THE NEW TARIFF Ib all that can be desired—from" a Govtrnmsnt point of view. It is also all wrong and ill-advised —from an Opposition point of view ; and it will be generally coriced^d that trie man has not jet been born lhat e«i construct a.teriff which Kill sot provoke ridicule from the common or g-ivden observer. However, something had to ba doriOj and it was only fo fee expected) after the provincial tapr c>f the commifsioner?, that it would be pomeihing funny;1 But it was reiliy touching to follow the said : commissioners on their round and watch tha sublime self-sscrifices offered by the " successive suggestors."

For a long time I suffered from nervousness, sluggish liver, indigestion, flatulence, and most of the ailrnsnts common to those who travel a great deal. After tryine many, and all more or less worthless, remedies, I was induced to try your FRUIT SALT, and since doing so (ninemonthsago) I may indeed sny I am a new man, arid now I rieyer consider my portmanteau packed unless there is a bottle of ENO'S FRUIT SALT in it. I think it right to recommend it in every wny—hence this letter— for I ani sure it needs but to be tried, and no traveller would think of being without so great a friend in all cases of need. I encluse my card, and 3n> faithfully yom-Si Teutij, the Trossachs Hotel, Lake Kalraoe. CaUander, N. 8., 27th June 1883." CAUTION. —Legal rights are protected in every civilised country.
