That's the condition de many sufferers

Great difficulty is experienced inn clear,

No wonder catarrh causes headache,
impairs the taste, smell and hearing,
pollutes the breath, deranges the stolri-

To cure catarrh, treatment must be
constitutional—alterative and tonic.

PRESBYTERY OF MAITLAND
The Presbytery of Maitlaud met iu
Winahatn, on Tuesday, lath December
with RPV. D. Peri ie, Moderator pro tem
in the chair. The financial report was
read and showed the finances of the
Presbytery to be in good condition.
It was agreed that the assessment of
congregations for the ensuing caleudar
year be as the rate of 7c. per family, for
the Presbytery Fund, and at the tate of
se cent per member for the Synod Fund.
Owing to the storm that prevailed it
was decided to defer action with regard
to the resignation of the Elders of Moles-
worth till the next regular meeting in
March. No action was taken regarding
tile nomination of a professor to succeed
Principal Pollock, in the chair of Prac-
tical Theology, and Church History in
Halifax College.
On consideration of the remit from the
General Assembly's Commission re the
relation of Queen's University to the
Church it was decided to take no action.
A motion was passed approving of the
recommendation of the Augumoutation
Committee that the minium stipend in
augumentated charges be increased fifty
dollars owing to the increased cost of
living.
Rev. D. Perrie was elected Moderator
of Presbytery for 1904.
The following charges are entitled to
send Commissioners to the General As-
sembly to meet in St. John's, N. B:—
Ministers: McIntosh, and Belmore;
Knox Church, Ripley, and Bervie;
Molesworth; Dunganuon, and Port
Albert. Elders: Lucknow; Kincardine;
Pine River; and Whitechurch, and
Langside.
It was agreed that the next regular
meeting take place in Wingham, on
Tuesday, Mar. lat at 10 A. M.

Transport Line steamer Menominee,
from London for New York, which
put into Falmouth yesterday, re-
ports that site encountered heavy
gales during the voyage across, and
that when 560 miles west of the
Sicily Islands, Dec. 7, she had a
terrible experience. Huge waves
broke over the vessel, one wave
smashing the rudder head and rend-
ering the ship totally unmanageable.
After the storm had somewhat
abated the crew endeavored to make
temporary repairs, but the Menomi-
nee drifted at the mercy of the sea
for several days, it being impossible
to steer her, and she was driven back
within 560 miles of the Sicily Is-
lands. Temporary repairs were even-
tually eiiected and Capt. Lucas de-
cided to return to the nearest port.
It is reported that the passengers
are all well.

and if help can at once be given, a pro-
tnisin°' life can be saved. 'Three years
ago the mother died of consumption.
Since that time it has been my painful
duty to bury two of the sons with the
same disease. Now Annie, aged about
seventeen, and a boy of fourteen, are all
that remain of the family. The poor
girl has been in Muskoka, boarding at a
private house, waiting to be admitted.
She returned home last week, and within
twenty-four hours of hor return her
father dropped dead in his buggy while

Live Stook Markets.
Toronto, Dec. 22—Business was quiet
at the Western Cattle Market to -day.
Comparatively little stock was on hand
before 11000, most of the offerings arriv-
ing late. The total receipts for the day
were 70 cars, including 727 cattle, 600
sheep, 1,000 hogs and 16 calves. No
export cattle were on sale. Feeders and
stockers were also on the market. The
bulk of the trade was done in butchers,
for which there was a fair demand.
Enough stock was offered to satisfy all
inquiries.

THERE IS
MERIT IN
OUR CLOTHING
Merit that briligs a second order
on the strength of the first. What
we do and the way we do it is our
strongest argument. We aro ty-
ing to increase our business by giv-
ing all We can and taking as little
as possible.
And we'll succeed, of course. We
have a full supilly of everything•
that pertains to the making of
Snits.
And our work costs as
little as any itt the country.
