It is a striking instance of the value of timber producing forests, as much of the land is not suitable for settlement purposes. There are many houses in Auckland, half a.century old, whi,ch have been built of kauri timber from the island and they are in a perfectly sound state to-day. If you’ve made a pile of dollars. But your health is broken down, You will find a welcome wa'ting “ In Your Little Old Home-Town.” If. a hacking cough grown chronic Makes life dreadful to endure, You will find a welcome tonic In Woods’ Great Peppermint Cure.
