We condemn this system as ex- travagent and wasteful, and we pledge ourselves to the proper conservation of our timber re- sources and a proper system of reforestation under expert guid- ance , This system of reforesta- tion we would also apply to the waste lands and abandoned areas of the Province not fit for farm- ing.

Thursday night after the conven- tion a number of Liberals entertained tire Dominion Leader, Mr. D. D. Mc- Kenzie, at a private dinner at the Ont- ario Club. Addresses were delivered by Mr. McKenzie, Mr, Proudfoot, Mr. Dewart, A, J. Young, C. M, Bowman, M. P. P, and Mr. Duncan Ross, M. P. Different speakers, it is understood, emphasized the desirability of unity in the party, and urged Mr. Proudfoot not to consder his defeat as a personal natter, contending that it had been brought about more by the efforts put forth by Mr, Dewart and Major J, C. Tolmie, who had been active for some weeks before the convention, and had consequently had a good start on the former Leader. Mr. Proudfoot when he spoke pointed out that he had been in politics lot; 40 years, having teeken part in the election in 1878, anti beets L80e1. Of the so-called Liberal parry for two years in the Legislature. Now that he had been repudiated by tine Province he wanted to be present at one more Liberal meeting, which !bas the dinner, and he declared it would be the last Liberal meeting Ise would attend. The former Leader also took very strong objection to the remarks made at the convention abort Hon. N. W. Rowell, stating that he considered the President of the Privy Council was one of the brightest minds in the public life of the Dominion to -day. When Mr. Proudfoot sat ,down a hush fell upon the gathering for several moments. , Mr, C. M. Bowman, in his ad- dress said that he had been in the party for 21 years, and had thus conte of age. Ile announced that if there were an election before the next ses- sion of the Legislature he had sat in the House for the last time. TIRED PEOPLE ARE DEBILITED Full Wealth and Strength Can Only Be Regained by Enriching the Blood, People who are tired all the time. and never feel rested, even after n long night in bed, people who cannot regain weight and strength, who feel no joy In living, are in a condition described by doctors es general de- bility, A medical examination might show that every organ in the body is acting normally, but the pallor of the face will usually show that the blood Is weak and watery, This is the root of the trouble, Debility Is a loss of vitality, not affecting any one part df the body but the systesn generally , The bloody goes to every part of the body and the use of a blood tonic like Dr. Wil- liams' Pink ,Pills quickly tones up the whole system, The first sign of returning health is a better 1ippettte, an improved digestion, a quicker step and better color in the cheeks.

The nerves are quieted, Sleep becomes more refreshing and with persistent treatment and a good diet the patient is once more enabled to enjoy life, The case of Mr, Wee', Doxtater, R. R. No, 4, Tilsonburg, Ont., illustrates :the great value of Dr, Williams' Pink Pills in cases of this kind, Mr. Doxtater, says,—"i was troubled with pains througout my whole body, was extremely ner- vous, did not sleep at night, and was further afflicted with rheumatism. In spite of different treatment this con- dition persisted, indeed I was grow- ing worse, and bad fallen away in weight to 130 pounds and was scarce- ly able to do any work. Then 1 be- gan taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and after a few weeks there was a noticeable improvement in my condi- tion. I continued taking the pills, constantly gaining until I felt as well as ever I did. While taking 'tate pills my weight increased to 170 pounds, and I can now do as good a day's work as anyone. My advice if you are not feeling well is to take Dr, Williams' Pink Pills and they will sGpn put you right."

The poisonous uric acid which it is their duty to filter out of the blood is carried into the system, and produces all kinds of kidney troubles, such es backache, weak, latae or aching back rheumatism, swelling of the feet and ankles, urinary disorders, bladder troubles, headaches, etc., andunless these are attended to promptly, serious minutiae - tions are sure to arise and perhaps de- velop into dropsy, diabetes, Bright's diseases or other serious kidney trouble.. Mrs,'Abel Corlcurn, Last Berlin N.ii., writes:—"I was a ggreet sof/ever from kidney disease, headache and constipa- tion. The trouble was of a drat -sliest nature as my lege would swell up and 1 could scarcely walk.
