CITY COUNCIL ELECTION 1 TO THE ELECTORS OP CHRISTCHURCH. Ladies and Gentlemen, — Having been nominated as a candidate for election as a City Cotuicillir, I have the honour and pleasure of soliciting your votes and support at W*€ " the forthcoming elections, on Wednesday, April 27th. I.have had fifty years' practical and successful business experience (twenty-five; years of which have been spent in .this City), and tlhis should prove a valuable. asset in carrying out the".'duties of Councillor. I have retired from business and can give all the time necesssary to the affairs of the City. I may state y briefly, that I am'in favour of doing all that is possible to.keep the Electric Light and rower Department up to t!he required standard; I believe that the arrangements made for the.Municipal Offices, in Manchester street, are sufficient for the time, being, but .do not believe the Town Hall project a feasible one at the present time. • However, having in view the necessity of being ready when tho time conies, I consider the Council should, without delay, secure the sections in Cambridge terrace suitable as a. Town Hall site. I am not in favour of a Municipal Bakery. but consider an effort 'should be made to establish City Markets . for the sale of Fish, etc... such markets to, be: controlled' on similar lines as tho Municipal Markets in Great Britain. In reference to, the Port Christchurch sdheme, I may state I am in favour of it. I stand as an Independent candidate, first for Economy in working, second for Efficiency ir. administration, third for the continued Progress" of : the City. Your votes are respectfully solicited. Yours faithfully, c • WILLIAM CONGREVE. Cashmere Hills. 1
DYSPEPTICS CAN EAT WHAT THEY LIKE. If they tat© Bisurated Magnesia immediately after eating. No matter how badly you may suffer from indigestion, dyspepsia, flatulence, or acidity—no matter t how many medicines you may have tried without success —do not give up hope. Thousands who once suffered as you now suffer —who had tried everything without [obtaining reliVf—now en*joy perfect health, and can cat almost anytning without the slightest .pain or discomfort. Yon can do the same if you will go to-day to any chemist and get a package of Bisurated Magnesia. This is prepared in bofh powder and tablet forms, and if you take half-a-teaspoon-ful of the powder in a little water, or two or three tablets, after every meal or whenever pain is felt, you will ibe delighted at the result, The reason is not far _to seek. Directly Bisurated Magnesia is taken it neutralises harmful acids, and at the same time soothes the inflamed lining of the eiomadh, and thus ensures normal digestion and freedom from pain. Do not Wait; do not delay., Get Bisurated. Magnesia to-day, and forget you ever had a stomach. But it must be BISURATED Magnesia, so look on the wrapper for the additional trade-mark word "Bismag"—which is there to protect you" against worthless substitutes. 076
An attempt by the New York AntiCigarette League to forbid smoking in any Government building or in Government offices was defeated in Congress, when 9enatoTs pointed out that such a law would prohibit the President's guests from smoking in the' "White House. Opponents of the. proposed law have issued a serious warning that, if reformers go much frother in restricting the. personal habits of _ Americans, they will "a generation of dandies," mollycoddles, and nincompoops." The Anti-Cigarette League, which is making good progress in various parts of the country, has just secured a law in Utah- prohibiting smoking in any public place. In New YtirkCity it is a. misdemeanour,. punishable by heavy fines, to smoke in any subway, railway train, tramcar, or terminal, and there are many States from whicn the cigarette is banned entirely.
A.good thing has many imitations. Order "NAZOL" by name. Refuse substitutes. No cold is Nazol-proof< 4
