MINISTERS' ASSOCIATION

r- The annual meeting of the Wellington Minister's' Association was lield at ■tho Y.M.C.A. Rooms on Monday afternoon, under the presidency of Rev. J. J. Lewis. In response to a request from, tho Socioty for tho Prevention of Cruslty to Animals, it was resolved to recommend members, of the association to stress tho duty'of kindness to'animals at some • convenient Supclay scr- • vicei. Mr. - Hunter's proposed Racing Bill.was discussed, and the following resolution was passed:—"That this association ; realising the widespread evils of the gambling habit.in this Dominion," vipws with grave apprehension the proposed introduction Into Parliament of the Gaming Act of 1910 Amendment Bill, and, emphatically protests against tho proposal of the Bill to increase the number of Tace days on which totalisator permits may be granted, as tending to increase the facilities for gambling, and being therefore inimical to the best interests .of the country." It was decided to ask tho local churches to pass a similar resolution, and also to suggest a like action to other ministers' associations. ■ ' ' The annual report were submitted, and adopted., Rov. AV. H. Hinton was elcctcd president for the ensuing year, and Rev. P. J. Cossum was rc-electcd secretary and treasurer.

■ In 1847 during the course of a long series of experiments with numerous rheumatic and gouty subjects, scientists'first noticed that the blood of every patient contained excess uric acid. Thus the cause of Rheumatism and its. kindred diseases, Sciatica, Lumbago, Gravel, and Stono/was nt Inst discovered. Thousands of prescrip-' tions to expel this excess were tried—but without siicees*. , One of New Zealand's leading chemists worked nt the problem for many a year. At last he compounded n medicine which'cured practically every case—cured even those who had suffered for twenty years rind more.- One told another of this splendid remedy, and thus the sales of MIEUMO grew until to-dny it-can bo. purchased all over New, Zealand. RHEUIfO has been tried, tested, . arid proved effectual by thousands of sufferers. Here's a case' in point:—Mr. Alexander Miller, of Eoslyn, is opo of Dun'edin's best-known builders. Brief and businesslike, he writes: —"I suffered from Rheumatism in my bock for two months, and' was cured by HHEUMO in two or three days-. I con recommend it to anyone suffering from the same complaint." * You can take Mr. Miller's recommendation. All stores and chemists, 2s. 6d. and 4s. 6d.-Advt.
