INCOME TAX RETURNS. The income tax returns of the United States reveal the fact that the richest region in the world is the Second 'Avenue district, which includes two square miles of the west side of Manhattan Island, reaching from Twenty-fourth street to the end of the island. Fifteen thousand persons paid income tax in this district, indicating that their aggregate annual income is ,£200,000,000, an average of over £13,000 each. Bordering on this quarter is New York's alien tenement district, extending south from Fourteenth street, on the east side of the island. It includes one square mile with 600,000 residents, making it tile most populous spot on the earth's surface. KIEL CANAL. Statements have been published to the effect that the British Admiralty baa ascertained that the heaviest Gemma Dreadnoughts cannot negotiate the Kiel Canal, as the depth of water is insufficient. This is a nonsensical statement. The Kiel Canal was originally 29% feet deep, but it was subsequently deepened and widened so that it can take ths greatest Dreadnought afloat. The sluices at the Baltic end are 1072 feet long and 146 feet wide, and are the largest :a the world. The original cost of the canal was £7,800,000. The reconstruction cost £11,000,000. The Kiel Canal is sixty-one miles in length, a few miles longer than that of l'anama, and 3D miles less than Suti. The Panama Canal cost £80,000,000 and Suez £14,000,000.

ECZEMA IN ITS WORST FORM . CURED BY REXONA AT CII'IiJST- ; CHURCH. "My hair was acknowledged among ■ my acquaintances to be perfect, till I by • some means became afflicted with that most painful disease, Eczema," writes Mrs. M. Carrell, 04-Carlyle street, Sydenham, Christchurch, N.Z. ''lts painful irritations caused me to scratch and tear at my scalp as if I were demented. Words cannot describe any mental and physical gain therefrom. I received attention from several specialists on Eczema with the usual results. It- got worse, so I gave myself up as incurable, and being a young woman you can imagine my anxiety. At last I was per- j iuaded to try Rexona Ointment, and I have it alone to thank for my complete and thorough cure from the,abo.ve most painful disease. My head is now quite tree from all traces of the malady, and my hair, by the. regular use of Rexona Ointment is longer, finer, and my friends •say more beautiful than ever. I cannot find words good enough to express my thanks for the benefits received through' using Rexona, and sincerely hope all fellow-sufferers who read this will derive the same benefits as I consciously. I think they will if they give it a j Price, 19 «d and 3s. Obtainable everywhere.
