Dear Sir,~For a number of years I have been suffering from icdigestion and its conse- quent troubles. Some months since, however, I was advised to try your ‘* Everybody's Vil!s,” and am happy to say 1 am now free from any symptoms of indigestion. I regard ‘« Everybody's Pills ’ as a thoroughly reliable Family Medicine, mild in their action, and having no unpleasant after-effects so common to such remedies, and I would, with confidence, recommend all who have suffered as I have to try ‘* Everybody's Pills.”
Yours very cordially, .

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
The Seott Act Cawpaign. '
£m, —As the date of the election in the matter of the reppeal of the Seott Act has been fixed, and the press are taking sides on the question, it is but natural to suppose that the contest has fairly begun. You, will agree with me that there is nothing to be gained by haif statements on one side or another, and that slurs and mere vapor are not in order on such an important subject | as that which is now before the public ; and, further that there is everything to be gain- | ed by a fair and honest discussion of the whole question. I hope that on both sides we are seeking not the benefit of the few, but of the whole community ; and it is in view of the whole question that | write this letter. | do not wish it to be uaderstood that | write in the spirit cf mere criticism or with any desire to iind fault with the position of Tue Examiner ov the matter. I yield to you the right to oppose the Act even as | claim for myself the right to sup- port it. ] have assumed that you oppose the act; and what leads me to do sv is that the general teavr of the paper has given that impression. If you will turn to your fil- you will find that when a point could be made against the act in any county or tuwn where it was in force, you were not slow to reprint it in your paper, and I am not aware that you put in anything that seem- ed favorable to the retention of it; all of which, trom your standpoint, was justly your right. Now, sir, you have seen a license system at work in this community and you have seen the Scotc Act, and the conclusion come to on your part is that the licens? system is preferable to eur present system, and your action asks that the people do away with the present mode of restricting the traffic and return to the forner. You, must have good reasons for asking that ; butas far as I can gather from your paper you have fallen into the same mistake as that charged by you against the clergymen at the late temperance meeting, viz. ; you give no reason why we should re- turn toasystem with which the people were then and are now heartily tired of.
I hold that you owe it to your readers, who are debating the matter with themselves, to lay before them the grounds on which you
traffic has grown. To restrictive measures are now before them; both have had aa trial. Will you print side by side the importations under the one system and under the other,
The arrests for Grunkensss under the one and under the other; the amount of consumption per head under
the license system, and the amount per head under the Scott Act. Explanations may be needed on your part as on mine; but let us first have facts and the explanations can follow.
You have at hand the blue books and the police register and can furnish the material; then we shall beableto discuss the matter, and the people will be able to say which of the systems are the more restrictive.
Further, you seem to prefer a high license system to our present mode of restricting the traffic, You have no doubt watched closcly the operations of that system and are pleased with it else you would not ask the com- munity to adept it, At the present, I do not say anything as to the morality of a_ license system of any kind, | am ouly asking for fact. Would youthen furnish us with the results of a high license system—say for five or ten years in any province or state, 8° that we may be able to contrast the one with the other and decide the question on its merits?
Ihe people whose views I represent are ready to discuss the matter from our stand point, and no doubt yeu are ready to defeud your position, Would you kindly lay before us the facts on both sides, anti let the com- munity know as between two restrictive measures which is the more restrictive.
Hoping that you may comply with my request, [ am respectfully yours,
Jas, CARRUTHERS.

something Must Be Done! | sncininesinines | Sir,—This expression seems to voice the
‘sentiments of a large number of people in’
view of the ravages of intemperance among young men, notwithstanding the Scott Act, ‘and present efforts te enforce it. That all good citizens should stand by this Act, re- | sisting to the last all efforts for its repeal, ’ ought not to admit of a dissenting opinion. There is another phase of the subject, how- ever, not so well or generally appreciated. It has been aptly ssid that a gin-mill can no | more be run without boys than a saw-mill | without logs. Until such time, then, as the | milla can be closed, an important considera- | tion both for the safety of the boys aud the | retention and enforcement of the Scott Act, | consists in keeping the logs from the mill ‘and diverting them into other channels, | in other words, the young men must be in- | duced to keep away from the saloons. How listhiato be done? Answers more or less ' good come thick aud fast. Moral suasion,
| pleasant homes, rood teaching, parental |
are all good, but often all or singly ‘failures. It is a peculiarity of young men ‘that they seek one another, and are influenc- _ed by one another more than any other class lof the community. This is witnessed in ‘their constant tendency to congrégate and club together. The fact is : Young men asa ‘rule will not spend their evenings at home. They gravitate to the town centres to tind life, enjoyment and associates. There they are greeted and drawn in by the light and comfort and good cheer of the Moral suasion is all right, and Precepts of parents

in the minds of so many, should take defin- ieform. It lies providing the light and warmth and cheer—the fellowship and soeial enjeyment under pure and whole- Some are graspitig this idea and proposing the establishment of rooms suitably fitted with musical instru- ments, games, and such other harmless at- tractions as will constitute a social home for young men, such as{will meet their views and furnish a substitute for the things they, for the most part, seek in the danger- ous and unlawful resorts. Why is not this a sensible plan? It is just what other places are doing through their Young Men’s Christian Associations. Why should not Charlottetown ? Why form another society and establish other rooms, one of the avowed objects of this society, is this very thing ’—when it is already in possession of a building well located, and which, by a little enterprise and sanctified common sense, can ba ad- mirably adapted to the purpose? Why not turn our attention to this existing organization and make what it ought to be, and what, by its constitution, it professes tu be—an agency for ‘the physical, men- tal, socisl, as well‘as*’spiritual, improvement of young men?’ This Assogiation already provides an excellent reading room. This should be thrown open to every young man who will use it. To this should be added social rooms, with the attractions already referred to. The gymnasium should be rehabilitated, fitted with the best apparatus and® made the solid attraction, which it can be. Lastly, a young man in charge to act as host, greet the fellows when they come in, get acquainted with them, and thus render effective the advan- tages provided. These, without doubt, are some of the lines upon which this Associa- tion should be working. This, it would seem, would meet the views of those who feel that ** something must bo done,” as there is little doubt it would meet the views of the young men themselves, who would, as elsewhere, in large numbers avail themselves of its privileges, relieve the ap- prehensions (all too well founded) of many parents and good people, aud go far towards solving the liquor problem, so far as the young men of the community are con- cerned. ;
