The Shakers OF. Mount Lebanon, a
community of simple, honest, God
fearing men and women, have pre-
pared the Shaker Digestive Cordial
for many years, and it is always the
same, simple, honest, curative medi-
cine that has helped to make the
Shakers the healthy, long-lived peo-
pie that they are. The Shakers
never have indigestion. This IS
partly owing to their simple mode
of life, partly to the wonderful
properties of Shaker Digestive Cor
dial. Indigestion is caused by the
stomach glands not supplying
enough digestive Juice. Shaker Di-
gestiye Cordial supplies what's
wanting. Shaker Digestive Cordial
invigoratss the stomach and all its
glands so that after awhile they
don't need help. AS evidence of
the honesty of Shaker Digestive
Cordial, the formula is printed on
every bottle. Sold by druggists,
price TO cents to sl.O0 per bottle.

Parts of 1t Suggestive of Scenes In the
Old World.
From Quebec correspondent writes to
the Paris Messenger: "Ici on parle fran
cais'' might be written ON the portals of
this quaint and picturesque old city.
Strolling in lower Quebec, you might cas-
lily fancy yourself in Amiens or Dieppe.
In the upper town there is more English,
but everywhere an amusing mixture On
the same card You will read, "Maison a
louer, House to let;" on one side of the
door Pas d'admisgion sans affaires, " and
on the other No admittanoe except on
business" This bilingual necessity causes
little extra painting and printing. Each
railway crossing must be marked like
wise, Traverse du chemin de fer, and
every official tnotice' must be printed also
in full as an Avis" The blending is
often curious, as when two adjoining shops
have their announcements one in French
and the other in English. Along the
Grarde ALE, running right across the
Plains of Abraham, you might be in Brus-
sells or Paris. only that Clifton terrace

lean travellers for whom Europe 10 too dis
taDt are advised to go to Quebec, there to
find a bit of the medieval old world trans
planted to the new, but still embalmed in
its ancient religious sentimentalism, upon
which the rush and roar of modern unrest
produce as little effect as the Atlantic
breakers on the cliffs of Cape Breton.
French continues uppermost until you
pass Montreal, but from Ottawa and
Kingston to the Pacific the legend of the
nearly universal tongue is like that of the
Paris shopkeepers, who announced ENG
fish and American spoken" In most of
tho best schools English is taught, and a
large number of the people are conversant
with both languages, English being indis-
pensable for commerce.

Death of Count NIntsr,.

Washington Aug. IS. A telegram
was received at the Japanese legation
yesterday announcing the death of
Count Mutsu, ex-minister of foreign
affairs and Japanese minister to the
United States in 1883. The news was
not at all unexpected, as the count has
been i'll with lung trouble for a long
time. and was compelled by i'll health
to resign his Office about a year ago.
Count Mutsu was one of the most dis
tinguished men in the history of the
new Japanese movement, and, with the
Marquis Ito, moulded the policy of the
modern empire and successfully car
ried the country through the crisis of
the Chinese war.

Will Fight TN COURT.
Harbor Commissioners and the
Fair Estate in Legal
ARRAY.
1t will Probably Be Years Before the
Case Comes to Final
Issue.

1t is just possible that experts on the
action OF sea waves, if any exist, will have
to be called into the controversy between
the Harbor Commissioners and the Fair
estate. The question row seems to be,
Will the action of the waves tend to fill up
the channel which the Pacific Gas Com
pany is anxious to keep open, or will it
tear down the work which has already
been done by Warren & MaIley for the
Fair estate?
The Harbor Commissioners held meet
ing Monday with Governor Budd and
the various attorneys in the case present.
The injun ction which was placed on the
board by the representatives. of the Fair
estate has tended to make the board a
party TO the suit.
AT the opening of the meeting Governor
Bucd expressed his feelings in the m after
he stated that the courts were the
mediums through which actions should
be settled, and stated his objection to the
high handed manner in which the prop
erty had been protected, as the piles on
the property had been ordered TO be
emoved by order of the Attorney
General, and shotguns and rifles had been
brought into service to prevent the order
being carried out. Delay seems to be the
only thing which is certain in the case.
The Fair estate contends that the waves
washing in would carry away the work
which had cost it $500 600, and the
opposing party took the stand that the
action of the waves coming in was more
forcible than when they receded and con-
