Why Doubt.

A steamship company. knowing that
success begets confidence, may advertise
that they have never lost passenger or
met with serious delay, and no one guess
tiOns the statement. But il a physician,
after many years Of investigation, announ-
ces the discovery of remedy that posi-
lively cures certain forms of disease, and
backs up his statements by iudisputable
evidence. his word is doubted, and his
motives questioned Is not such prejudice
unreasonable? There are those afflicted
with coughs, colds, consumption, liver
complaint, or some affection of the blood
that still refuse to use Dr. PIerce's Golden
Medical Discovery, notwithstanding they
have witnessed its efficacy in others SINH
larly affected. They ''have no confidence
IN advertised medicines" Does the guide
board at the corners of country road,
which advertises the way to go, shake
your confidence, and create distrust in the
route? Do you refuse to patronize rail-
roads that advertise their time tables?
Then why doubt the truths published con

lez square tonight to uphold the stand
taken by Mayor Beaudry in reference to
the Orange procession. The meeting was
only called late 10 the evening, when it be-
came known that power was taken out of
the Mayors hands. Strong addresses
were delivered in support of the position
taken by His Worship, and resolutions 10
conformity with the speeches were passed
with great enthusiasm. The Mayors
course at the Magistrates meeting was
eulogised and thoroughly indorsed. The
meeting pledged itself to support the
Mayor under all circumstances, and the
excitement when the speakers referred to
the Orange proceedings waxed into
frenzy.
It was finally arranged to await the
Mayors return from Ottawa tonight and

meut will be made at another open cir as
sembly tomorrow evening. These de-

scHENcK's SEA WEED TONIC.

In the atmosphere experienced here during the
summer months, the lethaIgy produced by the heat
takes away the desire for wholesome food, and
frequent perspirations reduce bodily energy, par
icularly those suffering from the effects of debi
ting diseases. In order TO keep q natural health
full activity of the system must resort to artli-
cial means. For this purpose Schenck's Sea Weed
Tonic is very effectual. few doses will create an
appetite and give fresh vigor to the enervaed body.
For dyspepsia, 1t is invaluable. Many eminent
physicians have doubted whether dyspepsia can be
permanently cured by the drugs which are gener-
ally employed for that purpose. The Sea Weed
Tonic in its nature is totally different from such
drugs. 1t contairs corrosive minerals acids
in fact 1t assists the regular operations of nature
and supplies her deficiencies. The tonic in its
ture much resembles the gastric juice that it is
almost identical with that fluid. The gastric juice
is the natural solvent which, in healthy condition
Of the body causes the food to be digested; and
when this juice is not excreted in sufficient quaint
ties Indigestion, with all its distressing symptoms
follow The Sea Weed Tonic performs the duty
of the gastric juice when the latter is deficient
