too light to properly support a wife. The committee at first proposed that Mr. Buchanan pay the MoDonalds $100 for their trouble in making preparation, but later decided to accept the pastor's resignation. Rev. Mr. Webster, the moderator, will on Sunday announce this accordingly. Miss McDonald lett home about six weeks ago and is ab present employed at Knox college, Toronto. She is a prepos- sessing young lady, about 27 years of age. Mr. Buchanan is probably 45. Another case of smallpox has broketl out in Montreal. Mrs. Thos.

Re Mortgaged Isis Brains for Ten Years and sifted the Mortgage. New York, Dec. 18.—The World to -day says Samuel L. Clemons (Mark Twain) is an honest man. "I will pay fifty por cent. of your claims," he said to the creditors of Charles L. Webster & Co., book publishers, of No. 67 Fifth avenue, of which firm he was a partner in August, 1895. "And I ask," he continued, "that you trust to lay honor to pay the other fifty per cont, as fast as I can earn it, The law recognizes no mortgage on a man's brains, but honor is a harder master than the law." So Mark Twain started out to lecture for the benefit of his creditors. Ile argued that he could have the last dollar paid in four years, and thea, at the age of 64, he couldmakea "fresh and uneuetambcred" start in life. It became known yesterday that Mr. Clemens had kept his promise. Mr. Clemons would, it has been said, be a wealthy Mall to -day wore it not for business transactions. A MIGHTY CHANGE, Made Well and Active After Years of Suffering. PAINE'S OELERY OOMPOUND WAS THE GREAT LIFE- GIVING. Not Even as a Gift. Toronto, Dec. 17.—David Walsh, an Ottawa hotelkeeper, who was convicted of giving liquor to a friend in a private part of his hotel on a Sunday in last March, has lost his appeal to the Divi- sional Court here. He was convicted by the Police Magis- trate at Ottawa, under a section of the Liquor License Act, which prohibits the -sale or other disposal" of liquor during certain hours. The court holds that the words "other disposal" include such a gift as this by Walsh, and confirm the Police Magistrate's conviction. New life, health, vim, energy and activity re some of the blessiugs Paine's Celery Compound bestows on those who are now ht'lpless, weary and half dead. If you are a martyr to rheumatism, tortured with neuralgia, distressed with dyspspsia, .or laid low with kidney trouble,that infallible life -giver, Paine's Celery Compound, will restore you to perfect health and give you a long lease of life. Mrs, Page, of Arnprior, Ont., after years of suffering, experi- enced the happy and mighty change that Paine's. Celery Compound alone can give to the afflicted. She says, " I have been for many years a great sufferer from rheumatism and a com- plication of other troubles. About a year ago 1 was prevailed upon to try a eourae of Paine's Celery Compound, with a result so marvellous that my most intimate friends and neighbors could scarcely believe me to bo the same woman. Formerly 1 could only move about with the greatest caution; now I am well and active and my gen- eral health is good. I believe Paine's Celery Compound will do all that is claimed for it."

Postal Notes. Ottawa, Dec. 20.—The Government is going to adopt the postal note system in vogue in the United Kingdom. Mr. Mulock has been studying the question for some months and is now contider- ing the details with a view of bringing thesystem into operation on July 1, 1898, Paper notes about the size of a bank bill will be printed on thin linen paper of the following denominations: Tweuty, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 and 90 cents, $1, $1.50, $2, $2.50, $B, $4 and $5. The cost of obtaining these notes will be one cent each up to 40 cents, two cents between that figure and $2.50 and three cents each for all above that. These postal' notes will replace the post office money orders for the transmission of all small sums through the post. The present money order system is a cumbersome and indirect method and wastes much time. It will be continued, however, with some im- provements, for the transmission of sums up to $100. These postal notes will serve a great public convenience, doing away with the payment of ac counts in postal stamps, the postal notes being payable at any money order office without the identification of the payee or any condition other than the presentation of the note. It is expect- ed that the rate, low as they are fixed, will give a small profit. The system is very popular in England. The number of notes issued in 1881-2, a year after the system was established, was a little over 4,000,000, which had increased in 1886-'? to 67,000,000 notes. Mr. Mulock is to be congratulated up on his progressive policy. Well hils ren A LARGE SUPPLY OF SHANKS, PIGS FEET, SPARE RIBS, TENDERLOIN and other Offal for sale (:HEAP.
