EXHIBITION AT BRUSSELS.
IMPERIAL ARRANGEMENTS. WELLINGTON, September 2. Reuter's Agency at London has re«rive3 the following from the exhibitions branch of the Board of Trade for publication in Australasian newspapers : — The part to betaken by the Home Government- in the Brussels Exhibition of next year T^endera it, from an Imperial point of view, the most- important international exhibition yet held out-side the United Kingdom. For the first time the organisation of the British section abroad is in official . hands. A new department of the Board of Trade, .'known as the exhibitions' brajicb, has undertaken this work; and it is not only; offering unique facilities to British exhibitors, but is carrying on an energetic campaign throughout the couaitTy to secure that the section shall be thoroughly representative of the manufacturing strength and commercial prestige of the United Kingdom v The Prince of Wales, who is president "of, fcbe Royal Commission for the exhibitions at Brussels, Rome, and Turin, has shown a keen personal internet in tho movement, and has appealed to manufacturers on patriotic grounds to make it an umnifit-akeab-le success. Moreover, the section is to be rendered, specially effective in appearance, its architectural style being one of unusual elegance and dignity. It will be so situated in the industrial buildings that the other foreign sections will be reached by passing through it. In tlie machinery Hall the commission haa secured in the central bays more than one-third of the enlire space, and there wilJ be a ver\ imnressive exhibit of machinery in motion. These arrangements follow the report of the International Exhibitions Committee, which two years ago recommended the creation of a new permanent organisation in order to meet the | grievances and relieve the discouragement of British exhibitors. The facilities offered include the free provision of showcases, unskilled labour for the installation, a suite of rooms for the transacting of business, and highly skilled interpreters, with the defrayal of half charges made for motive power, and a still larger reduction on the freight of returned goods. Much interest attaches to the various nevr ! schemes of the collective exhibition. The chemical industry, the greajt textile trades, the Nottingham lace trade, and others will be represented by- joint ex- , hibite arranged in the case of each by • its. own members or by a trusted expert. I Thus, instead of scattered individual disj plays, the section will show the choicest t products of each trade effectively. It is I expected that Brussels, which is verj ■ accessible . fxpm London, and on the. high, j roads to other European ountries, will j next summer be the resort of large numi bers of visitors from the United Kingdom i and all parts of the Empire.
DO YOU SUFFER FROM GOUT? Has Gout got you in its grip? Do you suffer from Rheumatism, Sciatica, Lumbago, Rheumatic Gout, Stone, or Gravel? Perhaps you have bought liniments, plasters, and embrocations, and found that although) they brought temporary relief, the old" trouble soon returned. -* Or .perhaps yoi* tried some large-ly-advertisedJoure-aJls, and pills which claim to cure every ailment, ; including Rheumatism — of . course, they i too absolutely failed to ' giv<*' relief. i Now, in fairness to yourself, in [ fairness to us, we want you to give , RHEUMO a trial.. RHEUMO will nob cure any and every trouble, but it posi- , tively cures Rheumatism, Gout, Sciatica,I Lumbago, Stone, or Gravel. All these? j troubles aTe ,due to one cause only — excess j uric acid in the blood. This excess ,mayj be duo to several causes: tho main ones is the failure of th© kidneys to do their work. You cannot be cured until the excess .has been removed. Liniments andl 1 pills, although cheap, can never do this l- , RHEUMO is the one medicine that will cure quickly and effectually. At all! ! chemists and storee, 2s 6d and 4s 6d.
