Tin-: Huai, British Sj’jtitn’. The spirit of the British people fo day is unbroken and should bg jm troubled. The courage of the Em pin Builders of the past ajul inspires us. All is well; better l>v fai than some would have us believe. Out respansibiitiee may he great, but out privileges aye far greater, for nationally ns well as individually have wo not a heritage to be proud of that is the envy and admiration of every pa,tio,u op earth?

It is tlie intention to farewell ReV. Father Clancy at St. Mary’s Club Rooms on Friday evening, when lie will be entertained at a social and a presentation will be made. All friends are cordially invited to be present. Two excursion trains, following one another at an interval of some twenty minutes, passed through Hokitika this morning about 11 o’clock from Greymouth on the way to Lake Mahina.pua where a public- picnic is being held.

Tlie body of Thomas Reynolds, one of the three victims of the Alia urn dredge drowning fatality nine months ago, was recovered in a lagoon in the Grey River on Monday, near Aliaurn.

fair and square deal. They know too, when they are being financially bled. It is to be regretted that for the last two months orders for the suits tailored by mail by John H. Glasson have far exceeded the output, not nearly so many as wished, were able to secure one of these splendid fitting suits.before tlie holidays. The position is new better, and' we advise any man wanting a good suit, to write now for patterns. There is no better value in New Zealand today. Prices range from 92s 6d to £7 10s Od. The patterns arc smart, and you have, a good collection to choose from. With the simplified measuring -form included with the patterns, customers are guaranteed a perfect fit. If any suit is not made exactly as ordered or fails in the fit, tlie full purchase price will ho at once refunded. No risk is taken whatever, you are not a penny out of pocket if you are not pleased with yoqr purchase. Mention the Guaidian and note the address, Jolip H. Glasson, Cashel St., Cbristclnjrch, P.O. Box 41, Adyt. Kitchen economy demands the use of SHARLAND’S Baking Powder. Costs less than others—gives better results. Your grocer sells it-
