Internally there is a world of room, supplied with every known novelty of approved excellence, while the finish, fittings, and deoorations aro of a very oostly nature, and "Magnifi. cant in their exquisite simplicity." The main saloon is finished in white mahogany throughout in the Moorish style. There is something regal about the fittings of this apartment. The ceilings and beams are finished in white mahogany, with attractive frescoed panels. In the centre •■ of the large arched skylight "Jtare hangs : a massive and elaboftly constructed Moorish chandelier, finished in gold bronze and oxidised silver,' Holding four oil lamps and eight electric lamps. Mirrors are fitted over the mantel and between the side i lights, and also on both sides of tlwA large doors, The room will be unholstered in blue plnsli and trimmed with old gold passementerie. The curtains are made to match the furniture, and the floor carpeted with a handsome dutch nig arid blue Axminister filled to match the covering, Mr.Astor's private apartments are fitted up in the most sumptuous fashion?, and all the art of the decorator has been lavished on', the ladies quarters, The Nourmahal is 250k' long, she spreads 7,000 ft of oanvas and her engines are WOO horse power

THE BAD AND WORTHLESS are never, mutated' or comtierjeitf* This.- is especially true of a fanf| medicine, and it ispositive proof that the remedy imitated is of the highest value. A& soon as it had been tested rf and proved by the whole world that 7, Hop Bitters was the purest, best arid most valuable family medicine on earth, many imitations sprung up and began to steal the notices in which the press and the people of the country had expressed the merits of H. 8., and in every way trying to induce suffering invalids to use their stuff instead, exporting to make money on the credit and good name of H. B. Many others started nostrums put up in similar style to H, 8., with variously devised names in which the word "Hop" or " Hops" were used in a way to induce people to believe they were the same as Hop Bitters. All such pretendedremedies or cures, no matter what their' style or name is, and especially those : with the word "Hop" or "Hops" in their name or in any way connected;', with tbem or their name, are imitations '-JJU, or counterfeits. Beware of Touch none of them. Use nothing bft. genuine American Hop Bitters, witT a bunch or cluster of Green Hops on the whito label, and Dr Souk's name.blown in the glass. Trust nothing else';: Druggists and Chemists are warifecK against dealing in imitations or coMtiK feits. . ;<■"'.■ .,'.-:..: ,:;v,:>^ Mr John Watt, Bookseller,- Masterfdn;'" has. now on view a lar?e assortment,of;■ photographs,- Christmas carda, consialitia '•'■'• of Wellington, Auckland, Dunediri," Christchuroh, and-Fiji views, all at'the '• uniform price of one shilling.
