Off, Dr. Macdonald, of Wingham, mem- ber for East Huron, speaking for the Liberals in Parliament 'recently said a country's exports were the best test of the develpenient of trade. In the fiscal year 1873-4, when Dr. Macdon- ald's politicial friends came into power, the exports of Canada were valued at $89,851,928, in the -fiscal year 1878-9, when Dr. Macdonald's politicial friends went out of power, they were valued at $71,491,255. In the fiscal year 1879- 80, when Dr. Macdonald's political opponents had control of the fiscal legislation, the exports rose tb $87,911,- 458. Last year they were $118,561,352. The Conservatide period stands Dr. Macdonald's test ; the Liberal period does not.—Stratford Herald. A Touch Of The Old Man's Nature. On reaching the St. Louis Hotel once more they saw Sir John Macdonald, with his thoughtful face and grey curls, which, though thinned, still fought hard against the blanching touch of time. He was surrounded by a lot of cabmen, all crying, "I'll take you, sir.” "I've a fine horse, Sir John." "Hurrah ! for the fine old man !" etc. Then our friend had an opportunity of witnessing one of those acts which more even than his great ability en- deared Sir John Macdonald to the Can adieu people. Sir John asked whether Jim. McCullan was there. Jim Mc - Cullen was not there, but a little boy said Jim was on the stand below, and he would fetch him. Many years ago, when the Parliament met in Quebec, Jim always drove Sir John. Jim now came, old and ragged, driv-• ing the worst cab in Quebec. Sir John shook hands with him, en- quired how Honorah and the children were, and then, amid cheers, in which even the dissappointed cabmen joined, drove off to . visit their Excellencies. Both Sir John and Jim have since passed from the scene,- the cabby quite recently following the statesman to the great unknown.—Nicholas Flood Davin in the Weak. A Secret Conclave. A deputation from the hotelkeepers convention waited on the Government at the Parliament buildings Thursday, and for the first time in the history of the Legislature, when such a large de- putation came to see the Government, it was insisted that the representa- tives of the press should be excluded, and the proceedings take place in secret. The good Sir Oliver did not want to tarnished the lustre of his re- putation by being closeted in private with hotelkeepers, and discreetly kept out of the way, while Brother Hardy who so lately came out as a full-fledged prohibitionist, was afraid they would think he had fallen from grace if he put in an appearance, so he was also conveniently absent. But while Messrs. Mowat and Hardy thus endeavored to keep up the reputation of the Government with the prohibitionists, the wicked partners, consisting of Messrs. Harcount, Gib- son and Dryden, were detailed to enter into the secret compact with the hotel - keepers. So both sides being properly conciliated, itis expected that all will go on swimmingly. Of course an author- ized version of the proceedings was furnished after the secret meeting was over, but it is strongly suspected to he like the Ross bible, more remarkable for what it omitted than for what it contained. It looks quite innocent, but the query will come up : if this was all they talked about, why were they so anxious to have the reporters excluded ? If they had nothing to con- ceal, the press would not have been ex- eluded, and if they had anything to conceal, it is probable they conceal it. —Empire. News Notes.

WAS FORCED TO USE CRUTCB'ES— RELIEF W/s5 OBTAINJIn A.F'4'1;1t MANY RISAIEDIES FAILED. rrcm the Selkirk Iiem. There have been rumors of late in Sel- kirk of what was termed a mirll,culous cure from a long illness of a lady living in Rainham township, a few miles from town. So much, talk did the case give rise to that the Item. de- termined to investigate the matter with 'a view to publishing the facts. Mrs. Jacob Fry is the wife of a well known farmer and it was she who was said to have been so wonderfully help- ed. .When the reporter called upon her, Mrs. Fry consented to give the facts of the case—"I was ill for nearly a year and for four months could not move my limb because of sciatica, and was compelled to use crutches to get around. My limb would swell up and I suffered excruciating pains which would run down from the hip to the knee. I suffered so much that my health was generally bad. I tried doc- tors and patent medicines_, but got no help until I began the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Almost, from the outset these helped me and I used six boxes in all, and since that time have been a well woman, having been entirely free from pain, and having no further use for medicine. I am prepar- ed to tell anybody and everybody what this wonderful medicine has done for me, for I feel very grateful for the great good the Pink Pills wrought in my case. The reporter called on a number of Mrs. Fry's neighbors who corroborated what she said as to her painful and helpless condition before she began the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Mr. M. F. Derby, chemist, of the firm of Derby & Derby, Selkirk, was also seen. Mr. Derby , said he knew of the case of Mrs. Fry., and that what she said regarding it was worthy of every credence. She had herself told him of the great benefit she had deriv- e from the use of Pink Pills. He f tether said that they had sold Pink Pills for a number of years and found tho sale constantly increasing, which was clue beyond a doubt to the great satisfaction the pills gave those using them. An analysis of their. properties show that these pills are an unfailing specific for all troubles arising from an impair- ment of the nervous system or impov- erished blood, such es loss of appetite, depression of spirts, arimniia, chlorosis or .green sickness, general muscular weakness, dizziness, loss of memory, fo- eomoter ataxia, paralysis, sciatica, rheumatism, St. Vitus' dance, the after effect of la grippe,' scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc. They are also a speci- fic for the troubles peculiar to the fe- male system, correcting irregularities, suppressions and all forms of female weakness, building anew the blood and restoring the glow of health to pale and sallow cheeks. In the case of men they effect a radical cure in all diseases arising from mental worry, overwork or excesses of any nature. These pills are not a purgative medicine. They contain only life -living propertiss and nothing that could injure the most de- licate system. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold only - in boxes bearing the firms' trade mark and wrapper printed in red ink. Bear in mind that Dr. Williams'" Pink Pills are never sold in any other style of package, and any dealer who offers substitutes is trying. to defraud you. Ask for Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People and refuse all imitations and substitutes. Y,.eA Dr. Williams' Pink Pills may be ha of all druggists or direct by mail from Dr. Williams' Medicine Company, Brockville, Ont., or Schenectady, N.
