as from ice during a high tide, and they censure both the Dominion and Local CGrovernment inspectors for accepting such a railway bridge, situated as it is in a tide-

way.

The jury éxonerate the trackmen of the section pf the séad\whgre ,tbe aécident ocurred, as they had been taken off that section to do duty elsewhere by the orders the superintendent and had not an opportunity of examining the bridge before the ergine passed over it.

The jury agree that the signal of danger made by Isaac Cormier was insufficient and given too late to prevent the accident.

The jury find also that the dangerous condition of the bridge was known to Xavier Cormier, Charles Landry, Osair Dugas and others, residing in the vicinity on the morning of the day of the accident, but for reasons best known to themselves they failed to report the condition of the bridge to the Caraquet station, the direction from which the train was to come, a distance of about two and one-half mile.

NASAL BALM

TorrennaM, Ont., May 3rd, 1887.

I have been troubled with nasal catarih for the last five years. Seeing Nasal Balm ad- vertised I procured a bottle, and although I have only used part of it, 1 do not hesitate to pronounce it the best remedy in the world for that loathsome disease, Catarrh. Itis easy and pleasant to use, soothing and healing in its action, instant in giving relief, removes and changes the poisonous secretions to a healthy state, stops the droppings from the head into the throat, and removes all the symptoms of Catarrh and Cold in the Head. In fact, if the directions are faithfully followed, nothing but a sure and permanent cure can be the

result. Yours truly, JNO. 8S. GEORGE, Baker and Confectioner. Sept. 23—wky

The treatment of many thousands of cases of those chronic weaknesses and distressing ailments peculiar to females, at the Invelids’ Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., has afforded a vast experience in nicely adapt- ing and thoroughly testing remedies for t cure of woman’s peculiar maladies.

Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is the outgrowth, or result, of this great and valuable experience. Thousands of testimo- nials, received from patients and from physi- cians who have tested it in the more aggra- vated and obstinate cases which had baited their skill, prove it to be the most wonderful remedy ever devised for the relief and cure of suffering women. It is not recommended asa “ oure-all,”’ but as a most perfect Specific for woman’s peculiar ailments.

As a powerful, invigorating tonic, it imparts stre to the whole gystem, and to the womb and its appen in particular. For overworked, “worn-out,”

‘run-down,” debilitated teachers, milliners, dressmakers, seamstresses, “shop-girls,’’ house- keepers, nursing mothers, and feeble women gouseesy. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription 8 the greatest earthly boon, being unequaled as an appetizing cordial and restorative tonic.

As a soothing and strengthening nervine, *Favcrite Prescription” is une- — and is invaluable in allaying and gub-

uing nervous excitability, irritability, ex- haustion, prostration, hysteria, spasms and other distressing, nervous symptoms com- monly attendant upon functional and organic disease of the womb. It induces refresbing sleep and relieves mental anxiety and de- spondency.

Dr. Pierce’s Faverite Prescription is a legitimate medicine, carefully compounded by en ex need and skillful physician, and adap to woman's delicate orgenization. It is purely vegetable in its composition and rfectly harmless in its effects in any condition of the system. For morning sickness, or nausea, from whatever cause arising. weak stomach, indigestion, :iys- epee and kindred symptoms, its use, in snail

oses, will prove very beneficial.

“Favorite Prescription” is a posi« tive cure for the most. complicated and ob- stinate cases of leucorrhea, excessive flowing, painful menstruation, unnatural suppressions, prolapsus, or fallirg of the womb, weak back,

“female weakness,” anteversion, retroversion, bearing-down sensations, chronic congestion, inflammation and ulceration of the womb, in- flammation, pain and tenderness in ovaries, accompanied with “ internal heat.”

As a regulator and promoter of func. tional action, at that critical period of change from girl to womanhood, * Favorite Pre- scription” is a perfectly safe remedial agent, and can produce only good results. Ii ig

ually efficacious and valuable in its effecta when taken for those disorders and derange- ments incident to that later and most critica] period, known as “* The Change of Life.”

* Favorite Prescription,” when taken in connection with the use of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, and small laxative doses of Dr. Pierce’s renpave Pellets (Little Liver Pills), cures Liver, Kidney and Bladder diseases. Their combined use also removes blood taints, and abolishes cancerous and scrofulous humors from the system.

* Favorite ne » is the only medicine for women, sold by druggists, under & positive guarantee, from the manu- facturers, that it will give satisfaction in every case, or money wil! be refunded. This guaran- tee been princed on the bottle-wrapper, and faithfully carried out for many years,
