NEW Burri'swxeis Province has had
manly a lively hustle in election
campaigns over the Seott Act, The
other day its repeal wise voted on at
Fredericton and for the fifth time
the act was upheld, It was 20 years
since it came into force in the above
mentioned city. In the majority of
the counties in New Brunswick the
act holds sway.
WITH the incoming of the mouth of
May one huuch•ed hotel bars were
closed in Ontario by the passage of
Local Option by-laws, .Howiek town-
ship, Haien Co., being in the number.
Four licenses are cancelled in Howick,
viz 2 at Gerrie, 1 at Fordwieh and 1 at
Delmore. In the majority of cases
the hotels will be kept open for the
accommodation of the public.
DR. Rxaxs a medical genius of
Munich, has discovered a means by
which a person's stomach may be
lighted up for medical examination by
a small electric'bulbinserted in a tube.
With the X ray appliances and
electric lighting the interior depart-
ments
epartments will soon be as easy of access as
the exterior. Physicians claim the
new discovery will aid materially in
casesof cancer'and diseases of that
type.

to
who scored the Liberal
Government
and used his influence for the return
of Hon. Mr. 'Whitney, four years ago,
in a letter to the press says :-"When
the Government passedthe three-fifths
clause of the Local Option act they
were guilty of reactionary legislation.
Ever since Ontario became a Province
the majority in a municipality has
had the t o right c
1g o decide upon the
granting of licenses. These rights
were firmly established and founded
upon a sense of British justice and
equality. Why have the Government
tampered with them 1"
MoimAY, June 1st, will be the date
of the Nominations for the elections,
June the 8theiu
b g the eventful day
when the electors will go to the polls.
Commercial travellers may be ac-
commodated by the day and elate but
several Methodist Conferences, at
which:hundreds of ministers and lay-
men are expected to attend, will be in
session on June 8th. Bro. Hanna
can't surely be posted on the rules and
usages of his church. It was only the
other day in Parliament he misquoted
the late of the church in attempting to
smooth out the wrinkles in the 8j5
handicap.
A HoT time is on the political carpet
in Toronto in an attempt to peacefully
get 8 Conservative candidates in the
field for the coming election. If the
Liberals nominate their fullcontingent
and the Labor presents their plat-
form in double quartette form Mr.
Whitney may find that even Toronto
voters don't understand the A. B. C.
of untangling the political skene.
Why could not a few more members
be granted to the Provincial capital,
plus the Cabinet ministers who reside
there, then the Queen city could boss
the whole job for the Province. Hog

Bay.

Last week's rain and snow left the
Woodbine race track at Toronto in

rases.
Dundee has dropped out of the Sen-
ior Foot Ball thereby leaving Sea-
fbrth alone in the field in the W. F.
A. The hustlers of Dundas will play
Intermediate so as to secure more
games.
Burns, the Canadian champion
bruiser, is called a faker by Jack
Palmer who says Burns paid him £500
to allow him to Will. Palmer should
be ashamed to tell the story if, even
true.
There will be no shortage of teams
in the Western Foot Ball Association

struggle.

St. Andrew's church, Stratford, has
organized an athletic club and will

Stratford has 5 or 6 foot ball teams
now.

Tired nerves, with that "no ambi-
tion" feeling that is commonly felt
in Spring or early Summer, can be
easily and quickly altered by taking
what is known. to druggists every-
where as Dr. Shoop's Restorative.
One will absolutely note a changed
feeling within 48 hotus after begin-
ning to take the Restorative. The
bowels get sluggish in the Winter-
time, the circulation often slows up,
the Kidneys are inactive, and even
the Heart grows decideclly weaker.
Dr. Shoop's Restorative is recognized
everywhere as a genuine tonic to
these vital
organs. s It builds flys
