There is no other preparation for dis- eases of the thtoat and lungs to be com- pared with this remedy. “My wife had a distressing cough, with pains in the side and breast. We tried various medicines, but none did her any good until I got a. bottle of Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral, which has cured her, A neighbor, Mrs. Glenn, had the measles, and the cough was relieved b the use of Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral. have no hesitation in r»commending this Cough Medicine to every one afflicted.’’—Robert Horton Foreman Lfeadligi:(, Morrillton, Ark, “T have been afflicted with asthma for forty years.

Pedestrians can now travel with ,comfort from one end of the village to the other. The street lamps have beea recent- \ly re-lighted and young and old may be Seen of an evening enjoying a stroll after , the labors of the day are over. | Rev. W. W. Brewer preached in the Methodist Church on Sunday morning. The sermon is highly spoken of by those who heard it. The many friends of the Rev. Father Donald F. McDonald will be glad to learn thas he has recovered from his late illness and was able to celebrate mass in St. Mary’s Church on Sunday last. A large number of the fishing fleet, An:- erican and Provincial, came into Souris for shelter on Saturday where they remained until Monday when, the weather moderat- ing, they weighed anchor and sailed for the fishing grounds. The cruiser Critic follow- ed them. They ali came back for shelter in the evening. They have all caught more or less mackvrel within the last week or \sv. Seining, atter the usual mode, has | proved a complete failure this year. The plan adopted this season is, first to throw | bait to raise the mackerel. If any appear, ‘the hook and line are used for all they are worth by some of the crew, while others take charge of the seine, throwing it as dexterously as possible around the vessel, thus enclosing whatever mackerel may be within reach, which frequently are but few enough; but occasionally quite a haul is taken in this way. The shore fishermen are abvut giving up the chase. Some of them, however, have done exceedingly well this season. A few high lines at Priest Pond, North Lake, West River, and further west, have caught as high as $300 worth adory. If mackerel are fewer than in former years, the extra high price which this year’s comparatively small catch com- mands in the market, more than compen- sates the successful fishermen for the scarcity. Farmers are beginning to bring their pro- duce to market. The blight in the vat crop is an old story, but it is true all the saiae ; and it is only now, when the grain is being threshed out, that the farmers fully realize how short a crop it is. Never- theless, oats bring but 33 cents a bushel. Potatoes sell readily at 22 cents. The schr. Maggie Alice, Capt. James Launigan, owner and master, loaded with cattle, produce, etc., for St. Pierre, Miq., is now ready to sail. The schr. Twilight, Vapt. George Leslie, is also preparing to take in a like cargo for the same market. James Stanley, the young man who had his thigh broken on . knight’s wharf some few weeks ago, is booked for home in the Maggie Alice, Capt. Lannigan kindly con- senting to take him back to his widowed mother in St. Pierre free of charge, The schr. Armada, Capt. Ross, is ashore about two miles south of East Pomt. In coming round the reef she bruke her fore- mast which caused her to become unman- ageable. She ran ashore soon afterwards on the beach. The crew had considerable difficulty in getting ashore, but all landed safely. She is loaded with oats belonging to A. J. McLeod, of Stanley Bridge. The cargo is to be removed into another schooner. Unless a heavy storm sets in, it is thought the wreck may be yet floated off. October 2, 1889. Sturgeon Methodist Church Anni- versary. * The above anniversary was held on Sun- day, Sept. 29, when sermons were preached by the Rev. Silas James, of Murry Har- bor South, at 10,30 a. m.; the Rey. W. H. Spencer, M. A., at 2.30 p. m., and the pastor, the Rev. John Goldsmith, at 6.30, to large and appreciative congregations. On Tuesday, Uct. 1, the congregational picnic was he:id. A large tumber assem- bled and spent a very pleasant afternoon. At 6.30 p.m. the company adjourned to the church, where, after devotional exer- cises, conducted by the pastor, the chair was taken by the Hon. Senator Prowse, who opened the meeting with a very able and appropriate address. The hon. chairman then introduced the delivered his lecture on ** Fashion,” which was listened to with intense interest and delight. A hearty vote of thanks to the lecturer was moved by Mr. Geo. Hickin und seconded by Mr, John Collings. A vote of thanks to the hon. Senator for his kind- /ness in presiding, and a few. remarks froia ithe pastor brought a most successful anni- 'versary to a close, The financial result was a lessening of the Church debt by about $60. ek + eee It is astonishing how rapidly the feeble and ‘debilitated gain strength and vigor when tak- ‘ing Ayer’s Sarsaparilla.

With the Putriot we greatly regret to hear of the sad and sudden death death of Mr. Wallace Stewart, son of Donald Stewart, Esq., Cardigan. The deceased was employed as quarter-master onthe ateamer Frostburg, running between Baltimore and seston, When passing from the steamer Charles F. Mayer to his own steamer, lying in Ba}timore h hee on the 23d inst., he fell down the hatchway of the former left carless!y open and was killed. The sad occurrence was so abso- lutely accidental that the coroner, after examining carefully iuto the matter, declined to hold an inquest The Queen is now enjoying her autuma sojourn in the Highlands of Scotland, the climate of which seems to agree with her jhealth. A London correspondent says :— \**There is no mere pretence in the semi- official statement communicated to the news- papers that Queen Victoria’s h®alth has been greatly improved by her visit to Scotland. She is in the most cheerful frame of mind, and as active as any woman of 70 could possibly ‘be. She is interested in all her drives; and though she walks but little, she takes exercise up to the extent of her strength. Her enjoy- ment of the neighborhood, which she knows so well, seems to become more intense from familiarity, and every day seems to show the effect of the bracing air of the north upon her body and mind.” Her Majesty will remain at Balmoral until the middle of Noverrber. tere His Breath Took Fire. HORRIBLE FATE OF A WHISKEY SOAKED BUM IN SAN FRANCISCO, Twelve years ago last months aman met death in a peculiar and horribie manner in San Francisco, says the St. Louis Republic. The writer believes that a full and succinct account of this rare accident has never been given the public, the proprietor of the establishment where it occurred keeping the facts from the reporters for fear of hurting his trade. They are about as fol- lows: James Harley, the victim, had just recovered from an attack of delirium tre- mens. He had been a regular sot and was thoroughly soaked with alcohol. His last attack of the ‘‘jim-jams” was the third he had undergone within afew months On the morning in question he had started on another spree. At about 11 o’clock in the day he had about al] the liquor on board he was able to carry. Step- ping into a salvon on-one of the principal streets, he called for a swig of **bug juice,” which was promptly refused, the bartender noting the condition ef the man and re- 'membering his late battle with the snakes. , Harley scowled, and turned to a gas jet to ‘light his pipe. A secdnd Jater there was a drunken moan, a flash of alcoholic flame, and Harley fell heavily on the floor, his head and neck veiled in smoke, while biue jets of flame was issuing from his ears, ‘inouth and nostrils. As soon as water could be procured (water is a commodity rather scarce around such places) it was dashed in the sufferer’s face, not in time, however, to save his life. The face was as black as that of a negro. The ears were charred, the inside of the mouth black, and the tougue roasted to a crisp. It wasa horrible and uncanny death, for which a duplicate would be hard to find, . i> -- <>< News Notes. The blockade on the East African coast is ended.
