POSTAL FACILITIES-

The annual report of the post of-

fice department of the United States quotes stat-ist-ics of postal facilities ‘ in many countries. In the proportion of the number of post oflices to population two British colonies occupy the first place in the world,New Zealand being first and Carada second. .New Zea- lland has one post otlice for every 5l0inhabitants,Canada one for every 53( people, New South Wales one for every 647, Switzerland one for every 8.39 and the United States one for ‘every S97. ' It ought to be gratifying to Cana- _dians to know that we hold so ad- l vanced a position, and that successive ,governments have done so much to I bring our postal system fully _abreast _ lof what the world is doing in that _1 line. New that we have the post of- ltice brought pretty close to the doors r iof the people in their homes, with the further great advaiitage that a two 3 cent stamp will carry a letter across the continent and even to other `_British possessions in the distant (corners ot' the world, we may well

,congratulate ourselves. Canada is far iahead of Australia in this latter 7 particular and well to the front ” among the most progressive countries of the world in regard to postal mat- ters generally. "

Prince Edward Island is an ex-

ception to the rule among the Cana- dian provinces, owing to the natural difficulties of communicating with the mainland in winter, and a natural slowness of the people of Charlotte- ' town in accepting the oH'ered boon of the free delivery system.

Siu.-The following threatening lct-

ter was received by the iindersighed on account of being one of the parties mentioned therein and being suspected of helping to extirpate the evil of in- tempertnce and put a stop to the diabolical tiatllc carried on in the only rum den in this community. The Bay boys hid no hand in the letter, it was written by.or by orders ot the pro. prietor of said den. The nice trick spoken of was the burning of two large stacks oi hay belonging to Mr. William Webster.

Dreadful Suffering by a New- market Woman.

The Bones ln the Nose Affected- _ Face Would Swell Until Her Eyes Were Closed- I-low Believed. _ NENVMARKET, ONT. -“ I have had A

good opportunity ot noting the great medicinal powers of Hoo_d’e Sarbaparillu. My Wife has been a sufferer from catarrh for the past tour years, and the disease had gone so fanthat the bones of the nose had become affected and particles had come away through an opening in the left side. Her eyesight ivan also affected to i the extent that for nearly a year she was unable to read for moi-ethan five minutes at u time. She suffered

Severe Pains ln the Head and at times was almost distracted. She

y was treated by four dilferent doctors, one of whom was a. specialist. They all said

they could not do anything for her, as the

1 disease had gone too far. Her nose would l swell about every three days until her ' eyes would almost be closed. Then it ` would break through and the swelling would subside fora day or two. About l Christmas she comma-nced~tal1ing Hood’s I Sarsaparilla, and since that time has _ steadily improved. She has not been troubled with any strolling since, and the sore on the side ol the nose hae all healed. She is on the road to a complete cure. I cannot speak too highly oi' kiooci’s Saree- parilla, und I cheerfully reconiriiend it to any person who is r_uffci:§."__~,'; with ca~‘.-ari°h.” W. ll. Fi'i.»"-.sIF.n. N. B.
