'  A public meeting has been promised at which each of the different candidates will give an expression of his ideas, and tbe  question of further economy is to  be discussed.  It is expected that a reduction  of salaries will be proposed,  though we believe that it ia the  popular opinion that none of the  salaries, are at all extravagant,  add that if any are to teel the  edge uf the pruning knife such a  procedure should commence with  the Councillors. *  The loss of the monetary consideration paid to the Aldermen  would have no tendency to change  the personnel of that body, thoujrb  it is'ielt that the time occupied  in the discharge of .his duties by  the Mayor should not go altogether unrewarded.

JANUARYS,  1909  Practically all tbe easily avai'-  able timber on ihe B.C. coast is  in the hands of big millowners  and speculators who are holding-  the properties at prices which are  prohibitive to the operations of  loggers and small millmen.  The latter contend that the  Act rrp.ecting- the sale of govern-  ment timber does not contemplate  the holding of that timber for  speculative purposes and will ask  the government for relief at.the  coming session of the legislature.  be exhausted in 40 years, but the  iron fields of B.C. will furnish  the material for steel rails and  battleships before Uncle Sam has  used all his.  The U.S. battleship, Oregon,  was made from British Columbia  iron.  Now that Signor Castro, the  late President of Venezuela, has  been superceded the trouble witb  Holland has been settled.  Although the international situation in Europe still looks serious the vear 1909 will probably  represent an era of peaceful commercial activity.  Canada is to be congratulated  on entering tbe New Year without a single industrial dispute.  No other one thing could contribute more to the prosperity of  the couutry, and it appears that  the Federal legislation bearing  on the matter is producing desirable results.  The sentence of Abraham Rueff  to 14 years in prison nas been received with satisfaction by the  press of the U.S. and it is probable that Francis J. Heney will  prosecute tbe Pittsburg officials.

Surely you  believe that, nature provides somewhere, a cure for all nature's ills!  Zam-Buk is tbe refined and concentrated essences of healing herbs���nature's  balm. Theoretically it should be good. Analysts and doctors agree  on this. Practically as well as theoretically it. is good. Thousands  of people in four continents bear testimony.   Read these cases :���  Mrs. Wm. Hughes, of 253, llccheli-ta Sutei, lUchelaga, Montreal, says :���"I  suffered from blind, itching, and protruding piles for tears*. Sometimes th'ey were  so bad that I could hardly bear to move ab- ut. 'lhe ir.flnrimiHtion, the burrjin/-  smarting pain, the throbbing, the aching, the over-] ow-riug feelings of dultiess and  dark despair which this ailment brings, the shooting spa*-ins of aj:ony���- all were so  terrible that only MifFerers from this awful ailment can understand ! "  Bad as this case was, Zim-Buk triumphed, nnd Mrs. Huglies suffers no longer.  Mrs. E. Boxail, ul Scott Struct, St. '1 honia--,, m\ s :���" hi r months wiiliout cessation I endured great pain from bleeding piles. F. r as many nic.n'hs I tried (.veiylhing-  which 1 thought would give me case, but in tht- end uis* iriitd and s:ill suffering I  gave in."   . . ?  Then it whs she heard of Zam-Rulc. and she a<Ms :���" Altliough I feared Zam-Pyk  would be like the ordinary leene. its ���*u-*eliss��� I t,m glad itwas not. It soon proved itself  to be very different. It rapidiy y-ivi: me relief, and alitr n tin e cuiedn e completely.  1 would like to lit all suffsrer.-i from piles kiiuw v.hat a grai.d thing Zam-Buk is."  Mr. Thos. Carr, of Ellesmt-re Strcel, Runcorn, tays :���" I firtt began to suffer from  piles through sitting on dump grass one s-ummer, arid for .years I endured agony from  this terrible complaint. Sometimes I would be bedri-idem' for a>;h ng as a month at a  Atrelch. Yet, to-day, I never MHTur from piles I Zam-Buk cured me, to stay cored,  and I bless the day 1 fust tried it !"    -  So 011 e could go on quoting case after case and it is by working" such cures that  Zam-lluk has earned for itself its great repu,iation.

A SCIENTIFIC WONDER  The Secret of a Famous Healing-Balm  - The re-discovery of a secret that has  lain hidden in the dust of 20 centuries  is an event full of fascinating interest,  and the story of Zam-Buk, the world-  famed first-aid and skin cure will always enlist attention. Zam-Buk is the  virtual descendant ot those woderful  and mysterious herbal balms by the use  of which the manly athletes of Ancient  Greece and the stalwart gladiators of  Rome ensured the healthiness and  ready healing of their skin.      ,  Many are the attempts that were  made to produce a perfect balm for the  skiq, but only in Zatc-Bnk has the  ideal been realized. Since its discovery Zam-Buk has been' welcomed in  mansion and cottage, and the people of  two hemispheres realised that they  have been placed in possession of an  absolutely unique cure for skin complaints. ,  The reasons for thiB triumph ot  science are simple and few. Taking a  lesson from the Ancients, the proprietors of Zam-Buk first of all wisely decided that the ideal balm must be purely herbal and contain not the slightest  trace of rancid animal fate or poisonous minerals. Thus Zam Buk is made  solely from rich and pure essences obtained from certain herbs. These  juices and extracts are prepared and  refined by ingenious scientific processes and then so. skilfully blended that a  unique, effective, and yet perfectly  natural preparation for dispelling skin  disease is secued.  Zam Buk has an affinity for the  human skin such as no ordinary ointment or linament can possibly possess.  Besides soothing pain - and allaying  irritation, it possesses unique antiseptic  and germicidal qualities -which virtually chase disease germs out of their  hiding-places in the skin tissues; at the  same time it purifies tbe pores and invigorates the natural functions of the  skin in a way th; t no other preparation can.  Zam-Buk solves in a perfect manner  tbe problem of alwayshaving handy at  home or at one's work an ever ready  and reliable fir*&t aid for cuts, burns,  scalds, bruises, lacerations, scrutches,  etc. Zara Buk is without equal for  eczema, ulcers,piles.bad leg, ringworm  scalp b res, festering aeres, sprains,  stiffness, poisoned wounds of all kinds,  face soses, chafing, chapped hands,  cold soreB, frost bites, sore feet, diseas  ed ankles, and all such itching, irritat  ion* and inflammation.  Zam Buk is in dailr need in every  household and is sold by ail druggists  and stores at 50 cents a bos. Refuse  harmful and dangerous substitutes  sometimes "pushed" as being "just as  good."

Dated at Land Registry Office, Kamloops,  this 17th day of December, 1908.  W. H. EDMONDS,  District Registrar  Everybody  Agrees  that COD LIVER OIL and IRON arc  beyond question the greatest medicines known. Then why does not  everybody *ake Cod Live: Oil and  Iron? Simply because most people  cannot take tlie Oil and few can digest  the Iron in any ordinary form. These  difficulties have been entirely removed  by the introduction of FERROL, in  which the Iron is scientifically combined with the Oil, rendering the Oil  palatable and the Iron digestible.  WhUe  FERROL  is manufactured from the best quality  of Cod Liver Oil (the whole of the Oil)  and is richer in *"-il than any other  enml-;ion,and while it contains just the  right quantity of the best form of Iron  ind Phosphorus, it is so scientifically  prepared that not one person in a thousand finds any- trouble in taking it,  ind infants digest it without difficulty.  Moreover the well-established value of  the Oil and Iron is immensely  enhanced by the process of manufacture, and as the formula is freely exposed it is not to be wondered at that  physicians everywhere have fully  endorsed FERROL and used it largely  in their practice. FERROL is invaluable for the treatment of any kind of  Lung or Bronchial troubles, while for  wasting diseases it has no equal, and  ����You Know What  You Take"  nc  We will send you The Boundary Creek  Times with all the News pf the Boundary  and The Farm and Ranch Review, Cal/  gary, a first-class Rancher's Paper, irom  now until January 1st, 1910,  The Manitoba Daily Free Press  and The Boundary Creek Times  Twelve Months for  >0<l-HIMI>IMHIMtll-IM  WORTH TAKING  On��oane�� Fluid Extract Dandelion;  On* otmoe Compound SaUtoM ;  Four   onnoM   Compound   Syrup  8arBj-parflla;  liixsd and Ukaa ia t������pooofnl  dom aftar Meh meal and at bedtime, -  is fsoBaBMad by a promir-��nt physi-'  clan to be tha best mixtnrs for the  oar* of aha kidney, bladder, and all  vtiaaaj tro-ablta.
