FINED FOR SHIPPING LIQUOR. —A further echo of the recent whiskey ease, arising of chief Cameron's sei- zure of liquor in Lucknow, was heard in Palmerston yesterday (Wednes- day) afternoon. On a change of ship- pingdiquor to Lueknow, a local option munteipality, knowing that the liquor was to be kept for sale, W. E. And - rich, a wlaolesade liquor dealer was brought, before the police Magistrate of Palmerston and was fined $25 and Costs, The minimum fine for the offence was $20. Lawyer Klein of Walkerton prosecuted for the lioense department and the defendant was represented by a Palmerston lawyer. As in the recent case in Lucknow, the defendant's plea shut off further in- vestigation, Chief Cameron was pre- sent AS a witness from Lucknow. In connection with this matter still an- other charge has been laid by the license department; this orie against Lucknow tna,n. A FEW Mono FINES.—Few people fully realize the stringeney of the Local Option law until they commit some offence against it. Some weeks ago a Lucknow man, who got "pinch- ed" for being drunk and having liquor in his possession, was fined twenty and costs. Not ba,ving sufficient, ready money to satisfy the demands of the law he paid $7 on account and was given a time to pay the balance. Whereupon he took leg bail for an- other town, and remained there. Two weeks ago another citizen, against whom a charge was pending for sup- plying liquor to a party in town, got wind of it and fortlawith decided to go West. Last week the party to whom the liquor was supplied appeared be- fore the magistrate and paid the mini- mum fine—$20 and costs for being drunk. Likewise the law compelled him to tell under oath from whom be got the liquor. This week still an- other Imam paid his fees to magistrate Davison. No partiality is shown to any who offend, and regretable as itis that prosecution should ever be neces- sary, nothing will more quickly bring about strict law observance than such a rigid enforcement of the law.

A Medicine That Does Not Cost Anything Unless It Cures. The active medicinal ingredient of Rexall Orderlies which is odorless, tasteless and colorless is a compara- tively new discovery. Combined with other extremely valuable ingredients, it forms a perfect bowel regulator, intestinal invigorator and strengthen- er. Rexall Orderlies are eaten like candy and are notable for their agree- ableness to the palate and gentleness of action. They do not cause griping or any disagreeable effect or incon- venience, Unlike other preparations for a like purpose, they do not create a, habit, but it stead they act to overcome the cause of habit acquired through the use of ordinary laxatives cathartics and harsh physic, and permanently reinove the came of constipation or irregular bowel action.
