We may truly say of ourselves as one of the English speakers said of themselves, that,, in some particulars "continental nations surpass us." While the British dairy farmer has been asleep, scene of his neighbors have seized the opportunity, and have eyolved a system 01 marketing suited to the needs of the case; by which he has made Immense profits out of the great consuming British public. Iu France, as I shall show :in later writing a principal characteristic of their flourishing butter trade is A TRADE SYSTEM: suited to the conditions of the market. Denmark is fully alive to this phase of the industry, We should profit by this fact, If it be difficult for the butter -maker with- in a half -day's journey of London to get into hie own market, how much more diffi- cult10 supply that market, for us who. have.ten days' travel to accomplish. Ifftha Englishman who is on the spot is distanc- ed by the foreigner, who has a better mar- ket system, how may we expect' to get a foot -hold, is the face of active and in- telligent competition, by ambling along se- renely, in a free and easy way, trusting, to ,chance rather than to intelligent, well di- r °ted effort ? The not very creditable an - sever tothis question is an expiring Canas dlau butter trade. The lesson to be learn- ed is the necessity to rouse ourselves, and by our energies to put new life into that which is too valuable to lose without a strug gle to save it. MARGARINE 1 'MARGARINE 1 This poetic word is, to the British farm- er; full of ghoulish meaning. He awoke one morning to find the British publics eat- ing this strange thing, under the impres- sion that it was butter. When he got fully awake he uttered a stoat John Bull protest. The latter took the form of an ni:peal to British law, making the exceedingly reason- able demand, not that the consumer be aa- tually forbidden to eat the stuff, but that he might know when he is eating it. He succeeded in making him know when he is buying it. How much the hearty British public eats of margarine it knows right well -as a public, but not individually. Some think the law is not effeotively enforced. "Although the English whole- sale hooses probably sell margarine ae such, the name may get lost before the product leaves the village grocer." So said. Mr. Smith at the conference; but one will notice everywhere in England, side by side with butter, in nearly all the provision shops, an article labelled "margarine" of several qualities. and at various.- prices, al- ways lower then butter. From this fact I was led to infer that, though there may have been, and doubtless is yet, more or fess illicit eale, the law mast be enforced somewhat thoroughly, for otherwise, such labels would not be used so conspicuously. I would attach more weight to a statement like the following: -Although the grocers probably sell margarine as such its name and identity is probably lost before it, ap• pears as butter on a great many English tables—boarding.house tables eepeoially. If my Canadian readers, few of whom have ever seen margarine, have any duriosity to know how good an imitation of butter it is, let them visit England, and they will easily and often see it as they pass. through the streets of towns, and—whether they will or not—will be likely to eat it. One thing is assured ; in England MARGARINE f3A0 COME TO STAY News Nottsa. Buffalo has more new cases of smallpox, and an epidemio still threatens. Two car loads of cotton were shipped on Thursday from Kingston to China. A SEVER'. TRIAL. Frances S. Smith, of Emsda'e, Mukoka, writes, "I was troubled with vomiting for two years, and I have vomited ae often as fives times a day. .One bottle of Burdock Blood Bittern cured me." The new Canadian Electrio Light Com- pany undertake to supply householders in Moutreel with electric light at a less figure than is now being paid for gas. A POSTMASTER'S OPINION. "I have great pleasure in certifying to the ueefulness of Hagyard's Yellow Oil," writes D. Kavanagh, postmaster, of Um- fraville, Ont., "having used it for soreness of the throat, burns, colds, to., I find nothing equal to it." The fire in the Chicago Opera House did $20,000 damage. ' ' A LUCIe'Y ESCAPE. "For six. years I suffered with my throat and enlarged tonsils. I was very weak; I doctored lour years and had advice from three doctors; they said I would have to undergo an operation. I tried B. B. B. instead. • One bottle cured me." M. A. Squelch, Raglan, Ont. The value of all crops in Iowa this year is estimated at $240,000,000. BEYOND DISPUTE. There is no better, eider or more pleasant cough res�eay made than Iiagyard's Pen- toral Balrlam. It cures Hoarsenes Sore- Throat,`C�'onghs, Colds, Bronohitis and all throat and lung troubles. The Domooratio Senators have agreed to let the Tariff Bill take its regular course. A HINT TO HOUSEKEEPERS. Mrs. 'Robert Williamson, of Glenila, Parry Sound, Ont., says, "I could not keep house without Hagyard's 'Yellow Oil at hand. I have used it in my family for croup, sore throat and a cut foot, and can highly recommend it to everybody." OTTAWA, Deo. 13.—The Canadian Pork Packers' Association want the Government to adopt treasures to prevent the imports, tion of American adulterated lard, which is at present brought Into 'competition with the pure Canadian artiole. They want the duty on American pork fixed at 2 cents per pound. Derr. Bowel' promieed to consider the matter. A SEVERE ATTACK. ' "I never felt better in my life than I have since taking Burdock Blood Bitters. I had a severe bilious attack; I could not oat for several days, and was unable to work, One bottle cured me."

The Brit tish public --a large portion of it—has made up its mind to eat margarine, knowing it to be meth ; because they know it to be oheap and believe it to be wholesome. The pree- antcondition of things—the unwelcomein- trnsiob of the thing, the inclination of the few to accept the situation and make what they can of it, and the general temper of the British farmer to protest and to wash his hands of the whole iniquity—are well seen in the following editorial in the Liver- pool Echo of ?,fay 80, (1888 "At the Dairy Farming conferences just held iu the eastern counties an extraordinary piece of advice was given in a paper read by Pro - fagot Long, 'If,' he said, 'the publiotaste for margarine conlirtuee to increase, it will toe a question for dairy farmers to discuss whether they should not participate in the profits of that trade, which we are bound. to believe are more tangible than those voiy problematical profits connected with the more ancient indnstry.' 11 Professor Long were a repreeoutative of the dairy in terests of New York and otter transatlantic etatee, he could not have given 'English produoer•smore pernicious and suicidal counsel.

Amid the conflicts of public sentiment it is pleasant to observe that there is one subject upon which all parties, seets and classes think alike. We refer to the ben- eficent.reform an the pratioe of medicine of which Tato r g HOLLOWAY is the author. Whatever may be the difference of opinion as to the beat cures for politicalevils, there are none as to the best remedies for dis- ease. The experiment has been made and ets suocees is assured by an uninterrupted iseriea of triumphs extending over many years, and covering every variety of human ailments. All plots at parties, all schemes of political aggrandizmont, sink into insig- nificance when contrasted with the scope and objects of an enterprise which showers its remedial influence wherever death threatens or physical pain exists. To ex - Plain the uses of Holloway's Pills and Ointment, to point out the certainty and rapidity with which they operate upon the elementary germs of disease, to recount the cures which they are daily accomplish= tng in cases that have been pronouaoed be- yond tho reach of medicine, to reproduce here tho proofs of their infallibility with whiah the public journals throughout the world continually teem, would be to fill our oolmmlle with information always familiar to an intelligent people. In the wooded wilderness and the inhospitable marshes, in the gilded saloon an in lowly cottages, on the fishing grounds, on the borders of the inland SORB, and in the peettire lands of the interior, as in the densely populated towns, everywhere these preparations are reakened among the •necessaries of life. Never and agate, bilious and fever: rheuma- tism, asthma, and all obhercompiaints that are concomitants of exposure and privation or the effect of a vitiated atmosphere, are so readily and uniformly eontrolled by the Pills and Ointment, that all clarifies accept and use, and aehnowledge them to be the one groat world's tomady for disease, re towns where tuttricere living and the them', and indulgencies of social life lead to many of the maladies produced by other eanses in the country, the beneficial opotation of those medicines leas been no loss marked and palpable; and their popularity, fdancled as it is upon the daily exporieneo of the eickr 'meat always acntiuuo to increase as ease is preferred to paid. ---The Advaeate.
