SAD FATALITY.

INFANT DROWNED AT IHAKARA. A sad accident happened at Hiakara yesterday, by which Douglas Reginald Butt, the only child of Mr and Mrs Reg. Butt, of Potts’ Road, lost his life. The little boy was only sixteen months old, and while his parents were engaged in milking in the afternoon was left playing about the house with two visiting children. He appears to have wandered off by himself. He was missed immediately, and Mr Butt was informed. The father, after a hurried look round the adjoining paddock without result, went to the creek nearby and there found the body of the little toddler floating in threo feet of water. Medical aid was summoned, and artiticial respiration applied for an hour, but unfortunately without success. Great sympathy will be felt for Mr and Mrs Butt in the untimely misfortune that has befallen them.

An inquest was held by Mr W. C. Nation, District Coroner, when a verdict of accidental death was returned.

THE PROPER WAY TO BUY TEA is not by the price per pound, because a groat proportion of the "low price" teas on the market to-day aro inferior Dutch teas from Java. Buyers will be well advised to stick to that woll-known brand of fine Ceylon tea, "Amber Tips," which has in the pait proved its worth in every corner *ftlie Dominion. "Amber Tips" is a blend of British-grown fine Ceylon teas, packed by a British firm. Fine teas have risen in price, but tho packers of "Amber Tips" guarantee that the old standard of quality will be fully maintained. Tea buyers should bear in mind that the world’s leading medical journal, "The Lancet," after conducting a thorough investigation, declared that flue teas have twice the physiological value of common teas, and are really beneficial to health. It also pointed out that fine teas make for a very important domestic economy, in that much less is used, and a better cup of tea is obtained. Fine quality at a moderate price has built for "Amber Tips" tho largest t*» trade in New Zealand. Don’t ther«dore be persuaded to purchase some other tea because it is cheaper, but stick to the old favourite "Amber Tips,” which is sold by all good family grocers. Prices have been further reduced 4d per lb, but no reduction iu quality. Now sold at 3s 2d ani 3« 4«1 per lb.—Advt. | (4)
