KIN Good Good I ICheap Prices Spring Suits, Overcoats, Trousers, Etc. Is the theme we bring to your notice at this time. Some wise man has said—"My son, get wisdom, and with all thy getting, get under- standing." The wise man to -day says—"Get a New Suit or Over- coat, and when you are getting, get it made to your order, in your own town. where yon know what yon are getting, and that it is genuine Tailor-made." That would be wisdom; that would be un- derstanding. Our NEW SPRING GOODS have arrived, and it is not exaggerating to say that they include the nicest Iines we have had for 'some time, and at prices corresponding with the qualities shown. Space will not allow .ns to go into details, but WE HAVE THE GOODS and can make them any style desired. Wo are dealing in strong statements, but will back them up. We have yet to find the style of garments we cannot duplicate. Although plain, neat styles are more in line with strictly high-claba tailoring this season, it is for you to name your style—WE WILL MAKE IT.

Holmes -Whitechurch Ebitoriat —The Legislature has passed a bill requiring municipalities to secure a vote of the ratepayers before entering civic contracts and franchises extend- ing over the calendar year, --A. four per oent Ontario bond loan of $1,000,000 was floated in London one day recently, and in a few hours was all taken up at 102, That doesn't indicate that the Whitney policy is frightening British investors to any alarming extent.. —According to returns brought down in the House of Commons, it costs a lot of money to cover the ex- penses of borrowing money, In Octo- ber last, the Dominion Government had to borrow five million pounds sterling, or about twenty-five million dollars. It cost $600,000 to cover the charges. —Mr. B. E. Young, superintendent of railway lands, appeared before the Forests and Waterways Committee on Tuesday, 0th inst. He computed the waterpowers of Canada at 20,682,- 907 horsepower, being equivalent to a supply of 551,137,590 tons of coal per annum. Speaking of forest wealth, Mr. Young said much ignorance ex- isted. It was variously estimated from 100,000,000 to 800,000,000 acres. Though not generally known, there was much less "merchantable" timber in Canada than in the United States, go to work at 7 it, in,, and work until 4 p, in, or 0 p. m., as the case may be, will still keep the same hours, only have more daylight after woik is over. A, number of Boards of Trade and School Boards have passed resolutions approving of the Bill, The following is the 33111;- -The sixteenth report on Ontario's Neglected and Dependent Children shows that Children's Aid Societies are doing a good work. With the large number of branch Societies in existence (fifty-seven) and the efforts in addition of many philanthropic workers from the ranks of public offi- cials, the clergy and private citizens, a great and far-reaching work has been done, the results of which can only be recognized in ageneral way in the im- proved social conditions prevailing throughout the country. Altogether four hundred and twenty-five children were placed under the guardianship of the Societies during the year to be provided with foster homes, making a total of about 5,200 who have been cared for in this way, and a total of about 3,650 who are still minors and under the active supervision of the office. This is but one branch of the work and it naturally calls for a great deal of thought and care in the work- ing out so that there may be no injus- tice, ill-treatment or other abuse of the rights of the children. Then, through the efforts of the various So cieties, the home life of over 4,000 other children has been made much better and cleaner, through personal interviews and warnings, without tak- ing them away from their natural surroundings. This is a particularly pleasing feature of the work, and is, after all, the main purpose of the law. BILI, 108. Whereas it ie desirable to adopt a local time in advance of the standard time now in use, with the object of promoting a more extended use and enjoyment of daylight during the summer months ; Therefore llls Maj- esty, by and with the advice and con- sent of the Senate and House of Com- mons of Canada, enacts as follows;-- 1. Tbis Act may be cited as. The Daylight Saving Act, 2. This Act shall notapply to the Yukon Territory. 3. From and after two o'clock in the morning of the last day of April in each year until • two o'clock in the morning of the last day of October in each year the local time shall be one hour in advance of the standard time now in use. 4, The time hereby established shall be known as local time, and when any period of time is mentioned in any Act of Parliament, deed or other legal instrument, the time mentioned or referred to shall, unless it is otherwise specifically stated, be held to be local time under this Act. 5. Greenwich mean time, as used for the purposes of astronomy and navigation, shall not be affected by this Act. —The Advance. fails to see any real good accomplished by the Senate. If the members *ere young, energetic and ambitious, they might do some- thing useful (perhaps). But they know that when they are sent there, that very little is expected of them. Some of them long desired a seat there, knowing that their days of use- fulness in other spheres were past. Others found a home there, when the electors refused to tolerate them in the Commons any longer. Then aside from their salary of $2,500, the old chaps want (and get) a lot of expensive little knick-knacks. The-Chesley En- terprise in figuring out some of the items of the cost of the Senate says :— In one session the cost to this country .for magnifying glasses for the 86 sad - eyed Senators was $823.35. Their tra- velling stationery cases cost dear old Canada $1,486.77. They were supplied with 167 fitted cases at a cost of $2,- 170.51. And purse bags in which to carry the wad amounting to $2,500 an- nually they get out of the public treasury for services supposed to be rendered, cost the taxpayers of this country $588.27. And 12 dozen scis- sors were bought for the 80 Senators at a cost of $129.00. If the Auditors' Report into which some hard working farmers should have a peep, only showed thread, buttons and needles, they might do their own patching and sewing on of buttons, rendered neces- sary by an ever increasing expansion from eating and drinking and little bodily exercise. But the scissors do not complete the list. The public paid for nine dozen ivory pocket pencils costing $108.98, Gold pencils were purchased at a cost of $1001,56, and eleven dozen knives at $292.17. THE DAYLIGHT BILL. The committee of the House of Com, MOOS to whom "The Daylight B1.11" has been referred is anxious to secure as far as possible the opinions of The people regarding the Bill. Mr. Lewis, M. P. for West Huron, who introduced the Bill, states that its effects would be as follows :- 1. To move the usual hours of work and leisure nearer to sunrise. 2, To promote the greater use of daylight for industrial and recreative purposes of all kinds. 8. To benefit the physique, general health and 'welfare of all classes of the eommunity. 4. To reduce the ;industrial, eoPt modal and dotuestic itxpenditure on artificial light, The Bill Will loot interfere with the present hours of labour, Those vibe 6. This Act shall come into force one year after the passing thereof.. Paralyzed By Lumbago. Manual labor or even light exercise is impossible with lumbago. Tho muscles stiffen out like steel, to move means agony. Only a powerful reme- dy can penetrate deep enough to help. The surest relief comes from rubbing in Nerviline. It sinks into the very root of the trouble, pene- trates where an oily liniment cannot go. To prevent `lumbago •returning put on a Nerviline Porous Plaster which removes inflammation and strain from the muscles, and acts as a guard from draughts and exposure. All dealers sell Poison's Nervilir.e and Nerviline Porous Plasters. Refuse all substitutes. BIG THINGS IN CANADA.

DRCTOR SAID ONLY ZAM-BU1 COULD CURE HER ECZEMA. —Mr, R. Stewart, of hear Fiesherton, has a prolific flock of ewes, twelve in number, which have now at their feet twenty-four fine lambs doing well, Ten of the flock gave birth to twins and' two triplets, but one Iamb each of the latter died. • In view of the numerous cures which Zam-Buk has worked when all. else has failed, there is little wonder that in the end the doctor attending Mrs. J. P. St. Denis, of 305 Thompson Street, Winni- ' peg, should tell her there was nothing but Zain-Buk could cure her. The re- sult showed the far-seeing wisdom of the practitioner, and having been com- pletely cured by Zam-Buk, Mrs. St. Denis gives her experience for the ben- efit of other sufferers. She says: "Eczema started on one side of my face and nose. At first my nose felt sore, similar to what one feels when having a bad cold, I paid no attention to this, thinking it would pass away in a day or so, but to my surprise it got worse, The nose then became swollen and hard, and turned a purplish red, as well as part of the cheek on that side of my face„,,As the disease developed, pimples and air& uleers broke out, then the .skin cracked in places and peeled off in flakes, leaving my nose raw and sore. This condition re -acted on my general health, and I became very 111 I could get not sleep at night because of the irritation and pain, and my face was in such ashock- ing condition that for two months I did not go out of the house. I applied remedies which were supposed to be good for skin diseases, but in vain. My doctor also treated me, but with. out effect, until one day he said that the only thing which would now be Iikely to cure me was Zam-Buk. "Acting on his advice, I procured a supply and found that even the first few applications had a soothing effect on the soros. I left off everything else in favour of this balm, and applied it liberally every day to the effected parts,. In a. remarkably short time, considering the obstinate nature of my disease, we saw traces of iinprovement Which `encouraged us to persevere With the Zam-Buk treatment. Zam-Buk reduced the discoloration, then the hard swelling began to show traces of leaving, the sores seemed to be less angry, and in about three weeks' time moat of the sores were healing nicely. To cut a long story short, I continued with the Zatn.Bnk treatment until my face was cleared completely of all trac- es of the troublesome and painful eczema." Zain-Bu`k is a sore cure for cuts, lac- erations, burns, eczema, zing -worms, �yoisoned wounds, festering sores, bad leg. and all skin injuries and diseases. It IS also a cure fur piles.
