Intrinsic Value of
Hood'sSarsa Sarsaparilla.
i
Merit in medicine means the power to
cure. Hood's Sarsaparilla possesses actual
and unequalled curative power and there-
fore it has true merit. When you buy
Hood's Sarsaparilla,and take it according
to directions, to purify your blood, or
euro any of the Many blood diseases, you.
are morally certain to receive benefit.
The power to euro is there. You are not
trying an experiment. It will make your
blood pure, rich and nourishing, and thus
drive out the germs of disease, strengthen
-the nerves and build up the whole system..
Hoo
Sarsaparilla
Is the best. In fact -the One True Blood Purifier.

With the Present Tariff So Ear as Niagara
Township Is Coucerued.
Queenston, Nov. 10. -At a meeting of the
L''ruitgroweia of Niagara township, held at
Queenston, the question of the tariff as re-
gards fruit was etscussed. Among those
present were Messrs. William Ariestroug,
James Sheppard, 0. L. Bradley, 11, U.
Bradley, R. tiering, 0. Flatter, James Hum-
phries, W. Andrews, S. Sheppard. L'. ... J.
Stoppard, It. Currie, it. .1. Sheppard,
Queenstou; E. Thowpsou, C. Secoru, tsrau-
tham; Joseph Healey, Niagara. One euair
was occupied by Dir. 0. Fisher, with Dir.
W. A. J. Sheppard as secretary.
Mr. Sheppard expresed his satisfaction
with the preaeut tarilr and the chairman ex-
pressed his coucurreuee.
Mr. O. L. Bradley thought if any re-
vision was to be made a duty should be
placed on bananas and that such a duty
would prove beneficial to the truitgrower.
Mr. Fisher thought so, too. Iso believed
they tntorrered greatly with the sale of
early peaches.
Mr. Armstrong spoke in favor of a high-
er toxin!, and claimed that one of their
principal opponeuts was the Province of
Sluebec.
It was moved by Mr. James Sheppard,
seconded by iter. W. Armstrong, that the
fruitgrowers of this section are satisfied
with the present taritr and do not wish
any changes made.
Mr. Charles Lowrey was not satisfied with
the tarill. He thought the duty on peaches,
grapes and berries was satisfactory, but
wanted the duty raised considerately on
pears and plums, say 1 cent per 10.
Mr. Sheppard's motion was carried, and
then Messrs. C. Fisher, W. Armstrong,

Nouse.
KEEPING THE STRUCTURE IN
GOOD CONDITION.
Filling it with Health, Com-
fort and Happiness.
When a house becomes dilapidated
h c, t r'iit of repair, it
and he) and the 1 liability r
P y F ,
is removed to make room for a struc-
ture that will have strength and per-
manency.
Our bodies when not properly cared
for, become frail, weak and broken-
down, and when the work of rebuild-
ing is not commenced in time, death
surely Clalnl8 the wasted and worn-out
frame, and it is r•emove..d forever.
Can we rebuild our wasted bodies ?
Yes ; the work can be done even
though the spark of life glimmers but
fitfully and feebly. This work of re-
building is done through the use of
Paine's Celery Compound, that mar-
vellous medicine which has brought
new life to so many in the past. This
heaven sent remedy acts ilireutly on
the great nervous system, giving new
strength to every nerve, snakes fresh
vitalizing blond, increases weight, and
gives fresh power to every hone and
muscle.
When this is accomplished by
Paine's Celery Compound. it is easy
work to keep the rebuilt house or
human structure - in good condition.
Ordinary care in diet, sleep and
general living will surely keep up the
good work. Then will tho rebuilt in;ln
or women he filled with trite health,
comfort and happiness, and, life will be
worth living.
Will you, dear reader, rebuild your
broken down system? Tho work can
he accomplished by you if you call to
your aid Paine's Celery Compound.
No physician is required to aid you, and
you have no heavy bill to meet
after you are made well and whole. The
work has been done for thousands of
others ; will you have your share of
the good that it bestows ?

CONCLUSIVE PROOF.
Froin a Weil Mace:am Citizen.
" My daughter Polly, has for more than a s oar
been troubled with severe symptoms of kidney
, disease. She had constarr;t and acuto pains in
her brick. The pain in her hold ,vas fearful
and almost uneudnre.bie. It f,egrontly pre -
anted her frein attrnding school, and she found
studyathem e a t iu 1.. slble.
1 C tCa;i r !; She had
no apetite, and did not sleep well. The pain
was very severe around her heart and sho was
much troubled with fluttering and palpitation.
She was completely worn out in body and was
*ea and drowsy all the time. Her mother
all myself became seriously alarmed as she
was., constantly getting worse.
"Last July my daughter Sarah, a teacher in
the Pauli° School at Kingsville, Ont., came
house to spend her vacation, and finding her
sister in such a distressing and dangerous
condition, said, 1 aux taking Doan's Kidney
Pills and they are doing me nluclr good, I have
a box with me and will divide with Polly. which
she did. By the time Polly had finished the
half box her improvement in health was
so Marked,' that 1 procured more from Mr.
1?'raloige's drugstore.
Her full restoration to health and spirits was
rapid and continuous. She has now none of
her former dangerous, painful and distressing
kidney troubles. She eats and sleeps well, and
for more than a month has enjoyed the most
vigorous health. She has not lost a day at
school since she commenced taking the pills,
and has so much faith in them since they
restored her to full health that she wants me
to keep six boxes in the house all the time, in
Case they should be needed and not available.
Her cure has been so wonderful she thinks they
will ours any complaint. If the pills had coat
$16u9 a box, I would not have begrudged the
money. The restoration of my daughter to full
health and strong girlhood, from her former
serious sickness, etc., has made her mother,
)myself and daughter a happy family.
T make this Emma statement with the full
approbation of my wife and daughter, volun-
tarily and without any urging or inducement
whatever, to show the gratitude my daughter,
wife and myself, feel for the wonderful cure
wrought by the Doan Kidney Pilis. We have
not the least doubt that her trying the pills
just at the time she did saved us a large
doctor's bill,as she was all but sick abed at
the time. I am sixty-two years, of age, a eer-
penter by trade, have been a resident of St.
Marc's for forty years, and county constable
for thirty years and am well known, and I make
this solemn declaration believing the same to
be true, and knowing the same to have the
same effect as an oath. and according to the
Aot respecting extra Judioal Oaths ]1199.

Buying Cows by Teets,
The North Carolina Experiment Station
proposes a plats for buying and selllug
cows based on the yield of their milk, to•
gather with the quality of the tume, tat
determined by tests of milk, The rule is
to pay for the cow at the rate of $12 per
gallon of milk givenper day that Is rich
enough to show 3.111 per cent. of fat, To
this prion acid or subtract one do)]ar for
every one-fourth of one per cent. of fat
which le above or below the 3%' per cent.
By this rule, a cow is bought entirely
upon her merits. It is believed to be a
conservative plan and one if adopted
(or one upon a similar plan) will raise
the standard of cows and increase their
milk and butter production, for if they
cannot be sold easily tor milch cows they
will soon be turned over to the eutoher,
and a better animal be kept, or a willing
purobaser ho found. The result oaunot
fail to be beneflolal to all parties.
The above illy digested plan is going
the rounds of the press. We wonder that
any one of good businees sense and hav-
ing any knowledge of dalrying should
propose le, and that it should be consid-
ered meritorious by any reputable paper.
Cows underfed or overfed at the time of
test would make or lose money for either'',
buyer or seller. Again, some cows give
heavy amounts of mill; when first drop-
ping their calves, and then after a month
or two drop sharply off, falling beneath
the yield of others that start with a small
yield and hold up close down to the dry-
ing time. But, again, age would much
modify the value of a cow, while it is
more than doubtful whether a Holstein

u
ing 572 would not bring too muob own.
pared with a Jersey starting out with
throe and ono -halt gallons and 0 per cent.
of fat, and bringing in tho rule $52. For
125 pounds extra of fat on a yield of 5,000
pounds of milk, 150 pounds extra of but-
ter would result, worth not 510 but
$37.50 yearly at 25 cents per pound in a
given yield for te
t each co. Now an increase
of 71.4 por cent, fat from 3% per cont.
Increases the sale value of a cow but $10,
while an increase of 71.4 per cent., in
milk flow from 3ta gallons increases
the sale value 530. Other ubjeotions

practical men to reject the scheme
