' The meeting which was held in.the Town Hall last evening in support of the National tieserve movement evidently met; with, general interest and sympathy judging by the large gathering of :the public, which almost filled the hall. Women, too, showed their support by tlieir presence—in quite considerable uumbers—and ithey had the pleasure of listening to .the well-deserved tributes which wore paid to New Zealand women by .'the..Prime Minister and by the Mayor- Not only were they tributes' to' their ' tireless _ energy and tielf-sacriiice".' in working ' for. the' completion of the equipment ..of: the troops who have gone, but . for their courage, their abnegation in- pleading that their sons, sometimes' their''.only sons, might' be given the opportunity of'fighting for their country and for: the cause of justice and freedom. They . were fine tributes, and well; won. _ The nurses, too, were specially mentioned, and the hundreds of applications for serving at the front, which had. beeri ieceived, when only fifty were asked for.

HULLEN DISPENSEDWITH ELECTROLYSIS, '1 was, and am still, an expert in electrolysis,' said Mrs. Hullen in tho course of an i interview, 'Tint I'm glad to say 1 don't need to practise it. Electrolysis, is not nearly so Rusma lor romoving superfluous hair. Electrolysis is painful, and no matter how skilfully dono, every insertion of the hot needle must leave a littlft cicatrice—white scar —just as any other wound will 6how after healing. But, with my improved jjusma treatment no needle is used, consequently no scar CAN be left. In fact the skin is cleared and softened and- improved. , And I GUARANTEE a cure with Rusma—l've scores, of testimonials." Mrs., Hullen invites all. superfluous hair I sufferers to call or write.'
