Mz. Eprror.--It isa well known fact that the majority of people are inclined to look upon a cold in the head as a matter of little importance-- involving at the most only temporary inconvenience. No more disastrous mistake was ever made, The neglect- ed 'eold in the head is the source of the datarrhal affections with which about seven-tenths of the people of this country are afflicted, and catarrh itself is too often the preliminary stage$ of consutnption and death, The symptoms of catarrh are manifold, but among them may be mentioned, offen- sive breath ; dull, oppressive headache; offensive droppings from the nostrils into the throat and bronchial tubes ; deafness or partial deafness ; constant hawking and spitting ; weak and wat- ery eyes ; a hacking icough and feeling of general debility ; ringing in the ears and frequent dizziness. These are but a few of the more general symptoms, and those who oxperience them should lose no time in applying a remedy--delays are proverbally dang- erous, and in the ease of this too pre- valent disease may lend to death, We offer Nasal Balm to the public as a POSITIVE CURE for cold in the head and for catarrh in all its forms and stages. Nasal Balm has tested: in, thous asd of cases, and the in not require a douehe, or any rani oftn trial instrument to apply it. Giveita and be convinced of its great efficacy.

Mr. Mowat and his supporters in the Legislature delight in instituting comparisons between the record and management of the Ontario and Do- minion Governments. But they wisely refrain from pursuing this course when dealing with the annual financial statements of the respective Govern- ments. Such a comparison would not be to the advantage of the Ontario Ministry. As ameans of disseminating infor mation the annual report of the Do minion Auditor-General is infinitely superior to the yellow-covered return labelled "Public Accounts of the Pro vince of Ontario' The former is a clear statement of the national ex: penditare and indebtedness, which even a schoolboy can understand.
