ture was a letter of consolation read as

about sixty persons. •
—At the end of the Park toboggan
slide, Toronto, just at the .0pot where
the ill -conducted toboggan was supposed
to upset its passengers in the soft snow,
the melting rays of the springtime film
have disclosed to view a set of pearly,
but false teeth, whose bits of gold set
here and there ivould iedicateethat in
their construction: was employed that art
which art conceals. Whether when they
- were lost the fair Owner was laughing in
'wide-mouthed glee, or the unexpected-
eoneussion had the effect of making
them shoot out like a cannon ball, is not
kii:Own ; but there they lay, an evidence
of departed pleasure and possibly of re-
gret, that there is no earthly by which
is .unalloyed with pain.

House of Commons, to Mr. Maafarlane,

her _ boats would hold 365 persons.
Chmmenting upon which, Mr. Macfar-
lane said that meant, if the steamer had
founderedin midocean, there was a
chance ofsafety or only -500 out of 800
pasengers. Exac ry, said Mr. Mundella,
and yet the Oreg n had accommodation
largely. in eXces of the statutory re-
quirements. It is likely this startling
revelation will le d to some special leg-
islation on the su ject. ' .

at Ailsa Craig on Monday after a long
and painful illness at the age of 73 years.

ministry in Quee 's College, Kingston,
and was ordain d as minister of 'the
Presbyterian chu ch in East Williams in
1849, of which co igregation he continu-
ed to be pastor for 34 years. When the
union of the Presbyterian churches took
place in 1875 he remained "out," but
such was the respect of the congregation
for him as an ear est and godly minister
that the great ma.ority of them •contin-
ued to. adhere to 1 im and to support him
as their pastor. „
, —Timothy Ba cock, of Erie, Penn-
sylvania, a vetera of the late war, is
so incapacitated y reason of the loss of
highearing, cause by a bursting shell,
that he cannot • vork. . A short - time
ago he conceivad he "idea of growing

specimens of the black skunk variety.
The females breed threeatimcs a year,
and peeduce a, dozen or more young. at

readily at $1 each, ' and even more.
The mixed black and white are not so
valuable. The industry is a thriving
one. The hop growers in the western

Catarrh—a Niew Treatment.
Perhaps the most extraordinary success that
has been achieved in modern medicine has been
attained by the Dixo4 Treatment for .patarrh.
Out of -2,000 patients tieated during the 'past six
months, fully ninety per cent, have - been cured
of this stubborn maladia This is none the less
startling when it is renlembered that no five per
cent. of patients pres nting themselves to the
regular practitioner re benefitted, while the
patent medicines an other advertised cures
never -record a cure a all. Starting with the
claim now generally be ieved by the most Bolen-
-tific men that the disea e is due to the presence
of living parasites in he tissue, Mr. Dixon at
once -adapted his cure o their extermination—
ehis accomplished he c aims the Catarrh is prae-
Means- cured, and the erma,nency is unquestion-
td, as cures effected by him four years ago are
:sures still. No one els has ever attempted to
cure Catarrh in this manner, and no other treat:
ment has ever oured C tarrh. The application
of the remedy is simpl , and can be done at
home, and the present eason ef the year is the
most favorable for a spaedy and permanent cure,
the majority of cases being cured at one treat-
-ment. Sufferers should correspond with Messrs.
A. H. DIXON & SON 305 King Street, West,
Toronto, Canada, and enclose stamp for their
treatise on Catarrh.— ontieal Star, November

Four Reasons Why
ROBERTS'
Pleasant Worm Syrup
HAS BECOME A HOUSEHOLD
NECESSITY WITH MOTHERS
OF FAMILIES.
I. Because it never fails to remove w-orms from
the system.
II. Because of its perfect harmlessness to the
constituLionof the sinallest or • most delicate
child.
111. Because of its economy, as a bottle in the
house will save many a doctor's visit.
IV. Special. Because when administering
medicine to young children pleasantness of taste
should be oran, importance, second only to
the efficacy of the preparation, and this syrup is
so made that no child will i refuse to take it, sO
agreeable and aromatic is its flavor.

AS CONSCIENTIOUS
DRUGGISTS,
---WE -WOULD —
recommend for DYSPEPSIA, INDIGESTION and
kindred diseases, the use of MALTOPEPSYN.
For Consumption and all wasting diseases the
use of MORSE'S CARBOLATED NORWEGIAN
COD LIVER OIL. For teething infants and
nervous troubles, the use of GLYCEROLE OF
CELERY COMPOUND (containing.no opium.)
You probably ask !why we recommend these
remedies!
It is because we knew them to be reliable
remedies, endorsed by leading physicians
throughout the Dominion, for the cure of specific
diseases, and not claiming to cure everything,.
Also becausethey hfie the exact formula printed
on ecch bottle labathereby enabling ,the pur-
chaser to know just what he is taking.
' The time is rapidly approaching when intelli-
gent people will refuse to take quack cure-alls;
the ingredients of width are kept set -'ret, but will
insist upon knowing juat what they are takings
! We would also inform any who may not yet be
aware by actual trial of the superiority of our
" ROYAL GLYCERATED BALSAM OF FIR,"

on the other hand, is from Nature's own mane

in freestone foundation, and is harder than the
