No organs of the body gre more delicate or more sensitive than the kidneys. When symp- toms of disease appear in them not 4 moment is to be lost if health is to be restored. The best way to M treat the kidneys is through the blood, cleansing it from the poison- wus matter which is usually at the bottom of kidney complaints. For this purpose there is no remedy equal to | Ayer’s Sapsaparita “For many years I have been s constant mferer from kidney trouble, and have tied a number of largely advertised kidney ewes without benefit. At last a friend ad- ted me to try Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. The wof eight bottles of this remedy entire] cared my malady.”"—Mary MILLER, 1238 Hancock Street, Brooklyn, 17.

IsLanD Fy “ eR. LIFE. ACCIDENT Reply to Mr. Ephraim Bell. | Sir,--[ti «pleasing t> findrad atiogoutf-om ‘the aarkness and gloom of “ tricksters ;avd the combines” one brilliant gem |Of honesty and intelligence flathing bis | light upon the troubled burizon. It is ‘Surprising that one of such extensive knowledjeas Mr Ky h aim Bell did not take ,advaniage of hie position to secure for himee!f a “ Pullman Dukedom” or“ Carnegie Kingship. ” It is said that figures do not lie, They are sometimes, bowever made to convey false impressiens and ofien become dangerous when in the haods of those who do not understand them. An instance of this,Mr Bell advantage the “Island packers have of sending it to Montreal at 19 cts per pound for hams and 11 to 12 cents per pound for | bacon and whole sides.” He, atjthe same | time, quotes Canadian and Danish, (the Danish rules highest }in every market) at 11 to 14 cents a pound. ‘It may be a surprise to Mr. Bell to learn ‘that the actual English quotation to the ‘Montreal Board of Trade on March 28th [was 28 shillings and 6 pence (to 6.29) «shillings or about 7 cents ‘per pound for Canadian bacon and that Montreal where he claims “11 to 12 cents” as the basis of value is one of the largest ports of export tothe British marke. It is necessary in this connection, to know the difference between a aliceof ham on a retail counter and a barrelle of pates ina jobber’s warehouse. It is “galling” to Mr. Bell to see those poor little ‘100 pound lambe” getting into the hands of “sharks” for the trifling pittance of 2c. per pousd. The suggestion is amusing. And worth 4 to 5 cents in England. Too bad: Equalto the old lady who declared that eggs were worth more than ten cents, “for my darter Sary Jane ;aid 20 cente for a dozen in Bosting only a weck ago.” Surely Mr. Bell is not as ignorant as he professes as to the price and weight of lambs. Does he not know that 100 ibs is farabove the average, and that those averaging L00°\bs or over are not sold for 2 cents per ponod. Has he no knowledge of the fact tlat farmers followiag out their ‘own ideas and dispensing with middlemen every sucuamer, sell lambs on our market equare al 4to 4) dead weight, In his letter he exbibitsan utter abhorrence gf tie middlemen whom in the exuberance of judgment he designates “sharks.” In his programme he would entirely dispense with these. Does he know what a middle- man is? They consist of all who are in- termediate between producer and consum- er. After Mr. Bell succeeds iv having all these wiped out of existence who will be left to eat his mutton?

The Lansing, Michigan, Reptblican (March 25), publishes an ioterview with a returned Kiondiker, who gives a timely | Warning to those who intend joiming the | rush to the Klondike gold fields. Spesk-~ ing of the departures from the coast he says : “It is positively criminal the way peo. ‘ple are being taken from the ceast to | Alaska. Five vessels have been lost since October, one with sixty and one with |forty, losing every soulon board. I saw steamers goieg out carrying double the:r capacity. Men were huddied on the for- lward decks, promiscuously with horses ‘and dogs, saad only room to stand, No | shelter er protectiow from wind or storm. |Louly wonder thatas many get through alive asdo. People are so fierce te go that ‘they accept anything, but still many are ‘eaught by baying steamer traneportation | before thev Jeave honre, and do not know ‘what they are gettiog. “Of course transportation facilities wil) improvein time. If a man is gomg to the Klondyke, he will save monev, time and | health by waiting a few weeks. Two | Atlantic ocean steamers, bought by the Canadian Pacific to run from Vancouver and Victoria to Alaska, are now on their way around the Horn and will reach the coast in the next ten days. They can carry 1#00 people each, with ease and safety. Tue last of April there will be steamers running on the Stikine river and by the middle of May they will be running on Lake Teslin. Many wil! be disappointed and fai] wpyway, but if you are bound to go it is better to take cormmon sense pres cautions against failure so far as within your own control, _— A ee —-———- AGRADUATE OF TORONTO UNIVER- SIT ¥ SAY. “My children have been treated with Scott’s Emulsion from their earliest years!
