KNOWLEDGE IS POWER.

This trite sa3'ing is so well grounded in the experience of mankind that proving its truth would be worth as much as the effort of proving that the sun shines. Where no knowledge exists no power is fouod. A people will not uphold, a constituency will not endorse a paper conducted on any other principle than that of disseminating knowledge. A paper is the mouthpiece of the people, and as such must speak the popular thought and sentiment truthfully, intelligently, and pertinently. A notable fact of this instance has nob only been the editorial opinions of bufe the unqualified testimonials of the trade and people, to the efficacy of that well-known remedy St. Jacob's oil. Very manyjournalstheworldover, of highest worth and standing, have editorially and otherwise employed their columns to chronicle the cures and proclaim the wonderful worth of the great pain conqueror, St. Jacob's oil, and in the history of journalism these articles have been unparalleled in dealing with actual facts, basod upon the straightforward statements of people of unimpeachable integrity.
