Indigestion.
iS not onlya distressing complaint,;of
1 itself, but,711,y causing the blood to
become depraved and the .system en-
jcebled, is the parent of innumerable
maladies. That Ayer's Sarsaparilla
is the lest ..cure -for Indigestion, even
vtiien complioatedwith Liver Complaint,
is proved by .the following testimony
from Mrs. Joseph 'S.ake, of Brockway
Centre, Mieb.: ,-
"Idver complaint and indigestion
made -my life a burden and came near
ending .my existence. For more than
four years isuffered:ttntold agony, was
reduced al mese ted skeleton, and hardly
lead strength to drag myself about.. All
;rinds mf food distressed me; and only
the most delicate could be digested at
n11. Within the time mentioned several
physicians treated me without giving re-
lief. Nothing that I tool{:seemed to do
saw permanent good.until i commenced
the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla, which
lies produced wonderful results. Soon
After commeacing to take the Sarsapa-
rilla I could .see an improvement in my
condition. Ay appetite began to return
and with it ,came the ability :to digest
uil
the food taken, my • strength im-
proved each day. and after - a, few
mouths of faithful attention to your
directions, I Found myself a well
woman, able to .attend to all household
duties. The medieiae has given ,tine a
flew tease of life."

ON k,RIO LAND—MICHIGAN: —
TUB FARMER'S l,0T IN THE TWO COUN-
TRiES CONTRASTED.
We have rccoived the following
letter for publication :
LAKEFIELD, Mich., Dec. 10, 1891.
DEAR BROTHER—I idfer from
the tone of your letter of September
last that you conclude I should be
satisfied with my lot here in Michi-
gan, for you state you see no reason
why I should not get along here,
now that I am settled, as well as in
Canada. I have Lived the best part
of my life in Canada, and have re-
sided here for over seven years, so
that I can speak with some little ex-
perience of both countries; and
Must say that I regret exceedingly
ever having left Ontario and mak•
ing. my home in _Michigan. I
thought at onetime, as you do now,
that with the same apparent ad-
vantages in soil, climate, ate., one
should succeed as well in Michigan
As in Canada, but have learned from
experience to the contrary.
Many Canadians, like myself,
have been caught by tho misre-
preseetationa of American land
agents and others, who pant in such
bright colors the many advantages
presented to parties to induce them
to go to the United States. Lot me
;give you a few of tho disadvantages
these agents have not got down in
their emigration text books:,
THE MARKETS
in this district are not as good as
you have near London. The
inr{rket here is glutted with every-
thing a farmer has to sell. Take
SagitiltW, for 'example, with a
population very much larger than
London, and there is no regular •
market place for grain ; you have to
take it to nub' or other of the grist
rlltlla,
and frequently the prices are
arrangod so�thee there is virtually
no cowpetitlon and the farmer has to
'ten itatisded with What they are pre-
pared to give him. With meat of
all kinds you have to arrange with
one of the shopkeepers to take it
off your hands, and have to drag
him out, so to speak, to buy your
produoe. There is keener com-
petition and better prices in some of
the small Canadian' villages than in
.Saginaw.
STOOK.
Horses here are low in prices, for
two reasons. The cities aro using
electricity and cable care, :which,
curtails the demand for horses.
Than, in addition to this, the horse
ranches have assumed such eno.rin-
ous'proportions that they are Hood-
ing th.ecountry with their stock, and
erowdi;ag out those raised by the
farmer. These are brought in train-
loads to the large cities, and then
taken in droves through the country,
where they are disposed of at slaugh-
ter prices, They put me somewhat
in mind of the buggies I saw a few
years ago that these Americans
brought to London and paraded
through the atrcets, slaughtering
themfor what they would brine.
The average farmer here don't like
that kind of medieine. Perhaps in
London your carriage makers know
what it is. Tho mares the Canadian
farmer used to sell to the western
ranahmen are now kicking back on
us, with the enormous wale of their
progeny, and in the matter of live
stook, such as cattle and pigs, the
stook from the western states and
prairies fairly swamp us out. We
cannot compete with them.
BUTTER AND CHEESE.
For butter the country Is flooded
with oleomargarine, which is made
from 'the -fat -predate- whish' Pointe'
from the large slaughter houses.
One of our Congressmen in Michi-
gan was left out last election because
he voted in favor licensing oleomar
garine monopolies. The farmers
are not in favor of these institutions,
and al a result he lost his job as
Congressman.
In cheese -making the large
creameries are largely in the hands
of capitalists. By a quick process
the cream is taken off in two houre,
leaving the milk quite sweet, then
the deflcienoy by taking , away the
cream is made up by cheap fats
from the slaughter houses and
chemical ingredients, and converted
into cheese. This mechanical
product gives the farmer no chance,
and there ie no prospect of Govern-
•ment legislation to rid us of the
nuisance. This accounts for the
numerous cases of poisoning from
the use of cheese which we read of
in the papers. A few years ago,
when the Yankees did the shipping
for the Canadians, the Canadian
cheese was shipped and labeled
American, while the American
mechanical process stuff was sent in
as Canadian.
TAXES.
Tares here are very high, end
will average over five times that
paid in Ontario. Where I lived in
Middlesex the taxes were seven -
tenths of a cent on the dollar,
assessed value ; in Lakefield, St.
Charles and K'tarion townships, the
average telt rupa four cents on the
dollar. This is a financial cancer
that este up to a large extent the
resources of the farmer and retards•.
his progreae, and out of this heavy'
taxation very little goes to benefit
the farmer. First, we have to pay
direst taxes for the county, states,
town, school, poor, library and dog
•taxes. That have got to be retied,
and are of very little direct benefit
to the fernier. They go fo the
support largely of ofi?ieiale, who are
purely ornamental. After those
•
are pxo'rided-1'oO comes the nice

Farms after farms can be scan in
Michigan where people have settled,
made many improvements and then
pulled up the stakes after spending.
many years to eke out a livelihood
for their families. Lands can be
bought here cheap indeed, but you
will find more dissatisfied farmers
here than in any other part of
Canada. I know whereof I speak.
What I have written you are facts
and I defy contradiction. I would
like you to come over and see the
country for yourself. There 'are
hundreds of farmers living here
who would gladly return to Canada.
I certainly will next eprin;, and in-
tend to make Canada my homo. I
know of no country euperior to it,
and a comparison between Michigan
and Canadawill show that the
Canadian fanner is infinitely better
off than they are here.
I am glad to see that Mr. Carling,
your Minister of Agriculture, is
alive to tho movements of the
American agents in Canada, and is
counteracting their work by sending
immigration agents over here to
encourage and bring back to the
Canadian West the thousands of ex -
Canadians who have been led away
by the false pictures presented to
them by these well-paid hustlers in
four country.
- One of your Canadian emigration
agents, Mr. M. V. McInnes, has.
been doing good work here in dis-
seminating particulars regarding
Manitoba and the Northwest, and
the inrormation is eagerly sought
after.
I know of a number who will
return in the spring, and American
ones, as well, as the result of his
labors, and I feel sure there are
hundreds who will follow later on,
as soon as they can arrange to get
rid of their:places here. Some from
here who have visited the North-
west report very ,favorably of that
country, but I have never seen it.
Come- overand•"'see `vii lei soon' ae
you can, and I can soon, cgnvince
you that tvhat I have stated are
facts, and think you will agree with
me that I have given solid reasons
for regret in leaving Canada.

AN OLD NEWSPAPER.
To see a copy of the New York
Sun of to -day and and one fifty-
seven .years ago, you would surely
say that real live newapapers did
prosper to a great extent.
The first copy of the New York
Daily Sun was issued on Sept. 3.
1833. It was publiehed by Benj.
H. Day at 222 William street, the
size was eleven and one half by
nine and one-half, and it sold for
one penny. The editor sat&ln a
-short editorial that the object ()Phis
paper was to lay before the ,public,
at a price•within the means of every
one, all the news of the previous
day, and at the same time offer an
advantageous medium for advertia•
ing.
The first column on the first page
was taken up with steamship adver-
tisements. The second and third
with a story of an_Irisheaptain who
had We famous duelling pistols,
On the second page were para-
graphs of news in a very odd style
of composition. It has a paragraph
about a certain Joseph Parish, who
was brought up for exercising the
musclee•of his right arm by pounding
John Nixon on the head with his'
fist : "None appearance of Mr.
Nixon he was discharged." An
.other paragraph -Said, that "the
troops of General Montezuma have
'been compelled tp quit St. Louie
Potosi in consequence of the chol-
era." It also speake of the prosper-
ity of New York at that time in the
following manner : "Considerable
business was being transacted dur-
ing the past month, more than any
month of Aug. for several years.
The city is neerly full of strangers
from *1i parte of thia country ,t1nd;

KILLED FOR IMPOLITENESS:
A TORONTO MAN'S TRAGIC DEATH IN
THE CITY OF CHICAGO.
Chicago, Jan. 5.—Ed ward Hue
ley, a carpenter, hailing from Tor.
onto, Ont, died at the hospital last
night• His death was caused by
injuries lie'receiyed two weeks ago
in the Hudson hotel at 301 South
Clark street.
Daniel Clark is a porter employ-
ed in the Hudson hotel. He states
that about two weeks ago ho went
into the washroom on the second
floor and saw Hurley, who had been
stopping at the place for several
weeks, washing hie feet in a basin
and using one of the face towels.
He told him to stop, but Hurley
took no notice of him.
Clark hurried off and told Chief
Porter James Carey what Hurley
was doing. Hurley had been caught
doing the same tieing several times
before and Carey became very an-
gry.
He rushed to the washroom and
told Hurley to leave the place.
Hurley, with an oath,.struck at
him`and soon the two even clinched.
Over and over upon the floor they
rolled, each fighting for supromaoy,
Finally Carey lifted Hurley up and
hurled him through a window on to
a shed, the roof of which was but a
foot below the window. Hurley
was badly cut about the face and
body and several arteries were sev-
ered. •
Dr. Carey dressed Hurley's
wounds and advised those about to
look out for bim as his case was ser-
ious.
Hurley remained at the place all
night, but the next morning D. H.
Loveless, the proprietor, told hila
to go.

about for several hours, hungry.atid

gta'1'ERROTS' ADVICE TO
XQUNG LADIES,"
1Young•ladles; said EU Perks
to the Naebville seminary girls,
want to talk seriously to you ate
your mothers :
RR'
'I
ut
'I1 way bo that you have noticed
a careworn look upon her faoe lately.
'Of course, it has not been brought
there by any act of yours, still it is
your duty to chase it away. I want
ygu to get up to morrow 'morning
and get breakfast; and wben your
mother comes, and begins to express
firer surprise, go' right up to ber and
kiss 'her on the mouth. You can't
imagine how it will brighten her
dear fano.
Besides, you owe her a kiss or
two. Away back, when you were a
little bit of a girl, she kissed you
when no one else was tempted by
your fever -tainted breath and swol-
len face. You were not so attractive
then as you are now. And through
those years of childish sunshine and
shadowe, she was always ready to
cure, by the magic of a mother's, kiss,
your littly dirty chubby hands
whenever they were injured in
those first skirmishes with the
rough old world.
'And then the midnight kiss
with which she routed so many bad
dreams, as she leaned above your
restless pillow,_have all been on in-
terest these long, long years.
'Of course she is not so pretty and
kissable as you are; but if you had
done your share of work during the
last ten years, the contrast would
not be so marked.
'Her face has more wrinkles than
yours, and yet if you were sick,
that .face would appear far more
beautiful than an angel's as it
hovered over you, watching every
opportunity . to minister to your
comfort, and every one of those
wrinkles would seem to bo bright
wavelets of sunshine chasing each
other over the dear face.
'She will leave you one of these
days. These burdens, if not lifted
from her shoulderr, will break her
down. Those rough, hard hands
that have done so many necessary
things for you, will be crossed upon
her lifeless breast. -
'Those neglected lips, that gave
you your first baby kiss, will be
forever closed, and those sad, tired
eyes will have opened in eternity,
and then you will appreciate, your
mother ; but it will be too late.'
Consumption Cured.
An old physician, retired from'praotiae, having
had placed in his hands by an East India misaion-
ary the formula of a simple vegetable remedy for
the speedy and permanent cure of Consumption,
Bronchitic, Catarrh, Asthma and all throat and
Lang Affections, also a positive and radical cure
for Nervous Debility and all Nervous Complaints,
atter having tested its wonderful curative powers
in thoneande of casae, has fait it his duty to make
it known to his suffering fellows. Actuated by this
motive and a desire to relieve human suffering, I
will send tree of charge, to all who desire it, this
recipe in German, French or English, with full
directions for preparing and using. Sent by mail

A LITTLE CHICAGO GIRL BEATEN
ABOUT THE HEAD AND
KICKED INTO IN+
SENSIBILITY.
Chicago, Jan. 5, -With her life
in the balance, her face bruised and
battered almost beyond recognition
and ber breast and ahoulders covered
with the black marks of brutal
heels, beatiful little Lousie Hagan
lies at ber home on Washington
boulevard the victim of a most dar..
ing and dastardly outrage. Whle re-
turning to her home about dusk on
Sunday, along Laf3in street, she
passed a man whose actions fright
ened her. She ran to within a few
feet of 'Madison street, when the
man, who had pursued band passed
her unobserved, sprung out of an
alley and struck her a terrible blow
on the back of the head with a mon-
key wrench. The blow would have
felled the strongest man, and the
fragile form of the poor girl sank
limp and insensible to the sidewalk.
Then throwing a handkerchief
across her mouth and face, and
holding it by the ends behind her
head with one hand, the villian seiz-
ed her at the waist with the other
and dragged the senseless form into
the filth and gloom of the alley.
The entreaties of his victim seemed
only to have the effect of increasing
the savagery of the brute. With a
murmured cnrse he struck her in the
face while he stooped over the pros.
trate form. Then rising to his feet
he Stamped hiaheavy feet upon her
breast and 8ho0def . Alarmed by
the footsteps of a passer-by the brute
fled. Tho bleeding and half uncorr-
aoious girl wet taken to her home,
where physicians pronounced her
condition as critical, The police are
