Pain Balm heals bruises, burns and scalds in less time than any other treatment. It is “antiseptic/’ that is, it prevents putrefaction, and by so doing generally prevents an unsightly scar remaining after the injury is healed. For lame back, lumbago and neuralgia, Pain Balm has no equal. It has the quality of “getting to the right spot.” No sufferer from these distressing affections should defer a trial of this remedy. One application gives relief. Try it. A. Manov sells it. 3

A man who ran a tobacconist shop and gambling saloon on the other side many years ago, but who was suddenly converted, and adopted pious wavs, studied for the Ohurch, and is now preaching in this colony. His billet is anything but a snug one, too, and ho enjoys very little in the way of luxuries. He tells a yarn about visiting a town for a few days leisure not long ago, and receiving a note at his lodgings whither he had apparently been tracked. It contained, a five-pound note, and ran thus : ‘For goodness sake, old man, go and get yourself a suit of clothes. I met you in the street today, and never saw you look so shabby.’ The note was signed by a one-time notorious confidence man, well kno.vn in Melbourne.

A young woman named Jane Rowe was arrested at Launceston (Tasmania) a few daj T s ago, charged with horsestealing. It is alleged that she took a horse, saddle, and bridle from a farm at Deloraine the other night, and rod© into the city attired m male clothing.. In order t,o throw the detectives off*the scent she changed her clothing and went about the city in ordinary dress. She was recognised, however, and arrested. Other charges of horse-stealing are to be preferred against her. A speaker at a banquet at Levin ■expressed the opinion that the Government was making a great mistake by educating farmers’ daughters up to the Sixth and Seventh Standards. The speaker thought that when the girls had reached the Fourth Standard, the Government should ‘top off* their education with some training in domestic economy, so that the girls could make a pound go further than the average farmer’s wife now could. The uproarious applause with which this sentiment was greeted imnlied that the auditors had personal experience of the truth of the allegation, but the speaker gave matters another complexion by alleging that ‘every farmer thought his wifewas the best in the world, but when it came to the point they were woefully wasteful.’ THE FIREMAN is in great danger from falling bticks or timber as well as from the flames. No fire is properly equipped without a supply oi Chamberlain s Pain Balm. This liniment is unexcelled for burns and bruises. One applica- | tion gives relief. Try it. A. Manoy sells-
