a large force of street hands was
at work all last night on Princess
street between Front and Secon pre-

The very hard condition of the street

have also taken longer than was at
first estimated, so that !. is not prob
able that Superintendent Key, who is
directing the placing of the pavement
can begin the work on Princess street
before tomorrow morning. 1t Is posi-

The pavement is to be placed from
Front to Second streets. extending TO
the east side Of Second street and TO a
point beyond the crossing line on both

to the section of Market street recently
paved with vitrified brick is to roll 1t
down with the small horsepower

The ancients believed that rheuma-
tism was the work Of a demon within
a man. Any one who has had an at
tack of sciatic or inf1ammatory rheu-
matism will agree that the infliction is
demoniac enough to warrant the be-
lief. It has been claimed that
Chamberlain's Pain Balm would cast
out demons, but it will cure rheuma-
tism, and hundreds bear testimony to
the truth Of this statement. One appli-
cation relieves the pain. and this quick
relief which it affords is alone worth
many times it's cost. For sale by Rob't
