PERFECT DIGESTION MEANS PERFECT HEALTH. A good stomach keeps every part of tho body in perfect condition, and Disease cannot break in. Dr. Sheldon’s Digestive Tabulos aro a natural remedy for all disorders and weaknesses of tho stomach. They possess exactly tho samo properties as tho gastric juices and other digestivo fluids of tho stomach. They actually do the digestive work of tho stomach, and enable that organ to rest, recuperate, and becomo sound and healthy. They act in a mild, natural manner, and cause no disturbance in tho digestivo organs. They provont any fermentation of tho food, which causes sour stomach. Dr. Sheldon’s Digestivo Tabulos instil health into every part .of the human body. They compel perfect digestion of the food and perfect ass.nidation of tho food nutriment. Ev&cy organ of the body is kept in repair, and good health necessarily result. At tho same time the stomach, b-'hig relieved of its work, gets well strong. Obtainable at A. W.

V/HAT DRINK IS DOING IN POVERTY BAY. FEARFUL RECORD FOR 1907. TO an appalling and increasing extent tin; Liquor Traffic in this district is throwing into history tho darker shades of sorrow and suffering in all its manifold forms. Last year there were no less than 302 CONVICTIONS FOR DRUNKENNESS, of whom 11 were WOMEN and 27 MAORIS. This ol itself is awful in the extreme, but it is well known that this contingent, large as it is, dorms only a small proportion of the number whom tho Liquor Dealers of this District send home with empty pockets, tottering limbs, and muddled brains, to their poor wives and children, and, alas, often to their parents, who are breaking their hearts over, the moral graves, of their boys. When giving evidence a few years ago before tho Lords Committee, the Hon. Joseph Chamberlain said, regarding the arrests for drunkenness, that “Another turn of the screw would bring in ten times that number.” This would certainly bo true of Gisborne, for DRUNKEN MEN (MANY YOUNG) FORM A PAINFULLY COMMON SIGHT IN ITS STREETS EVERY DAY. . . , . But nothing so strikingly emphasises the demoralising effects of tho Liquor Traffic in this district as the appalling fact that during 1907 the huge total of 120 PROHIBITION ORDERS wero granted at our local Court-, 1 of which were to women, and u to Maoris. Of this largo regiment ol BROKEN-DOWN HUMAN! LY, no less than 58 applied personally for these orders, so as to get the protection of the law against themseh us. Wo do not envy those who fail to see tho DEEP PATHOS INVOLVED IN the PARALYSIS OF WILL IJJAI MAKES AN APPLICATION OF TlliS EXTR A ORDINARY CHARACTER. On this subject wo can now only say two things—• 1. In regard to no of her trade havo men and women to take Prohibition Orders against themselves. 9. Is it not a most serious reflection upon the intelligence and humanity of a large section of tile community that, in order to get easily and conveniently their glass of liquor, many people will vote for the legalisation of a traffic that is not only retarding' the commercial prosperity of our fair town, but is tainting its moral atmosphere, weakening the moral fibre of its manhood, and degrading its womanhood?
