S A correspondent of the Wairanura '■ Daily News tells the following:—show's ing the superstition of the Maori, the i- following is told »iy a man who, as a '' general thing, tolls the truth. He says: "I was riding along with a Maori the n other day, and lie-,had.occasion to rec move his hat from hie head. .1 noticed i-1 him look reverently in the hat and very ;- carefully replace ii on his head. I asked ~ him what lie was taking s'ueh care over, e and he took oil his hat and passed it r to me, telling me to look inside. I did , so, and nearly dropped oft" the horse i with the jump T gave. I knew I was > sober, but there,in the hat was an enor-1 l mous black spider with large hairy legs, j . just the kind to haunt ybu after taking' 5 an overdose of had beer. I quiclii? . fussed the hat back, and asked the i Maori what he had that there for. 'You ; «"<; that spider?' said he. I said I did. . ■«ell. that is good luck. If I keep him ; there T have good luck. If I kill lumpy korry, I dunno.' Questioning him ' further, T learned that the spider had taken up its residence there some weeks before, and had been treated with the greatest care by its landlord." Mr. M. A. McFarlane, Tobacconist, Maryborough. VSc, writes: "My bo\ had been trombled with bronchitis fmsome time, and though I had cxp.-r' opinion" and their proscriptions he sti'' seemed to be getting worse. I was. really afraid that he was developing consumption. At length I concluded ti give Chamberlain's Cough Remedy " trial, and can truthfully say the result was wonderful. From the very first he commenced to pick up, and 'is to-day quite .healthy. At the last symptom of an attack I now give hint a few doses. an<l it always checks the complaint at once. -Have also given Chamberlain"' Cough Remedy to my other childre.i when attacked with Croup, with ttv-' same good results."
