Catarrh is the short route to .con- sumption, and the importance of early and jiicious treatment of ca- tarrh, whetoeo located in the head, throat or bronchial tubes, cannot be too strongly emphasized. The list of catarrh cures is as long as the moral law and the forms in which they are administered, numer- m- ous and confusing, from sprays, halers, washes, ointments, and salves to powders, liquids and tablets. The tablet form is undoubtedly the most convenient and most effective, but with nearly all advertised catarrh remedies, it it alnost entirely a mat- ter of guess work as to what you are taking into your system, as the pro- pristors, while making all sorts of claims as to what their medicines will do, always keep it a close secret as to what they are. The success and popularity of the new catarrh cure, Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, is largely because it not only cures eatarrh, But because catarrh suf- feregs who used these tablets know what they are taking into their sys- tems. Stuart's Catairh Tablets being composed of red gum, blood root and imilar valuable and antiseptic 1n- and are pleasant to the taste and being dissolved in the mouth they take immediate effect upon the y the throat, natal respiratory tract. Catarrh mucous lining of passages and whole that Stuart's The cures Tablets have accomplished in old chronic cases of catarrh are little chort of remarkable, and the advan tage of knowi what you are put ting into your stomach is of para- mount importance when it is remem hered that the cocaine or morphine habit has been frequently contracted as the result of using se ret catarrh remedies. ' Stuart's Catarrh Tablets meet with cordial approval from physicians, be- cause their antiseptic chaiater render them perfectly safe for the general public to use and their composition makes them a common cure for all forms of catarrhal troubles. All druggists sell them at 50c. full sized packages.

J. T. Wilson was re-elected president, amid great en- thusiasm,. his splendid work for the organization on the C.P.R., last sum- mer, having been of incalculable bene- fit to the craft the continent over. H. B. Lowe, of this, city, was re-elected first vice-president; J. W. Davenport, North Carolina, second vice-president; W. W. Haygood, third Mr. Lowe -i§, ex-officio, chairman of executive board, to which J. C. Lam- bert, Texas, was re-elected secretarv, S. BE. Hawes, Georgia; J. S. East- man. Vermont, and Robert Ferguson, Port Arthur, Ont., being the other members, , Two new offices were created, viz., secretary-treasurer and editor, to take charge, respectively, of the financial and eaqitorial departments. C. Boyle, late of Merrickville, was elected secre- tary-treasurer, and 0. J. Mulkie, edi- tor. / The ,name of the order from B. of R.

In the insurance department the age limit was reduced from fifty-five to forty-five years. The convention au- thorized the formation of a woman's auxiliary, following the example of the other railwav orders, which have found the auxiliary, composed, as they are, of the wives and other fe mald relatives bi the employees, a very valuable help to their organiza- tion. Mrs. Alice Mulkie was elected presi- dent of the auxiliary, which the wo- men present very gguickly organized; Miss Ray) Montreal, seeretary-treasur- er; Mrs. H. Scott, Parkbeg, N.W.T.. and Mrs. W.

From the 1.C.R., Messrs, Mur- ray, McGillivray and Halle were a strong team. From G.T.R. Messrs. Stout, Gibb and Ranclos, and from C.P.R., Messrs. Lister, N.B., Ferguson and Wosslyn, of Ontario, Scott, of N.W.T., main line, and Clapp, Mec: Leod, of Crow's. Nest, with Robert son, of British Columbia, made up a good delegation of C.P.R. men. The convention was most har monious and business-like and the work of the officers for the vear most satisfactory. The increasing demand on the president's time, from committees desirous. of securing agreements with their roads, similar to that secured by the C.P.R. employees, as well as the steady increase in the membership, made the creation of new offices ab- solutely necessary. The enthusiasm with which the nomination of Presi dent Wilson was made by First Vice president Lowe, seconded by Mr. Fer cuson, was most marked. The convention voted: to, meet dgain in St. Louls"in 1904 Ax will be seen from the above partial list of ofhicers, the Canadians were most bountifully dealt with."

STOCK THAT PAYS 27 PER -- CENT IN 13 MONTHS. One Hundred Per Cent. Advance by New Year's Day--Brilliant Success of Eastern Consolidat- ed Oil Company. In these days of investments on pa- per it is with comfort and satisfac- tion that one contemplates an. honest and straightforward investment pro- position as the Eastern Consolidated Oil company. Vouched for by leading business men of Connecticut, fathered by fiscal agents of national reputation and backed by large and rich oil proper- ties. The Eastern Consolidated presents an absolutely safe investment, and at the same time an exceedingly profit- able one. The company has over 21,000 acres of rich oil lands. It has morg; proven oil land van any half dozen oil com- panies whose stock is now on the market. It has 109 producing oil wells, more than any three companies that we know anything about. It sells for cash to the Standard Oil company thousands of barrels of high-grade illuminating oil every month. From its Kern River wells it also produces vast quantities of fuel oil, The stock sells now for fifty cents a share, and those who buy at once will have the absolute certainty of seeing their holdings doubled in value before January 1st. Extraordinary Opportunity. The statement that $500 invested in Eastern Consolidated 0il stock now will actually double within three weeks seems on the surface to be marvellous, but is a logical outcome of the growth of the company and the situation. Moreover, 'when during this same timo the production of oil will be increased by 25,000 barrels a month the in- crease in price is only natural. The stock has been selling for fifty cents a share now for several months, and the fifty cent- allotment is almost exhausted. The enormous increase in production of oil, the phenomenal de- mand for oil for fuel, which has sent the price up twice within the last three weeks, all *make it inevitable that the price of the stock should go to par. Every dollar put in now will actually double in value. Understand this is not a condition which will last. Tn a short time it will be impossible to buy any of the stock at this price, and while un- doubtedly the Eastern Consolidated Oil company will continue to be a rich dividend-paying investment, it is clearly improbable that it will ever again offer such an opportunity as this. Enormous Production. From 107 oil wells, located on eighteen farms in Wood, Mercer and Van, Wert counties in Ohio, this com- pany is selling regularly for cash thousands of barrels of oil every month, In all the wells put down hy the Eastern Consolidated in Ohio hot one has failed. In Kern River, California, the com- pany owns outricht a tract in the very centre of the richest district. Three new wells have come here with- in a short time and are producing over 25,000 barrels of oil a month. Five more wells are drilling, with room for many more. This tract alone is undoubtedly capable of' producing 100,000 barrels of .0il monthly, and with the two new pipe lines to San Francisco, now in the course of con- struction, at a cost of 86,000,000, and with the Standard Oil Company's big vefineries, there will be a demand for every' barrel. . Conservative Management. The of the Eastern Consoli- dated companv is due to careful, con- servative business management. It has men-at---its-head -who-have the record of splendid success in handling large business enterprises, of undoubted in- tegrity and business ability.
