TELE PITIABLE STORY QF A. YOUNG
GIRL.
Every alot her of a Grawats earl Ue In-
terest4d. bt the Story as Told by the
Young Lady.
Miss Laura Damontier is the daugh-
ter a a well•to- do termer in St. Cuth-
bert, Qnebeo. The circumstances under
wklch she was forced to discoutinue
her studies and leave school will be
of interest to all mothers of growing
girls, and Miss Dumoutier consents to
make them public for the beuetit her
experieuee may be to others. She says:
-At the age of twelve I vvas sent to a
conveut school in this parish. At that
time I was as healthy as any girl a my
age. At the end of a couple of years,
however, I felt my streugth leaviug me.
My appetite grew poor, and I suffered
from severe headaches. I nevertheless
continued my studies until October, 1901
when became very ill and was forced
to leave school. The headitehes that had
bothered me became almost constaut.
I suffered front paius in the back and
stomach. and the least exertion would
leave me almost breathless. A doctor
was called in and he said I was suffering
from auttemia, and was in a very dang-
erous condition. He treated me until
February witheut the least beneficial
result. Then another doctor Was called
in, but no better result followed his
treatment. Pay parents were now
thoroughly alarmed and twocpther doc-
tors from S. Ba.rthelemi were called iu
and after consultatiou their verdict was
that my trouble had reached au incur-
able stage. I was greatly disheartened
and did not expect to live long when one
day oue of my friends asked me why I
did not try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I
had lost confidence in all medicines, but
was willing to try anything that might
laelp me, and my father got me a supply
of Lae pills. When I had used a couple
of boxes it was very plain that the pills
were doing me good, and after I had
taken them a couple of months I was
once more enjoying the blessing of good
health. I feel that Dr. Willietus' Pink
Pills have saved my life aud I gladly
give my experience in the hope that it
may be of benefit to some other young
girls."
No discovery of moderu times has
proved such a blessing to youug girls

Where is Your Boy To -Night?
The following excellent article is taken
front the Guelph Herald and is applicable
to more places than Guelph and Wing -

where it will be applicable: -
People who have occasion to move
about the city after dark must be struck
by the number of children of tender
years who are allowed to roam at will in
the streets. Laxity of parental discipline
cannot be overcome by ringing a bell or
sending a policeman in chase of vagrant
children. The duty of looking after the
little ones at home must be performed
by the parent or not performed at all.
The proper place for children after
dark is at home and in bed. Daylight
affords them ample time for out -door
recreation and confronts them with as
many temptations as their weak little
natures are able to withstand. Hard it
is to understand father or mother sitting
contentedly in their homes while boy or
girl of fifteen, twelve, and sometimes
ten years is parading the streets at night.
That father and mother expect the child
who at such an early age is needlessly
subjected to the grave dangers that lark

following official statement:
"At midnight. Monday the Empres*
bound to Hong Kong, was passing
the Chinese crusier, both vessels be-
ing on parallel courses and going in
the same direction. When about up
to the Chinese cruiser her captain
suddenly and without any warning
starboarded and came across the hove
of the Empress, which at once man-
oeuvred into a position which re-
sulted in the blow from the cruiser
being a glancing one instead of a di-
rect compact. The cruiser, in sliding
aft along the mail steatne.r, did some
damage to the upper works of the
latter, but she herself was struck by
the starboard propeller of the Era -
press, and sank in 90 minutes. One

Ottawa, Aug. 19. -The leader of
the Opposition yesterday, in a speech,
of two hours' duration, suggested an
alternative to the schemo for a
transcontinental railway submitted
by the G overnment. Ile advoeated
tne purchase of the Canada Atlantic
Railway; the nationalizatiofl by pur-
chase of the unprofitable section of
the C.P.R. between North Bay 'and
Port Arthur; the improvement of one
or both the railways between that
point and Winnipeg, and the acquisi-
tion of running rights over them,
and the control of the Government
railways by a commission. Ron.,
Charles Fitzpatrick, who followed,
asked what Mr. Borden's proposition
would cost, and whether it would
furnish any better solution of the
problem than that presented by the
Government. He quoted Sir John
A. Macdonald and Sir Charles Tup-
per against the alternative proposi-
tion and Lord Strathcona, an.d Hon.
Mr. Blair in favor of the Govern-
ment's position. Mr. Fitzpatrick, in
vigorous terms, protested against
the insinuations by Hon. Mr. Blair
against the motives of his col-
leagues, and challenged that gentle-
man to either make charges or re-
cede from lats posit f on. Dr. Russell
