the duties of the Office, and from
time to time he had counted the
cash in the treasury to see that the
actual cash was there as represent
ing special deposits. This method
of counting the cash had shown that
there was deficiency of S216 which
had proved to be a road board
draft not cashed. The depart
ment had put its detail work
in good shape. The books are
now posted daily, as previously an
nounced, and trial balance is taken
at the end OF every month. He wish
ed to say that the finance department
had all its books and trial balances IN
the best of order, and it would be his
aim to keep them SO. He had request
ed the collector-general of customs to
report on regulations and charges
made in that department, asking that
no changes be made until the execu-
tive had been consulted with. He
thought the government should be as
accommodating as possible, and that
the charges should be as low as pos
sible to accommodate the public. One
meeting had been already held relat-
ing to the matter, and the executive
expected to be soon able to submit
the readjusted rules and regulations
to the councils. 1t was their desire to
let the public know that the business
of the various bureaus of the finance
department were at all points being
conducted solely in the public inter
est. The following was the result of
the compilations made by MIR. Ash

quantity of ''half-pints" of alcohol.
MIR. Smith admitted there was a
loophole in the bill, but thought the
present one was better.
Section was amended and passed.
Mr.. Emmeluth said he would be
edited to know what section s
meant.
Mr.. Allen explained what he and
the committee had understood it to
mean.
Mr.. Damon held that perfumery
was luxury and that high tax
should be imposed.
Mr.. Emmeluth said that if the bill
was passed it would have bad effects
he was surprised that the minister of
finance had endorsed the new bill.
MIR. Ena moved that section s be
stricken out.
MIR. Emmeluth seconded the mo-

MIR. Smith pointed out the main

Ena withdrew his motion.
Mr.. Allen explained the abuses

RESOLUTION.
Resolved, that the members of
Company A, now on active service at
the court house, be mustered into a
new company to be known as Com
pany F.
Mr.. Waterhouse said he wished to
ask the executive regarding the
water supply. Were they thinking
of sinking an artesian well, or could
not some other source of supply be
drawn upon. The supply at present
was so short that houses could not
draw the necessary daily supply.
The matter was an important one
upon which the public desired to be
informed.
Minister King explained that the
interior department was making ar
engagements to meet the deficiency as
rapidly as possible. The trouble
was the mains were too small to allow
of being pumped into directly; were
they eight or ten inches in size this
could be done.
Mr.. Warehouse said that the fact
the pipes were empty large portion
of the time, he thought, would allow
of pumping into them. People were
without water and something should
be done.

DEAFNESS CAN NOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they can not reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by the consti-
tutiOnal remedies Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining Of the Gus
tachian tube. When this tube gets iIifamed you
have a rumbling sound of imperfecthe hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine eases out of
ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an hlflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case
of deafness caused by catarrh) that can not be
cured by Halls Catarrh Cure Send for circulars,
