relief. One trial will prove our state
ment. Price only soc. for large bottle.

CIGARS IN FOREIGN CITIES.
Some of the Things nm American
Learns in Travelling Abroad.

George AIDE in Chicago Record.
This is wonderful CITY," was the ORR
| ginal observation made to the American
who was overtaken at the very portals
of st. Peters, in Rome.
1.-THE city is all right" said he. "but
where can l get good cigar?''
On the gloomy summit of Vesuvius.
with the lowering smoke and vapor curl
ing above and a matchless panorama OF
hills, fields, crescent city, and blue Med-
terranean spread out below, a college
youth threw away a cigarette and said:
''Well, those things will cure me of the
habit if anything will"
Once during the gallon through Suitzer

snow-eapped peaks, that stand guard

bacco."
A. great many things seen and heard
during hasty jaunt through several
countries are forgotten or lost in the foe
of tumbled impressions by the time one
boards steamer to come home, but there
is no difficulty in remembering that nearly
every American grumbled about the quail
ity of European tobacco.
One Chicago man in London insisted
that the tobacconists, in purchasing their
Havana cigars, were guided by the pic
toral value of the pictures on the boxes
He said that the boxes were the hand
soonest and the cigars tht poorest he had
ever found.
Then he told this story.
He said he went into the shop of a to-
bacconist and inquired for Key West CT
gars.
Certainly, sir; at once. sir" replied the
James" placed the ladder agafnst the
high shelves and brought down two dusty
boxes.
This is excellent stock. SIR said the
tobacconist. I've had these on hand two
years"
The English tobacconist will invariably
hand out dry cigar unless the customer
makes a special request for something
fresh.
Within the last two years some Of the
shops have made an effort to push" he
Indian cigars.
They claim that Britain's colony pro-
duces tobacco of as fine favor as anv
grown in Cuba. The Indian cigars have
been judiciously praised in the English
newspapers. and number of distineiiish-
ed gentlemen holding prominent positions
in the government have allowed their
names to be signed to testimonials THE
cigars from India are considerably chean-
er than those imported from Havana or
the United States.
They may be just as good but any one
who had become accustomed to Havana
cigars wouldn't think so. They have 4
flavor OF their own and would appeal only
to a cultivated taste.

Island was reached, where she went on
the beach, and now lies a total wreck.
The crew, who were saved by some fisher
men, after being in the rigging twenty
hours, say that soon after being cast off
by the Africa the latter vessel, which had
been rolling heavily, suddenly disappeared
and they think she went down, with all
on board.
The names of the officers and crew of
the Africa are: Capt. H. p. Larson, Tor
onto; William Anderson, mate, owen
Sound; IIatt Haze, chief engineer, Tor
onto; Ed. Forest second engineer, Tor
Onto William Mann, wheelsman, Toronto;
John King, Oakville, Ont; Miss Lee, cook,
Toronto; two firemen and two deck hands,
names unknown. The Africas life boat
and life preservers have been picked up on
Loyal Island.
