Tho first case of a series to bo instituted I on behalf of natives whose horses ware J seized at Pukekura by the Sheriff under J writ of *he Supreme Court was heard at J the Resident Magistrate’s Court, at I Cambridge, on Saturday. After hearing J the evidence the Magistrate gave judg- I meat for plaintiff, the horses to be returned, the defendant to pay L 33 I damages, and L 23 costs. The decision j caused considerable uneasiness, as a large I I number of horses were bought at the same sale. At a meeting of the Auckland Licensed Victuallers’ Association the following resolution was carried unanimously : | “That, in the opinion of this meeting the 1 action of the Licensing Commissioners of I the city is deserving censure, inasmuch as they manifested a spirit of bitterness towards persons ia trade, which warrants J the conclusion that a radical change in 1 the Act and amendment is absolutely J necessary. ” That a draft copy of the Bill transmitted from the Otago Association j meets with the entire approval of the Auckland Licensed Victuallers’ AssociaI tion, and that it will use every exertion I to have the Acts amended in that direcI tion. A resolution was passed oommond--1 iug the impartiality of Superintendent 1 Thomson.

are never imitated or counterfeited. T his is especially true of a family medicine, and it is positive proof that the remedy imitated is of the highest value. As soon as it has been tested and proved by the whole world that Hop Bitters was the purest, best, and most valuable family medicine on earth, many imitations sprung up and began to steal the notices in which the press and the people of the country had expressed the merits of H. 8., and in every way trying to induce suffering invalids to use their stuft instead, expecting to ma e money on the credit and good name of H. B Many others started nostrums put up in simi lar style to H. 8., with variously devised names in which the word “ Hop ” or “Hops ” were used in a way to induce people to believe they were the same as Hop Bitters. All such pretended remedies or cures, no matter what their style or name is, and especially those with the word “Hop’’ or “Hops” in their name or in any way. connected with them or their name, are imitations or counterfeits. Beware of them. Touch none of them. Use nothing but genuine American Hop Bitters, with a bunch or cluster of green Hops on the w* ; te label, .and Dr boule’s name blown in th glass. Trust nothing else. Druggists and ch .mists are warned against dealing in im tations or counterfeit
