Unrivalled for strength and purity is Sharland’s Baking Powder. Once fried—always used. Costs less than other compounds—worth more.

Something very* close to a first-class bull fight was witnessed near Levin yesterday. A bull was turned into a paddock in which a horse was grazing, ffnd his blood rose on discovering a mere, horse was trespassing on his domain. Fierce bellowings and much pawing of the earth should have -given the horse a hint that trouble was brewing, but it was only when a fiying bull with tail erect was onarging in his direction that, the intended victim scented danger. But it was then too late, for the bull inflicted a terrible wound in the animal’s side that completely disembowelled it, which must have entailed fearful agony. Luckily the incident was witnessed, and the horse was soon put out of misery.

The -wedding took place in Holy Trinity Church Woodville, recently, of Miss Mabel Hannah Dunckley, second daughter os the late Mr Janies Dunckley, and Mrs Dunckley, of Shannon, to Mr Thomas Guy Vaughan Hinckesnian, of .Cloebury Hall, Shropshire (England). The Rev. G. Digby -Wilson officiated, and Miss Grant was at the organ. The bride, who was given away by her brother-in-law, Ivlr C. F. Baker, of Papatawa, wore a frock of French grey eolienne, and hat of the same material lined with blue and gold brocade, with which her frock was also trimmed. Her bouquet was of violets and maidenhair fern, and she wore her gift from the bridegroom, of a gold wristlet watch. Miss Cecily Baker (a niece) was in attendance, and wore a frock of canary-coloured crepe de chine made with scalloped flounces, and hat of the same shade lined with georgette. Her bouquet was of bronze chrysanthemums and autumn-tinted foliage, and she too wore her gift from the bridegrooHn of a,gold bangle. Mr E. Hill was best man. The bride’s gifts to the bridegroom was a travelling rug and a suit case. After the ceremony the guests were estertained by Mr and Mrs C. F.
