There are at present ten flaxmills at work in Southland, employing some 300 hands, as against 40 in operation a few years ago, when there was a boom in the business. The cause of so many closing, says the "Southland News," was the drop in values in the Home market, and that millers had no other course t'b adopt is to be seen by the fact that whereas £3B a ton was once obtainable, the price is now £2O. The owner of several mills, in conversation with a representative of the "News," stated that he would not open again until the raw article was to be procured at a reasonable figure. Royalties he aJded, had not been reduced in sympathy with values, and there was very little in the industry. From fciie Bth to the 27th insfc, voople in Ma3terton will have an exceptional opportunity of securing pianos and organs of the highest quality on exceptional terms. A feature of the Dresden Piano Company, Ltd., is its calculated trustworthiness. It stocks the best pianos and sells them in the best way—the way, that is, that best suits individual clients. The instruments offered at this annual sale are instruments specially imported for Masterton, instruments that have not previously been offered for sale in the Dominion. The Company will make exceptional terms of payment, earnestly desiring to meet the convenience of all responsible buyers. Mr T, B. Hunter, the local representative, and Mr M. J. Brookes, the North Island Manager, are both at hand. Their experience and knowledge may be commanded by any person interested. To buy a piano is a task of delicacy. Requirements differ: for some a Lipp, for some a Steinway, for some a Konisch, and for some a Broadwood. The company will help you to find out just what you want, and will see that you get all the satisfaction you can possibly expect. 2

Not long ago one of my carters came home with a veiy severe attack of colic and diarrhoea, and ic only took tws doses of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea llcmedy to fix him up in good shape. I never go away on a trip without a bottle of this hh dicine , for I find that change of water of'en affects one." For sale by all chemits and storekeepers
