THE CITY ACSOUNT S.
The finances of the city of Char-
lottetown are stated with clearncss in
the annual reports, an abstract of
which appears elsewhere in this issue
of Tun GUARDIAN.
So far as the ordinary revenue and
,expenditure for the year 1899 were
concerned the year was a prosperous
gone, the receipts exceeding the ex-
penditures by $4.002 59.
The debt was apparently increased
in several ways. The ordinary debt
grew from 8170249.39 to 8184 965.-
.` 41; the debt on water works azcount
was increased from $205,500 to $206-
,000; the sewerage debt was increased
changes make the total city debt at-
tbe beginning of this year $507,968#
41, or 881.219 02 more than it was a
As against this indcbtedxlem of
'something over-half a million the city
owns the water works, sewerage sys-
and bank credits &c, sumcieut to
cover all liabi1ities,with $1 1.730 to the
ing the year, which was mainly on
sewerage account, was anticipated
and provided for. 'Ihe sewerage rye-
tem will be well worth what it is
costing the city.

LIQUOR LEGISLATION.
The precent unsatisfactory condi-
tion of the liquor laws is of late
awakening increased attention in both
Summelside and Charlo'tet0wn, and
it is intended to ask the Legislature to
make important changes. These will
be foresliadowed in due time.
The present license lsw has inaugu-
rated such acarnival of drunkenness
as has more than realized the worst
fears of its opponents and has quite
disgusted even its earlier defenders.
Tm: GUARDIAN has not had and
will not hare any favor for the license
system, but it may be pointed out
that in Nova Scotia, Where the sys-
tem is in vogue,liccnstsare only grant-
ed on the requisition of two thirds of I

An ncettlme gas plant has been
erected at Asesam which shows that the
ease with which this gas can be gener-
ated from calcium carbide should gsm
for lt wtde favor in parts of the worl
where it would be impossible to hsve
a gas or electric light plant. The lac
ofa good illumulsnt is often felt severe-
ly by colonists and others in far-away
parts of the world, and acetyle: e is a
welcome relief from kerosene oil an
candl s.
It is said that in Japan ext lnsive pre
psrations are being made for _lighting
railway cars by ate ylene gas. Accord

A step in the right direction in
to purify the body by the use of a
natural remedy. Hood’s Sarsaparilla
is Nature’s remedy. It acts upon the
blood, and whether the scat of the dis-
order is brain, stomach, liver or kid-
neys, the purifying process of this
medicine is equally sure and successful.
It never disappoints.
Bad( Agzhe-“My mother had severe
pains in her side and back. She was obliged
to give up work. A friend persuaded her
to take Hood's Sarsaparilla and soon she
was able to d '
o ner work,»1ree from pain
and had a good appetite.” MAocut Menon,

Nervg F995-“My wife was stricken
with nervous prostration. She sudered
from headaches. She became weak, low-
spirlted and her appetite was poor. I am
glad to state that I-Iood’s Sarsaparilla has
completely cured her of all her ailments.”
