We are weary of striving Straining each nerve to win popular tens* ; Why do you all.when we need your assistance, Placidly neutral, sit still \u201con the fence\u201d?Women, whose lives are a gay round of pleasure, Friends to our cause, if we only succeed, Give us a tithe of your wealt i and your leisure, Strengthen out hands in this time of our need.Safe in luxurious homes, you need nothing ; Yet jou are conscious of outrage and wrong, Sympathize with us, our aims ami our actious, Yet lift not a linger to help us along.Inwardly sure of the right of our pleading, Secretly Imping success to our tight, Step from your outlook, your neutral position, bravely and openly join us outright.Fathers, whose children are lost by intempérant*! .Men, whose >oung sisters are led into sin ! Have you not utterly fai ed to protect thorn ?Is it not time now for us to begin ?Laws which you pass seem m ade to be broken ; Open saloons are wh raver we come.Just let us help to inak * laws for our children.Outside as inside the four wails of home- Why so reluctant, afraid to enroll us ?l>o you not feel you must yield it at length ?TJ p, if your intellect fails to control us, \\ ou can fall back on your \u201cphysical strength,\u2019\u2019 IF ep in your hearts you approve of our wishes ; \u2019 l is buta c|iiestioii of time, as you know.Openly come to us.sty you are with us.Now is the time to encourage us so.Are we not pleading for right and for justice ?Dare not deny it it is no pretence.Come with your il fluence, eloquence, wisdom, Come down and help us ! \u201c Come off of that fence !\u201d Notice.The monthly business meeting of the Woman\u2019s Christian Temperance Union will be held in the parlor of the Y.M.C.A.building ou Friday, the thh instant, at 4 o\u2019clock p.in.Prohibition was lost in Oregon by a small majority.The prohibition vote of New York foots up nearly 50,000.Fifteen counties in Florida have voted under local option law, and prohibition has carried in twelve of them.A gentleman has just showed a 41 bill drawn from a Chicago bank, on w hich was written, \u201cTen drinks.Last of an even 4100,000.Robert Leslie,\u201d A temperance cafe has been opened in mtreaux, Switzerland, close to the resort of boatmen, coachmen and others.Temperance is making rapid progress in Switzerland.Whiskey Adulteration.\u2014 It is stated that seventy-tive thousand gallons of analine dye were shipped into California in 1880, and were used in adulterating the wines made in the state.The Scott Act campaign has commenced in Halton.It will be well if the people of the county make their vote so decisive this time that Mr.Mowat shall no longer have reason to think public opinion is unfavorable to the Act.The petition being prepared by the temperance women of England, for presentation to the Queen, asking that the bar-rooms be closed, on Sunday, already weighs several hundred pounds, and contains nearly a million signatures.A series of meetings is being held in Scotland to protest against the system of licensed vice in India and the Colonies.Mrs.Josephine Butler, the great apostle of Social Purity, is one of a number of distinguished speakers present.There is a marked difference between the W.C.T.Unions in China and Japan.The officers and workers in the former are American missionaries, while in the latter, the native women take full control preside, lecture, write and _ ' \u2019 \u2019 leaflets, and carry on the entire work successfully.Well done, Stanstead Signal ! Such a breezy campaign sheet will render effective service during the Scott Act campaign.Concerning agricultural exhibitions it says with truth ; \u201cThe agricultural exhibitions at Stanstead Plain, Coaticook and Ayer\u2019s Flat, were remarkable for the sobriety which characterized them.At the county exhibitions during the years when licensed liguorwas retailed, disorderly scenes were always anticipated and never failed to manifest themselves.This fall only one or two cases of intoxication were noticed, and both at Coaticook and Ayer\u2019s Flat the liquor seller was captured hy Alliance officers.So much for the Scott Act.At Sherbrooke liquor was freely sold at two establishments on the exhibition grounds.Chief of Police Davidson stated to the rejiorter of a Montreal paper that these stands occasioned the ]M>lice considerable work and that on several evenings the lock-up had been fille«l with rare-takers more or less intoxicated.Drunken men abounded on the streets of Sherbrooke ; the hotel bar rooms were crowded and the revels of the riotous drunkards rang through the buildings.it was a notorious fact that young men from various parts of Stanstead county, who are uniformly sober when at home, returned from Sherbrooke intoxicated, many of them behaving in the moat disgraceful manner on the trains.In the words of a prominent Scott Act supporter, \u201cSherbrooke is a curse to Coaticook !\u201d Why is this ?Simply because there is no Scott Act at Sherbrooke.Those who would choose that the wheel of revolution turn backwards and the Stanstead county fairs become scenes of shame such as those witnessed at Sherbrooke, should speak disparagingly of the Scott Act.\u201d This is not very complimentary to Sherbrooke agricultural exhibitions, but it enables us to \u201csee ourselves as others see us.\u201d ________________\tI If you are billioua or have indigestion sick headache or dizziness, try Baxter\u2019s Mandrake Bitters, used instead of pills; they cure

is all that any medicine ran do.In pulmonary affections, such as Colds, Bron-chjtis, and Consumption, the mucous membrane first becomes intiained, then accumulations form in tbe air-cells of the lungs, followed by tubercles, and, finally, destruction of tbe tissue.It is plain, therefore, that, until the backing cough is relieved, the bronchial tubes cau have no opportunity to heal.Ayer\u2019s Cherry Pectoral Soothes and Heals the iutlamed membrane, arrests the wasting process, and leaves no injurious results.This is why it is more highly esteuieed than any other pulmonary specific.L.D.Bixby, of Bartonsville, Vt., writes: \u201cFour years ago I took a severe cold, which was followed by a terrible cough.I was very sick, and confined to my bed about four months.My physician finally said I was in consumption, and that he could not help me.One of my neighbors advised me to try Ayer\u2019s Cherry Pectoral.I did so, and before I had taken half a bottle was able to go out.By the time I had finished the bottle I was well, and have remained so ever since.\u201d Alonzo P.Daggett, of Smyrna Mills, Mo., writes: \u201c Six years ago, I was a traveling salesman, aud at that time was suffering with Lung Trouble.For months I was unable to rest nights.I could seldom lie down, had frequent choking spells, and was often compelled to seek the open air for relief, f was induced to try Ayer\u2019s Cherry Pectoral, which helped me.Its continued use lias entirely cured me, and, I believe, saved my life.\u201d 3Poetvi).NEW STORE \u2014AT\u2014 Waterville.Th* undersigned

ARMY \u201d PARADF-S.The ancient Capital is having another agitation over the \u201c Salvation Army \u201d question which threatens to develop into serious trouble unless cooler counsels prevail.The trouble has a tendency to a war of races, the English speaking community siding with the defenceless females of the \u201cArmy \u201d and the French students opposing.The streets have been paraded nightly by large numbers of men, evidently well organised, but fortunately the police have been able to deal with them thus far, and the authorities are determined to maintain older.The following despatch shows, however, that there is a feeling of alarm pervading the city : \u201cQuebec, November 29.\u2014The outlook for to-morrow night at present is very dark.If the Salvation Army persists in its determination to parade many people believe there will be blood shed.The opponents of the army had meetings on the Terrace and in Jacques Cartier square last night, at which very violent speeches were made, and they claim to be able to bring together a vast crowd to prevent the army parading.The excitement over the matter was increased to night by unconfirmed, and probably false rumors that B Battery and the Eighth Royals had been ordered to hold themselves in readiness, and that friends of the Salvationists in the West were coming here to protect them.The courts are preparing warrants for the arrest of parties implicated in the late disturbances.Some prominent citizens are among the batch.A test case against the army will also be tried.L\u2019Evénement says to-night that it is time that the Salvation Army was put down, and asks can the occupying of public streets and business be withstood any longer.It calls upon the mayor to take immediate steps to stop the cause of the trouble.The amount of damage done to trade is incalculable, almost every wholesaler complaining of cnlcellation of orders.\u201d Mr.David\u2019s Protest.L\u2019Electeur, to-day, publishes a noble letter from Mr.L.O.David, M.P.P.for Montreal-East, protesting the brutality of the French Canadians of Quebec towards the Salvation Army as opposed to the spirit of Christianity and destructive of Quebec\u2019s reputation and interests, and urging moderation and tolerance on their part, because the honor of Quebec not only concerns itself, but the whole nationality of which it was the cradle.L\u2019Electeur introduces the communication with the remark that whatever prejudices the patriotic writer who immortalized thi'memory of the patriots of 1837 may run counter to, his frank language will be received with respect even by those who do not share his views.The tea meeting at the Congregational Church was held on Wednesday evening, Nov 23rd, John McIntosh Esq., M.P.P.in the

ONLY COPY AVAILABLE HOW BEN BUTLER GOT RICH.TOUSO HEN OF TO-DAY MAY DO LIKEWISE if they follow advice GIVEN.General B.F.Butkr being asked for some suggestions on gaining sue* coss, stated that when he was a young lawyer, practicing in Lowell, Muss., a bank president advised him to take his little deposit and buy real estate, from which he could be deriving Eonie revenue.The general said that he had but little money and was uncertain as to his future.\u201c Never mind,\u201d said the bank pres ident, \u201c go to the next public of real estate, bid off a lot with a building of some kind on it, pay down what money you have and give your promissory notes for the balance.You will come out all right.\u201d General Butler says this advice was good.When a man has obligated himself to pay money at a certain time, it inclines him to economy.He followed the advice, and in time became the owner of several parcels of valuable real estate in Lowell.Two classes will not be likely to heed such advice\u2014the improvident and the over cautious.The latter will be apt to say: \u201cIt would be all right but for those dreadful promissory notes.They are always running on and if a man falls sick they do not wait for him to get well.\u201d There is this danger, of course, but one can make no bunintss venture without some tisk, and with the knowledge acquired by recent investigations of the cause of the most ordinary ailments, and the means of cure, one runs little risk from that source.It is now known that most of the common ailments have their origin in deranged kidneys.They are the chief blood puritiers of the system and when disordered a breaking down somewhere is soon inevitable, because the poison, which in their healthy condition is eliminated, is carried through the entire system.Put them in order and health returns.C.D.Dewey, a successful man, president of the Johnston Harvester Company, Batavia, N.Y., gives his experience as follows: In 1882 my health was failing, my head pained mo constantly, my appetite was uncertain, 1 could not sleep soundly.I attributed this to the extreme pressure of business cares, but I grew worse, and tinally was confined to ,my bed for two months.It seemed as though I would \u201cnever recover\u201d my former health.Coder the aid of stimulants I gradually gained strength, so that in a few months I was able to attend to business, but I could walk only with the assistance of a cane, and then in a slow and unsteady manner.I continued somewhat in the same condition until February last, when I nsed Warner\u2019s safe cure.It has cured me.I consider it a valuable remedy and can highly recommend it.Young men have but to use ordinary prudence, and when any derangement occurs if they use the same means as did this successful business man, they may feel a constant assurance of their ability to carry to successful conclusion all ordinary business projects, including the care of their promissory -OnteE when due.The Biggest Show on Earth Burnt \u2014Fired by an Incendiary.Bridgeport, Conn., November 21.\u2014 The main building of Barnum\u2019s circus, winter quarters, was destroyed by tire last night.Three elephants, Alice, Sampson and the white elephant, together with all the other animals, except a rhinoceros, one lion and a white polar bear, perished.The loss will be heavy.The tirrt was undoubtedly of incendiary origin, and was discovered soon after ten o\u2019clock by one of the watch- r____ men as he was coming down the out- auction \u2019 s\u2018^e stairs of the paint shop, which is \u201c near the burned building.When nearly at the foot of the stairs the watchman was struck by some one and knocked down.In falling his head was quite badly cut.Immediately after he was attacked the tire burst out and illuminated the horizon for miles around.Two alarms were given which called out the entire lire department, but so rapidly did the liâmes spread that the firemen could do nothing further than save the adjoining buildings, the cars and the wagons.The large rhinoceros made his escape through a window, but is so badly burned that he will die.The white elephant came as far as the door of the building, but would go no further and turned back into the flames Alice and Samson made an attempt to escape.One large lion ran out into the yard, and then the spectators fled in all directions.This lion took refuge behind a car, and while there had several shots tired into his body by a policeman.This partially disabled him, and then his keeper succeeded in caging him.Many of the manageiie and museum curiosities were in the burned building, and they were destroyed.The elephants saved were driven to a place of security, and under the circumstances proved very tractable.One of the engines, on the way to the tire, met a large elephant on the street, and it was with great difficulty that the driver could retain control of his horses.The elephant refused to move, and then the driver was obliged to turn around and get to the tire by another street.There was a great panic among the people on the streets, and they tumbled and trampled over each other in their mad haste to get out of the way and reach a place of safety.At 12 o\u2019clock most of the elephants had been corralled.The rhinoceros was got out of the building, but burned and cut both by getting out of the cage and by the crowd, who seemed possessed to kill all the animals which came out of the building.Only the cat animals were burned.The monkeys and others were in other buildings.Many of the idols which are exhibited with the show were also destroyed.The cries of the burning animals were heartrending.Through the flames could be seen the tigers, leopards and other cat animals dashing frantically about their cages and tinally succumbing to the smoke and flame.The elephants rushed madly about the streets lashing their burned and torn sides with their trunks and scattering the crowds in all directions.The birds were all in New York at Central Park.Havoyou a Pain anywhere about you ?USE PERRY DAVIS* \u201c PAIN KILLER \u201d and Gst Instant Relief.BEWARE OF IMITATIONS.25 Cts.Per Bottle.SOOTHING, CLEANSING,

Wonder\u201d which sets forth with singular fulness and brevity what is going o be in Wide Awake for a year ahead.The primer is not very long.The little pages are easy to read.But, it holds such wealth of learning and entertainment, you wonder how so much can be got into a dozen months ; and yet you read on the title page that the half is not told.It is a wonder ! Wide Awake is a veritable library, changing from month to month and from year to year, and always growing better apparently.But what we can\u2019t understand is how they can put so much money in to it and pay so much for getting subscribers.The Holiday number contains the Premium List of 32 pages.They give a boy or girl who gets subscribers almost as much in his choice of two or three hundred things as the money he sends amounts to ! And the things are such as people want; a good many of them new to most of us.Even the Premium List is good reading.Where the profit comes from out of $2.40 a year is what we can\u2019t make out; but that is none of our business.Send for the primer to D.Lithrop Company, Boston.\ttflli WEEKLY EXAMINER.SHERBROOKE.P.Q., FRIDAY.DEC.2.1887.Martyrs to Headache Hall\u2019s Vegetable Sicilian Hair Re-newer imparts a tine gloss and fresh ness to the hair, and is highly recom mended by physicians, clergymen and scientists as a preparation accomplishing wonderful results.It is a certain remedy for removing dandruf, making the scalp white and clean, and restoring gray hair to ita natural color.tf A most clever bit of dialogue is \u201c Five O\u2019clock Tea,\u201d by William D.Howells, to appear in the Christmas Number of Harper\u2019s Magazine.It is a kind of thing which this popular writer is almost preternaturally bright in doing.The scene of the farce is supposed to antedate the similar piece of writing, \u201cThe Mouse-Trap,\u201d which so amused every one who read the Ihtrper's for December, 188(5.Aciu Aducvtlscmcnta 1888.Harper\u2019s Weeliljy ILLUSTRATED.Harper's Weekly has a well-established place as the leading illustrated newspaper in America.The fairness of its editorial com raents on current politics has earned for it the respect and confidence of all impartial readers, and the variety and excellence of its literary contents, which include serial and short stories by the best and mO\"t popular writers, fit it for the perusal of people of the widest range of tastes and pursuits.Supplements are frequent ly provided, and no expense is spared to bring the highest order of artistic ability U bear upon the illustration of the changeful phases of home aud foreign history.In all its features Harper Weekj.y is admirably adapted to be a welcome guest in every household.Harper\u2019s Periodicals.Per Year: HARPER\u2019S WEEKLY.$4\t00 HARPER\u2019S MAGAZINE.01 ted Locknagar; 1st dam, Belle, by imported Kngland\u2019s Glory, lull sister to the celebrated lydesdale mare Rosy, owned by Mnith and Powell, Syracuse, N.Y , one of the best t'lydes laies in America, 2nd dam by imported Sir William Wallace ; 3rd dam, by imported Cum-Yerland , and 4th dam by irapo'ted Hard Fortune , 6th dam by imported Comet.Will make the season at my stable, No.4 Grove Street, Sherbrooke.Terms -John F Phelps,.$25.00 for the season \u201c Frank Phelps.\t16.00\t\u201c \u201c Whalebone Knox, jr 10.00 to warrant.\u201c Marquis.10.00\t\u2018\u2018 /y.T.DUSSAULT.Hieil.rooke May 13, 1887.\t39 for Infants and Children- Caatoria is so well adapted to children that !
