Alive., 1 ettelltar ,$pcetittee- Over ttwo years ago, when the result of the general provincial election was known, the Tdrooto Globe told tis that the P. P. A. had been killed. All' throw h tile campaign the Globe had been lying about the .P. P. A. and call- ing its members intolerant bigots, and all manner of hard names, and bad been advising all "right thinking" peo- ple Grit or Tory, to join in killing the P. P. A. But last Wednesday night in the house of commons, up jumped the Globe's political friend, Mr. Cameron, of Huron, who staked his reputation for veracity (and the Globe has often proved that M. C. is veracious) that there are now 300,000 P. P. A. votes in Canada, which, at the next election, will go solid for French Mr. Laurier and make him premier 1 There is something wrong. Either the Globe didn't kill the P. P. A., or Mr. Cameron says what is not true. Perhaps our esteemed contemporary will tell us which it is, and if it should turn out that Mr. Cameron tells the truth, per- haps the Globe will give us its present opinion of the P. P. A., as seen in the new light of supporters of French Mr. Laurier? Perhaps our esteemed con- temporary will go farther and tell us what it thinks will be the effect of Mr. Cameron's revelation upon the Catholic vote ? There are a number of things in connection with this which we would like to know; but will be con- tent, just now, with sttaightforward information ou the lines suggested. BRITAIN'S POPULAR QUEEN. HER LATEST CABINET PHOTO GIVEN AWAY. The popular craze of the day is now directed toward the new and elegant cabinet photo of Her Majesty the Queen worth fully 40 to 50 cents each that Wells & Richardson Co. are send- ing out as part premiums to thousands in Canada and the United States. The well-known manufacturers of Diamond Dyes recently made arrange- ments with publishers of Our Horne, by which they were enabled to make .the following offer : "An elegant full cabinent photo (from a recent copy taken by royal command) of Her Majesty Queen Vic- toria ; a four page pamphlet giving dates of births, marriages and deaths, and other items of interesting and use- ful information relating to the royal family, that but few people have ac- cess to ; six Diamond Dye Dolls with six extra dresses ; and a card of forty- flve samples of dyed cloth, showing colors of Diamond Dyes, sent free to every lean, woman and child who will send in 25 cents in money or stamps for one year's subscription to OurHome, a paper that thousands declare to be worth a dollar." Wells & Richardson Co. regret very much that theyiwere compelled to keep so many waiting from three to five days before orders could be filled and mailed. The rush of new subscribers has been, and still is,extraordinary—in fact so heavy that the artist has not been able to keep up with the demand. Arrangements are being perfected in the direction of a larger mailing staff and increased supply of photos, so that new subscribers to Our Home will receive prompt attention. Bear in mind that the whole coat of Our Home, photo and other premiums, is only 25 cents. Address Wells & Richardson Co., Montreal, P. Q. Blyth.
