Chase's Nerve Food Restores and Revitalizes the Nerve Celis. People h o sufer from Nervous Depression and Exhaustion frequently look healthy and strong. They alone know the thousand dis- tressing symptoms which make their lives miserable. The lack of nerve force resuits in a slow and sluggish action of the heart, impaired diges- tion, headache, despondency, and a fear to venture, loss of energy, sleeplessneas, incapa- city for mental labor or business. With thes symptoms there is usually melancholy and fear of death, which tends to increase nervousness, but there is every reason to bc hopeful if the right treatment is used. Dr. Chases Nerve Food contains 2,11 the nutri- tion rcquired to create new brain and nerve tissue. It imparts to the nervous systema that life-giving jýrinciple whieb sends a tbrill of new strengtb and vigor tbrougb the system. Dr. A. W. Chases Nerve Food will cure by the building-up process, wbich enables the body to laisgh at disease and wealness. Face cut and fac-simile signature of Dr. A. W. Chase on ecery box of the genuine.

H. is endeti. There was intense anxiety over the suatter on the part of the travelling public audtheir frieads. One gentleman tolti us that s0 strong was the feeling in Toronto that wbile long. passenger trains ou the C. P. R. were leaving tlie Union Station loadeti, tlie G. T. R. trains were comparatîvely empty. Ia several towns public meet- ings were held to discuss the situation and stroag resolutions bave heen pass- eti. In Lindsay hast week Victoria County's Grand Jury ia. its presenti- ment referred to the trouble anstiex- pressed a hope for a speedy settiement for "the continuance of tbe strike will bce dangerous to the travelling public." Replving to tlic presentment, Judge Harding said :-"Surely tha G. T. R. shoulti bave some cousideration for the safety of tise public, if they bave not any for ýhe safety of their owni property. It is tu lic bupeti thaf they will give sncb wages as will secure the loyal sup- port of their employees. There is no doubt that the travelling public, as wcll as the property of the railway, are in great danger." The truthfulaesscf the foregoing -apprehension was verifleti Sunday morning wbea dastardly work near Kingston nearly cost twelve pas- sengers and anutnber of train hiantis their lives. Some malielous person turned a switcli causing the derailment and wreck of an engine anti passenger coachi, A dispatch says : "The Grand Trunk railway people say the wreck is the work of a person or persons exper- lencet inl the switcli business, while friends of the trackmen say it-may hav e been tlie work of enthusiastic sympath- izers, over wbom tbey have no control, or are not responsible for. ilat a ligbt been on tlie turneti switch the engine driver would bave'seen the danger signal anti stoppeti short. Tbe damage to the engine anti coach is consider- able." To the great credit of the sfnik- ing trackmen, their beliavior turing the trouble lias on the whole been com- mendible. We cannotsece exactly wby public sympathy lias been almost uni versally on the ýside of the strikers. As we un- tierstandth le situation, the trackmen accepteti the positions tliey have lielti on the ternis ,and conditions ,pecifieti by thse company. If tbey became dissatis- fieti with their pay, tbey bati the pnivil- ege of leaving the company 's employ anti seekîug work elsewhere. Again, we cannot say that tbey were under- paiti in the way that unskillcd labor le paiti. We may misintige their necessary qualifications, but if tbey da not require skill anti-intelligence superior to thse ordîuary farm banti, wbicb we under- stand they do not, then we consider that a dollar a day ail the year round la quite a liberal remunerafion as Ont- ario farmers are paying. WTe have neyer seen gooti reason yet for sympafli- izing witb stikers, especially wben they are allowed the option of leaving their position when tbey are, or wben tbey consitier tbey are, mnot sufficiently recompenseti for services or justly treat ed. Sympathy usuaily '.-es against great corporations, anti no doubt quite correctiy la some instances, but often not so correctly. Dr. Talmage bas a splendid sermon on "The Mission of Art." Doa't miss reading it on inside dage. At the last meeting Of the Counties' Council the popular Warden, J. 'H. Devitt, Esq., gave the members, a clice of tliree ways of entertaining tliem-au excurs-ion to either Rocliester or Niagara, a supper, or havirig a pic- ture of the counceil in a botiy taken. The latter was chosen.
