Safety of This Form of Security, Deserv- tdiy Popular In Canada, is very High Class -Danger only in Communities Where Population is Decreasing -Legal Investigation Necessary, But This Al- ways Done by Purchasing Bond Houso- Western°school Issues are Safe. The articles contributed by "Investor" are tor the sote puri,use of guiding pros- pective investors, and, if possible of say. ing them from losing money through placing it in "wild -cat" nterprises. The Impartial and reliable character of the information may be relied upon. The Writer of these articles and the publisher of this paper have no interests to servo in connection with this matter other than those of the reader. By those who value safety above all other investment qualities, Canadian municipal bonds are veld in very (and deservedly) high esteo:,:. In all the history of Canada there have peon so fow oases or repudiation of utu;nclpal obligations that. thitr danger.-a•1tt:.ys present in the -ease of United 'States cities -may be en- tirely "ignored. The great, safety of municipal bonds n atuslly resulted in these returning email yield. 'and so we have the se.

A municipal bozld, .however, aannot be purchased with safety by one entirely un- aotivainted with the bond business. Tho primary investigation into 'an issuti of any municipality is, of course, to see whether or not the town or city has power to issue such bonds, and then it is necessary to determine whether all the necessary legal formulae have been fol- lowed in passing the necessary by-laws, eto. These investigations arc usually car - tied on on behalf of the purchasers by a lawyer skilled in this sort of work, and are a very necessary feature in order to prevent loss; for wore the boucle issued illegally it is quite possible that by the time they were due the mistake would have beau discovered and then it would be illegal for the municipality to redeem them. Of course. in most instances. the necessary legal machinery would be op - orated to overcome this difficulty, but it relight happen that in some cases the citizens would he glad of an excuse for not paying the bill. Bence. the care al- ways exercised. It is for this . reason that in all circular advertisemonts of municipal bonds you will note, under each issue advertised. the words. "Legal opinion of a Lawyer," which means that tho said lawyer has passed on the legality of the issue. Municipal bonds are secured by the. taxable property in the munieipalitY - they are, in fact, an indirect first lien upon such property. The interest and final repayment is met out of taxes, and the obligation of the municipal bond is legally enforcible before all other mort- gages or other liens. It is this that makes rho bond so safe, for it is only in the ease of the utter destruction of a muni- cipality, or its diminution in population to a vanishing point. that there is danger of loss. The only recent oases of this sort occurred when. Campbellton, N. B., and Cochrane, Ont., were wiped out by fire, But the respeetive Provincial Governments stepped 'in and • prevented lees" l;q:the bond holders by guaranteeing the interest for w 'suffioieut ,'tube to "'liable these 1,Q'i urs to get o�i their fest •. ncd more. •.

BEWARE OF BLOOD -POISON Zatn=Buk Is A, Sure Cure. Mr. Jas. Davey, of 786 Ellice ,A:ventte, Winnipeg, says :--"A few months since I was cured if a poi- soned finger through the timely use of Zara-Buk. "I cut a deep gash across the knuckle on the first finger of my' right hand in opening a lobster can. I suffered at the time with the sane- ness and pain, but had no idea it would become a serious wound. However, in about two days my whole hand and arm to the •elbo'ty became inflamed, and the finger was much discolored, showing aligns of blood -poisoning. "I then decided to start the Zam- Buk treatment, and having first bathed the cut, I applied the heal- ing balm. It soothed the pain al- most instantly. "In a week's time, through per- severance with Zarin-Buk, a eom- plete cure was brought about." Zam-Buk is just as good for ec- zema, ulcers, scalp sores, abscesses, piles, ringworm, boils, varicose ul- cers, running sores, cold sores, chapped hands, etc. Use it, too, for cuts, burns, bruises and all skin injuries. Zaln-Buk Soap should be used in conjunction to the balm for washing wound% and sore places. Excellent to for baby's bath.

This Painful Trouble is Due to Poverty of Blood. Neuralgia is one of the.. most painful maladies that afflicts hu- manity. The trouble is venally seat- ed in the face and head, following the course of some nerve, but it at-' tacks other parts of the system as well. It is characterized by acute pains, sl i1'• ' df+os steady, at others spasmodfc''anti darting, headaches and a feeling as though the forehead was a band of iron. Medical au- thorities agree that neuralgia is a cry of the nerves for better food, and that if the blood is purified and enriched the trouble will dis- appear., This is the reason why Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cure even the most severe cases of neuralgia They actually make -new, rich blood which feeds the tired, starved nerves and thus cure the trouble, at the same time leaving the saffer- er in better health in every way than was formerly enjoyed. In proof we give the ease of Mr. G. Brooks, ,of Aurora, Ont., who says : "About two ,years ago, while work- ing in Collingwood I was attacked with neuralgia, which became so bad that I was frequently unable to go to work. The pain would start over my right eye and would then spread to the whole face and caused me the greatest agony. I was under the care of a good doc- tor, but his treatment did not do more than give me temporary relief, and I was therefore an almost con- stant sufferer. Acting on the ad- vice of my wife I final]-• decided to give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a trial, and I am profoundly thank- ful that I did so, as in the course of a few weeks I began to improve, and after a further use of the Pills the trouble disappeared and I have not since had any trace of it. I may also add that while taking the. Pills my weight increased by nine pounds, which shows that the Pills are a body builder as well as a nerve restorer." • Sold by all medicine dealers or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for Sem from The Dr, Wil- liams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

In an address delivered Dot long ago, the health commissioner of Chip sago, speaking en the subject of ventilation in schools, said that al- though good vetxtilatiou is import.. ant for every one at every age, I is never so necessary as during Ile school years. AH through these years the body is growing and maturing rapidly, and physical habits are being estab- lished. Since whatever material is formed in this time will have to do duty throughout the years of adult life, it is a bad time to makee ma- terial that is below the standard. The human body may be ccmpar- ed to a garment. I't will stand a great deal of rough wear and tear if it is made of good material; but if it is made of shoddy, it will grow shabby and wear out quickly, no matter how well it is cared for, That Ls why the care of children in their early years is so important -it is the time to make material that will stand the wear and tear of later life. Children who in the school years are subjected .to avoidable strain do not always show the ef- fect immediately; but years after, when they display small power of recuperation, little resistance to disease, and great susceptibility to fatigue, they are paying for the in- justice to which they were subjected 'in the past. It has been scientifically proved that children do no do well in badly ventilated schoolrooms. They ars likely to be pale, nervous, and sub- ject to headache ; they catch cold. easily, and take little interest in their studies. After the windows have been opened, and the temper- ature has been lowered, and the air made fresh and moist, the same chil- dren, in the same room, with the same teacher, will be aifferent creatures ; not only healthier and freer from colds and headaches, but more alert, interested. and ready for their lessons. The reports from the schools where this particular experiment has been matte and the results care- fully noted, declare that the change in. the meatal capacity and -the pow- er of the. lxild3� a to , a ll selves was more marked than the physical change for the better, al- though that, too, was' great. The health commissioner divides the harm clone by poor ventilation into two kinds -the quick -acting ons air -borne infections, and the slow - acting or air -caused conditions. Among the former he places influ- enza, colds, cerebrospinal meningi- tis, and various infections, such as scarlet fever, diphtheria and measles. Among the latter he places drowsiness, mental slowness, headache, lassitude, muscular flab - bines, anemia, chorea and irrita,• bility.-Youth's Companion. APPLE JELLY. Apple and Mint Jelly.
