The Fauna and Flora of New Zealand.

I only chance of recovery, having little faith in doctors. But I was in such a bad condition that I thought I would not be able to stand the journey. It wa3 after I had been afflicted some thi'ee weeks— which aremed an age back— that I asw a pamphlet which a friend of mine had received, and read a case which exact 7 correspond, d with my own, and which Dr Williams' Pink Piils had cured. I had seen thes. pills advertised in the Otaki Mail and oiher papers, and when I r. ad of this case, I immediately sent to Wellington for six b xes of the pills, and commenced taking them in strict accordance with the instructions on the wrapper. When I had finished the fourth box I noticed a marked improvement, and after taking the lot I got another six boxes. When these were gone I was a'most well again, but I procured six boxes more, and i took these also. I have no hesitation whatever in saying that Dr Wil iams' Fink Pil's positively cured me of the most acute rheumatic sciatica whieh it is jtossible for a man to experienoe. It is now some six months since I took the p lis, and I have* never felt the oftins since. Indeed, 1 feel better now than I did b:frre I was taken ill. I omitted to mention that I a'so had partial •_aray isin my left foot for some years p eviou* to taki' g Dr Williams' Pink Pills, but am pleased to say that this also is quite better. Indeed, my case has been a raojt complicued one, but thanks to this wonderful remedy, I nm once more able to enjoy life. .My health is better altogether, ind mv app.fre has much impr ved." Truly Mr Evans' discovery was an interesting one, both to himself and, let us hope, 0 readers similarly affile cd. Chemists and storekeepers sll over the colonies sell Dr W lliams' Pink Pills.

» X DISCOVERY BY A PROFESSOR. Tho fauna, ar.d flora of the c.'rny of N.Z. bave formei the subject of much scientific inquiry and research. An intere°tiner discovery has ber n lately made by Mr E'an Evan*, who, being engaged by Mr P rcy Gil' ips, of Te Hiro, tt.Z., as gardener and milker, mav fairly lay claim to some knowledge of tbe flora fauna of his colony The account o" Mr Evan Evans* discovery is given in tis own a words:— "1 nave been troubled with chronic rheumatism for the past 30 years, but in July last was taken il. witb rheumatio . ciatica. The pains commenc. din the left hi > joint and soon spread right down tbe les: to tbe foot. At night t e pain se med much worse, and I fe't as if I were being fl>y*d alive, and really thought that I shou d go mad. Owing to the excruciating pain. |I could obtain scarce y any s'e. pa- night, but lay in bed moaning and crying ou; in agonv. Dnrint? the first wek I was afflictpd I had to give up aH idea of work, and for some time af'er th^s was hard y fit anything. I tried sev. rai ointments liniments, and palters, but al hough I fancied they did m •* a li tie temporary good, in a short time I was even worse than before. \I. grew sjo bad that I contemplated a trip to the hot springs at Rotorua, b«ing of opinion that that was my
