tremble ;there is weakness iu your knees;
your skin is pale and parched; you are
restless at night and tired when you

worry, late hours, hot days, and want
of blood. Dr, Williams' Pink Pills is
the only cure. They make now, rich,

RUE PEDDLER NUISANCE.
(From the Farmers' Advocate.)
There is throughout the country a
class of people whose industry and
persiateney are most remarkable, and
would lea highly eommeaidable if ex
ereised in productive effort. We al-
lude now to pack, peddlers. Condi-
tions here seem to b» suitable to the
aaisteuco of this cla,se, for it is ob-
vious that if the peddler were dis-
couraged, he w;,uld soon turn his tate
tention to productive work, It is
the people, then, who are responsible
for the peddler nuisance, far the
People buy from him, and' , so en-
courage him in hie vocation.
In times when labor was plentiful,
the peddler was tolerated because
everyone recognized how difficult . it
was to get work at some useful occue
pation, and we could not help but ad-
mire the determination and patience
of the poor foreigner who tramped
from house to house trying to pro-
vide a sustenance under most adverse
circumstances. But conditions have
changed, and men of all classes are
now wanted for productive work.
The cities want laborers, and the
country wants men cf all grades% '"if
skill, from the competent young Ca-
nadia,n to "the most illiterate and im-
provident beet thinner. Work is of-
fered to all, and ,there is) iso apology
to be offered en the grounds of inex-
perience.
Another reason why the peddlar
should be discouraged is becausq his
goods are of a poor quality and of
a relative high price, And are of 'that
class which middlemen meke most
profit. There is nothing he sells that
cannot be bought in. the nearest vil-
lage, unless it be his trashy jewellery,
which is practically worthless, and
when an obliging merchant carries 'a
large stock of perishable goods, and
gc•.xls upon which there is but little
profit, he deserves the people's pat-
ronage en goods that give the handler
a fair margin, such as the peddler
handles.

dler merely to get rid cf Quim, xir, out

vitation to come again, and a man yes

ary peddler certainly is note in need

instances women are terrorized by
these men, and bay simply to. get

There are two means of lessening
the peddler evil, far evil it is. One
is to positively ref tree Le bay from
him, and the other 1st to. tense • the

In order to entirely abolish this nuis-
ance, no doubt both these measures
are necessary. At prsent the county
officials exercise the right to license
peddlers, and the amount is deter-
mined according to the stlitaisility, cf
the county for the peddler. business.
These licenses might easily be made
prohibitive if people would insist upon
it, and there is not the. slightest
doubt that it would result int the
greatest goad to the greatest num-
ber of people, and would divert a few

AN AGE OF HURRY.
The financial undoing of so many peo-
ple of small means through the recent
slump in stocks, illustrates again the old
saying that the only sure way to make
mouey is to save it, says the London
Advertiser. Tbere is no romance so
fascinating as the romance of gold. The
spectacular winnings of a few have
dazzled the many. They have been
bitten by the craze to get rich in a hurry
and have lost respect for the old-fashion-
ed virtues of thrift and frugality. The
get -rich -quick scheme is typical of the
times. The infirmity rens through
every department of life. President
Eliot, of Harvard University, in his
the patient on au empty stomach four
times daily; and must be mixed in milk
and water only ; nothing also. The dose
sherd.' begin with one drachm of the
fluid, itud be gradually increased to two
ounces. It is essential that the patient
under treatment should entirely abstain
from alcohol during treatment. and
that he should observe strict diet in
order to avoid vomiting and diarrhoea.
Molasses produced from any kind of
sugar cane will do, but the thick, dark -
colored hind is preferable and more
efficient. The Midelesex and Bromp-
ton cancer hospitals in London are to
try the new euro immediately. Both
institutions have secured casks of pure
Louisiana molasses, and are eagerly
awaiting fuller instructions by letter
from Dr. Henzell.
That was something of a scorcher
which Bishop Baldwin gave to the lay-
' T" men of Huron diocese at the synod.
He said that "he found in his experience
that he could get ten women to help
him, while the call to men met no re-
sponse. The men with all their talk,
wanted Sunday to yawn or to go for a
walk, in order to air their cobwebby
brains. When asked to take part in
church work they said that they had to
work hard all day and begged to be ex-
cused. The conduct of many of the
educated laymen was perfectly scanda-
lous. It reminded him of the callous-
ness in Rome, where the Emperor and
nobles lived on while poor gladiators
were killed to please them. Too many
congregations told the clergy to do all
the work. They needed more laborers,
more interest, above all, more piety.
They wanted more laymen to develop
the Sunday school life." If that exhor-
tation does not put new life and energy
into the army of shirkers, their case is
hopelesgl indeed. There ought to be
virtue in such plain speaking. -Hamil-
ton Times.
Americans were in such a hurry they
were los lg their manners. The haste
to acqire an "education" is destructive
of true culture. The majority of young
men will not take the time to thorough-
ly ground themselves in their work, or
get down to first principles in any sub-
ject. They want to reap without sow-
ing. The soil is not favorable for the
germination of large and luminous ideas,
hense so many half-baked graduates
turned loose on the world. The hurry
to get rich is the master passion. The
good old plodding ways are despised.
People race through life and hays no
time to learn what real life is. The
means of living are reckoned more im-
portant than living , itself. Oar slow-
gowing ancestors did not move so fast,
but they probably get more out of life.
"Raw haste" is "half-sister to delay."
Reserve Force.
The healthy body has a certain amount
of strength reserved in case of emerg-
ency, attack by disease or unusual phys-
ical exhaustion, without this power of
resistance a person is an easy prey to
every ill that comes along. By enrich-
ing the blood and creating new nerve
cells, Dr. Chase's Nerve Food keeps
the health at high water mark and fills
the body with the vigor and vitality that
overcomes and defies disease.

The Strawberry season is at hand, and
this dellicious fruit is not without its
advocates as to its advantages in rheu-

rheumatic and gouty, but with distinct
advanage, if not relief. It is a some-

lic acid, which is a specific in acute

acid would appear to bo a normal con-
