This amount does not include the furâ€" nishings nccessary for an institution of this kind. The plans were considered at _ conâ€" giderable Jengih by the committce. One of the strongest arguments against their adoption was the fact that the proposed hospital provided about the same accommodation _ as the General Hospital, and at the same time would not be used by more than two or three patients _ at _ a time unless there was an â€" epidemic, which is a rare occurrence in _ Bérâ€" Hn. It is not proposed to allow the matter to drop, but rather it is exâ€" pected that the matter will be again taken up in the spring at the latest, with a view to getting accommodaâ€" tion for scarlet fever, diphtheria and smallpox cases.

Absalom _ Merner, son of the late Serator Merncr, is suing Valentine Ratz, a member at present of th: Scnate, for $1,400, which he alleges he earned in securing Senator Ratz‘ appointiment to the Scnate. "Lhe remarkable thing is that Mr. Merner is a Conscrvative, and that he should bave â€"any influence in seâ€" curing the appointment of a Literâ€" al Senator is surprising. Got Father to Resign.

He became bankrupt on Juâ€" ly 15th, 1908, thereby losing _ his Senatorship anyway. Another remarkable feature of it is that tho plaintiff alleges that _ an agroement was cntered into whereby the Senator‘s widow was to receive $1,000 annually so long as she _ or Senator Ratz lives. A Senator‘s inâ€" demn‘ty being only $2,500° a year, the sum to be paid to the widow was a large one.

It is known that Senator Ratz will make a pointâ€"blank derial of Mr. Mernet‘s statements. He thinks . the case may never be prosecut:d. Notbing in the Story. s Senator Ratz was called up _ by longâ€"distance telephone in regard _ to the claims of Mr. Merncr.

Chronic sores which cause trouble by ‘"breaking open," may be cured by Zamâ€"Buk, as well as recent â€"inâ€" juries and ~disceases. If â€" you suffer from some old soreâ€"hidden, perhaps, but none the less painful for thatâ€" don‘t dally, apply Nature‘s healing esscnees as provided in Zamâ€"Buk. Mrs I. E. Ashton, of J11 Vickers strect, Fort William, tells how valuable Zam Buk is as a family balm. She says: â€""We first used Zamâ€"Buk for â€" cuts and bruises, etc., and found it so satâ€" isfactory that my husband started usâ€" Ing it for a chronic sore. For a long time he had been bothered with an old sore on his leg, and had + used various preparations, yet nothing had permanently cured it. He began applyâ€" ing Zamâ€"Buk balm, and was very soon agrecably surprised to notice a great improvwement. The Magistrate, found prisoner guil ty and remanded hinmj vntil next Tues day for _ sentonce. Mr. Bowlby gave the girl her $142 and told her not to give any . man money _ until after she is married. CURE THAT OBSTINATE SORE "It was only a matter of a short time before Zamâ€"Buk had thoroughly cleansed the sore of all foul matter and healing commenced. It is _ now some months since the _ sore was completely closed, and there is no likelihood of it breaking out again. ‘‘Since then my baby} cighteen monâ€" ths old, has been cured of â€" eczema on the scalpâ€"by Zamâ€"Buk. This ecâ€" zema came in red pimples, and _ if rubbed or scratched, formed _ into sores. The child was very} fretful from the irritation of the scalp, but whenever Zamâ€"Buk was applied _ it seemed to bring the greatest <rcliel. Frequent applications were effective in clearing all traces of the disease from, the baby‘s scalp in a â€" short pace of time. I feelâ€" it my duty to give the credit where due, and I cheerfully recommend Zamâ€"Buk to all sufferers from chronic sores, bad leg, or cczema." Zamâ€"Buk is nature‘s own bealing balm, being composed of pure herbal essences. It is a sure cure for ecâ€" zema, ringworm, ulcers, cuts, burns, bruises, poisoned sores, chromic wounâ€" ds, bad leg, piles, festering ‘sores. chapped hands, coldâ€"sores, frosthite, and all skin injuries and discase{ Druggists and stores everywhere sell at 50c. a box, or post free for price from Zamâ€"Buk Co., Toronto; 3 boxes $1.35.
