Much permanent illness is brought about from the simple fact of ignorance in the man- igement of our own bodies. Many serious troubles might have been prevented by consulting a specialist of known ability at the proper time. That well-known axiom, “a stitch in time saves nine,” may be applied to the practice of medicine in the treatment of diseases of the most painful and dangerous nature. If the first warning symptoms are ohserved,and brought to the notice of a compelent specialist, the final (and often fatal) permanent disease might have been prevenied. But even if such a chronic condition is present, it isalways possible to alleviate and often possible to arrest the progress of the disease, and thus make an otherwise miserable existence a happy one, by consulting one who has devoted years of his life to the treatment of chronic ailments. F r . . . . » lo Treat Private and Chronie Diseases Successfully not only requires special ability, but also an extensive experience, and ag thousands of rare and obscure cases are yearly treated by them, aided by all that medical science of to-day affords, it can readily be seen why it is that they are so.successful in the curing of all Private and Chronic Diseases, Syphilis, Catarrh, Asthma, Consumption, Heart Disease, Dyspepsia, Kidney, Liver and Bowel Diseases, Piles, Rheumatism, Cancer, Tumor, Varicose Veins, Ulcers, Deafness, Sore and Weak Eyes, Blood and Skin Diseases, Fits, Female Complaints, Nervousness, Stammering, Bashfulness, General Debility, aud all Diseases of the Nervons System, are among their principal specialties. The Special Remedies used for DIABETES Mellitus never fail to Cure It will be for your interest, if sick or unwell, to consult the Consulting Surgeon, who has had years of experience in treating the above-named diseases. All cases that hive come under his persoaal supervision have rarely if ever failed to be benefited or cured. Laboratory —Notre Dame Street.

Fail Herrjng Fishery. Tue Government Commissivners to en- quire in the Herring Fishing Industry make the following extracts from tbe report of Inspector Duvar, of Alberton, for 1887:— ‘*‘Actual proof has this year been obtain- ed, of the correctness of an impression which I have frequently expressed in re- ports and otherwise, that the coasts of Prince Edward Island might be made the seat of an extensive fall fishery.” ‘*‘Along the north coast, especially off King’s County, herrings were seen this fall and some thousands of barrels were taken, equal to Labrador, According to appear- ance this fishery has only to be pursued with energy to attain large proportions. : Were this fishery established, its ramifications would extend far. Fisher- men would have employment after mackerel left.” “The hands now engaged in lobster pack- ing, would find equally profitable employ- ment in the various processes of the herring lishery, as is the case on the coasts « Scotland, Teamsters, and other pers: on shore, would fiud no falling off in t! employment, while coopers, &c., would their business largely increase. Wit! increasing energy this business \ organize itself | am very guine asto the success of a fall her: tishery, after a beginning has been ma and in conversation with several firms 1 terested in the fisheries, there seems to | perly pursue the herring fishery, drift nets and a better class of boats are neces- sary. Were such a permanent herring fishery developed, it would be mamly a Canadian industry, with little to fear for competition with the United States. Al- though I have no great faith in the princi- ple of fishing bounties, it might be worthy of consideration whether a special bonus might not be offered for a limited term for in the gulf.” ; The Commissioners remark that ‘‘these the opinions we formed on this subject, from our observation of the herring fishery in Scctland. While, from certain favorable circumstances referred to by Mr. Duvar, Prince Edward Island would be a good in drift net fishing, we think that experi- ments should not be confined to the coast of that Island, although there seems little reason to doubt that such a fishery cou d be successfully established there. We think that experiments with a view to deep sea drift net fishing should be made along the entire Atlantic coast of the Dominion. We think that such experiments and the pre- liminary expense would be more than any combjnation of our fishermen could bear, and more than any syndicate of fish mer- chants would be disposed to furnish, especially in a branch of the fishing busi- ness, in which, when once developed, everybody could participate. The subject is one of great national importance, and could only be successfully undertaken and successfully carried out by Parliament and the Government, through the Department. The Governments of the herring fishing nations of Europe, Britain, Holland, Novr- way, Sweden and France has spent large sums of money in developing and encoursg- countries ; and there can be no doubt that Canada will do what may be necessary ia this matter. To this end we are 6f opinioa that at Jeast six buats, being two for eaca Province, of the class and build of the Wick boat, with modifications, bringing the boat more into harmony with American lines, and rendering the boat more suitable net fishing, should be procured by the general Government, 50 to each boat. China Wedding. On the evening of the 19th inst. Mr. and Mrs, Hugh McLean, of Rustico, celebrated the 20th anniversary of their marriage. Quite a number of the friends of the family were present, and sat down to a sumptuous repast in the shape of a hot supper. ,The genial host and hostess were the recipients of numerous useful and beutiful presents of chinaware. ‘‘The night drave on wi’ sangs and clatter” till the *‘wee sma’ hours,’ when, expressing the wish that the host and hostess might live to celebrate their golden wedding **Each took aff his several way, Resolved to meet some other day.” 0+ Oe Journal of Commerce says:—‘*Reuben Rob biee, general storekeeper, of Suminerside, P.
