Therefore, the only effective treatment is a thorough course of Ayer's Sarsaparilla -the best of all blood purifiers. The sooner you begin the better ; delay is dangerous. " I was troubled with catarrh for over two years. I tried various remedies, and was treated by a number of physi- cians, but received no benefit until I began to take Ayer's Sarsaparilla.

' When Ayer'e :,wrsaparilla was rec- ommended to me for catarrh, I was in- clined to doubt its efficacy: Having tried so many remedies, with little ben- efit, I had no faith that anything would cure me. I became emaciated from lose of appetite and impaired digestion. I had nearly lost the sense of smell, and ray system was badly deranged. I was about discouraged, when a friend urged me to try Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and re- ferred me to persons whom it had cured of catarrh.

THE YOUNG HEIR TO THE CROWN PASSES AWAY THiS MORNING AFTER A SEVERE BATTLE WIT[I TUE GRIM DE- STROYER Loudon, Jan. 14.—The Duke of Clarence and Avondale is dead. The Prince of Wales sent the fol- lowing telegram to the Lord Mayor of London :—"My beloved son pissed away at 9 o'clock to day. ALBERT EDWARD." The news of the death of the Duke of Clarence has caused wide- spread grief, and already demon- strations are everywhere apparent. All public buildings display flags at half mast throughout the city of London.. Tho-snd.intelligence has been received with expressions of the deepest sorrow. London, Jan. 14—S.:ch scenes were never witnessed in London, even during the groat illness of the Prince of Wales, the populace was not aroused to such a tremour of ex- citement. Tho young Duke was plucky to the Last. An examina- tion made last night showed that both his lungs were congested. He suffered acute pains at intervals, and his breathing was laboured. From the beginning, however, the chances were against him, ns he lacked the robust vigour of his brother, George. His mother, the Princess of Wales, never once left hie side, while his fiancee, Princess Mary of Teck, was an anxious +watcher at his bedside. THE DEAD PRINCE. Prince Albert Victor Christian Edward, Duke of Clarence and Avendale and Earl of Athlone, K. G,, K. P., LL. D., eldest son of the Prince and Princess of Wales, was born January 8th, 1864. Flis education was conducted at home until he was seven years of age. He passed two years on the Britan. pia, entering tho navy in 1877. Two years later he went to sea in the Bacchante and visited the West Indies, the Falkland Islands, •-,the Cape of Good Hope and Australia. He spent considerable time tit the two latter places and then went to Fiji, Japan, China and Suez, re- turning to England, in 1882, by way of. Lkypt and Palestine.• In OetolIer, 1883, Ile became an under graduate at Trinity College, Cam- bridge, continuing his studies at Heidelberg University, He then studied military science at Alder- shot. He visited Leland in 1887, and two years later visited India. In 1888 Cambridge conferred the title of LL.D. upon him. On De cember 15th, 1890, he was installed Right Worshipful Grand Master of the Masonic Order for the Province of Berkshire, at Reading: The fact of his recent engagement to Princess• Mary of Teck, aiil the magnificent preparations being made for the wedding, add to the sorrow occas- ioned by his death. "LE ROI EST MORT, VI VE LE ROI." Prince Albert Victor is dead, and his brother, Prince George, is now the heir -presumptive to the throne of England. Next in succession is thePrincess Louise, Duchess of Fife, and after her the baby (laughs ter born to the Duke and Duchess in May last. DICKENS AND THACKERAY Philadelphia Record =Of the in-. -ham-arable' Objects In the priceless collection of rare volutnes and man- nscripts which Mr. Childs presented to the Drexel Institute none absorb so much attention as the manpsc.ri.p.t... of Dickens' "Our Mutual Friend" and of Thackeray's lecture on George III. Dicken's mode of work is ex- emplified in his manuscript copy. The first few pages of the manu- script are entirely taken up with a skeleton outline of his plot. This is entirely completed before the novehst attempts to get down to the solid work of writing the story. In this way it is. seen that lie had his work entirely mapped out, and knew just exactly what he was gos ing to do with each character. DICKENS' CAREFUL "COPY." Di teas wrote a peculiar hand, the lines very .close together and the letters yery .small, with frequent rnarke,of change and erasure, shows ing the utmost care in the prepara- tion of the work. In places whole tines have been scored out, to be replaced by another choice of words or a different mode of expression. 'In the first volume is inserted a letter from Mr. Dickens to Mr. Childs, in which the novelist invites his friend to meet him at Gads Hill. The manuscript lecture on George III, by Tllackeray is in a wonderful state of preservation. It is hand- somely bound and is embellished by fine old steel engravings of the Georges, collected by Mr. Childs, and contains numerous drawings made by the author in colors.These are the only colored drawings of Thackeray in existence. Each sheet of the manuscript, which presents a strong contrast in its neatness to Dickens' writing, is pasted on heavy card board. This is the original from which the author delivered his lectures. The manuscript is as read- able as print, and its excellence is sustained throughout. There are annotations by Mrs. Ritchie, his daughter, wbo certifies to the genus ineness of the work.

THE BAP.ONESS' LETTER TO THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE. To the Editor of the New York Tribune. Sia,—I have before rno the issue of your valuable journal, dated Fri- day January 8, 1892. This issue contains two paragraphs quoted from the Globe newspaper, of Tor- onto, Canada, which paragraphs make a specific,' deliberate and most damaging accusation against me. In those paragraphs it is declared that I am 'the personage referred to by another journal (the Regina Leader) published in the North- west Territories of Canada, as one of the. several individuals who, in the year 1882, engaged in a "shady and disreputable transaction" for "the purchase of land near the pres- ent site of the Regina Capital on speculation." At that date my late husband, Sir John Macdonald, was First Minie,tor in Canada. I know r shall not 'appeal in vain when I here pray, as an act of mercy to the living as well as one of solemn justice to the dead, that you will cause to be published in the !New,' York Tribune this, my distinct, positive and absolutely un- qualified denial of that baseless and most cruel charge, a charge, indeed, so entirely destitute of even the shadow of a foundation that my tr•.ou.bled...mind.,-ia...atm osts• as, much. filled with amazement as my sk,:e and stricken heart is torn by its appearance with a new grief and pain. - I beg to remain, air, your obliged and faithful, • • AGNES MACDONALD OF EARNSCLIFFE.

'Formerly the '•going off," with: the pretty' travelling toilet, the hand shakings, friendly speeches and farewell kisses., was a charming epilogue to a trying drama. Now this episode is a thing of the past, for, in spite of culture and that "extra tuppence," our polieh is merely skin deep, and .a high old romp is dearly cherished by insular youth. When the bride emerges, ready to start on life's journey, her heart must fail at the thought of the ordeal in prospect. She says her principal adieus in private,•for the guests, like ravening wolves, await her below. A serried pha- lanx blocks the hall, lines the stair- case and extends in masses to the doors of the carriage. With the instinct of self-preser- vation the bride defends herself as best she can, and the couple literal- ly fight their way, breathless and disheveled. The bridegroom, shite, determined -and awk ward, joins hie wife, and tlicy make a desperate rush. But it is of no avail. The uphoay- ing hordes close upon them. The stinging grain is Burled in their smarting faces; trickles down their backs, gets into their mouths and up their sleeves. Surely this cruel and undignified exit is a horrible tax at the close of nu exhausting day, and girls Must dread the moment of departure, for rico propelled from hound hand bowling fists is a shocking abuse of an innocent old fashion the sooner Modified the better. CARLETON ASSIZES. EXPRESSION,] OF TIRE GRAND JURORS REGARDING THE IMPORTANT CASES 'TRIED, OTTAWA, Jan. 12—At the Assizes Court this morning the grand jury made their presen:mout, and were afterwards discharged. In the it presentment, among other things, they made the following interesting remarks : "We heartily concur with your lordship's views that, in the admin- istration of the law, no political or other considerations, except those of justice and right should in any way be considered. "While not expressing, an opin• ion of the guilt or innocence of those accused, we regret for credit of the country that such serious charges as those contained in the bills we have found should have been sustained In evidence before us, and we are glad to know that the legal authorities both of the Dominion and province have join- ed in the determination to prose • cute to the end all persons charged with breach of trust, malversation in office and all other conspiracies against the public treasury, and we venture the opinion that your lord- ship's charges and the proceedings at this court will have an excellent effect upon the political morals of the community." VERY OLD LAW. A WRIT UNEARTHED THAT HAS BEEN USED FOR NEARLY TWO CENTURIES, A remarkable case has come to Osgoode hall, Toronto, from Water- ford, Ont. It came up to day be- fore Justice Falconhridge dy way of an applicateon by E. E. A. DuVernet for a writ of certiorari to have a writ issued by Judge Robb, of Simcoe, brought before the high court for discussion, as it is a peculiar form of a writ which has not been heard of for hundreds of oybnrs. -Tho story briefly is as follows : Three of the most pominont men of \Waterford—named Grover, Joyce and Walker—built a large block on Main street in the town. The ques- tion of street boundaries was in dis- pute, and when that was settled it was found that the block encroached on the street some six feet. The owners of the building defended themselves, but were ultimately fined for allowing a nuisance to exist. At the next sessions the matter was appealed, but an order was made against the owners of the block to remove it in three months. They did not, and the county judge allowed a writ of do nocumento amovendo to issue, which enjoined the sheriff to tear down the part of the building which encroached at the expense of the owners. Mr. Du Vernet held that the sheriff had no power to do this, that it was a question for the high court. He also stated that that was the first writ of the kind kind ever is- sued in Canada, and -there had been none issued in. England since 1700. Even at that remote date Lord Qoke said : "It is a writ of extraordinary nature and I think has not been granted this hundred years. The certiorari was granted and the point wili come before the full court in term. STJAC` WI#R1rOR + 'EQUAL OBS.OIL RHEMATS•M,fTRADE �,MARKNEURK'L:CIAI,, t LUMB4hQr . .

ALEXANDER MONEIL ADDRESSES A VERY' LARGE MEETING AT DUNNVILLE DUNVILLE, Jan. 13,—Mr. Alex. McNeil, M.P. for North Bruce, de• livered an address here last night on the subject of "Imperial Trade." Mr. McNeil is a fitiehed speaker, with a full command of language, and kept the immense audience in rant attention. The, Opera house, which has a seating capacity of over 700, was packed to the doors, and as the speaker proceeded with his subject it was quite evident that he had the entire sympathy of his audi• ence. He showed that 'imperial trade' is a subject which-' would in the near future be a live issue in all parts of the British Empire, and was now receiving much more at. teution than was commonly euppos ed. Among the advantages which Canadians would reap he mentioned the fact that we would thou have n market of nearly 400 millions of people, who required all we could produce, excepting only in hay and the poorer class of horses. With this preferential right of trade, emigration would be stimulated, our vast wheat fields would be cultivat- ed, and ilio population bo increased. The speaker expatiated at length upon the progress this question was making in England, The London Threes and other leading papers, while advocating the principal of free trade, advocated the adoption of differeutal duties in favor of the colonies. A convention of 1,000 Conservative delegates adopted the principal by n veto of 988, and a succeeding convention confirmed their edecissiun, and [called upon the Government to ascertain if such au arrangement could be carried out. The London Chamber of Com rncrco had passed resolutions in favor of imperial trade, and it was supported by the chairman of the London Chambore of Trade, which had strongly supported the move- ment, and the body had pronounced favorably upon it by alarge majority. The speaker claimed that fully one- half of the people'. of Groat Britain worn pronounced in favor of the policy. At the close resolutions in favor of the formation of a• branch of the United Empire League were carried unanimously amid great enthusiasm. TORTURED FOR HER BOY'S SAKE. A NEW YORK MOTHER GIVES SEVERAL SQUARE INCHES OF CUTICLE TO IIER SON. Cin Oct. -20 .last Hyman 141uncb, aged 8, while playing with matches at his home, at No. 25 Norfolk street, was frightfully burned. Al. though he received the best medical attention in the city, the physicians could not get the flesh to heal on his chest and abdomen. Last Monday the house surgeon at Bellevue Hospital and others of the staff determined to try skin grafting. The mother was told what was necessary, and she g1 dly consented to undergo any kind of suffering for the sake of her child. To day was the time set for the operation of transferring the skin of the mother to the body of her son. Mrs. Munch passed through the ordeal without making any corn - plaint without the use of anteethetics. A good many square inches of skin were taken from her thigh- and pleo- ed over the places on the boy which have refused to heal, almost com- pletely covering the wounds. It may he necessary a week or two from now to do a little more skin grafting, but the doctors at the present time are of the opinion that what was done to -day will suffice. It will be several days before the mother will be able to leave the hospital, and several week before the doctors will be able to determine whether the boy will recover or not. Consumption Cured. An old physician, retired from practice, having had plaoodin his hands by an East India mission- ary the formula of a simple vegetable remedy for the speedy and permanent core of Consumption, Bronchitis, Catarrh, Asthma and all throat and Lang Affeotions, also a positive and radical cure for Nervous Debility and all Nervone Complaints, after having tested its wonderful curative powers in thousands of oases, has felt it his duty to make it known to his suffering fellows.
