ONE WORD IN TIME.

is better than Two Afterwards. A Chance to Profit by Another’s Experience, it is a strange thing how people will pul a wav an opportunity until too lute. It’s only little things that go to make up our every-day Ido; the trouble is wo don’t pay sufficient attcTiiion to them. Backache is «i little Hung. Sometimes it comes after a hard day’s work, or a slight cold. “It will pass of,” you say, “it’s only ( the residt of over-taxing the hack.” It isn’t the fault of your hack, hut your kidneys. Tho exertion of straining has interfered with their delicate mechanism. You call it backache, huh it really is kidney ache. If tho kidneys are not relieved, chronic disorders sot in, and this is where tho “little thing” should not bo passed over. This man has learned to appreciate what delay means:— Mr Samuel Loveridge, Fnlford Street, New Plymouth, says:—“For a long time, off an,d on, 1 have suffered from backache, and the attacks were at limes so bad that I had to knock off work. My back was so stiff and ilamo that I could not stand straight jafter bending. I despaired of ever getjting a cure, but fortunately heard of ■ Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills. These Pills have cured mo. I am now quite free of the pains, and strongly recommend all working men who suffer from backache to give Doan’s Packache Kidney Pills a trial.” Twelve years later Mr Loveridge confirms the above: —“I am pleased to bring tho above statement up-to-date by telling yon that 1 am si ill well today. f always keep a bottle of Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills hy me, and take an occasional dose, just as a precaution, and because I think tiro kidneys need a tonic mmetimes.” Wo fed the need of a good kidney remedy as wo grow older, for the kidjneys become weak with years of work. Then give your kidneys the help they I need by taking the great kidney and bladder specific-—Doan’s Backache Kidjnoy Pills. For safe by all chemists and [storekeepers at 3s per bottle (six hoti ties 16s fid) or w” 7 be posted on receipt of price by Foster-McClellan Co., 1 76. Pitt Street, Sydney. !

Mr Speaker: “That term must ho withdrawn.” Mr Buick: “I said ‘what they call a rat.’ ” Mr Speaker; “The term must bo withdrawn.” Mr Buick; “Very well. I shall say the lion, member has a kink.” .Mr Lsitt; “Kink is very much better.” (Lornl laughter.) Mr Buick went on to say that when ho was at Trentham and saw the sick soldiers—many of them sick nigh unto death—accommodated in the club’s buddings, lie was giad he was a racing man and not g wowser. ( Hear, bear, and laughter.) -Men o( tlie class ( ,f the lion, member said “Han’t gamble,” hut that very gentleman had been gambling all bis life, lie bad h c ,>n gambling on prohibition, but he had not been able In pick up a stake yet. (Bond laughter.) He challenged ;the lion, member to tell the I louse what his “clique” had done for the sick, and wounded-soldiers. Had they ccted as the racing clubs and given (he great M r part of their profits for ■ this purpose? i Mr J, T. iM. Hornsby emphasised that the Wellington> Racing Club had not handed its buildings over to the (lovernment voluntarily. 'Jhe buildlings bad been commandeered, and the lclub could not help ilsell. If it were I necessary to recompense the club for ■allowing its buildings to be used for patriotic purposes bo could not see 'that tlie club's action could be regarded as sporting. If Ibis were sport he ;was glad he was not a “sport.” I Mr ,1. Payne (Crcy Lynn): “And now we shall take up the collection.” (Loud and prolonged laughter.) Mr Hornsby: “The loud laugh that proclaims the empty mind.” (Renewed laughter, ! Mr Payne continued that he had been on a racecourse only once in bis life, but be was not against racing. He recognised that sport was a necessity, and ho deplored the “wowserjug” which was so oiten heard in the House and in the country. He was certainly of the opinion that the Wellington Racing Club should he recompensed for the days it had lost. Mr H. CL Ell (Christchurch South) was opposed to the amendment. He deprecated the continual cry of “wowser” which was always hoard in the House whenever a member spoke his mind with regard to racing and gambling.

||. T. J. Thacker (Christchurch Esist) said that hundreds of people got their living out of racing, and as they were to he taked for war purposes they ought io h c given every reasonaide facility for carrying on their business. He believed that the Wellington Racing Club would baud over all the clear profits of future meetings for the provision of accommodation for sir!: soldiers other than that contained in tlie club’s stand. Sir Joseph Ward (Minister for Finance) emphasised that the proposal of the Government was not to add permanently to the club days ol racing. It was proposed only to restore a right to a community from which the Government had taken a right. Ihe question of the ethics of racing or gambling was not involved, nor was it the time to discuss whether the “tote” was right or wrong. The House was asked only to do justice to the club The House divided on the call ol Mr Hornsby. The Council’s amendments were adopted by 52 votes to 7.
