THE CAMPAIGN.
Facts for the Electors,
In the coming elections it is of the greatest importance that every elector should be well informed on matters connected with the Ad ministration of the past five years. With this object in view, a series of political tracts are being issued from the Gazerrrg office at Mon- treal, which are carefully prepared, moderate in tone, and the statements and charges con- tained in them are verified im all cases by reference to official documerts and blue books submitted to Parliament. No greater service can be done to any constituency than a gen- eral circulation of the facts contained in these papers, and the publishers have wisely placed them ata price that brings them within the reach of every Conservative Association, and every constituency. We advise our leading politicians in every school section to send for a hundred of these tracts and distribute them carefully where they will be read. It is the best way to convey a clear and concise view of the political situation, and must result in bringing about an intelligent verdict in the coming elections. There are many politicians who are unable to spare time from their busi- ness to take an active part in the canvass but such men can well afford to spend a dol. lar in circulating information among their neighbors.

Enjoy Life.
What a truly beautiful world we live in! Nature gives us grandeur of mountains, glens and oceans, and thousands of means for enjoyment. We can desire no better when in perfect health ; but how often do the majority of people feel like giving it up disheartened, discouraged and worried out with disease, when there is no occasion for this feeling, as every sufferer can easily ob- tain satisfactory proof that Green’s August Flower will make them as free from disease as when born. Dyspepsia and Liver Com- plaint are the direct cause of seventy-five per cent. of such maladies as Biliousness, Indigestion, Sick Headache, Costiveness, Nervous Prostration, Dizziness of the Head, Palpitation of the Heart, and other distress- ing symptoms. Three doses of August Flower will prove its wonderful effect Sample bottles, 10 cents. Try it.
