Yesterday Mr P. C. Turn or, of Eketahnna, accompanied by Mr H. C. Robinson, of Masterton,motored in a new Argyie car from Wellington to Carter*in in three and a half hours. The run .was a trial one, and tbo car which Mr Tumor has just purobasßd in Wellington, was found to be an excellent type in eveey way. The 'Argyie' promises to oecome popular in the Wairarapa, several orders for this kind of car having been reoontly given by Wairarapa residents. At the sitting of tbo Masterton Magistrate's Court, yesterday, before Mr W. P. James, S.M., judgment for plaintiff by, default, was given in the case of Philip 0. Buokthought v. H.

A first offender was fined ss, in default 24 hours' imprisonment, for having been drunk. Some interesting remarks were made hy Mr O. F. C. Campbell, a vice-president of the New Zealand Rugby Union, when proposing at a Wellington Kugby Union function on Wednesday evening the toast of the "The health, prosperity, , and suocess of the South Afrioan team," now touring Great. Britain. He stated.that the team included some members of the late Boer foroes, which were playing in friendly contest shoulder to shoulder with men who had fought for Britain. "One touch of nature makes the whole world kin," and it seemed to him that one touab of football makes the whole world kin. Most of them who had played foobtall had felt that spirit of comradeship, and it must be that football would bring about that spirit not only in South Africa, but between nation and na tlon. They heard of football being played in France and America, and these sports of ours might exeroise a greater influence on national relations than any of us thought of. j FACTS ESTABLISHED AT COURT. ' In an action, the cause of which was flagrant misuse of our firm name and other gross misrepresentation by an imi fating company, which was tried before his Honor, Ch'eE Justice J.

CONVINCING EXPEBIENCK. "I was badly scalded some months ago," writes Mrs Knight, storekeeper. Lutwyche (Q), "and after trying many remedies gave up the idea of their giving me any relief. I was about to call in a doctor, when I remembered Chamberlain's Pain Balm was highly recommended for burns and scalds, and concluded to give it a trial. The way it stopped the pain and reduced the inflammation and swelling in such a short time was really magical. This experience convinced me that it is a splendid liniment, and ever since I have been recommending it to my customers and friends." For sale by T. G. Mason, Chemist Masterton. INDIGESTION Is always due to a stomach which is too weak to digest what you eat. It needs rest —you can't rest it by going/without food. That would mean starvation. But Dr Sheldon's Digestive Tabules do the stomachic work. In the meantime the tired organ is regaining fresh strength. Before long it will be as strong as ever. A temporary attack can be cured at once. A case of long standing naturally takes more time. But the first dose bringa relief, and a complete cure is certain in the near future. You don't have to diet, Dr Sheldon's Digestive Tabules will digest any kind- of wholesome food. Try them for a week and see how much better you feel. For sale by H. E. Eton, Chemist. Masterton, J.
