Port Arthur seems to be tired of municipal government, as it has hon, and wants something new and gressive. It is suggested to the coun- cil that now holds office that it win the lasting gratitude of the people by scouring the best possible management of the public utilities--tho street rail- ways, the clectric light, gas and water pro- plants. 1t has occurred to some peo- ple that what is wanted is a commis- sion of cxperts, men who understand the 'different features -of municipal ownership, and that to it be remitted the protection and development of the city's property. Port. Arthun is pily situated. peculiarly and hap- at the head of the the grow iis Canadian navigation, and one of main outlets for tho traffic of North-West. It is bound rapidly, and its municipal cares are sure {0 be onerous. Perhaps the peo- ple are so busy with their own al- fairs that they cannot give the time that is demanded for the direction of the past; have been dilatory. They have heen unequal to the responsibilities of office. There must hate been grave defect, when there is a" longing for something experimental. to some Government by commission is be They pay men to manage the public busincss as capitalists pay men to carry on their commerce and manufactures. The commission however, for been and the Canadian everything has, tried, not) very well Special legislation will be required. Can Port Arthur secure it? : CAN'P. PLEASE EVERYONE.

Horse Distemper Prince Edward: Farmer Solemnly Declares Nerviline is a Specific. s "After fifty years' experience in rais- ing horses 1 can safely testify that no remedy gives such good results for an all-round stable liniment as Ner wline." - This opens the very earnest letter of J. J. Evanston, who lives near Wellington, P.E. "I had a very valuable horse that took distemper a month ago, and was afraid 1 was going to lose him. His throat swell- ed and hard lumps developed. His nostrils. ran and he had a terrible cough. 1 tried different remedies, but was unable' to re- lieve my horse of his pain and sul fering till 1 start- ed to use Nervi- line. I mixed a bottle of Nervi: line and sweet oil and rubbed the mixture on the throat and thest three times a day and you would scarcely helieve the woy that horse picked 'up. Nerviline cured him. I also have used Nervilipe for colic in horses and cows, and earnest- ly recommend it to every man that «s rid sing stock." For strains, sprains, swellings, col- ic, distemper, coughs and colds, no liniment will prove so efficacious in the stable as '"Nervi'ine"--it's good for man or beast, for internal or ex- ternal use. Wherever there is pain, Nerviline will cure it. Jufuse sub- stitutes. Large bottles, ~ 25c., five for ¥1, at all dealers.
