A remedy which will eure all kinds of Piles can be depended upon to cure many other things. Wade's Ointment has been so thoroughly tested that it can be guaranteed to eure Feasma {Salt Rheum), Cold, Sores, Burns, Blotches; Sare Feet, Dandrufi, and all scaly or itching eruptions of the skin, In big boxes, 25c., at Wade's Ihrug Store. P. A. Mdbougakl, Winnipeg. has been appointed chairman of the board {of conciliation on the C.P.R. labor | dispute. Tired nerves, with that "no ambi- tion" feeling that is commonly felt in spring or early summer, ean be easily and quickly altered by takine what.is known to druggists everywhere as Dr. Shoop's Restorative. One will abso- lutely note a changed feeling within forty-eight hours after beginbhing to take the Restorative. The bowels get sluggish in the winter-time, the eircu- Intion often slows up, the Kidneys are inactive, and even the Heart in many cases grows decidedly weaker. Dr. Shoop"s Restorative is recognized ev] ervwhere as a genuine tonit to these vital organs. Jt builds up and strengthens the worn-out weakened negves; it sharpens the failing appe- tite, and universally aids ' digestion. It always quickly brings remewed strength, life, vigor, and ambition. Try it and be eonvinced. Sold by all dealers F. B. Deacon, a well-known promat- er of Stratiord, was arrester] on: a charge of stealing a promissory note for $1,000.

It is beginning to be understood. however, that the great hurry to go into the power business bv the gov ernment and the eity of Toronto au thorities is not quite as urgent as it was a few weeks ago, although the pretense is still kept up, and they are marking time by employing "experts" to travel in distant coyntries F get further information as to "high ten- sion currents." It would be interest- ing to know how much the city of To- ronto and the Ontario government have already spent in these "'expert" reports and valuations, and something as to the variety of information and estimates they have socured. It is well known that estimates for the pro- posed city plant have varied to the { twa, or three million del Torouto Globe. It is no wonder leading conserva- tives are inning to protest agsin the reckless slandering of public men, which is one of the conspicuous fea t of the campaign in Ontario. The ing is so conspicuous as to com- romise the comservative party.

Ihe whole of thewecord of that "last aw- ful week," for instance, might have been left unwritten. As a matter of fact the Whitney government has been placed in a posi tion which nobody but mea of strong character and unusual zeal in the public interest could be expected to occupy with safety, The possession of arbitrary power offers a constant temptation which few men made up of | common clay are able to resist. How | to save the democracy from its own tyranny has been one of the most per plexing problems of popular govern- ment from the beginging. The remedy implied is a strong opposition, to keep constantly on guard against ex- cesses. Experience has shown that without some such effective check the best of governments are liable to go wrong in time. A #trong opposition is a necessary part of our plan of government. Without such a check party government is - not complete, | Just as a modern express train would | not be complete without its air | brakes. | It is needless and useless for the electors to appear shocked when they fil governments to which they have given excessive power yielding to the | natural temptation to abuse it. Such | abuses the electors have a right to | expect as a matter of comrse. They have the remedy in their own hands. Some time or some way they will pay the price if they do not use it. g A DIFFERENCE IN TEMPER. Tory: Government Think 'They Have Divine Right. Toronto Star.
