Mrs E. Fletcher, cutler, of Gloucester, England, presented His Royal Highness the Prinoe of Wales with a pair of splendid razors whioh belonged to bis grandfather, His Royal Highness tbe Duke of Kent. They came into Mrs Fletoher's possession m the following manner. Tho late Mr Thomas Turner, banker, Gloucester, had a profound veneration for the Duke of Kent, and at his decease he attended the disposal of his effects and pur. ohased at considerable cost his oase and razors to preserve as a souvenir. Mr Turner held Mrs Fletcher m great estimation, and when he was on his death bed ho sent for her, and giving her the history of the razors presented them to her as a testimony of his esteem and respeot. We olip the following important testimonial from tho " Illawarra Merourry " (N.S.W.) of tho 30th Maroh. It needs no commont :— " Mr John Loveday, of tho Bulli Mountain, writeß to ua that after Buttering for four years with acuto gravel, ho has experienced almost complete relief by using Sander and Soob' Euoalypti Extraot. He Bays seeing the said Extraot advertised m tho 'Illawarra Mercury,' his intense Buffering induoed him to obtain a bottle of the medioine from Mr Hoßking, ohemist, of this town, and that tbe uso of it gave him groat relief at onco. He states that between tho 10th March instant, when he obtained tho first bottle of tho extract, and the 19tb, the use of tbat medicine oontinued to afford him relief, to which ho had been a stranger for four years. Mr Loveday writes also that he has found the Euoalypti Extraot a ouro for rheumatism as well as gravel. Ho requests us to publish this information through the ' Mercury.' We have muoh pleasure m complying with Mr Lovoday's request, whose word oannot be doubted, and who can have no objeot m view other tban a pure desire to benefit suffering humanity." — (Advt,) 2
