On Friday afternoon last the mem- . bers of the Konini Ladies' Hockey Club and friends gave a social afternoon in the Konini HaJl to Miss Stone, who was married on Tuesday morning to Mr Russell. From the Hookey Club ; Miss Stone, who was a prominent player, received a handsome silver teapot, sugar basin and cream jug, and several useful articles from the friends assembled, the presentations being made by Mrs D. Kelly, who spoke in glowing terms of the manner in which Miss Stone had always assisted with social entertainments in Konini. Oscar Stone, the lad who met with a serious accident recently, is making splendid progress towards recovery, and will be out of the Pahiatua Hospital in about a week's time. Mrs Wade, wife of Mr J. Wade, who last week underwent a serious operation at the Hospital, is, under the care of Dr. Dawson, making splendid progress towards convalescence. The mild weather that has been experienced here during the past week, has had a very beneficial effect on the grass, which has grown • very quickly. Cows just in are milking well, and the Konini factory is now running every day. I understand that several large suppliers are supplying the factory this season f«»r the first time. Mr 3 J. Ivlorwick, Grey-st., Shortland, Thames, N.Z., says: "Some time ago when my little boy had his hands severely burnt, Hanson & Co. recommended me to try Chamberlain's Pain Balm. I applied the Hniment as soon as possible' and after a few applications the pain disappeared, and his hands healed without scars. Since then I have used Chamberlain's Pain Balm for headache, toothache, and rheumatism, and I find that it always gives relief. I can recommend it to anyone wanting a good family liniment.' For sale by all chemists and storekeepers Mrs Sarah iVicßurnay, Upper Hutt, N.Z., says: "Chamberlain's Cough Eemedy is the best medicine for croup in children that is made. I have no fear in recommending it, as, after a lengthy trial, I have found it to have no bad effect. Have used it for years, and will have no other. All my friends say the same."
