Here is an interesting paragraph, because each successive word starts with a letter from the alphabet, com-' mencing at A and ending at Z, leaving out only X : “Aftqr brief chilly days earth feels gladdening heat. Its joyous kindling leads me now over pure, qniet, restful swards towards undulating valleys with youthful zeal.” One of the most curious reasons which has come to hand for voting against the Levin Building Loan (says the Levin “Chronicle”) was given by a Maori. "I’ll vote for the streets loan all right,” he explained, “but not for the buildings. I’ll pay rates for putting down the good street and then I can walk on it for nothing,, but I have to pay rates for the hal), and then pay again when I want 'o go into it.” An argument availed not to alter his determination. Only a. chill and a simple cold, Only a store where the cure is sold, Only neglect and unwise delay, Only a doctor called in next day. Only a week from your business lost, Only a groan when counting the cost, Only one way with the wise, be sure, Only Woods’ Great Peppermint Cure.
