Saith the Manawatu Daily Times: Spurred to protest because of alleged injustices inflicted on returned fighting men, a Rotorua vesident, with a reputation for patriotism and generosity, has been sentenced to three, months' imprisonment for saying indiscreet things "likely to interfere with recruiting." To interfere with recruiting in a country in which recruiting has been very properly done away with, and conscription very properly brought into force! If the law is an ass what must be said of some of its administrators! Tbe lady reporter of a Christchurch paper, speaking of the dresses at the Grand National meeting, wickedly writes:—'"One lady shod her extremeties, in such gleaming, glossy, creasless boots, and of such a length, that one was irresistibly reminded of the famous advertisement: "Wanted to ; iell, a piano, by a lady with varnished legs." [ A district soldier, who has had | nearly three years' experience, writing to his friends, says: "I wonder how the rumour that we are not well fed and clothed originated. It is entirely false. There is not a better clad nor healthier army than ours. Even the horses are as well kept as those you will see in any show ring. Not the slightest detail is overlooked in this British Army. If anything goes wrong someone is to blame, and very soon he hears about it."—Western Star. Whatever you do. do it well! Although the reward may be Bmall; All your rivals with ease to excel / Is the proudest achievement of all. And whatever you buy, buy the best! And successful results you'll assure, Thus in winter time, always invest I In woods' Great Peppermint Cure.
