Holloway's Pills and Ointment. —Irritable Bowola.y To be able to arrest the progress of bowel complaints must be a very desirable object: nothing will accomplish this so safely and certainly as Holloway's Ointment well rubbed twice a-day over the abdomen. It» has an advantage over every other astringent, since it restrains the purging without interfering with the stomach or liver. On reaching the bowels this unguent soothes theirlrrltated lining and simultaneously relieves all griping, purging, vomiting, disagreeable eructations, and gives general case, without danger of checking the diarrhoea too suddenly. In dysentery the same treatment, aided by proper doses of Holloway's Pills, will allay the excessive straining, stop the discharge of slimy matter, and painlessly prevent botli ulceration and danger.—fA.PVT.|

MILLER’S Office, Bull and Mouth Hotel; Private Residence,. 3 Canning-terrace, Carlton-street, Melbourne. Abbidoed from the “ Australasian. Sketches ” of 4th August, 1877. “ Our front cut this month is a sketch from life of one of these drawing of a £2OOO sweep on the Melbourne Cup. The process is very simple. The committee are chosen from among the subscribers by ballot, and invited to meet on a certain evening. Our artist was one of these privileged few. At eight o’clock, 30 subscribers having assembled, a chairman was elected, and then two scrutineers. Two thousand marbles, with the numbers cut in plain figures on them, 1 are handed round, in trays of 100 each, to the members of the committee, for the purpose of being counted. This done, they are placed in a barrel. Then on plain marbles the names of the horses are written ; these are put in a smaller barrel on the table in front of the chairman. A volunteer is called for to -' chubu’ the larger barrel, and slips of paper being supplied to the committee, everything is ready, A marble is then drawn out of the larger barrel, the number called out and entered in a book, and then passed to the scrutineers. Then a horse is drawn out of the smaller barrel, and number and horse go together; and so on till the whole of the horses are drawn. Everything is conducted with the utmost fairness, and there is no possibility of anything crooked' The affair lasted about an hour and a half." . Result slips of the drawing are forwarded to country subscribers, and the amount is divided thus:— CUP, 18 78. Mr. J. J. MILLER may be consulted as above, by letter only.
