Only Took That Long for the Canadian Parliament to Grant Aid to ’Frlsco.

O'rr.».vvA, April 21. Five minutes' time was found sufllcient. to put through its preliminary stages a vote of one hundred thousand dollars for San`Fx~anclsco. After routine business Hon. Mr. Fielding rose and stated the case lu five sentences. He obsarveiithat the case hc had to bring before ihe house fvvould bo accepted on both sides as one of urgency. A great disaster hail befallen the city of Snn- Francisco. We of the northern part of this continent would be izlad to share in the opportunity of alleviating distress. So soon, therefore as the other members should have expressed their views he would in the usual way introduce a message from the governor-general recom- mending a supplementary vote of $100,000 for this purpose.

R. L. Borden said the ciilainity was

so vast that its extent could hardly be linaglned. He would only say that ln the presence of such a disaster and for s. purpose of aiding tho sufferers, the two nations were one.

The message was then introduced;

V ALUABLE ADVICE T0 MOTHERS,

If your child comes in from play co_ugl\-

ing or showing evidences of Gr-ippe, Sore Throat.,or sickness ofuny klnd,geto\1i. your bottle of Nervillne. Rub the chest and neck with Ncrvlllnm and give internal doses of len drops of Nervlline in sweeten- ed _wnter every two hours. This will prevent any serious trouble. No linlment or pain reliever equals Polson's Ncrviline which has been the great family remeiiy in Canada for the past fifty yours. Try 0. 250. bottle of Ncrvillne.
