There are so many brands of cigarettes that these (and their number is legion) who indulge in those luxuries are often at a loss which will give them the greatest pleasure in smoking. Having tested some samples of Salmon snd Gluckstein's ''Gold Fiake" cigarettes sent us by Mr. J. Avery, the local wholesale agent, we can strongly recommend this brand which for aroma, coolness and excellence of make, should ensure their being a prime favourite.

A reminder is given of the sale by Mr. Newton King at 2 o'clock to-day of the furniture and effects of Mrs. Bell at Fitzroy, who has leased her house.

The Premier yesterday turned the water into the head race of the irrigation woiks at Levin." In the coarse of his speech he mentioned that lime was very much wanted in the district, and said it would be a good thing to have lime kilns in the hands of the Government, and te supply lime to settlers at cost priee. It was a kindly thought of Mr, Newton King that prompted him to send to the railway station a sufficient number of boxes of fruit to supply one for each car of the returning excursion train on Thursday. Naturally this acceptable gift was greatly appreciated, and was looked upon as a crowning pleasure to a memorable day's enjoyment for onr country visitors. A valuable horse belonging to some Parihaka natives came to grief on the breakwater line on Thursday afternoon. The animal had evidently broken loose from its tether and got on to the line, the end of the rope apparently having got caught in the railway fence. When the 1.30 train was neaiing the Motaroa crossing the horse backed on to the train and was shot into the cattle stop. This train was brought to a standstill and the horse removed, but it was so badly injured that it had to be killed.

AIfTBB exoiting times the hearth of children requires very speaial looking after. That the child is father to the man,' physically as well as mentally, is one of those truths that can never be too often insisted upon, and the thoughtful parent will be careful above all to see that her child has the proper nourishment to establish its constitution.
