coming kidney, liver and bladder trou-
bles.
A sworn statement of purity is with

Root.
If you need a medicine, you should have
the best.
If you are already convinced that

sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Ady.

FAMOUS FOR BEAUTY.

One Of the Oldest Of Canadian cities,
Halifax also is one of the most pic
turesque. 1t has two principal beau
ty spots, Point Pleasant park and
the Public Gardens. The first lies
between the North Arm, a ford three
miles long, and the harbor proper.
The North Arm is the cruising basin
for canoes and pleasure craft of small
size.
Two hundred acres OF land make
up Point Pleasant park, and the woods
have been left in a wild state. The
roads are splendid. They were built
for military purposes. The park has
a pair Of magnificent iron gates given
to the city by Sir William Young, a
former chief justice Of the province.
They are set at the head OF Young
venue m Of the principal roads Of
the park.

ONCE PROUD HALIFAX
NOW getty OF DEAD"
Loss of Life Enormous, and
Property DESTROYED Worth
Millions of Dollars.
DISASTER CAUSED BY ERROR
Mistake In Signals Resulted in Steam
ship Collision Which Wrought
Havoe-City Has Had a Long
and Interesting Record.

Halifax, N. s., wrecked by an ex-
ploding munitions ship, is a city Of
dead, caused by the explosion and
FIRE which followed the collision in
Halifax harbor between the Mont
Blanc, a munitions-laden French ship,
and the limo, loaded with supplies
for the Belgian relief commission.
Virtually all the north end of the
city was laid waste and the property
damage will run far into the mill
lions.
The pilot of the Mont Blanc states
that the collision was due to a mistake
IN signals during the storm that was
raging.
Outside the toll of life claimed on
land and sea by the great war, the
catastrophe at Halifax is by far the
greatest disaster in many years.
Numerous explosions have occurred
in mupition plants in this country and
Europe, but the Halifax disaster is the
most tragic explosion, in the number
of lives lost, in the last quarter CEN
fury. Indeed, few catastrOphes of any
nature have probably exceeded it in
the number of dead.
Pilot Frank Mackie of the Mont
Blanc declared hat the collision re-
suited from a confusion of whistles
sounded by the Iona, causing a col
lision with the Mont Blanc, which ar
rived at a United States Atlantic port
on November o, laden with 5000 tons
Of munitions for France. She was In
bound from New York when she was
rammed by the Belgian relief ship
Iona.
Flames Caught 5enzlne.
The impact set fire to a deck load
of benzine on the French ship and the
flames quickly communicated with the
munitions, resulting in a practical
-bombardment of the city.
The zone Of destruction in Halifax
Itself extended from the North street
railway station as far north as Afric-
Vile to Bedford basin and covered I'M
area OF about two square miles in the
section known as Richmond. The
buildings which were not demolished
by the force Of the terrific explosion
were destroyed by the fire which fol-
lowed.
District Densely Populated.
The devastated district was the old
er part Of Halifax and thickly pOpu-
lated. 1t contained, in addition to
Citadel hill, many churches and
schools, the railway station, govern
ment dockyard, Wellington barracks,

Lord Edward CORVALLIS and 2,576
