Plebiscite On Liquor Question In Near Future, Says Pre- mier.

(Canadian Press) HALIFAX, Dec. lt-Sales of the Nova scotia Liquor Commission for this year decreased by approxim- ately $1,200,000 from last year's in- take, according to a statement 1s- }sued today by Premier Gordon B. iI-Iarrington. Gross sales amounted ‘to $3,765,000 as against $4,956,000 in the previous year, and the net aur- plus fell to $492,700 from $729,900. The surplus had been estimated as $630,000, so that the return to the Provincial Treasury is about $137,000 below the estimate.

The Premier's statement dispell- ed any idea. that the question of

Government sale might be submit- ted to the people soon again. "The question of the sale and use of al- coholic beverages is of course a highly controversial one," it said.

Piles _0_t_I_0uick

No Solves-No Cutting

Thousands who have itching, bleeding or protruding piles have not yet learned that quick and last. lng relief can only be accomplished with an internal medicine. Neither selves nor suppositories remove the cause.

Bad circulation of blood in the lower bowel causes plies. The hem. orrholdal veins are flabby, the bow- el walls weak-the parts almost dead. To get rid of Piles an inter- nal medicine muat be used to sti- mulate the circulation, drive out the thick impure blrvd, heal and rc- swre the nﬂectet parts.

Dr. J. S. Laonhardt, after years of study, found a real internal Pile remedy. He called his discovery HEM-ROID, and prescribed itfor 1000 patients with success in over 900 cues, and than decided every Pile sufferer, no matter how stub- born their case, might try his pres- cription with a money back guar- untee.

HEM-ROID tablets have such l wonderful record of success in thil citythat Hughes Drug 00., Ltd, and all good druggiets invite you to try HEM-ROID and guarantee money refunded if it. does not end your

Islands Of The Black Pearls

At. the apex of prosperity.‘ the sAliglC article most, sougm, by thﬁ woJd of fashion was me black pearl. oi which the finest speci- mens came from the Paumotu Archipelago. Twenty

fathoms deep in the south Pacific, brown skinned dl- vers searched amid the eoral for the black-Upped shells that house the great prize.

Annually there was a “pearly rush" from Papeete to the hidden‘ atolls whence the mother of pearl sheila for distant button factories offered n. certain income, while a chance lucky find of e. big black pearl means fabulous wealth. M11- lionaire yachtmen charted their course to the sun kissed atolls. fimt famlliarized by bride's pendﬂﬂi. 01' black pearl earrings.

Ten years ago one could learn of the Paumotu Is1ands~lmown also

there are a dozen books which tell of their palms, pearls and soft trade breezes.

The Paumotu, or Tuamotu Archi- pelago, is situated about 4500 miles southwest of Panama. It compri- ses about 100 islands and islets, in total area 330 square miles, scatter- ed over a thousand miles of ocean expanse. The population ll var- iotisly estimated from 3500 to b000, chieﬂy Polyneslana, but in the black pearl days including also nu- meroua Europeans. Americans and Asiatics.

The islands were discovered in 1601 by the Spanish navigator Pe- dm Fernandez Quiroe, and after centuries of indeterminate status, were occupied by France in the middle of the 19th century, and annexed in i881. They are admin- istered with other French possess- ions in the Eastern Pacific, as a dependency, with administrative headquarters at Pspeeie, Tahiti. '

As the valuabls black pearls are rarely discovered, the more certain. income depends on CUYIIXTIBTCluL lots of small pearls and cargoes of mo- ther-of-peari shell. Pro-nerlty, therefore, depend; to I. consldemblt extent upon the status of the but~ tun trade.
