Tbe European Mail states. that Parliament is to be asked during the session to legalise a scheme of postal notes in conjunction with money orders, and suggests that the colonies would do well to follow up tbe same idea. It is proposed to issue notes of fixed sums of 2s 6d, ss, 10s, and 20s, the two first to be charged Id each and the two latter 2d each. The notes are to be payable to bearer at any savings bank or money order office, while, to ensure extra security, senders will be able to cross such notes, or make them payable at any particular office, and to insert the name of any payee, thus giving them all the safety of a crossed cheque payable to order. An important feature in the scheme is that these notes will be sold in books as well as singly, so that the necessity of going to a moneyorder office every time money is to be transmitted, and between certain hours of the day, will be done away with. What did He Mean ?— lt is told of a serious and somewhat absent minded astronomer that one morning he accompanied his wife to a wedding, and, with the rest of the guests, advanced to cong'ratalate the newlymarried pair. He shook hands gravely with them, but not a word did he speak. ' Why didn't you say something to them ?' reproachfully asked his wife. ' I don't know,' replied the absorbed professor ; ' I didn't think I had any new facts to impart.' < _»—■;»■—■-» Holloway's Pills. — The sultry summer days strain the nerves of the enfeebled and decripit, and disease may eventuate, unless some restorative tub as these purifying Pil'B, be found to correct the disordering tendency. Holloway's medicine givoa ease to the nervous system, which is the source oi all vital movements, and presides over every actfon which maintains the growth and wellbeing of the body. No one can over-estimate the necessity of keeping the nervts well Btrunsr, or the ease with which these Pills accomplish that end. They are the meet unfailing antidote to indigeßtiou, irregular circulation, palpitation, sick headache, »md costive ness, and have therefore attained the largest sale and highest reputation.
