Sir Gilbert Parker.

Sir Gilbert Parker, novelist, journal.
list, traveller and politician, was born in
Ontario November %, 1862. the son OF
Joseph Parker, formerly an officer in
the Royal artillery, and afterwards a
captain in the Canadian militia. After
studying at the normal school at OF.
tawa, Gilbert taught for some time and
then studied for the church. He took
a course at Trinity college, Toronto
and soon afterward began the literary
work which subsequently was to win
him wide fame. In the early sos he
spent some time in Australia, engaged
in journalism. and later travelled ex.
tensively among the South Sea Is.
lands and in Northern Canada. He
then removed to England, where he
entered on a regular literary career
first writing short stories and then un.
dertaking more ambitious productions,
A few years later he took up politics

tive member OF parliament for Graves.

The Herald is not especially i'm
pressed with the early probability of a
railroad between Palestine and Rusk.
In fact, the outlook is not reassuring,
however much we may desire such a
road and Notwithstanding the fact that
such a road would be very valuable to
the communities through which IL
would pass as well as to the State gov
eminent. In fact, the Herald doubts
the wisdom at this time Of urging such
a road. We have the promise, true not
in very definite form. of a railroad
from Paris, through Palestine to the
gulf, and If such road is. in sight II
would, to our mind, be unwise to begin
an agitation for something else at this
time. We do not believe in scattering
our energies, but suggest that the town
hold itself in readiness TO meet what
ever demands are TO be made of it by
the Paris-Palestine proposition. The
Rusk road would be a very valuable
one, especially to the State interests at
Rusk, giving them a new outlet and
better connections over a great freight
territory, but looking at the PROPOSE
ton from a strictly selfish standpoint
as it effects Palestine we believe the
other proposition is of the most value
and should, therefore, have the -
call

each part of the organ in its proper
position and in harmonious relation
with every other part. will run
smoothly and perfectly; and with thor
ough Osteopathic treatment we secure
replacement of parts displaced by &C
cident or any of the various forces
incident to its surroundings and move
ment a restoration of function (health)
will supervene.
osteopathy is founded upon and sus-
tanned by the laws of nature. The or
ganic substances out of which the
body is built have marvellous recuper-
alive powers, and possess Independent
of drugs the efficacy to recover their
normal function when diseased. Part
of the work is to digest and assimilate
the foods prescribed by the normal ap-
petite. to manufacture therefrom all
the chemical compounds needed by the
body for its own growth and repair.
and to excrete that which is not so re-
quired.
This work can only be carried on by
the forces within the body, and when
interfered with can not be corrected
or artificial chemicals of the body sub
stituted for the natural ones in the
form Of drugs.
The Osteopath normalizes the chem
ical producing organs, and hence does
not require medicine to bring about a
cure.
Nearly all diseases, both acute and
chronic, that come within the range
Of the medical profession have been
treated and cured by osteopathy.
One Of the most remarkable facts in
connection with the history Of osteo-
pathy is that a large proportion of its
cases have been discarded as incur
able by the medical profession. and
yet among those so-called 'incurable
diseases" a large proportion has been
entirely cured.
1t is not claimed that osteopathy is
cure-all, nor is it pretended that it
can give life and forces where these
have already been almost lost or dis
sipated, but II is beyond dispute that
life has been made more comfortable
to thousands Of unhappy victims Of
disease and death has been robbed Of
many premature victims by the hand
Of Osteopathy.
