Best of All:

Cough medicines, Ayer’s Cherry Pec- toral is in greater demand than ever. No preparation for Throat and Lung Troubles is so prompt in its effects, so agreeable to the taste, and so widely known, as this. It is the family medi- cine in thousands of households,

“T have suffered for years from a bronchial trouble that, whenever I take cold or am exposed to inclement weath- er, shows itself by a very annoying tickling sensation in the throat and by difficulty in breathing. I have tried a great inany remedies, but none does so well as Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral which always gives prompt relief in returns of my old complaint.” — Ernest A. Hepler, Inspector of Public Roads, Parish Ter- re Bonne, La.

“I consider Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral a most important remedy

For Home Use.

T have tested its curative power, in my family, many times during the past thirty years, and have never known it to fail. It will relieve the most serious affections of the throat and lungs, whether in children or adults.” — Mrs, E. G. Edgerly, Council Blufts, Iowa.

“Twenty years ago I was troubled with a disease of the lungs. Doctors afforded me no relief and considered my case hopeless. I then began to use Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral, and, before I had finished one bottle, found relief. I continued to take this medicine until a cure was effected. I believe that Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral saved my life.’ — Samuel Griggs, Waukegan, Til.

**Six years ago I contracted a sev@e cold, which settled on my lungs and soon developed all the alarming symp- toms of Consumption. I had a cough, night sweats, bleeding of the lungs, pains in chest aad sides, and was so prostrated as to be confined to my bed most of the time. After trying various prescriptions, without benefit, my physician finally determined to give me Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral. I took it, and the effect was magical. I seemed to rally from the first dose of this medicine, and, after using only three bottles, am as well and sound as ever.” — Roduey Johnson, Springfield, Til.

ISLAND. THURSDAY, DECEMBER 26. 1889.

Christmas Song. In a manger in a village, Years ago the Christ was born, And the herald angels, singing, Ushered in that Christmas morn.

Now no sounds of glorious angels Falls upon the listening ear;

Only bells that call to worship, On the air ring sweet and clear.

Let us worship, let us listen, For the silent angels singing;

We can hear their still small voices Even above the wild bells ringing.

There are voices in the moonlight, There's a voice in every star; Even the little snowflakes falling Bring their message from afar,

Messages of peace and gladness, God's forgiveness unto men; Then, to-day let’s banish sadness, Christmas morn has come again. E. L. Francis, Charlottetown, Dec. 24, 1889. ee Montague.

1196 lbs. leather, 490 fowls, 120 geese, 352 turkeys, 80 ducks, 150 lbs. oatmeai, 100 lbs. buckwheat flour, 14 sheep pelts. The whole cargo cost somewhere in the vicinity of $4,000.

Shipping for the season is evidently at an end, as the river for some distance down is frezen over. About this time last year there was a similar cold snap, yet the steamer Montague ran to the Bridge on the iith and 12th of January.

The children attending ihe schools here intend holding their anual concert and en- tertainment on Monday. evening, the 30th inst. Judging from the programme this will be one of the best of its kind ever held in Montague. Professor Theakston will lead the music.

Mrs. Bessie S. Keefer will deliver her popular lecture ‘‘ Taking Care of the Babies ” in the new hall on Saturday even- ing, the 28th inst. A full house is ex- pected.

A few days ago a little girl about three years old, daughter of Mr. B. F. Stewart, fell from a chair and broke her arm. ‘The ittle one suffered much.

Mr. J. Cairns, wife and daughter re- turned home last night from their pleasure trip to Boston, where they were doing the great maritime exhibition.

Following are the particulars as near as cquld he ascertained of the supposed drown- ing of Capt. Kirvan :—

** Some few days ago the schooner Primrose, owned by Mr, A. McQueen came up the river, but on account of the ice she had to anchor about a quarter of a mile from the Bridge where the ice has since formed all round her. The crew were all discharged except Capt, Kirvan. On Thursday last he was engaged in stripping the vessel and in the evening he went home to tea, Shortly after tea—be- tween five and six o’clock—he told his mother that he had to go on board the vessel to put out the fire in the stove and to bring ashore his clothes and some other articles. A passage had been made from the shore to the vessel so that a beat could go in and out as the 1ce was not safe. As the Captain did not return that night his mother became anxious about him and sent a messenger Friday about 2 o'clock to enquire of Mr. McQueen concerning him. Mr. McQueen seeing the vessel’s boat along- side and nobody moving about the vessel pro- cured another boat and went aboard. He found the cabin deor locked and the Captain’s clothes and other articles in the boat where he had evidently placed them. The boat was alongside the vessel and the rope cast off. The vessel was searched but the Captain could not be found. ‘The general supposition is that after he put the things in the boat and when attempting to get in himself he slipped overboard and was drowned. There was no other way for him to get ashore but by the boat. Saturday and Sunday six boats were grappling, but up to the time of writing they have not succeeded iu finding the body.”

Capt. Kirvan was about 58 years old and unmarried. He was a quiet and unassum- ing man, and was the sole suppoyt of an aged and widowed mother who lives but a short distance from the place where it is evident her son met his sudden death.

Breakwater Wanted.

The following is 4 copy of a petition now being passed around for signatures. Over two hundred farmers and fishermen, direct- ly interested, will sign it. Proper boat harbors at suitable places alang the North Side from St. Peter's Bay to East Point are what the peuple of that section of the coun- try stand greatly in need of, and we trust they may be provided for them :—

To the Honorable Sir Hector Langevin, C. B., Minister of Public Works, Canada ;

The petition of the undersigned, residents of Bayfield and neighboring settlements, respect- fully sheweth :

That the inhabitants of this part of the country labor under very great disadvantages, both in agricnitural pursuits and in the prosecu- tion of the fisheries, for want of proper har- bor accommodation,

That, with the exception of Campbell’s Cove Breakwater, the people of the North Side have no harbor of refuge for boat fishing from St. Peter’s Bay on the north to Souris on the south side, a distance of over fifty miles.

That a breakwater of about two hundred feet in length, if built at or near Long Point, Lot 46, would give a depth ot water of twelve feet on the innerside.

That such breakwater wou'!d not ouly bene- fit farmers in giving facilities for shipping pro- duce and importing coal and limestone, but would also prove u« great boon to fishermen in affording them shelter for their boats,

In view of the above, and other reasons whick might be given, your petitioners humbly ask that a sum sufficient be placed in the supplementary estimates at the coming session of parliament to build this much- needed public work. And your petitioners, as in duty bound, will ever pray,

refused to pay for an advertisement, and the editor took it out, but filled up the space with an announcement that it had been taken by

so-an‘l-so who refused to settle, A judge refused an injunction to restrain the publica: tion.

NEARLY all colds are slight, at first, but qheir tendeney is to so lower the system that the sufferer becomes a ready victim to any prevalent disease. The use of Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral, in the beginning of a cold, would guard against this danger.

Tue Toronto Way.—The verdict of a jury in Toronto, delivered the other day, deserves honorable mention. A man was tried for a terrible crime against a child, and the evi. dence was clear enough. The penalty in the discretion of the judge is imprisonment any- where from four years to life. The jury found this verdict: ‘ Guilty, with a recommenda- tion that the full penalty of the law be im- posed.” Put this down on the credit side of the jury account.

labial Gonk To New Grascow.—The Agri- culturist says : Mr. Harry Townsend, of Brookside Farm, New Glasgow, N. §&., has purchased from Parkside Farm here, for $250, the royally bred colt Ed Lyle, 9311, by Administrator, 357, dam Lucy Thorne, by All Right, 5817, second dam Starling, by Thorndale, 305, Star, 14, fourth dam by Wildair. How a colt with such breeding can fail to be a trotter we fail to see, and we wish Mr. Townsend every success with him.

CHRISTMAS PRESENTATIONS. —We were shown a beautiful heavy gold headed cane presented to J. D. McLeod, Esq., on Christ mas Eve, by the young men in his employ. Rev. Mr. Gordon and family have been made happy by the receipt of many tokens of good will from members of the Baptist Chure’: and congregation. Among other gifts Mr. Aupert Norton, of Norton & Fennel, on be half of some friends, conveyed their Chrietmas greeting and expressions of gratitude for Mr. Gordon’s restoration to health, emphasising those sentiments by a gift of $50 in gold.

A Prosrrxous Trape.—A Point du Chen correspondent of the Moncton Vimes says: The past season has been a prosperous one at Point du Cheue. The lumber shipments were far in excess of the previous year’s. The pas senger and freight traffic to and from P. FE. Island was continuous and brisk. The fal! opened up with a brisk potato trade, bat this flattened as soon as the markets broke down: still some 200,006 bushels were shipped in the short time that the market did stand. The Oyster industry of P. £. 1. is steadily growing each year, Some 26,000 bhis. were shipped from the Point. They were nearly all cow sumed in the upper provinces. Live stock, excepting sheep, show decrease, There were 23,090 sheep, which is a considerable in- crease over last year, but horses and cattle are nof up to the previous years. All other articles make a favorable showing notwith- standing the *very dry summer. The extra steamer M, A. Starr gave good assistance in the carrying of the heavy freights, and en- abled the mail boats to make better time.
