Of The Out And Out, Independent Kind People who really want a sturdily independent but frankly liberal news- paper, will appreciate Mr, Dougall's paper, the "Montreal Weekly Wit- ness." While some papers are notori- ously and obviously at the beck and call of predatory ,interests, there are others that have maintained their independence and notably that great national paper, the "Montreal Weekly Witness." is a striking example. It has never been "under the thumb" of any person, or party, or clique. It has never grovelled. It has never touted. It has never pandered. The "Witness" is ite unique self, loved by its friends, hated by Its energies. Founded some sixtyeight years ago by the late John Dongall, the "Wit- ness" has always been, and the "Week- ly Witness" still continues •to be, ex- clusively owned and edited by Dou- galls. During the past three generations it has conscientiously, devotedly and very efficiently, served its country in many ways, notably in its campaigns for Temperance, Righteousness, Religious Liberty, Education, and Lower Tariffs, looking towards lower cost and higher plane of living, If Canada is not yet enjoying to the full the benefits of these things, it is far ahead of many other countries in most of them, and this is due in no small measure to the stand, or, more correctly, the splendid campaigns of the "Witness" whenever opportunity afforded. The welfare of the Canadian farmer in particular bas always been considered of prime im- portance by the E iitor of the "Wit- ness," and the "Witness" has done yeoman service td agriculture. Generations of our finest Canadian families have literally been "brought up on the 'Witness', " as many of the most eminent Canadians will testify, and they continue its devoted admir- ere. • Besides the moral and political a-- pecte of this great newspaper, it has attractive features embracing all the interests of the family and a splendid Farm and Poultry Department, Its short and serial stories are strong and fresh, and they alone are worth sever- al times the price -one dollar a year, To bona fide New Subscribers men - Coning the names of this paper, one trial year way be had for only 05 cents. The publishers are, as always, John Dougall & Son; "Witness" Office, Montreal. The "Weekly Witness" has now no connection with any daily newspaper and is the healthier for it, CASTOR I A For Infants and Children.
