CATHOLIC ACTION AT MONTREAL.-At a
meeting of presidents and officers of Irish
Catholic societies of Montreal last night the
following is one of the series Of resolutions
passed: "That we make an earnest appeal to
our cO-natiOnalists and cO-religiOnlsts with
whom the sOemnitfes of the burial of the
dead is ever a matter OF religious respect, to
abstain on the occasion of the funeral OF the
deceased T. l.. Hackett tomorrow from dis-
play or demonstration that could be inter-
preted into opposition to the sacred rite; that
we shall hold up to public execration the
man or men SO regardless of national honor
as to imperil the national character by an
unseemly act or word at such time and amid
such surroundings"
Peter Mccullough, Catholic, assaulted on
Craig street at a. m. by two French Cana
dams, says a. the time of the attack two
shots were fired from a house opposite, one
hitting him behind the ear. The surgeon
Thinks the wound was inflicted by a blunt
instrument.
Two hundred and fifty Oraugemen arrived
tonight from Ottawa.

- SCHENCK'S SEA WEED TONIC.

Wy
In the atmosphere experienced here during the
summer months, the lethargy produced by the heat
takes vay the desire for wholesome food, and fire.
quent Preparations reduce bodily energy, particu
larry those suffering from the effects of facilitating
diseases In order to keep natural heathful actiy
ity If the system must resort to artificial
For this purpose Schencks Sea Weed Tonic is very
efectual A few doses will create appetite and
give fresh yigOr to the ated body. For dyspep
STA, IT is invaluable. Many eminent physicians have
doubted whether dyspepsia be permanently
cured by the drugs which generally employe
that purpose. The Sea Weed Tonic in its nature is
totally different from such drugs 1t contains no cor
rosve minerals acds in fact it assists the regular
operations Of nature, and supplies her deficiencies
The tonic in its nature much bles the gastric
juice that it is almost identical with that fluid. The
gastric Juice is the natur al solvent hich in healthy
condition Of the body the food to be digested
and when this juice not excreted in sufficient guam
titles indigestion, with all its distressing symptoms
follow. The Sea Weed Tonic performs the duty of
the gastric juice when the latter is deficient.
