Other Worlds Than Ours.

There seems to be no reason TO doubt that
in common with other suns, the planet Sir
ius has his system of planets circling round
him after the manner of our own sun and
what a system Vast as ours appears, it is
dwarfed into insignifcanee Compared with
u system whose ruling orb is 5000 times
larger than that which does duty for us.
There seems, also, no reason to doubt that
the planets are intended to be the abode of
life it may be that at the present moment
none ofthem present any signs of life, but /
think we may safely infer without improba-
bility that each one of these worlds has
destined period of its development, during
which, life. similar to, that which now pre-
walls on our planet, would be in existence.
What world such one would be, in size,
perhaps not inferior 10 that OF our sun, him
self million times larger than our earth and
it may be that as this Sirius world is 80 vast
ly superior to ours in size, its Inhabitants
would be on scale in proportion to its di-
mensons race of beings of such intellect
and civilization compared with whom we
are but savages.

CATARRH.
Catarrh Deafness-Hay Fever-A New Home
Treatment.

Treatment.
Sufferers are not generally aware that these dis
eases are contagious, or that they are due to the
presence of living parasites in the lining membrane
OF the nose and eustachirn tubes. Microscopic re-
search. however has proved this to be a fact, and
the result of this discovery is that simple remedy
has been formulated whereby catarrh, catarrhal
deafness and hay fever are permanently cured in
from one to three simple applications made at
home by the patient once In two weeks.
N. B.-This treatment is not q snuff or an oint-
ment; both have been discarded by reputable ply
sicans as injurious. A pamphlet explaining this
new treatment Is sent free on receipt of stamp to
pay postage, by A. H. Dixon, & Son, 337 and 339
West King street, Toronto, Canada. -Christidn Ad-
