A GLENGARRY MIRACLE.
THE STORY OF A YOUNG GIRL WHO
THOUGHT DEATH WAS NEAR.
HER CONDITION THAT OF MANY OTHER
YOUNG GIRLS -HEART ACTION FEE-
BLE, CHEEKS PALLID, EASILY TIRED
AND APPETITE ALMOST GONE -HOW
HER LIFE WAS SAVED.
From the Cornwall Freeholder,
Nothing in this world Is more dis-
tressing, and unfortunately it is too
common in this Canada of ours, with
its extremes of climate -its almost
arctic winters and summer days of
tropic heat -than to see a young life
fading away like a bli'hted vine. Its
early days have been full of promise,
but just when the young maiden be-
comes of a loveable age with every-
thing to live for, or the young man
evinces signs of business aptitude they
are slyddedly stricken down and too
often in months, or it may be weeks,
there are empty chairs at the fireside
and sore hearts left behind. Not
always is this the case, however.
Fortunately science has discovered
remedies to check the ravages of de-
cline, when it has not gone too far.
Recently, a case of this kind was
brought to our notice, and the circum-
stances were so notable and attracted
so much attention in the neighborhood
that we felt impelled to inquire into
them more fully and give therm the
benefit of as wide publicity as possi-
bility.
Henry Haines who has for several
years past acted its farm foreman for
Mr. Daniel Currie of Glen Walter,
Glengarry county, has quite a large
family. among them ona daughter
Mary, now about 18 years of age.
Until her 12th year she was much as
other children, fairly rugged and with-
out sickness of any kind. Then of a
sudden she became delicate and as the
months went on her parents were
afraid she was going into a decline.
Her heart beat feebly; she was feverish
and flushed, slept badly and had but
little appetite. Doctors were consult,
ed, who talked about growing too fast,
and such common places, and pre-
scribed different medicines, none of
which, however. appeared to be of any
permanent benefit. A year or so ago
the young lady hoping a change of air
might accomplish for her what medi-
cine could not, went to Fort Coving-
ton, N. Y., where she had some rela-
tives, and engaged as a nurse. Even
this light employment, however,
proved too much for her and in the
spring she returned to her parents a
perfect wreck, with nothing to do but
die, as she thought. But when least
expected aid was at hand. Mr. Haines
had been reading of the marvellous
cures made by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
for Pale People, and reasoned within
himself that if they had cured others
they might save his daughter's life.
On the next visitto Cornwall he
bought a half dozen boxes of Pink
Pills. It may be easily imagined that
Miss Haines required little persuasion
to try the much talked of remedy, and
well for her is was that she did so. In
the course of a week she felt an im-
provement. By the time she had
taken two and a half boxes she realized
that she was experiencing such health
as she had never known before,
and her friends began to remark and
congratulate her on the change in
her appearance. Still persevering in
the use of the pills, she found herself
when at the end of the fifth box in per-
fect health and able to engage in all
the work of the household and the
amusements from which she had up to
that time been debarred. She had an
excellent appetite and no one could
wish to feel better. Hearing of the
marvellous change her sister from
Fort. Covington came over to satisfy
herself, and could hardly he persuaded
that the robust, happy looking girl was
indeed her sister whoin she had never
expected to see alive again. Miss
Haines says she cannot say enough in
favor of Dr. Williams' wonderful Pink
Pills, to which she feels assured she
owes her life.
• Dr. Williams' Pirfk Pills are an un-
failing cure for all troubles resulting
from poverty of the blood or shattered
nerves and where given a fair trial they
never fail In cases like the above relat-
ed. Sold by all dealers, or sent post -
aid t 50 cents a box, or six boxes for

MONTREAL MARKETS.
There was very little excitement in
live stock circles. As a matter of fact
little or no business was done and
values were unchanged. A lot of cat-
tle, numbering 60 head, were bought
by Ironsides for export at 5}c, and this
was the only transaction worthy of
mention. Judging from the sales of
Canadian cattle in Liverpool the niar-
ket averaged about 6d. Freights re-
main unaltered. The -butchers were
rather slow in corning out in the morn-
ing, but litter on they showed up
pretty well, and as the supplies of beef
cattle were rather small prices exhibit-
ed a good deal of firmness, and sales
were made at a slight advance. There
were no really choice beeves offered at
the East End Abattoir, where the sup-
plies were about 350 head of cattle, 400
calves and 600 sheep and lambs. The
best cattle here sold at about 5c. per
ib, with pretty good stock at from 4c
to 43/4c per lb; milkmen's strippers sold
at from $30 to $45 each, or from 33/4c to
4c. A number of export cattle were
sold at the stock yards at from 5c to
5jc per ib. There was an active de-
mand for good calves, and the prices
of these ranged from $ti to $l0 each ;
common calves sold at front $2 to $5
each, with some of the culls at :about
$1.50 each. Shippers are paying 4c to
413c per lb for good large sheep that
have been shorn, and in some cases the
butchers paid over 43c per lb for good
yearlings. Lamps sold at from $2 to
$4 each. Fat hogs are plentiful and
lower in price, or about 4:ic per lb.
Two small Berkshire pigs, weighing
250 lbs, were sold here at 5c per
Ib. There was no store hogs or small
pigs offered.

Canada's New Flag.
A MOVEMENT IN FAVOR OF THE MAPLE
LEAF EMBLEM.
The question of the adoption of a
more expressive national emblem than
the present Dominion flag has been
discussed dunning the past years. It is
felt by many that the red ensign, with
a single symbol to represent the Do-
minion, is much to be perferred to the
present flag, which contains the arms
of all the provinces grouped together
in such a manner, that they are not
really distinguishable on a vessel' when
seen from a distance. Sir Donald
Smith has been devoting some atten-
tion to this subject, and the other (lav
called together a number of members
of the House of both sides of politics
at Ottawa for the purpose of laying
