BALFOUR’S VIEWS ON THE CLASSICS.

He thought that education, unless largely literary, must be one-sided aud defective, but a great majority of school boye were never familiar enough with Latin and Greek to develop there- from the imagination and sympathy which were more desirable than ever in the face of the tendency to overvalue educational side of science and the con etant expanding ofthe insightivto the pysical world. He fivoreda thorough study of the modern and easier lang a @ the instead of the rudiments of Latin and Greek.

Ghase’s Ointment is applied Besides the intense agony caused by the itching, burning sensations of piles, there are other symptoms which produce restlessness and at times excruciating jains known only to the victim of piles. What would one give to be free of thts terrible disease? And yet there is a cure—a positive cure—which does not cost nruch andis not painful or difficult to apply. Dr. A. W. Chase's Ointment is, so far as ts known, the only absolute cure for blind, itch- ing, bleeding and protruding piles. It gives relief at the first application and affords a pet fect cure in the most aggravated cases. Mr. Isaac Foster, Erieview, Ont, says: “I was troubled with itching piles for two years and could not sleep at night. I was halfcrazed and tried everything. Finally seeing Dr. Chase's Ointment advertised I tried it and found it good. After a second application I found relief, and one large box cured me, Have never been bothered since, and I can re- trouble.” j Dr. Chase's Ointment is for sale by al dealers, or Edmanso>. tes & Cy Mate JUST IN oD 03 02.0 A few dozen regulation Hockey Sticks and Pucks re- ceived Saturday.
