CAUTION.
This is not a gentle word—hut when
you think how liable you are not to
purchase for 75c the only remedy uni-
versally known and a remedy that has
had the largest sale of medicine in the
world since 1808 for the cure and treat-
ment of Consumption and Throat and
Lung troubles without losing its great
popularity all these years, you will be
thankful we called your attention to
Boschee's. German Syrup, There are
so many ordinary cough remedies
made by druggists and others that are
cheap and good for light colds perhaps
but for severe Coughs, Bronchitis,
Croup—and especially for Consump-
tion, where there is difficult expector-
ation and coshing during the nights
and mornings there is nothing like
German Syrup. Sold by all druggists
in the civilized world.

There are some Grit politicians around

Ross was so incensed at the attempt
of some of his colleagues to thvow him
overboard and forret a coalition, that
in a few days he will tender his resign-
ation to Sir Oliver Mowat, Lieutenant -
Governor, and let the traitors look out
for themselves in the shipwreck.

Steps are being taken by Mr. Creel -
man, Superintendent of Agricultural
Societies, and others interested in the
success of township fairs throughout
the province, to eliminate from the
fairs in the future such attractions as
horse 'racing, shell and other con
games, the Wild Man from Borneo
and female snake charmers and others
of that tribe, "Oriental" theatres, etc.,
and to substitute for them features
that are calculated to be more instruc-
tive in character and less destructive
to the pockets and morals of the peo-
ple. Mr. Creelman states that the
chief reason for doing away with horse
racing is because the horses taking
part do not belong to the farmers, but
to parties who keep them going from
place to place for the sole purpose of
making money.

Mr. A. W. Campbell, Deputy Com-
missioner of Public Works, has just
returned from the eastern counties of
Ontario, where, as the representative
of the Government, he inspected the
damage done by the tornado which
swept across the country, killing four
people and destroying barns, houses,
fences, orchards, woods ; in fact, every
thing that offered opposition to its
fury. Mr. Campbell saw a sound cedar
post six inches in diameter, through
which a piece of board about an inch
thick and four inches wide was stick-
ing, driven through by the wind. The
buildings are a complete wreck, and
not a board or stick of timber can be
used in their reconstruction. Heavy
beams and plates were carried across
fields and thrown against trees, splin-
tering them into fragments. It took
Mr. Campbell three days to drive over
the course, and in that period he inet
many survivors of thrilling escapades.
Many people were in the stables of the
bank barns, while the barns were ta-
ken bodily away. At one place ten
cows out of a herd of fourteen were
killed. He has also been estimating
the loss occasioned by the tornado and
making out an estimate of the indem-
nity which the sufferers should re-
ceive.
