An American who has recently visited Italy writes : “ Venice is a nice place, only I must say I think it’s damp. It must have rained tremendous before our arrival, for at. present we can only get about the streets in boats.” The Echo says: Superintendent Gillies’ black elephant, the road steamer, has found employment, it seems, at the North Manukau Head, having been purchased by Mr. R. P. Gibbons with the intention of working it there on the beach in the dragging of timber from the Pararahi sawmill to the shipping wharf. It is calculated that it will haul as much as eight or ten thousand feet of timber at a time, and will doubtless be a more profitable investment for its present owner than it was for the Provincial Government Holloway’s Pills and Ointment. — During piercing winds and excessive variations of temperature everyone is more or less liable to internal and external disease. Throat, chest, liver, bowels, kidneys, and skin, al[ suffer in some degree, but may be relieved by rubbing in this Ointment, aided by proper deges of the Pills, for administering which full directions accompany each box ; in truth, anyone who thoroughly masters Holloway’s “ instructions,” will in remedying disease, exchange the labor of an hour for the profit of a lifetime. All bronchial, pulmonary, and threat disorders require that the Ointment should be thoroughly well rubbed upon the skin twice ; day with considerable briskness, gvertt peroic'ence and regularity.—Advt.
