_ 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- , ine in thousands of households.

“T have suffered for years from & 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 difticulty in breathing. I have tried a great many 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.

“‘T consider Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral a most important remedy

For Home Use.

¥ 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 aduits.’? — Mrs. E. G. Edgerly, Council Blufis, 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 | eure was effected. I believe that Ayer’s | Cherry Pectoral saved my life.’’— , Samuel Griggs, Waukegan, Ill.

“Six years ago I contracted a severe | cold, which settled on my lungs and | goon developed all the alarming sym i toms of Consumption. I had a cough, | night sweats, bleeding of the lungs, pains in chest and sides, and was so qrasentes as to be confined to my

ed 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.” — Rodney Johnson, Springfield, IL.

ed. “The second consists in the encourage- ment given to loungers, who crowd in gossipping parties within the doorway, and present a phalaux through which customers, particularly gentlemen, do not like to pene- trate. In Charlottetown ** connection ” has a great deal to do with the - success of the shop-keeper. There are, accordingly, special cases which I am not prepared to discuss. For instance, if a shop keeper proposes to set up a rivalry against the old- established and respectable tradesmen, I should certainly feel inclined to advise him to pause in the attempt. But if he replied that his ‘‘ connections” were suflicient to

over rule my objection, ‘‘ Connections,” however, are vot to be relied upon. They are, as a general rule, more exacting and less easily satisfied than the general public.

i have known many an unfortunate victim keep open after six o'clock reiying upon the promises of

‘* connection,” open with the most glow- ing prospects and close with the most disastrous results, namely, ‘** Heavy gas bills.”

Your ‘‘connection,” of course, you'to keep open after six o'clock.

Your ‘‘connection,” of course, expects you to give credit.

Your ‘‘connection ” is surprised that you should be so unfortunate about your little bill, forgetting, ‘*gentlemen,” that youhave your gas bill to settle.

Your *‘ connection ” finds that your goods are not a bit better or cheaper than the tirst-class tradesmen’s that do not keep open after six.

Your ‘‘connection” reminds you of cer- vain obligations that you are under.

Your ‘‘connection,” after a while, finds positive disparagement againt your goods, upon comparing them with articles bought by a friend from another establishment be- iore sun down.

Your ‘‘ connection” consequently goes over to that other esta blishmeat—too often forgetting to pay his little bill.

And, gentlemen, when you venture to remonstrate you lose your ** connection.”

The large shopkeeper frequently grows proud of his position; there are many little civilities which employes like, but which the large shopkeeper may be tuo busy or un- willing to pay. It would be unpardonable not to say something regarding one of the chief obligations, both physically and moraly speaking, which attaches tu the pursuits of any retail occupation. The shopkeeper has not only his own health and happiness to regard, but the health and happiness of all those whom he em- ployes. He is, therefore, the repository of much responsibility; and as justice to him- self ought to be regulated with an eye to the performance of justice to others, his first care ought to be to have a specific hour for closing his establishment, so that those whom he may employ may know at what hour their daily labor may cease. In whatever respect our ‘‘ modern merchants ” have risen in their habits over those of their ancestors in France, England and other large countries, so far as early closing is concerned they have woefully degenerat- ed. Inthe fourteenth century the shops in Paris were opened at four o'clock in the morning and closed at two in the afternoon. As I have never been fortunate enough to visit Paris or England, perhaps some of the

Frage (4d England do their shopping? Is it ae sundown? I| think the answer will hein the negative.

There are young ladies and men from 16 years of age to 25 or 30 whu are engaged in dry goods stoves in Charlottetown daily about 12 to 14 hours, of which twelve hours and a half are actually employed in busi- ness ; and during this time they are jot permitted to sit down or look into a book, but are standing or moving about from morning till night, generally in an atmo-

spheré exhausted by respiration, and in rooms ill-ventilated. When night arrives, gas lights and closed

doors complete the deterioration of the air, till at length it becomes almost pestiferous. Between five and six their meals must be swallowed hastily, like the mouthful of water which impatient travellers afford to a smoking post-horse in the middle of a long stage. No exercise is allowed in the open sunshine, their only relaxation being to take a walk in the streets about nine o'clock at uight—whea the sober and vir- tuous part of the community have retired to their dwellings, or to smoke and drink away the last hour of their evening at a tavern or hop beer vendor's, or to form pleasure parties for Sunday. From the company of their friends they are excluded. All the scientific institutions that you were | good enough to advocate in Monday’s even-

Ch’town, Oct. 24, 1888. : ncleislllaialiialed Look Below the Surface. | Sirn,—-In the Patriot, of Oct. 20th, ‘* Vindex ” has undertaken to criticise Mr. 'Kielly’s paper. He confines his criticisms to the grammatical construction of sen- tences:

There is always motive for deliberate action. Does this ** Vindex,” therefore, write in such a strain for the benefit of the public, to whose consideration the paper has been submitted? or to gratify his vaniiy? Pephaps inthis case we may ap- ply his quotation slightly attered: ‘* ’Tis pleasant, sure, to see one’s ‘thoughts’ in print.” His name is withheld; very simple reasoning would establish here an accusa- tion of deception. ‘** Vindex” may, after exhausting this mine of gems, which fortu- nately or unfortunately (let results show) he has taken upon himself to explore, in- form the publicto whom it is indebted for instruction; for surely a_ self-constituted critic (whether efficient or not) speaking with such decided terseness, will not per- mit the existence of a doubt to shadow his his identity.

I may suggest to him the probability of gems—not literary—hidden under the sur- face of Mr. Kielly’s production, a consid- eration of which, if his powers admit of being concentrated thereon, might result in benefit to himself. We may reject the husk, but in no wise the kernel. ‘Tis but folly to give close inspection to the mere surface. Let it be ours to weigh the inner sensé—ideas worthy of the best talent, the clearest thought.

Ch’town, Oct. 25, 1888.

Public Opinion.

A correspondent of the Toronto Globe says :

‘* This idea of always finding fault with our position as a Dominion is surely very much against us in our progress as a country. What do we want’? Our climate is good, so is our soil, and if our laws are bad, who is to blame? Ourselves only. We are independent to all intents and purposes. Our mother country does not interfere except in sending us a Gov- ernor, which is in my opinion a great advan- tage compared with the turmoil that is go- ing on amongst our neighbors. Reciprocity with the United States would be of service. But Commerciai Union would be against us. We would be obliged to adopt their tariff which would show a very unpatriotic | to Great Britain which allows us to sena everything we have to sell without any tariff against us. Commercial Union with Great Britain would look to me more sensible.” Another correspondent of the same journal says: “It is desirable that we should have as free access to the American and English mar- kets as possible (and, of course, ail other mar- kets). tis doubtful if Canada could main- tain for any length of time an independent Protestant Government, The Privy Council has, during the last few years, prevented one or two civil wars, Our connection with Great Britain has given us the peace we bave so long njoyed. Canada by herself would be better able to repel an attack made by a modern European army, than the native indians were .ble to resist the invaders 200 yearsago. We have very little to lose by British Connection, and we have now the protection of the gr at- est navy the world ever saw. Our ships can trade in nearlye ery portin the world. Po- litical union with the States could give us no more. If some of the people in the United States had less braggadocia and there were more Christians among both people, confed- eration of ail English-speaking people or some- thing of that kind might be brought about.”
