Prize Bloom has been scratched for the Welter Hack at the Hawke’s Bay Summer Meeting. The High Commissioner cables from London under date December 28th:—Markets are very quiet, and no business is doing on account of Christmas holidays. Nominally there is no change in prices. Alexander McTavish, who endeavoured to shoot Sntor, second officer of the Quito, early on Saturday morning aud then shot himself is still in a critical condition, although he has regained consciousness. McTavish is an insurance agent aud his father is said to reside in Wellington. Slight hope is entertained that he may recover. A conference has been concluded in Wellington of headmistresses of secondary schools in New Zealand. Matters relating to the free education regulations were discussed and recommendations tending to decrease the pressure of work and also to popularise and extend domestic instruction for girls attending these schools were passed for snhmisison to the Minister of Education.

Bankruptcy in the Auckland district has kept level with last year, the number of cases dealt with each year being exactly 56. For the most part the cases involved had no serious issues. Private assignments to the official assignee are becoming increasingly popular, over £20,000 being realised during the year on assets privately assigned him. In conversation with a Star representative Mr Gerald said the district is in a very favourable condition all round. No particular trade suffered in any shape or form aud both bankruptcies and private assignments mean nothing less than the elimination of the unfit and give no indication of a slmup or even of a >falliug-off in trade.

TWO SOVEREIGN REMEDIES. The Famous Sander and Sons’ Pure Volatile Eucalypti Extract was proved by experts at the Supreme Court of Victoria to possesss curative properties peculiarly its own, aud to be absolutely safe, effective and reliable. Therefore, do not aggravate your complaint by the use of one of the many crude eucalyptus oils which are now palmed off as “Extracts,” and from the use of which a death has been reported recently, Dirt insist upon the Genuine Sander and Sons’ Eucalypti Extract, and reject all others. For’ wrinkles, sunburn, pimples, blackheads, freckles, cracked hands, dry and inflamed skin use Sander and Sons’ Superba Skin Food. No lady should be without it. Allays irritation, produces a clear and spotloss complexion, and a smooth and supple skin. Remember that Sander and Sons’ Superba Skin Pood is not an ordinary face cream, and unlike any of them, produces a permanently beautifying effect. Chemists and stores.
