tor settlement. They report that the
choicest land met with in N'ipissinge
Parry Sound or the Algomas is at Po-
Wassen, near the French River on the
south shore of Lake Nipissing. The
finest township is Henswortb, which,
however, is included in the timber
lirolt of Mr. Frazer and so is closed to
settlement. Patterson and Hardy are
also fine settlements. There will be
considerable emigration from Middle-
sex this fall to that part of the coun-
try.

The transient traders' byeaw is a
source of trouble and worry to many
towns. The town of Barrie is the
latest to suffer. Last week a decision
was handed. down by Chief Justice
Armour and J ustice Street on a
motion to (plash a summary conviction
by the Barrie magistrate for carrying
on a business without being assessed
and without paying the transient
trader's lieense fee. The defendant
held the by-law was ultra vires, that
elle was paying reef: and tame theugh
not assessed. The judges held that
the defendant, a married woman in
business under the name of Danford,
Roche ee Co., did not come under the
by-law as it was not alleged that she
was a transient tra.der or occupied
premises ally for a temporai7 period.
THE PEOPLE WERE HOAX RD.
"I have learned enough in the short
years that I have lived to know that
we need. to be very liberal and very
charitable in our judgment of -the
opinions and. beliefs of our fellowmen
that we need to take a comparative
charitable view, but I do say this,
that when the right hon. gentleman
conies here to -day and states what he
believes to be the unalterable opinion
of his province, and then his position
on the idea that unless you can have
a. complete national prohibition you
cannot have it by sections, he speaks
the last word to the prohibitionists of
this country, and tells them plainly,
abandon ell hope, ye who entered
under my banners in 1300.
"Whatdoes the right hon. gentleman
state? He states that prohibition is
an impossibility in this country so far
as he reads the signs of the times.
"He stands up here in 1900 and says
the most I can promise to do in aid of
the cause is,
if the people will all agree
and say that they want it, is to re-
enact the Scott Act.
"That is the position tbat be takes.
"If be had been candid he would
have taken that position in 1896, and
the people would not have been de-
ceived, and there would not have been
that period of turmoil which has re-
sulted in nothing, in worse than noth-
ing." -.Or. Foster on prohibition, July
3rd.
Sir Wilfred Laurier has refused to
greet a prohibitory law, and declares
that temperance men must continue
in the future to work along purely in-
terne Lionel lines.
Tie: Hon. Hugh John Macdonald,
premier of Manitoba, is catteing intense
exciteinent because he is actually try-
ing to fuifill his ante -election promises.

Bridge, a great sufferer
from pain in the back.
Doan's Kidney Pills completely ante
permanently cured him. '
Mr. P. L. Campbell, the well-known gen- •
eral merchant of Fortune Bridge, P.E.I.,
was troubled with severe pains in his back -
and hips for over two years.
At length he becameaware of the fact
that backache was simply a symptom of "
kidney trouble and did not hesitate tombs
taking Doan's Kidney ,Pills, and was;
promptly and permanently cured.
Here is his statement: "I was in an.
awful state for two years with pains in my
back and hips. Some mornings these
pains were so severe that I couldn't stoop
to lace my boots. I started taking Doan's
Kidney Pills, and one box so completely
cured me that 1 have been -perfectly wetl
for over ayear ;tow and free from therm
'east trace of pain."
