During a scene in the House of Representatives in Melbourne iecently, Sir William Lyue was reported to have referred to a Minister as “ you dirty little cow.” Sir William Dyne explained in the Sydney Daily Telegraph that he referred to the Minister merely as “a dirty little coward.” Patience can be carried too far. It is not, as a rule, in this world, but the possibility remains, and an illustration comes, very naturally, from Ireland. The fair plaintiff in a breach of promise case has been non-suited under the Statute of Limitations. Eight years had passed since there had been any communication between the parties. The Magistrate at Oamaru has a peculiar case in hand, reports a Southern contemporary. Sherwin Bros., jewellers, have sued the Mayor, councillors, and burgesses of the borough for £2O damages because the corporation dustmen took away as rubbish a box of workshopjsweepings. One of the plaintiffs stated that jewellers are careful to keep their sweepings ; the box which defendants’ servants removed contained two years’ sweepings, and he put their value at because he had sent Home and got ros for a four years’ collection. That lot was also taken by the dustmen, but he followed them and recovered it. Mr W. Cox, Kumitray-st., Ballarat, Me., writes : “I Lave been a great sufferer from rheumatism aud having obtained the greatest relief by the use of Chamberlain’s Pain Balm I cannot speak too highly of it. Whenever I feci the rheumatic pains coming on, I give the affected parts a few applications and it always arrests the attack, I know several people who have used Chamberlain’s Pain Balm and they all speak in the highest praises of it." For sale everywhere.— Advt. An illustration of one of the advantages of belonging to the Southland Sawmill Workers’ Union, and of the readiness of the members to do what they can to relieve cases of distress, has recently come to light (says the Southland Times). In July last, a young maii who had been a member of the Union for only a few weeks, was killed as the result of an accident in the bush at Niagara. At the instance of the Union, an appeal lund was instituted, and at a meeting one night last week the Secretary reported that the sum of 14s 6d from some 36 mills in Southland, had already been subscribed for the benefit of the young man’s mother. Subscriptipns have still to come to band trohi about 10 or 12 mills, and the full amount will be laid out to the best advantage of the beneficiary. A little forethought may save you no end of trouble. Anyone who makes it a rule to keep Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy at baud knows this lo be a fact. For sale everywhere.— Advt.
