he one great obstacle in the way of this
Phy5ic3uY- who Wears Nothing °f and other desirable improvements in our
‘the Island'lrom Tignish to Souris, with
branchestn Georgetown, Charlottetown aodCape Traverse. Unfortunately, and unlike moat other railways, the paineipal tra1!lc.whetl:er of pxesengers, freight o mails, does not originate at either end of the main line, but at Charlottetown and Summerside, respectively one third of
and western ends. This principal tramc on which the earning power of the road so largely depends must he looked ait r .first of all,hn{ with due regard to the branches and outlying points. Any person
with evena limited knowledge of ral!- way operations will see that these con- ditions, together with the necessity oi' making the railway appproximately pay
its way, impose severe limitations as to giving the frequent train service and close connections at junctions that might be desired.
Notwithstanding these considerations
we think the patrons of the railway resident along the Cape Traverse branch have very strong claims to the increased service asked for, and we hope and trust that a way may be provided for oonceding them what they ask. With the train service asked for there is reason to believe the traffic on the Traverse branch would
be fully equal to that oi the Georgetown
branch, which enjoys the privilege of two trains daily in both directions. The country served by the Traverse branch is large and prosperous and promlsesa large increase of traiiic this season from Albany Station, with possibilities of a considerable through business should a steamer be put on to ply between Capes Traverse and Tormentine. It must not be

now the worst served of any part of the Island traversed by the Government
Raiiway,was intended to bc-accommodated with trains carrying the principal trafiio to and from the Mainland. For that
purpose the branch was built, and it ought not now to be dropped out of sight. In the meantime the local needs oi tlzis

CHURCH UNION.
The active movement now on foot de-
signed to bring about nn organic union between the Methodist, Presbyterian and
Congregational churches ofthe Dominion, should it be consummated will form one
numerous and powerful Protestant organ-
ization, far transcending anything hither- to known in Canada. According to the last censusthe Methodist body had the largest number of adherents of any Protestant
cliuroli, followed in order by the Presby-
he last named body being far behind the
others but s'.ill_standlng far ahead of any ni' the smaller bod ics of which the census
takes ncte. Premising that in the whole llouiinion the Roman Catholic church has
u much larger folio ug than any other
religious organization, it may be of in- terest Lo noze what arc the leading
churches in the several Provinces.
In Ontario the Methodist body leads,
followed by the Presbyterian, Roman Catholic and Church oi England in the order named.
ln Quebec the Roman Catholics have a
great. pr. flomlaance. followed in order by the Church of England, Presbyterians and Iilctlioiists.
in Nova S.-otin Roman Catholics are
most numerous, followed by the Presby- tcrians, Baptists, Church _of England and Mcthodistsrln the order here set down.
InNevv Brunswick also the Roman
Cufholics lead. followed by Baptists: Church of England, Presbyterlans and Methodists.
In i‘. F. Island Roman Catholics, Pres-
bytei-ians. Methodists, Church of Eug- `land and Baptists is the order of numeri-
/cal precedence.
in Manitoba the Presbyterians lead, followed i.y1si’¢ui0d|m,cnureii or Eng- land and Catholics.
in British Columbia the Church of
England is the most numerous body, fol- lowed in order of numbers by Presby- terians. Roman Catholics and Methodists.
ln the Territories there aremore Roman
Catholics than of any other body, follow- ed in order hy Church of England, Presby- terians and Methodists. .
To num up: Roman Catholics lead any
other religious body in the entire Domin- lon, in Quebec, Nova Scotia, New Bruns- wick, P. E, island and the Territories. Methodists are the leading body in
Ontario, Presbyterian: in Manitoba and ‘Church oi England in British Columbia.

A number ol election, petitions wereA`
pending in Ontario when the Legislature. was ealled together and proceedings in regard to these were of course, suspended during the session. Now these petitions will shortly some to trial. Five petitions are pending against Liberals and three against Conservatives. Aa the Government majority is but three at pr sent there is naturally great interest in l the result of these election trials.
The Ottawa Citizen doubts whether the
federal elections will becr can properly be brought on until the decision of the Privy Council upon the New Brunswick and P E Island appeals in regardte their representation is handed down. The Citinen also observes that the next sitt- ing of the Privy Gcunoil will take place i.n June and adds, on what ground we know not, that “it is said to be almost if not quite impossible to have the case for appeal prepared in time to be be dealt with at that sittings." This must be, we presume, the Dominion ease against the appeal that is referred to. If not reaiy for the June sittings the hearing must go overtill November, and the decision might not be handed down t’il early in 1905. This might aiIord a pretext for post- poning the elections till next year.

“ I fcel it my duty to try to help those -
suiicring from skin diseases. My case was a very bad one, covering nil of one side of my face and had rcnchcd my eye. I had two or three doctors pre- scribe without any relief. They said my disease was Epithclloma. I was then advised to go to one of our hos- pitals, which I did, taking their trcnt- ment for some time. I had given up all hope when my husband askcil me to try the Cutlcurn Rcxnedics. My t'ac_c being in such it vi-ry had state, I used tho Cuticura Sonp with luke-warm water and n small silk sponge and tlicu applied the Cuticura Ointment. i took one tea- spoonful of the Resolvent four times 9. day. They acted like achurm, and in one week's time my face was cured en- tirely and has remained so. I certainly can recommend the Cuticurn Remedies
as infallible.”

The purity and sweetness, the power
