Spring
,Medicine
To drive away those drowsy
weary, worn out feelings; or
To purify your blood, regu-
late your bowels, and stir _up
your sluggish liver; or
To brace you up and give
clcarness to your brain and
strength to your body.
» Take Burdock Blood Bitters.
People who have used it say it
is the best spring medicine. .
H ere is a statement from one
of them : i
Mrs. Harris J. Croft, \Vest Dublin, N.S.,
writes: “I have used Burdock Blood
Bitters as a. spring' medicine for the past
two years, and Find it has never been re-
commended too highly. Previous to using
B. B.B. I was troubled with a. dull, drowsy
feeling, and had scarcely life enough to
drag myself around, I was pale and thin
and any little work seemed a. great task.
Since using B.B.B. I am strong, can work
hard and yet not feel tired. My weight
has increased twenty pounds. I would
advise anyone requiring a spring medi-
cine to take B.B.B. in preference to any
0ther.' '

WHAT WOULD EE THE EFFECT.
ln Yesterdays issue of Tm: GUARDIAN
we endeavored to show, what was al-
ready apparent to most minds, tliat the
people of Prince Edward Island desire the
fullest measure for suppression of the
liquor traffic that is available,and that it is
within the power of the Legislature to
give the people a law as complete and ef-
fective as the Maine Law, to which the
the people of that state hn.ve adhered for
a half century past.
\\'e may now consider _what would be
thc effect of such an enactment if we had
it. The first elicct would be to render the
sale of intoxicating beverages illegal in
Charlottetown, and so complete the sys-
tem of prohibition throughout the Island.
The ScottAct would cover the counties
and the Provincial Act would cover the
city, with the further assurance that
should the Scott Act hereafter be abroga-
ted in any one or more of the counties
the Provincial Act would still hold the
ground and the sale of liquor there would
be as illegal as before.
Those who favor the 'Scott Act and
desire its retention in the counties
would thus be doubly assured. No
Provincial Act could or would interfere
with it. At the same, time the induce-
ments at present existiilg to petition
against the Scott Act and seek its repeal
would be taken away, as there gguld be no
object in repealing that Act merely to
come under prohibition in another form
under the Provincial Law. In this way
the. legislative enactment would prove a
very nature in the first pIace,a.nd secondl

SCRIPTURE DESPATCHES.
How the Boer: Quote Texts by Means oi
Hellographlc Messages.
Bnnmn, May 15.-Boer correspondence
by scriptural texts has been quite a
feature of late. The latest example comes
form Johannesberg. It is said to have been
exchanged by helingraph between the
Boer General De Wet and commandant
Cronje before the latter's capltulatlon.
On February 25, at 10 0' clock in the morn-
ing, President Kruger telegraphed to De
Wet:-“Inform Cronje that great rein-
forcements are ‘on the way, and that he
will be freed. Psalm xxii., 21. "(Save me
from the lionls mouth; for thou hast
heard me from the horns of the unicorns.)
Hereupon the following exchange of
messages took place between the two
generals in the fiel_d:-
“February 25, 12:20 afternoon-De \Vet
to Cronje:-President telegraphs to hold
out. Considerable reinforcements are
approaching. As soon as they have ar-
rived we shiillattack early in the morning
from the north. Psalm lxiv., 7." (But God
shall shoot at them with an arrow; sud-
denly shall they be wounded).
“February 25, 4:15 afternoon-Cronje to
De Wet:-My provisions are becoming
scarce: for the rest I do not doubt that
with God’s help I shall be able to'drive
ou’ the enemy to the north. Psalm xx., 7.”
(Some trust in chariots and some in horses
but we will remember the name of the
Lord our God.) ,
“February 26. 7:20 in the morning--De
Wet to Cronje:..Reinforcements, it is to
be '_hoped, come to-day. Hold out till tc-
morrow evening. Are sending provisions
as soon as possible. Psalm lix., 15." (Let
them wander up and down for meat and
grudge if they be not satisfied.)
“February 26, 9:30 in morning:-Cronje
to De \Vet:-The enemy_ha.s received tre-
mendous reinforcements I am hard press-
ed. Psalm lil., 1.’ (Lord, how are they in-
creased that trouble me! Many are they
t-hat rise up against me.) `
