A CURE FOR ECZEMA. Of all the diseases of the 6kin and scalp wliioh torture and disfigure mankind, three fourths are eezcmatous. Millions are born with eczema and it is the only thing other millions have left when they die. Neglect in infancy and childhood, irritating conditions affecting the skin, ignorance of its real nature, improper remedies and many otlMr causes that might be mentioned lavo created a chronic eczema ivhich, with varying severity, has afflicted countless numbers during their entire lives. F,; j zema is purely a skin disease. It is not hereditary nor contagious and is impartially distributed among the rich and poor, the "high and low. The aganising itching and burning of the skin is the most distressing symptom and is caused by the .bursting of little vesicles filled with acrid fluid which burns as with firp the denuded skin. Xew vesicles form, fill and bnrst, scales form upon scales, and crusts upon crusts until disfigurement is added to torture. T'le most successful cure for eczema, who ther applied to the youngest infant or the oldest person, is Cuticura, the great, skin cure. For more than thirty years it has retained its reputation :is the purest, sweetest and most efficient of curatives. .That those who have suf fered long and hopelessly and who have lost faith in everything may make trill of Cuticura without charge, Messrs I!. Towns* and Co., IB Tinftus sctreet, Sydney, N.S.W., will send a generous trial package to any address, post free, together with a 32-page pamphlet, giving accurate description and treatment of every form of eczema, as well as other affections of the skin, scalp, hair and hands.

In his interesting account of "Earthquakes and Other Movements," .Mr. Hogben remarks: "On 23rd January, 18.53, a sudden elevation of Hie land took place in the neighborhood of Wellington: the land" rose about eight feet, sinking again afterwards three foot, so that the permanent rise, was five feet; to the north and east of Wellington the rise is said to have 'been greater still—as much as nine feet on the west side of the Wairarapa Valley. On the other hand, the west side of Cloudy Hav, north of Blenheim, was depressed to the extent of five feet. Naturally, such an extensive sudden movement of a large traet of country (4(500 square miles, it is estimated) caused a severe shaking ot the earth's' crust, or earthquake, the vibrations or waves of which travelled, all over the country; other shocks occurred for weeks afterwards, until, indeed, this part of the earth's crust had resumed a more stable position."
