“SPEAK NOW.”
Tue “ollowing, from the Montreal Star Wa probably intended as a hint to the i Va Uppositions in Canada:
‘7. eee time for pol itica vaers to secure the attention of the c y is when there is no election in sig Then fewer u ay come out to meet Ines, but those few are in a more dispas- S100a and reasonable frame of mind. Couve ts can be made, then, fromthe other side. « delicate Operatioa that is well-nich

Now that winter is near and the
have leisure for thought and dis- do wei\ if they were to take time by the forelock and begin, without delay, a series of mee‘ings for the consideration of The Situation aod what had better be done about ¢ disap)ointment and discontent throughout this Province avd Canada at large, need not be stated. Instead of reduced ex- pendi'ures On the part of our government, there has been increased expenditures, instead of lower taxes, higher taxes; in- stead of a better administratioa of alfa rs,a@ worse and a far more extrava- gant administration of affairs. The people are beginning to open their eyes to the facts of the situation, and to see that though times have upon the whole been somewhat improved throughont Canada as a result of crop failures in Europe and gold di-coveries in Britieh Columbia ard on the Yukon, there is great danger that the auvantage of the improvement may be lost owing tothe incompetence and reck- jes#ness ofour varieus Liberal Governments: Notwi'astanding the results of recent bye- elections in Quebec the careful observer has vt failed to note that the “epidemic of Liberal em” is dying out, The gush of iberal enthusiasm is alrealy goue in the pr-sence of cold facts; and the minds of the people have been sobered down to such ® stare that many of those who voted for the Liverale, hoping great things, are now ready to listen to Conservative representa- tiuns, and to favorably consider them.

Lite Johnny was eight years old, there- fore t+ could look back to several Christmas holidays witha hvely remembrance of what (hey were like, and what had taken piace on those festa! Occasions,
Une ef Johnny’s ideas (not originel with’ w
Jolnoy by any means, as many a parent can testify) was that it isa boy’s mission to make a8 much noise as possible in the world, «od, in spite of frequent admonish- ing an! more or less frequent whippings, he perevveringly carried out the idea on all egcacio 18, except when he was asleep.
Johnny was fulfiiling his mission with more vigor and enthusiasm than usual on Christs:as morning, but nobody paid any attention to himexcept his aunt Jane, who was visiting Johony’s parents during the holiday+, and she finally grew tired of the noise, aad-said,
“Sobnny, it is very naughty to keep up ench adin and racket all the time, and if you doa’t stop it I chall have to speak to your mother about it.”
“Hub, Wot good ’!] that do ?” ecornfully demanded Johnny.
“Why, she will whip you if you don’t stop,” threatened.the young man’s aunt.
“Guess not!” retorted Johnny, with an air oftriamph. “Chrie’mas ain’t my day fer gett ng whipped. I allers get whipped the day before Chrie’mas and the day after bat I never do on Chris’mas.”—From the “Editor's Drawer,” ia Harper’s Macazive for December.

Sir Wilfrid Laurier and Mr. Mulock are announced to speak during the Centre Toronto campaign. Mr. Foster and Mr, Clarke Wallace will also uphold the cause they represent. The contest wil! be an important One as indicating how public Op- | inion is setting, and the ministers plainly |
see that if it goes against them the effect will be great.
Tne New York Mail and Express says that so large a fire as that which destroyed $25,000,000 worth of pr yperiy in London is impossible in New York.
mT)
be secret of
ihe catastrophe, according to the Mail and Express, lies in British con-
servatism, which has refused to adopt American methods. It js patronizingly remarked that the lesson will be a useful one if it teaches London to adopt New York methods. This sort of boasting is dangerous. Many a city has thought that it had purchased immunity from big fires. And mavy acity has found that it is not safz to assume that a great fire is impors ible. The next lesson may be taught in
New York.
An Anglican clergyman, a Roman Catholic priest, a Jewish rabbi and a con- gregationalist minister epoke at the funeral services of Henry George, who was a pro- testant of the Anglican church. The rea eon why these clergyman met there was perhaps sufficiently state! by Dr. Lyman Abbott, the Congregtionalist. “It is be- cause I believe,” said Dr. Abbott, “that Henry George was thus a true fullower of Christ, thatI, whoalsotry to bea follower of Christ, am glad to be here to-day and as those few simple wores, Injustice he did not look upon as mere theoretical wrong. He loveol truth. He loved hia fellow-men And he identified himeelf with them.”
Lord Wolsely’s idea is that the way to improve the army is to increase the men’s allowances. Many others will agree in this. There bas been a g-eat industrial change in Great Britain, us in other parte of ths world since a shilling aday reprea- ented an average man’s wage. Even in the agricultural districts, from which in the past large numbers of good recruits were drawn, the army pay long ago ceased to be an inducement to enlistment, and the neerdowell and the morally unfit become
too prominent among the recruite. What they can do after training,the world knows; what an army that might be created if the pay was that of good laborers even could do, Cromwell’ssoldiers gave come idea. They were the best paid, and the best the world ever saw,

Worked the Officers.
A sailmaker’s mate in the navy who anted to get out of the service to go
into business with some money he had {
fallen heir to made a success of the monomania dodge. It is the business of @ man-of-war sailmaker’s niate to sew up members of the crew who die at sea in ‘hammocks preparatory to their be- ing cast over the side, This sailmakey’s - mate appeared on deck one day with a queer look in his eye and announced to his shipmates forward that he was dead and that he was going to prepare him- self for burial in the deep. Some of the men watched him as he went to the sailmaker’s storeroom and began to sew himself up in a new hammock. When he had got the job about half finished, the men informed the officer of the deck of the case, and the sailmaker’s mate was put under observation in double irons. When he was released from the brig, still under observation, but appar- ently not aware of the espionage, he went direct to the storeroom, got an- other hammock and began to enshroud himself again. The skipper of the ship reduced him to the rate of seaman for this, for the purpose of keeping the man away from the sailmaker’s storeroom, thinking that if he was removed from the sight of the stored up hammocks his mania might leave him. The night of the day he lost his rate the ex-sail- maker’s mate broke into the storeroom where the new hammocks were kept and sewed himself up for burial again. Then the fleet surgeons held a survey on him, and he got his discharge. He started a tobacco store for sailors near one of the navy yards, and for some time he made it @ practice to stand in the doorway of his shop and grin when any of the board of surgeons who had ounced him insane passed by, as they were compell- ed to do on their way to and from the navy yard.—New York Sun.

A Bee Was Kept.
A girl from town is staying with some country cousins who live at a farm. On the night of her arrival she finds, to her mortification, that she is ignorant of all sorts of things connected with farm life which to her country eousins are matters of everyday knowl edge. She fancies they seem amused at her ignorance.
At breakfast the following morning she sees on the table a dish of fine hon- ey, Whereupon she thinks she has found an opportunity of retrieving ber humil-
iating experience of the night before
' «f showing her country cousins that
knows something of country life
| aiicr all. So, looking at the dish of he , she says carelessly:
“Ab, L see you keep a bee.’’—P rar- son’s W ily.

These monkeys belong to a group of thumbless apes which are to be found only in Africa and are called by the natives
guereza. They have a black tail, from which depends a beautiful white brush, while the whole of the hair of the back of the animal, which islong and silky and white, hangs over tne sides of the body and over the front and hind legs as well, thus giving it the peculiar appearance of wearing a shawl.—Strand Magazine.
Didn’t Like the Saw Edges.
When the government issued the first perforated stamps a few of the good folk living in the country were so bound by conservatism that they placed the stamps on their letters only after they had clipped off the perforations. They had been using smooth cut stamps for many years and they did not propose that any newfangled arrangement should have encouragement from them. They were so accustomed to secing the trimmed stamps that the perfo- rated ones did not have the proper appear- ance.—Chicago Record.
Perfectly Cured
Weak and Low Spirited — Nervous Prostration—Appetite Poor and Could Not Rest.
‘**T take great pleasure in recommending Hood's Sarsaparillatocthers. It has been the means of restoring my wife to good health. She was stricken down with an attack of nervous prostration. She suf- fered with headaches and her nerves were under severe strain. She became very low spirited and so weak she could only do a little work without resting. Her appetite was poor, and being so weak she could not get the proper rest at night. She decided to try Hood’s Sarsaparilia, as we had heard it highly praised, and I am glad to state that Hood’s Sarsaparilla has perfectly cured all her ailments.” G.

Walter Lester Carr, M. D., Pliysiciaa to Out-patient Department of St. Mary’s Free Hospital for Children; i York CILV, Saye:
“The inheritance of many children is a sad one. The so-called disease—nervons- gives the little child a poor founda- tion on which to build physical bealth, and mental strength. The wear and tear of business, the excitement and dissipation of social life,and the strike to get ahead 80 common among all classes, deprive the men and woman of this century of the vitality they should possess in order to transmit health to their oftspring.”
Parents of Canada, let us say it is just the old, old story—weakened nerves. You Lave left your little ones a sad legacy Before they gruw up see that you do your
iti N Ww
ness
duty to them. Do not let nervous weekness run on, to” end possibly in one of the many serious dis-
orders that may cul him cff. When your child feels nervous, irritable, does rot feel well,has headache, variable appetite, or any of the symptoms of nervous disord- ers, give it Paine’s Celery Compound; there is no other mediciue which is so well adopted for the little one’s, It is pleasant totake, entirely vegetable, and cannot harm the most delicate system. It will quickly banish all nervousness, will promote strength, give @ vatural appetite, and make the child feel well ail cver.
Mrs. Powell, Palace Street, Montreal, used Paine’s Celery Compound for her children with woaderful results; she says:
** In the early part of the past summer my children seemed to be frail, nervous and restless, and had no appetite for their meals. Fully convinced from persoual experience of the great value of Paine’s Celery Compound, I resolved to have my little ones use it. The results are so pleasing and satisfactory that I am promp- ted to advise you, for the benefit of parents who are anxious regarding the condition of their dear ones who are frail or nervons.’
