Mr Henry Burling, senr., of is now 105 years of age, and is in good heallh. It is reported that Miss Gertie Campion, the noted aotrasii, who has been an iamate of the Cambridge Sanatorium for some months, is now almost cured, and intends shortly to return to the stage. Negotiations are proceeding for the sale of the Dannevirke gasworks to the borough. The offer of the syudiaate controlling the works amounts to a request for £15,000 the taking over of certain plant, whioh would probably bring the total up to close upon £20,000. Bishop Neligan, of Auckland, saya he fully agrees with S«r Joseph Ward, in regard to the prevalence of bridge-playing. He continued: —"While I am not prepared to say that it is a sin to play whist for penny points, I am convinced that bridge is a fruitful cause of gambling, and it would be a really national service if the women resolved in the present distress, to resolutely refuse to allow any games to be phyed for money in their houses." PREPARE FOR CROUP. The time wasted in sending for a phy sician, or for medicine, when a child shows symptoms of croup, often proves fatal. A reliable medicine, and one that should always be kept in the house for immediate use, is Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. It wilj prevent the attack, if (riven as soon as the child becomes hoarse, or even after the croupy cough appears. It is also the safest, as it contains no narcotics. For sale by T.
