prices do their own talking ; ' they appeal with
stronger force . to the economical buyer than Loud
talk.' This week' we are placing in stock something
very special in Iron. Beds, These goods were two

WOMEN AND JEWELS.
Jewels, candy, Rowers, man—that is
the order of a woman's preferences.
Jewels form a nlageet of mighty
power to the average woman. Even
that greatest of all jewels, health, is
often ruined in the strenons efforts to
make or save the money to purchase
then. If a woman will risk her health
to get a coveted gem, then let her for-
tify herself against the insiduous con-
sequences of coughs, colds and bron-
chial affections by the regular use of
Dr. Boschee's German Syrup. It will
promptly arrest consumption in its
early stages and heal the affected
lungs and bronch;a1 tubes and drive
the dread disease from the system. It
is not a cure-all. but it is a certain cure
for coughs. colds and all bronchial
troubles. Yon crfr., get this reliable
remedy at J. E. Davis'

FOOLISH CANADIANS,
(Now Denver, B. C., Ledge.)
A paper -mill that will be the
largest single plant one in the
United States, is to be built in the
Michigan. Soo. It will cost nearly
three millions of dollars, and will
be fed with Canadian pulp. If the
Canadians bad sense enough they
would put an export duty on pulp
and have mills of this kind built in
their own country.
NOT UNDER ROSS.
(Mail -Empire.)
Another general election under
the Ross Government is therefore
entirely out of the question. Mr.
Ross has had his opportunity, and
if he cannot carry on the business
a new government must be formed.
This Government can appeal to the
electorate if it so desires.
—A writer in the August num-
ber of "The World's Work" gives
the cost of fishing privileges for
wealthy Americans. It says that
J. J. Hill pays for the privilege of
fishing in the St. John river $3,000
a year, with $500 more for the St.
Paul ; H. W. deForest has leased
for himself and his associates the
fishing in the Grand Cascapedia for
$7,500 a year ; I. W. Adams, . of
Boston, has paid $30,000 outright
for the privilege of fishing in the
Mosie, and half as much more for
another stream ; Lewis Cabot re-
fuses $50,000 for his salmon -fishing
rights in the Gaspe. The Resti-
gouche Salmon Club, composed en-
tirely of Americans, is so much
sought for that the membership
shares are worth from $7,500 to.
$10,000 each.

—Some thirty years ago a scien-
tist having traced the descendants
of one Jookins who had, been a
resident of Hudson, N. Y., discov-
ered that the largest per cent. of
the descendants had been criminals.
A. similar case had been brought to
the attention of the Women's Chris-
tian Temperance Union of New
York, .A. woman of criminal ten-
dencies died in 1827, and het des-
cendants to the number of 800 hake
been traced. Seven hundred were
criminals ; thirty-seven murderers,
who were executed for their crimes.
The family has cost the nation
$3,000,000 for trials and execu-
tions. These examples show that
parental life and example, as well
as early training and surroundings,
have a great deal to do with the
mature life.

THE
CANNOT TRY AGAIN.
(Prof. Goldwin Smith.)
Two things in reference to our
Provincial crisis appear certain.
The first is that a Government can-
not be carried on with a majority of
one in the House, in the face of an
adverse majority of the electorate.
The second is that a sceend appeal
to the constituencies without a
meeting of the Legislature is out of
the question. .Suppose the toss
comes down again ,neither heads
nor tails, as it very likely might,
are we to toss a third time and go
on tossing till a sufficient marority
is attained ? Besides, who is to
determine whether a majority of
two, three, or four is sufficient?
The obvious and proper. course
surely is that there should, as soon
as possible, be a meeting of the
Legislature, at which a decisiVe
vote would be taken. Mena fresh
appeal to the constituencies, if
found necessary, would be inorder.

DOWNFALL SURE.
(Toronto World.)
The World is so certain of the
downfall of the Ross government
that it would advise the earliest
possible appeal to the country,even
with the government controlling
the elections. Even if the- Mail's
contention were correct, it would
be absurd to expect the Ross outfit
to do the right thing and recom-
mend that course to the -Lieutenant -
Governor. We don't expect Pre-
mier Ross to do the right thing.
We have long ago given up even
speculating upon such a possibility.
The government is travelling hand
in hand: with the prince of darkness
and under his banner will they
fight to the end. But even with..
His Satanic Majesty leading the
forces they will be .overwhelmed
in disaster, swift, terrible and, com-
plete.' No matter what date may
be selected for the battle, or on
what field .it „may be fought, the,
utter rout of the Liberal govern-
ment
overnment is a foregone conclusion.
ONTARIO'S AWFUL LAWS.
(Toronto Telegram.)
.A. Sub -Committee of Village
Blacksmiths could not write more
weak and ineffectual laws than the
Scrap Iron Triumphs which Onta-
rio gets out of its Government of
Great Lawyers.
THE CAUSE OF IT.
(Toronto Telegram.)
The Globe does not like to say
so, but its belief is that the ingrati,
tude of this province towards the
Ontario government caused the
heavens to weep on the hay crop
and ruin the same.
OF COURSE IT WOULD.
(Guelph Herald.)
Wouldn't it be foolish for Mr.
Ross to again ask thepeople to
permit him to build up Ontario
when by 7,00q of a majority, they
have directed )him to dig his politi-
cal grave ?
RIGHT YOU ARE.
(Hamilton Tfines;)
To how many people in Canada
does it snake a -dollar a year differ-
ence whether holiday -seekers can
travel from Quebec or St. John to
England in five days or six days?
Why should we tax ourselves a
million or so a year for the differ-
ence in time?
ONE ON HAMILTON.
(Toronto Star.)
A brand new Itamilton by-law
prevents anyone from collecting a
crowd on the street. The popu-
lace, once aroused, might trample
down the hay crop.

POOH -BAH GIBSON.
(Grimsby Independent.)
The attorney -general, Hon. J.
M. Gibson, has placed himself in
rather a peculiar position:
As attorney -general of the pro-
vince he framed a law •on assess-
ment to protect municipalities
against the injustice of the scrap
iron assessment law, previously
passed. -
As .president of the Cataract
Power Co., . he appealed against
the assessment of the company in
the township of Grantham.
As senior member of the law
firm of Gibson, Osborne, O'Reilly
& Levy, he, or his partners' for
him, conducted the case for the
company in the 'courts, won
the appeal.
The assessment of the company
on its immense works at Decew
Falls was reduced from $110,000
to $25,000.
Thus I see Gibson making the
law, Gibson breaking the law, Gib-
son defending the lawbreaker, and
in a few days I expect to see Gib-
son defending the law -maker.
