It looks as if very high prices v ill

price of Manilla hemp, accordiag to
the commerce and finance report of
the United States has been running at
from 11 to 11 3-8b, sibolesale in New
evesince the middle of October.
Sisal hemp during the same time has
been xunning from S to 9c. The price
of these raw materials from which
binder twine is made is higher than
for any year since 1896, save during
the winter of 1890 and 1900. In Jan.
of last year Manilla was running in
New York at 7 34 cents and Sisal at
6c In the early part of 1896 Manilla
was as lovv as 4 1-2 and Sisal 3 34c.

LIFE GUARDS.
The Life Guards are two regiments
of cavalry forming part of the British
household . troops. They are house-
hold troops. They are gallant sol-
diers, and every loyal British 'heart
is proud of them. Not only the King's
household, but yours, ours, every-
body's should have its life guards.
The need of them is especially great
when the greatest foes of life,
diseases, find allies in the very ele-
ments, as colds, influenza, catarrh,
the grip and pneumonia, do in the
stormy month of March. The best
way that we know of to goard
against these diseases is to strengthen
the system with Hood's Sarpaparilla-
the greatest of all life guards. It re-
moves the conditions in which these
diseases make their most successful
attack, gives vigor and tone to all the
vital organs and functions. and im-
parts a genial warmth to the blood.
Remember tbe weaker tbe system the
greater the exposure to disease.
Hood.'s Sarsaparilla makes the system
strong.

' repeated story that he had decided to
resign from his position in the cabinet.
However much sortie of his colleagues '
may , desire a changrin this positive
decision, it is well known that Mr.
Blair is not one to go tinder without a
struggle. Than he has the undying
hostility of some of his confreres is an
undoubted fact, ever since Hon. J. L
Tarte bitterly opposed hina in the mat-
ter of granting a chartee to the Crow's
Nest Railway Compony. Mr. Tarte
had the active support of Hon. Clifford
Sifton on that occasion, inasmuch as
the Minister of the Interior introduced
a bill binding conclitioos which Mr.
air, Jacob Henry, of the same to-
tts,:ep;
ship, with obtaining money under Tarte insisted upon: but which Mr.
declared against. Mr. Tarte

the Park Street bridge. The passage
MS completely -blocked and the river
was soon full of ice as far up as the
Lockup sclaool. The. water began to
rise -very rapidly, and the bridge was
in deoger. The small boys, however,
carried some heavy stones to the edge
of the bridge and dropped them on
the cakes of ice which were causing
all the trouble, with the result that
they snapped in two, and no further
trouble occurring tbe channel was
clear in a few minates. Thus a serious
trouble was averted.

and Mr. Sitton triumphed on that
occasion, and it is hardly necessary to
add, that the result of this public
affront to Mr. Blair has uot resulted
in that degree of friendliness which is
desirable and necessary when good
government is to be had.
But more humiliating to Mr. Blair,
was the forceful criticism to which he
was subjected at the Liberal caucus
held a few days ago. The rank and
Ale of the party, from Quebec and the
Maritime Provinces, were in open re-
bellion against Mr. Blair's system of
distributing tbe patronage of the In-
tercolonial Railway, and the Minister
was asked for explanations. The sup-
porters of Sir Wilfrid Laurier were
not coneerned with the deficit of near-.
ly one million dollars, the result of
Mr. Blair's management for 3901, but
rather how they might divert the fin-
ancial flow in directions which would
best serve their individual political in-
terests. . Mr. Blair listened to the ad-
vice and then took a trip.to New York;
much the same kind of journdy as he
made at the time of the Olergue con-
tract revelations. Mr. Blair, it is re-
ported, was in a very unpleasant frame
of mind on both occasions. Now that
he recovered from this latest attack,
developments arising from party dis-
union will be watched with interest
dnring the present session.

mains of the man killed on tbe G.T.R.

SUICIDE, -There was a suicide near
St, Marys Wednesday afternoon, last
week. Miss Gertie Forman, the 18
year old daughter of Er. Jos. H. For-
man, who conducts a tile yard about
two nriles south of the town, took
poison and died before medical aid
could reach her. It appears that Miss
Forman, had asked her father for the
use of the horse for a couple of days,.
but he had declined, as he had to go
to town and needed the horse himself.
His daughter got worked rip over the
dissapointment, and told her mother
she would poison her self. The
threat was not credited, but the girl
went upstairs to her bedroom, barri-
caded the door from within by mov-
iug the bed against it, and took the
poison. The poison was strychnine,
mixed with apple sauce, Shortly the
screams of the unfortunate girl called
the household to her and on gaining
entrance she was found in the throes
of awtul agony, and. died in about half
an hour. Medical assistance arrived
later but it was impossible to do any-
thing. Miss Forman was of a bright
cheerful temperament. It is under-
stood that she had carried this poison
about her since attending the Pan-
American in Buffalo, and last week it
is said that she stated that she knew
the taste of poison.

A Marvellous Spring
Health Giver and Invigorator.
Paine's Celery Compound
ruffles the Blood as Nothing
Else Can Do.
It Nourishes the Tired Brain and
Braces the Weal Nerves.
Paine's Celery Compound purifies
the blood as nothing else can do; it is
nature's brain food; It builds up weak
and shattered nerves ; it is the wprld's
best and surest health -giver, .
Paine's 'Celery Compound taken dur-
ing the opening of spring, has a re-
markable efficacy of making sick peo'-
ple well and. strong. It makes short
work of debility and neryous exhaus-
tion. It quickly drives out neuralgia,
rheumatism. sleeplessness and dyspep-
sia feom the system. Its virtues
promply banish kidney disease and
liver troubles. It enables all weak
and rundown men and women to cast
off their besetting troubles and gives
them a happy and vigorous life. Mr.
Chas. E. Beek, Goderich, Ont., whose
life was directly saved by the use of
.Paine's Celery Compound after
other medicines had failed to do any
good work, writes as follows:
"I am a tanner by trade, anti about
thirteen years age lied an attack of
rheumatic fever. While recovering I
took a cold and had a relapse which
ended in infiamittory rheumatism,
and I was laid up for years. .1 was al-
so afflicted with sleeplessness; and my
doctor said I wtiuld not live to see my
thirtieth year. ' 'While almost giving
up in despair your Paine's Celery
Compound was recommended to Me.
I .bought a bottle and used it, and to
my surprise it gave me'natural sleep
and rept. After using six bottles I
vzde,e.rittrely cured.My 'wife. alkens-
ed your antOicine. for insomnia„ and
before'she used One bottle was entire-
ly cured,"
. Mr. Sas. Wilson, a, prominent Goder-
icb druggist says'; "I know Mr. Beck
intimately, and can vouch for what
he says about Paine's Celery Com-
pound."
MORE ELECTION FRAUDS.
The disgraceful disclosure made in
connection with the investigation now
being conducted by the courts of Mon-
treal into the irregularities during
the recent bye -elections in St. James
division of that city, should cause all
Canadians of liberty -loving instincts
to pause and consider how formidable
has become the ulcer of corruption. in
this land. Simultaneously justice has
been invoked in Montreal and London,
Ontario, to punish professional elec-
tion thugs. In each case the criminals
were working in the interests of Lib-
eral candidates. At London one of
the parties involved pleaded guilty
and was sent to prisou for six months.
In Montreal witnesses,, who knew of.
the crimes commikted there, were paid
to leave the couutiy by A. E. Brunct,
a nephew- • and acredited agent of
Joseph Brunet, M. P., the merubee
now representing St. Jarfuls' division
in the House of ,Comrnons. The for-
mer is under errest, and the evidence
of reliable witnesses goes to show that
the.prisoner offered money to induce
young men to perjure. themselves, im-
personate voters, and commit- other
crimes. A. E. Brunet also provided
the funds to enable Epheem Lefebvre,
a law student, who refused to be
bribed, but who. would have given
dangerons evidence, to mke ajour-
ney to the United States', As a result
of this well organized but disastrons
plot, J. G, H. Bergeron, the unsuccess-
ful Conserve tive (-and iditte, was credit-
ed with having received four votes in
one polling district, while twenty-
four witnesses, examined in court,
testified to having eftet their billow
for that gentleman.

the West 'Huron election frauds are re-
called, whereby the Liberal Govern

ed that no wrong had been committed,
although overwhelming evidence was
offered to the contrary. and the guilty
Parties, sorne of whom were self-con-
fessed criminals, were allowed to go
free. The tampering with college
students in Montreal by Mr. Brunet, is
the" 'natural sequence to Liberal en-
courageueent of machine methods:.
Speaking at Napanee, Sir Richard
Cartwright was reported in his own
paper to have said : "He knew there
was a large number of men in the
county who wanted to be bought -He
new that because he had bought them
twice when he was an unrepentant
sinner.".
And Sir Wilfrid, himself has not
been backward in frankly admitting
his weakness towards doubtful elec-
tion methods. At a dinner given by
the National. Club, he had this to
say: "I would have you rely main-
ly on the justice of youi. cause, yet, I
have learned by experience that we
must not forget human devices that
are so essential to victory."
In the' face of such encouraaement
by men to whom. Canada loam for
good government, can it be wondered
that scandals such as have been re-
vealed in. Montreal exist?
