Holmes Yihltechorch THE PEOP,E►S HERITAGE, (Ilamilton Herald.) Announcement is made that the Ontario Governmenthas received from a syndicate of capitalists, ' an Offer of twenty million dollars for the Gillies mining limit in the et - bait district, If this sum were oare- fully invested, the laterest on it would increase the total annual rev- enue of the province by ten pee cent„ and would amount, to nearly three times the sum now annually spent by the Government on hospitals and charities, Tim© was, and not so very long ago, that only partial recognition was given to the truth that the min= eral wealth of the province belongs tightly to all the people of the pro- vince. The truth is now admitted, and the 'Whitney Government's min- ing policy is based on it, The rich Gillies limit wasreserved for the use and benefit of the people, and the people will derive the benefit of the enhanced value given to it by the successful enterprise of individual prospectors and operators. Eneour- agement is rightly given to private mining enterprise, and large rewards aro rightly allowed to those who risk their money in milling invest- ments, because it is better- policy that the people should share in the success of private enterprise than that the Government— should under- take to do all the work and assume all the risk. But the reservation of the Gillies limit as the absolute property of the Crown, not t'o be exploited at all for private profit, was a wise application of the princi- ple that the minerals of the pro- vince being public property,bte Gov- ernment is justified in utilizing its proprietory right in such manner as is most expedient in the public interest. THE FILTHY FLY. In the United States a campaign} is being carried on against the filthy house fly, and the campaign it deemed of such importance, that it is suppor- ted by the Merchants' Retail Assoc- iation of New York. Tha following instructions sent out lax a municipality will give an idea of hoar the campaign is being conducted : The common house -fly is a carrier of disease. Typhoid fever, diarrhoea, dysentery and tuberculosis are carried by flies. No longer do we consider flies as merelyannoying, but we re- cognize in them a very important factor in the spread of certain diseases, particularly those mentioned above. The house -fly is particularly filthy, because it has its birth -place and lays its eggs almost exclusively in horse manure. Flips feed on food and also on the worst kind of filth. They go from one to the other. It is easy to understand how they, carry disease germs to our food ie. this manner. Our domestic animals, the dog antis cat, though far from clean in all their habits, we like to have about us, but we keep them in their proper place. The house -fly, on the other hand, is tolerated everywhere, crawls over our hands and faces, gets into the inilk, walks over all our food, often soiling and contaminating everything that comes in 'contact with its filthy feet and tongue, • Who has not seen flies feeding on sputum on our pavements and streets? And, as there are people who have consumption, continually spitting on the public pavements, is it not simple to see how the tensa of the disease can be taken up by the fly, carried away, and perhaps deposited in our homes ? How can we combat this 'dangerous nuisance ? The essential thing is to do away with the breeding plates of these dirty pests. It inay be said that flies -will breed in any decomposing animal or vegetable matter. The most common places are manure, uncleaned stables, privies, and in and about can5"and -re- ceptacles used for the storage of gar- bage. Every householder, in self de- fence, should destroy the breeding places of these pests. Store garbage in tightly covered cans, kept in a screened inclosure, so that flies cannot get to it ; see that it is removed very frequently during the summer months. Wash and disinfect cans frequently. Store manure so that flies cannot get at it to lay eggs, and have it remelt -ed once a Week All persons selling food of any description should see thdt the geode are protected from 'flies,' and should not expbse food in front of their stores where it can be contaminated by both flies and street dust. Do not allow decaying matter of any kind to accumulate on your premises. ,WScreen the doors and windows of your house, particularly the kitchen, in order to keep the flies from entering and get- ting on the food, Remember that the female fly lays about one hundred and twenty eggs, which in Course of a few hours become maggots, and after an - •other transformation the full grown fly appears at the encs, of ten days. As in most matters of sanitation and hygiene, cleanliness is the watchword, Cleanliness about your.house and pro- perty will prevent flies breeding. Dr. Hamilton's Care For Pimples.

Cure Affected In Both Cases. Mr. F. Rasmussen, of 211, Marquette Street, Montreal,,,. wvho• is a Justice of the Peace, and a man not inclined to give praise except where it is well due, says :—"For many year's I was troubl- ed with a serious eruption of the skin. This was not only unsightly, but very painful. I first tried various house- hold remedies, but as these proved altogether useless, I took medical ad- vice. Not one, but several doctors in turn were consulted, butI, was unable to get any permanent S'eliet Some time back I determined to give Zara-Buk a trial, and after a thorough- ly fair test, I can can say I am delight- ec,:with it. I have the best reasons for this Conclusion ; because, while every- thing I tried felled absolutely to re- lieve my pain and rid me of my trouble, three boxes of Zara -Bak worked a complete cure. In my opinion this balm should be even 'more widely known than it is." Mr. 0. E. Sanford, J. P., of Weston, King's Co., N. S.. says :—I had a patois of eczema on my ankle, which bias been there for over twenty year. Sento- tithes, also, the disease would break out on my shoulders. I had taken solution of arsenie, had applied various ointments, and tried all sorts of things to obtain a cure, but in vain. Zasn- Bak„on the contrary, proved highly satisfactory, and cured the a]hnent. - "I have also used Iain-Buk for itch - leg piles, and it has cured them con- pletely, 1 take comfort in helping my brother -men, and if the publication of my OpIiiii011 of the healing value of Zana-Buk will lead otber sufferers to try it, I should. bo glad, Pot the re- lief of suffering caused by piles or skin diseases, it is without equal,” For eczema, eruptions, ulcers, piles, blood -poisoning, 'ariooso ttleore, children's sore ieads, ringworms, salt rhm, mite, scratches, burns, bruises, and all skin Nitride, Zattn,-link is a per• foot sure, All Druggists aed Stores Bell at 50e. a bots, or poet -free from Zutn'Buk 0o„ Toronto, for prlee. Three boxes for $1.25, 't THE. PRICE or WHEAT. Seldom has wheat been so scarce in Ontario as at the present time, 'WWI* Iast week, it was, quoted nominally at 425 at Toronto, the filling of orders would be a rather difficult matter, Almost everywhere the tendency is steadily upward. Chicago Wheat for May delivery, was quoted recently at $1.28,x,. July wheat �,is quoted at 1/4 $1,18i. This condition shows a keen- ness for -immediate delivery which is not usual. Speaking generally, July wheat should stand at about lee. to 2c. per bushel higher than May, wheat, to defray storage expenses and shrinkage, instead of which tho cash petiole is quoted at close to lac. per bushel more than the latter. Present prospects do not favor lower prices, at least not be- fore the new wheat is on the merket, LEFT ON HER DOORSTEP FOR THIS MOTHER. Mrs, A, G, Tuson, of Livermore, Cal., writes ; "1 picked up from my doorstep one day a little book in which I soon beearne very much interested. My little girl of five years of age bad been troubled for a /long time with loss of appetite, extreme nervousness and undue fatigue. She was all run- down and in a very delicate condition. "This little book was very compre- hensively written, and told of the new method of extracting the medical ele- ments of the cod's liver from the oil, eliminating the obnoxious oil which is so hard for children to take. '"Just the thing„ said I, 'for my Iititle daughter,' and I immediately went for a bottle of Vince. It helped her wonderfully, . She has gained rapidly in flesh and strength, and she does not take cold half so easily. "I am extremely grateful for the good it has done.her, and I hope other mothers who have weak, delicate or ailing children will be benefited by my experience and just give Vinol a trial."
