Tion elections in the 01d Land will be

as one of the questions at issue.

of them.
Tan0NTo Sobool Board is considering
the very important question : "Should
lady teachers be allowed to wear bloom-
ers while bicycling ?" Trustee Bell is
fairly chocked at their donning men's
wearing apparel on the street. We
wonder if Mrs. Bell wears any of Mr.
Bell's wardrobe at home ?
Tion Dominion Parliament don't ap.
pear to know whether they are on foot or
on horseback these days. Baokbone ap-
pears to be the element most wanted in
the Cabinet. This putting off the evil
day is a game that usually does not work
and the sooner the Manitoba sobool ques-
tion is fairly and manfully met the gaiok
er the ratepayers of the Dominion will
come to the conclusion that they ere
represented by men, nob puppets that
dance when the string is pulled.

fans of free passes on the railway and
their $1,000 indemnity the above and
many other such charges is little short of
highway robbery. No wonder the public
debt oontinnes to grow.
A
now months ago thousands of dollar
were expended over the revision of the
Dominion Voters' List because an election
was to be held forthwith. Now a Jan -
nary session is talked of and the list will
be a year old before an election, thereby
either diefranohising thousands or nom•
pelling increased expense by the publi-
cation of another list. If somebody
would tell the Dominion Cabinet the
name of the station they are at it would
be a kindneee. They made a long stay
at "Wobbleville" in the hope of securing
a train to the town of "Decision" but all
trains appeared to be cancelled or the
French switchmen sent it toward Quebec.

there may be differences of opinion as to
the exact meaning of the reply in ques-
tion, the Government believes that it
may be interpreted to bolding out some
hope of an amicable settlement of the
Manitoba sobool question on the basis of
possible action by the Manitoba Govern-
ment and Legislature, and the Dominion
Government is most unwilling to take
any notion which can be interpreted as
forestalling or precluding snob a desir-
able consummation. The Government
has also considered the difficulties to be
met with in preparing and perfecting
legislation on so important and intricate
a question during the last hon of the
present session. A communication will
be sent immediately to the Manitoba
Government on the subject with a view
to ascertain whether the Government is
disposed to take a settlemeut of the guise.

Parliament. A eesaion of the present
Parliament will be called together to
meet not later than the first Thursday of
January next. If by that time the Mem.

grievance of the minority the Dominion
Government will be prepared at the next
session of Parliament, to be called se
above stated, to introduce and press to a
conclusion such legislation as will afford
an adequate measure of relief to the said
minority, based upon the lines of the
judgment of the Privy Connell and the
remedial order of the 21st Match, 1898."

There were probably a score or more of

However, four babies were presented to

After scrutinizing each very carefully
and dandling them up and down a bit,
ane of the judges was observed to kiss
the pretty little tot dressed in blue, and
at the same moment a broad smile
suffused Henry Ziemnn's countenance,
and you oan guess the rest. The high

Perhaps there is no healthier people on
the continent of America to -day than the
residents of the picturesque village of
Merrickville, situated on the Rideau
river, and the reason is not so much in
its salubrious climate as in the wise pre-
cautions taken by its inhabitants in
warding off disease by a proper medicine.
The greatest favorite is Dr. Williame'
Pink Pills, and many are the testimon-
ials in regard to their virtues. Your cor-
respondent on Monday last called ab the
residence of Mr. and Mrs. 11. Easton, and
interviewed their daughter, Mies Hattie
Easton, a handsome young lady of 20
years, who is known to have been very
low and has been restored to health by
the use of Pink Palle. "Yes," she said,
