An Interesting case.
The came of Hunt vs.Town of Palmer-
ston, heard at the Guelph assizes, is
.trot without interest here: At a meeting
in March of the pesent year, Palmerston
pssed a resolution agreeing to give
ear to maintain a public library,
on condition that Andrew Carnegie give
*MO to put up a building, which he
agreed to do. The council also agreed
to purchase a site for the public library.
On the lt'th of June a deputation from
the free library board waited upon the
,council crd asked thein to snake an
appropriation of 813:10 for the purpose of
buying a site. The council gave the
*at, second and third readings to a
bylaw agreeing to levy, a rate on the
taxable property of the town, eufcient
to rales 8050 for the purchase of a bite.
The plaintiff, Hunt, then got out an
interim injunction, restraining the town
from giving effect to the bylaw to pur-
chase a site or going into trey further
agreen.ut with Carnegie until the trial
Or the action; the plaintiff's reason for
:asking for the injunction being that the
public Library had been formed under
ort tiVo of the Public Libraries Act,
and plaintiffs contend that there must
be • submission of the question to the
ratepayers of the municipality before
the council is justified in making the
((taut. The order granting the injunc-
tion was appealed to the divisional
,court, which has decided ill favor of
the corporation, and the aotiotl (tried
.before Boyd, C., suhjact to the result
of this motion) dismissed. One half
she costs to be paid by plaintiff to de-
deadants.
samples of Choles Gram.
/fr. Wm. Saundere, director of the
lesoadian experimental fume, writes
Tim STANDARD as follows:
"By instruction of the Canadian
minister of agriculture another diatri-
.bation will be made this .Season of
samples of the most productive aotts of
:grain to Canadian farmers for the
Improvement of seed. filo stock for
•dlstribution is of the very best and hem
been secured by the director of the
experimental farms from the excellent
,grope recently had in the Canadian
northwest. The distribution this spring
NMI consist of samples of oats, Spring
wheat, barley, Inoian tarn and put-
tees. The quantities of oats, wheat and
barley to be gent this year will be
suMo1ent to sow one -twentieth of an
sore. The samplei of Indian corn and
.potatoes will weigh three pounds ea
heretofore. Every farmer may apply,
.but only one sample call be sent to each
applicant, hence if an iudit idual re-
-selves a sample of oats lie cannot also
receive one of wheat, barley or pota-
toes, and applications for more than
o11e simple for one household cannotbe
entertained. These temples will be
eent.free of charge through the metl.
"Applicatiotte should be addressed to
the director of experimental fauns,
Ottawa, and may be sent in any time
before the let of March, after which
the lista will be closed, an that all the
samples asked for may be sent out in
good time for sowing. Parties writing
should mention the sort or variety
they would prefer, and should the
available stock of the kind asked for be
exhausted, some other good Bort will be
sent in its place,"

Debility of system causes neural-
gia, and whatever tends to produce
cnfeeblements induces it. This affec-
tion is undeniably due to lack of
vitality, and its very existence is
evidence of deficient strength.
Remedial measures should there-
fore be directed to improve the whole
system, for when strength returns to
the system, the neuralgic condition
of the nerves will disappear.
This now is supplied by Sr. JAMES
WAFERS; they seldom fail to relieve;
their effect is a general building up
of the system.
ST. JAMES WAFERS help stomach,
digest food and send the nutriment
through the blood, and this is the
honest way to get health and strength,
the kind that lasts, develops and
breeds the energy which accom-
plishes much,
"St. James W afars Error varies.
They are a remedy "without
peer, without a rival." Di alt
cases, of neuralgia they have pro.
vet 'noble and true ally."

Holmes vs. Town of Goderich.
This case was argued in the divieional
court in Toront, before Falcoubridge,
C.J., and Street, J. Judgment (C.) on
appeal from judgment of Robertson, J.,
at trial dietnissing the action. This
was brought by plaintiff, on behalf of
himself and all ratepayers of the Town
of Goderich, to restrain the defendant
corporation, its mayor and treasurer,
and the Bank of Montreal, from dis-
oountint, or in any way dealing with
a mote or the proceeds thereof, made
to the Bank of Montreal to provide
funds to pay into the Supreme Court of
Canada 12000 security on an appeal
taken by the town from a judgment of
the Court of Appeal in another action,
in which the present plaintiff was plain-
tiff, and the town de andante. During
the course of the present action the
money was paid lute the supreme court,
which heard the appeal, and allowed it
with costs, whereupon the 82004) secur-
ity was taken out and repaid to the
Back of Montreal. The only question
in this Nivea!, was, therefore, one of
costs. Held, that the court was bound
to hear and decide the merits of the
appeal (Fleming v. City of Toronto, 19
A.R. 818), and that the plaintiff's per-
sonal interest was no bar to his bring-
ing the action. Held, on the merits,
that the town had no power to procure
the loan, for two reasons; First, be-
cause, lookuig at sub -section 4of section
485 of the Municipal Act (11.8.0, eh.
228), it was clear that, in order to ascer-
tain tke amount which a municipality
may borrow for current expenses under
that section, the amount of taxes col-
lected for school purpose,' in the pie-
lf kelt year must bo deducted from ,the
whole stun collected, and BO p.c, of the
d.Q ro ce only borrowed. Siut:c the
