IT'S CURES
THAT COUNT.
Many so-called remedies are
pressed 011 the public attention
on account of their claimed
large sales. Hut sales canuot
determine values. Sales simply
argue good salesmen, shrewd
patfery, or enormous advertis-
ing. It's cures that count. It
is cures that are counted on by
Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Its sales
might be boasted. It has the
world for its market. Hut
sales prove nothing. We point
only to the record of Ayer's
Sarsaparilla, as proof of its
merit:

interest in the
revolution was occasioned yesterday
by the unexpected arrival here of Senor
Quesada. secretary of the Cuban junta
in the United States. When asked
concerning the nature of his business,
Senor Quesada said:
My chief object was to see about making ar-
rangements for re-establishing the provisional
■.. titn here, and this will be done itithfn the
next few weeks. We intend to do our best
during the coming session of congress to secure
recognition of independence; for Cuba. We are
in receipt of the most encouraging news from
1 uba. and our efforts in this country to co-oper-
ate with the revolutionists have been very suc-
cessful. During the last three months we
have sent 7.0 H) rifle* to Cuba. That is the
great desideratum down there arms and
ammunition We expect by the 1st of Janu-
ary to double the number of rifles sent

will enable us to make a speedy termination
of the contest. The rainy season now prevail

\ Manitoba Sebool I'mldem.
\Vin\i(H:<., Man., Oct. :.'l.- A hitch
has occurred in the conference at Ot-
tawa for the settlement < f the paro-
chial school question. Premier Laurier
;ind the Manitoba delegates had agreed
to the setting apart of half an hour a
day in each s -hool for religions teach-
ing by Catholics, the belief being that
this concessions would be acceptable to
both sides Hut when the Protestant
leaders here heard of it they made vig-
orous objection, declaring such a con-
cession a violation of the national
school principle, so the Manitoba, pre-
mier. Mr. lireenwav, had to withdraw
from this agreement and now as far as
can be learned no other scheme can
be devised and the settlement is as far
oft' as ever.

Lonpon. Oct. *il — St. James hall was
packed with a larare audience yester-
day, a large proportion of whom were
women, to lake part in the demonstra-
tion of protect acainst the Armenian
massacres. Intense enthusiasm was
manifested by those present, especially
over the reading of a letter from Mr.
Gladstone. The great object, Mr.
(iladstone sa d, was to strengthen Lord
Salisbury's hands, and to stop the
series of massacres, which were prob-
ably still unfinished, and to provide
against their renewal.
The meeting unanimously adopted
resolutions expressing abhorrence of
the Armenian massacres, and support
j of the Hrit ish government in its efforts
to stop them, appealing to the powers
to co-operate with that object, and
asking all nations and creeds to assist
! in the succor of the helpless anil starv-
' ing Annenians.

ported that the Central Trades ami
Labor assembly of that city had voted
to surrender its charter and to co-oper-
with the executive board in establish-
ing a new central body. The report
was approved. The important busi-
ness of to-day was the consideration of
the labor bills pending in congress,
among them the national immigration
bill, which proposes to fix an educa-
tional test. It is quite likely that tv
protest wiil be made against this bill.

Washington, Oct. Jl. 1'he feeling at
the treasury duriny the closing week*-
of the political campaign is one of con-
fidence. The gold reserve still stands
$.'••.000,000 above the conventional limit
named in the law of 1882, and there
are no indications of an v serious raid
for the purpose of hoarding. There i*-
no surprise felt that the New York
banks and exchange houses which have
been importitig gold are keeping a close
hold upon it, pending a definite deci-
sion whether the country is to adhert
to the gold standard or take the piungt
to the silver basis.
