I have been troubled with nasal catarrh for i the last five years. Seeing Nasal Balm ad- vertised I procured a bottle, and although I have only used part of it, I do not hesitate to pronounce it the best remedy in the world for that loathsome disease, Catarrh. It is easy and pleasant to use, soothing and healing in its action, instant in giving relief, removes and changes the pvisonous secretions to a healthy state, stops the droppings from the head into the throat, and removes all the symptoms of |Catarrh and Cold in the Head. In fact, if ‘the directions are faithfully followed, nothing but a sure and permanent cure can ‘be the result. Yours truly, JNO. 8S. GEORGE, Baker and Confectioner. THE , 80, DAILY EXAMINER. OCTOBER 29, 1887. | ~ Reduced Railway Rates for Teachers. A correspondent urges strongly that teachers should be permitted to travel at, reduced railway rates, as well as clergymen and prize fighters, comuinercial travellers | He urges very forcibly that} ‘* Nay, the devil help you to the latitude, ’ such a recognition of ;the teachers moral said the Captain, extricating his button from and Indians. and intellectual influences ‘* cannot but be productive of good result, for a knowledge that a man’s efforts are appreciated tends | to make him ‘do his best.’ And not only there are obvious advantages to the increased opportunities of travel, which this scheme would afford him. The proverb, ‘a rolling stone gathers no moss,’ is, in his case, capable of an applicatiou other than the usual one. The moss of narrowness, the moss of dullness, the moss of self- sutticiency—these and other similar growths are apt to gather, uvless the dull routine of school work, aud the usually common-place society of an out-of-the-way district, where the school-master is the acknowledged intellectual ‘ monarch of all he surveys,’ be varied by the contact with other teachers, working according to other methods, and with clever wide awake men and women, which travel renders possible. For it is generally in districts of easy access by railway or steamboat that the most success- ful teachers are to be found, nor is the advantage of intercourse with the shrewd, observant business men, who are the most frequent travellers on our railroads (though it isan advantage that we Islanders too seldom avail ourselves of, to be neglected by those whose ideas need a ‘ brushing up.’ And besides the en route intercourse the teacher who travels reaps the benefit of whatever literary culture is desirable from all the lecturers,etc., who from time to time make their way to our towns. All such intercourse is highly stimulating, and the teachers’ opportunities for it would very materially increased by the granting of tickets at reduced rates. It is clearly a thing that he cannot neglect, for neglect means failure, and failure means relegation to outlying districts with consequent lower- ing of salary, greater liability to be mulcted in part thereof (on the Inspector’s unfavor- able report) and less chance of availing himself of the advantages already described. His position then forcibly recalls the application of the parable of the talents : ‘from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.’ It is in the case of such teachers that the necessity for the proposed concession appears iu the strongest light. The main principle, how- ever, is, of course, applicable to all teachers under actual engagement to teach. Here, manifestly, the line must be drawn, and, to aveid confusion, a proper certificate to be presented to the railway authorites, might be sent to the teacher from the Education Office, on receipt of the usual notice of engagement.” We haven’t sufficient space for our correspondent’s letter in full, but cheerfully insert the above extract for the consideration of the railway authorities. A Mock Marriage. THE DELUDED ‘‘ BRIDE” DESERTED BY WHILOM HUSBAND. The Lunenburg, N. 8. Progress says: ‘* Minnie Langille, of Tancook, who has been at service in different houses here, states that the night before the opening of the Mahone Bay agricultural exhibition of this fall, one Obediah Levy, an old lover, offered his hand in marriage. She accepted and they forthwith progesded to the mar- riage altar. But they never reached that haven of bliss, Instead of escorting charm- ing Minnie to a church or clergyman’s house, this bad Obediah conducted her tu a small building looking like an old school- house, on the outskirts of the town, and there on the edge of the evening was wedded to her under mock marriage rules by a man having nothing to distingush him from a cold-blooded villian except a_ white choker. After the ceremony had thus been performed the newly married pair drove to Mahone Bay, where they spent their honeymoon in viewing the cattle. While there they found it impossible to secure hotel accommodation, and were forced to quarter at a private or buarding house. Minnie sleeping. with the landlady and Obediah with a small boy in the garret. Mr. Levy, not admiring this kind of con- nubial felicity, summarily separated him- self from Minnie, took passage on an out- ward bound vessel and has not since been heard of, while Minnie mourns his absence and. does housework in one of the Montague street houses. ee HER More than half as much traflic passed through the Sault Ste. Marie canal last year as passed through the Suez canal! This is something astonishing, and all the more so when we remember that six years ago the traffic on the Suez Canal was six million tons, and the traffic on the Ameri- can canal only about a million and a half. While the Suez canal increased its tonnage 50 per cent., the American canal increased by 300 per cent. That looks like progress, and, no doubt, this increase is largely due to the C. P. R. and the opening of the Nortu West. And it is comforting to know that we shall soon have a canal of our own at the Sawt, for there will soon be plenty of work on both sides of the str2am. alias: eae Apvice To MorHers.— Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup should always be used when THE PIRATE. | By Sir Walter Scott. ells Seen CHAPTER XII.

Now I see you are impatient to hear out what I was saying. Stop, whereabouts was I?’ ‘*] fear we must put it of, Mr. Halero, until after dinner,” said Mordaunt, who also meditated his eseape, though desirous. of effecting it with more delicacy towards his old acquaintance than Captain Cleveland had thought it necessary to use, ‘* Nay, my dear boy,” said Halcro, seeing himself about to be utterly deserted, *‘ do not you leave me—never take so bad an example as to set light by old acquaintance, Mordaunt. have wandered many a weary step in my day; but they were always lightened when I could get hold of the arm of an old friend like yourself.” So saying, he quitted the youth’s coat, and, sliding his hand gently under his arm, grap- pled him more eftectually; to which ordain submitted, a little moved by the poet's obser- vation upon the unkindness of his old ac- quaintances, under which he himself was an immediate sufferer. But when Halcro re- newed his formidable question, ‘*‘ W hereabouts was 1?” Mordaunt, prefering his poetry to his prose, reminded him of the song which he said he had written upon his first leaving Zetland,+-a song to which, indeed, the in- quirer was no stranger, but which, as it must be new to the reader, we shall here insert as a favorable specimen of the poetical powers of this tuneful descendant of Haco the Golden- mouthed; for, in the opinion of many toler- able judges, he held a respectable rank among the inditers of madrigals of the period, and was as well qualified to give immortality to his Nancis of the hills or dales, as many a gentle sonnetter of of wit and pleasure about town, He was something of a musician also, and on the present occasion seized upon e sort of lute, and, quitting his victim, prepared the instrument for an t, speaking too wecomM pant nt, allthe while that he might lose no time. “IT learned tle lute,” he said, **trom the same man who taught honest Shad well—plump Tom, as they used to call him—somewhat roughly treated by the glorious John, yeu re- member—-Mordaunt, you remember * Methinks I see the new Arion sail, The lute still trembling underneath thy nail; At thy well sharpen’d thamb, from shore to shore, The trebies squeek for fear, the bagses roar, Come, I am indifferently in tune now—what was it to be?’—ay, 1 remember-—nay, The Lass of Northmaven is the ditty-—poor Bet Stimbister} Ihave called her Mary in the verses. Betsy does well for an English song; but Mary is more natural here.’ So saying, after a short prelude, he sung with a tolerable voice and some taste the following verses : MARY. Farewell to Northmaven, Gray Hillswicke, farewell ! To the caims of thy haven. The storms on thy fell To each breeze that can vars The mood of thy main, And tothee, bonny Mary ! Wo meet not again, “Farewell the wild ferry Whaich Hacon could brave, When the peaks of the skerry Were white in the wave, There’s a maid may look over These wild waves in vain For the skiff of her lover He comes not sygain. “ The vows thou hast breke, On the wild currents fling them ; On the quicksand and rock Let the mermaidens sing them. New sweetness they'll give her Re wildering strain : But there’s one who will never Believe them again. “Oh, were there an island, Though ever so wild, Where woman could smile, and No man be beguiled Too tempting a spare To poor mortals were given, And the hope would fix there, That should anchor on heaven !” **] see you are softened, ny young friend, said Halcro, when he had finished his song ; ‘**so0 are most who hear the same ditty. Words and music hoth mine own; and without say ing much of the wit of it, there is a sort of eh—eh—simplicity and truth about it, which gets its way to most folk’s heart. Even your father cannot resist it—-and he hasa heart as impenetrable to poetry and ‘seng as Apollo himself could draw an arrow against. But then he has had some ill luck in his time with the women-folk, as is plain from his owing them such a grudge. Ay, ay, there the charm lies—none of us but have felt the same sore in our day. Bat come, my dear boy, they are mustering in the hall, men and women both—plagues as they are, we should get on ill without them—but before we go, only mark the last turn “* And the hope would fix there, that is, in the supposed island—a place which neither was nor will be * That should anchor on heaven,’ Now, you see, my good young man, there are here none of your heathenish rants, which Rochester, Etheridge, and these wild fellows, used to string together.
