Is it not a fact that you wrote ‘ spoony' letters to this young man ?” was the question put to a middle-aged female plaintiff by defendant’s counsel. The witness warmly denied the soft impeachment, remarking, “ No, I did not; I’m old enough to be his mother.” “Well, didut you go to a fortune-teller, who told you that this young man’s wif; was going to die, and you would many him ?'” “Indeed I did not,” camd the heated response, “ I’ve got a good husband of my own.” — Christchurch Truth.

I have used it several times and it always gives me immediate relief. Not long ago one of my carters came home with a very severe attack of Colic and Diarrhoea and it only took two doses of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy to fix him up in good shape. I never go away on a trip without a bottle of this mcdiciue, for I find that change of water often affects one. For sale everywhere.— Advt.

The skua-gull, we are told by the Bluff correspondent of the Otago Daily Times, is following on the evil courses of the kea, and making sad havoc amongst the island flocks. His delinquencies have been specially noted at Campbell Island. There he is understood to have relinquished his customary seafaring pursuits and devoted attention exclusively to the pastoral interests. No sooucr does a sheep get down on its back than be is down upon it like a flash, picking put its eyes and otherwise assisting it to a rapid despatch. As we understand it, this is altogether a new departure, and the probabilities are that we may hear more about it in the lambing seasons.

The first quarter of the new year will see a good deal of desirable land iu the Wellington district opened up for closer settlement by the Wellington District Land Board. On March 24, the Carrington Estate of 5106 acres, situated at Carterton,will be thrown open for selection in sections of from 77 to 643 acres The Pitt Settlement, adjoining the old Hult Racecourse, will be balloted for on March 30, when there will be offered 120 sections of 33 years’ lease. Then before the end of March the Waitotara block of 10,000 acres will be thrown open for selection, and there aie now two survey parties on the block getting it ready for the coming ballot. The Commissioner (Mr Jas. Mackenzie"! will visit Waitotara in a few days. The members of the District Board will go to Raetihi at the end of next month to supervise the disposal of 28 township allotments at Raetihi and 55 sections in Oliakune. The board will also visit the Ruatiti block (South Waimarino), of some 14,178 acres, early in March. On the tree - planting prison camp at Waiotapu there are 50 men at work, and at Waipa 23. The men who are sent to these stations are generally selected from those who are serving fairly long terms, and against whom for some time past there have been no complaints. Generally speaking, the men who have been given this privilege have, it is reported, justified their selection, and some, on the strength of the experience so obtained, have been given work by the Forestry Department at the expiration of their term of servitude. From the prisoner’s point of view it is not a bad thing to go to the tree-planting. An ordinary inmate of a prison who behaves himself perfectly can get a remission of one-third of his sentence, not counting the first three months. If he plants trees he increases the remission to the extent of 26 days tor every year he has to serve. Half a mile distant from Waiotapu is a tree-planting establishment where convalescent consumptives from the Waikato Sanatorium, Cambridge, are at work. The ex-consumptives are given a fortnight in which to get into the way of things, and after that they have to do sufficient to represent a money value of 15s a week. Some of them earn xos a day. This camp is in charge of a matron, and indications are that it it is serving a most useful and ’ practical purpose. The next time you feel bilious take a dose of Chamberlain’s Tablets and see bow quickly the trouble will disappear. They cleanse and invigorate the stomach and give one a relish for bis meals. They also regulate the liver and bowels. For sale everywhere.—Advt.

Why 18 SANDER AND SON'S DUKE VOLATILE EUCALYPTI EXTRACT superior to any other eucalyptus product ? liecause it is the result of full experience, and of a special and careful process of manufacture, and the clangers attending the use of the irresponsible preparations which are now palmed off a; “ Extracts ” are avoided. A death was recently reported from the use of one of these concoctions, an 1 at an acfion-at-law a sworn witness testified that be suffered the most cruel irritation from the application to an nicer of anothe which was sold as just as good as Sander’s extract. Therefore, beware of such deception 1 Kemeniber that a drop that cures is better than a tablespoonful that kills, and insist upon the preparation which was proved by experts at the Supreme Court of Victoria, and by numerous authorities during the past 35 years to be a product of genuine merit, viz., the genuine SANDER AND SONS’ PURE VOLATILE eucalypti extract.

YOU AND YOURSELF. When you are 111, do you know what makes you Hi ? “Know thyself,” is a useful proverb But how many people do know themselves ? Do you ? When you are ill, do you know what is making you ill P Could you give a reason P Could you guess the cause P If you have an abscess, there is no doubt about your condition. There is the sore place to be seen. Similarly, men or women with a cold on the chest and a severe cough, have definite symptoms and can describe precisely what is wrong with them, when the doctor calls. But most people are not ill in these plain, obvious, matter-of-fact ways—many times in their lives. They may be constantly ill, in vague, uneasy ways. Beyond realising one o two vague causes of distress, apparently of little moment, they seem Avell and feel they ought to be well. Only—they never are well. One gets up in the morning tired. ‘Another feels dull and heavy. Another flushes in the face and has palpitation on mounting the stairs. Still another feels depressed at the end of the day and cannot sleep at night, though tired out. Or, the tongue is coated. Food does not tempt and gives no pleasure. Eating is an ordeal and pain follows it sometimes sickness. Dizziness occurs. Flatulence is common. The system becomes irregular. But they go on suffering. Why P The stomach is the cause. The stomach is the most used, most delicate, most important organ of the body. It is worked harder than any other. It literally keeps the body alive in the same way that the tire makes steam for the engine. But it ever so slightly out of order and there is trouble. A distressing symptom is set up. Discomfort follows. A feeling of actual illness sets in. Next time you feel that way don’t worry and suffer. Go to your Chemist. Ask for a medicine he knows—a medicine millions know—Mother Scigel’s Syrup. Take a dose as directed, day by day, faithfully. You will find the system toned up. The little disquieting worries disappear one by one. Again, why P Mother Seigel’s Syrup deals with the stomach and makes it do its own work in the proper way. In igestiou, the root cause of uinetenths of human suffering, once corrected, you get well. Your other troub cs arising from indigestion disappear they cannot exist with a digestion et right b y Mother SeigeTs Syrup. Mrs M. Majoram, 51, Barwou Park Hoad, Bt, Peter’s, N.8.W., writing on June 23rd, 10U8, says : “I used to suffer terribly from indigestion, and existence was a burden to me. Various medicines which I tried afforded only temporary relief, and I despaired of finding a cure, when a lady friend urged me to try Mother Seigel’s Syrup After using two bottles of the Syrup, the worst symptoms of my complaint wore much reduced, and by the time I had taken nine bottles my recovery was complete.”

Chamberlain’s Congh .Remedy has proved itself, times out of number, to be an absolutely safe and reliable remedy. Analysis has proved that it contains no narcotics, and experience has proved its unfailing eliiea-y in coughs, colds, croup, influenza and even in warding off pneumonia. Doesn’t your commonsense prompt you to purchase a-bottle now and keep it in the house for cases of emergency If it doesn’t it should. For sale everywhere.—Advt.

WHAT ABE " MILLIONS T TOT® MAN 1 ' WHO IS ILL -jrr Only a bitter mockery. The work! % h full of delights in which he cannot share. He can buy them but not enjoy them, and is poor despite his millions. This is specially true of the dyspeptic—the man who cannot digest his food. When the stomach ceases to effectually perform its natural work, food ceases to nourish and causes pain, heartburn, wind, acidity, and a host of other troubles which spoil life. Perfect digestion is the foundation of sound health, and that is assured by the use of the world-renowned digestive tonic ana stomachic remedy, Mother Seigel’s Syrup. Mrs'. Maria Manuell, 91, Lennox Street, North Richmond, Victoria, writes on July 21st, 1908 : “ It would be impossible to overestimate tbe benefit Mother Seigcl s S} iup has conferred upon me. When my health was completely broken down (Inotigh indigestion, and I seal cel v dared to look at food. Mother Scigel s Syiup restored mo my lost health and strength, and that after many other methods of treatment had been tried in vain. MOTHER SEIGELS SYRUP
