man well acquainted with Queen
Charlottc's Island, who goes in an
official capacity for the Canadian
Indian Department. The whole de
tails of the work are left to Mr.. Swan;
ample funds are placed at his dispo-
sal, TO prosecute the work successful
iy, and he Is not hampered by in
structions of any hnd-the Depart
ment having every confidence in his
ability to DO the country valuable
service in his present capacity. He
takes with him two tents and a com
plete camp outfit, and will take an
Indian servant from Victoria. On
his arrival at the islands he will trav-
el around in canoes. It IS Il high
compliment to the Judge that his
present appointment was not obtain
ed by OF through any political in
fuence, but in recognition OF his pc
culiar fitness for the work to be done.

is thought that the vicinity Of Cloak
Bay, the immediate objectiye point,

any white person since Aarehand
was there last in 1791. The Judge
has for years interested himself in a
pet theory that the Indians Of the
northwest coast have an origin i'll
common with the ancient sun wOr-
shippers, of Mexico. This has been
revived by an article recently pub
ished in The Century, descriptive of
travels among the Zuni Indians
some OF the illustrations IN which are
recognized by Haidai Indians as rep
resenting idol worship and sGpersti-
tions known to their race. It is well
known that these northern Indians
are vastly superior to their southern
cousins in size, intelligence and APP
pearance. 1t is thought that they
are remnants of once powerful and
cultivated people whose knqwledge
of many arts and sciences entitled
them to great importance. Certain
it is that late discoveries of science
have seriously interfered with long
settled notions of Church theorist.
and other philosophers. We shal
await the result of the proposed

Death of J. P. Lively.

j. P. Lively, one Of our best and
most highly respected citizens, died at
his home in this place on Sunday night,
Aug. -, 1888. Mr.. Lively was sixty
years Of age. He had been in feeble
health for long time, and for several
months confined almost entirely to his
room, but Notwithstanding his much
suffering he bore it all cheerfully and
with great christian fortitude. He had
been in active business at this place
for many years, engaged in the sale
and manufacture of furniture and the
undertaker's business. He was an
honorable, honest, upright man, a pious
christian, being a member of the
Christian church, of which he had been
a consistent member for many years.
AT 5 o'clock Monday evening the 18th,
his remains were followed to the new
cemetery by a large concourse of
friends, and after the service, conducted
by elder II. L. Walling, were deposi-
ted in their last resting place. In res
pect to the deceased all the business
houses were closed during the funeral
service. The bereaved family have
the sympathy of the entire community.

WOMAN.
HER HEALTH AND LIFE

Depend more on the regularity of her
menstrual functions than to all other causes
combined. An actual or a living death is
the inevitable result of arrangement of a
function which makes woman what she is
in every respect, and especially in her men,
tai and bodily constitution. Hence, imme-
date relief from such arrangements is the
only safeguard against wreck and ruin. In
all cases of stoppage, delay. or other irregu-
larities of the "courses," DR.. j. Bradfeld's
