Malcom. son, FRIDAY, BBB. 9, 1894. Tim Dominion Cabinet has decided not to disallow the Manitoba School Aot. They give as thegirinoipal reason for this decision that they allowed the Jesuits Estates' Aot hill when passed by the Quebeo Legislature and will follow this preosdenb in Manitoba school legislation. ON Tuesday a large deputation of temperance people waited upon Sir Oliver Mowat to ascertain bis views on the future of the Prohibition movement in Ontario. The Hon. gentleman informed the delegation that be would, if Premier, introduce a measure in the Legislature going as far with Prohibition as thePrivy Council his governmeub has the power. Wsru the many evidences of hard times and pressing want in nearly every Amer. Esso oity it is rather a noticeable ciroum- stanos to read of the anxiety displayed by the hundreds investing their $25 or $50 in securing a tioket to the reoent 9 minute "thumping matoh" between Corbet and Mitobell. Philanthropy is evidently an unknown word to these gentry. AT the meeting of the District Council, of the Royal Templars of Temperance the following resolution was passed :— "It was resolved that this District Connail of R. T. of T. of the County of Huron now in session desire to place on record oar appreciation of the grand re. sults of the recent vote taken on the Pro. hibition Plebiscite, which bas shown that the great majority of the people of Ontar. io are in favor of immediate prohibition of the liquor traffic, and that we, as 6 district council, are not in any way fav- orable to local option, or pay partial prohibitory law, but in so far as lies in the power of either the Ontario or Do- minion governments to grant prohibitory legislation, we will not in any way be satisfied with anything short of total prohibition of the liquor traffic. We would also recommend that a Prohibition Club be organized by the Royal Templets outside of their lodge and to procure as large a membership as possible, who will support only temperance candidates for sohool trustees, municipal council and the local and Dominion houses of parlia- ment." arlia- ment" Ten publta has been warned Soares of times to avoid all dealings with peratu. bulating traders who conte bo you uogoli- oibed and lvithonb, lntroduotion or room- mendation, and yet, in many oases, by their plausible story and infiatad bargains swindle the unsuspecting purohaser, in 110 line is this praotige more common those dajs then in shoddy ololhe and lipeolaolee. Of the former it is safe to say an enormous profit is realized on these goods. We know instances where epeotaole vendors have exchanged nom• plebe shame, both as glosses and frames, for tolerable good speataoles and pocketed 910 to boot. The law of Transient Traders could stand considerable amend- ment so as to estoh these sharks who make au easy living from the earnings of hard working people. If the publio would head the oft repeated advice and trade with responsible merchants and burnoose men these "gipsy" traders world soon have to go out of bnsineas.

ENyanan INTO Riaz,—•11[40y on Friday morning of fast week Mre. James Kitelr• ell, eon. 12, was palled home to enjoy the rest that awaits the Christian. She wee a native of Sootland, her birthplaos being Kirkcon, Gleniela, Forforsbire. Her maiden name was Catharine 11foDougall, Youngest daughter of John MoDougall. in 1847 deceased was united in marriage to James Mitchell, her now bereft part• ner, and in 1854 they sailed for Canada, the voyage occupying 9 weeks and 8 days. After a 5 years residence in Mltokell Mr, Mitchell and family removed to Brussels and then to his farm, lob 9, eon. 12, where they have continuously resided. Mrs.. Mitoliell was never very rugged in this country and had several sick spells in which her life was despaired of. Her death vms the result of consumption, with which she had suffered for the past tarp years, Up to two weeks before her death she was able to go about the house more or lees, however. For about '50 years she was a consiebsnt member of the Presbyterian church and her delight was to advance the Master's Kingdom in every way poseible, Otte of her greatest triumpke was the calm, settled repose in the Saviour of mankind during her illness. The subject of this notice was the mother of 1 son (who died at Potrolea in 1878) and 8 daughters (Eliza. passing away in 1882.) Rev. Jno. Ross, 13. A., conducted the funeral servioe on Monday afternoon of this week, the remains be. ing followed' to Brussels- cemetery by a large conoonree of old friends who held the deceased in very high esteem. Mr. Mitobeli and family have the sympathy of all in their bereavement. General Ne-ws. "Death to the bourgeoisie ; long live Anarohy I" were the last words of Vail. lant, the Paris Anarobist, who was guil. lotined Monday morning. He died with• out showing any sign of fear. Inventive genius has not stopped with the pbeumotio tire on the sulkey and bicycle, but bas been busy with the work of perfecting the ball bearings with such success that a few days eine a street oar, whioh was equipped with the latest in- ventions in ball bearings, that would do away almost entirely with friction, was drawn a distanos of several hundred feet by a single man tugging gently at three strands of ordinary . sewing thread at- tached to the oar. Perhaps a more in. teresting experiment was that of a oar- riage manufacturer in the West, who pit another style of ball bearings upon the wheels of a large ooaoh, to whioh four horeee were ordinarily bitched. Then he took a trained dog, and harnessed and hitched him to the pole„ when the dog drew a huge ooaoh easily around the yard. This sounds like fancy, but it isa fact. This invention should prove a great boon to the over worked oar horses, and it ie in the nature of a satire that it should come just at the time when hor- ses are almost universally disappearing from street car lines, and the trolley and cable are taking their places. INFLUENZA, Or La Grippe, though occasionally epi- demic, is always more or less prevalent. The best remedy for this complaint le Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. "Last Bering, I was taken down with La Grippe. At times I was completely pros- trated, and so difficult was my breathing thatmy breast seemed as If confined in an iron cage. I procured a bottle of Ayer'a Cherry Pectoral, and no sooner had I began - taking itthan relief followed. Ieottldnot be. neve that the elfeot would be so rapid and the curs so complete.
