I'oiistablo;; Cbilbrtori' returned •;■ on Thursday evening -"from •'Aohanga, bringing with 'Mm : tbo liorse ami swag of tho unfortunate; man Gnlbraitli, who,. there is now no doubt, wasdrowned on the 11th inst,, but after a most diligent search,; lasting for three days, they, have not found the body, Our "local Chips arrived horo on Tuosday afternoon with his bridei after spending a short honeymoon in the Wairarapa. lie has built a very neat cottago on the bank of tbo Wbaroama near the bridge and lias taken his bride there, MrE. Sullivan, tho popular landlord of tlio Masonic hotel, Whitkataki, passed through hero on Friday with his bride from Wellington, and was mot with congratulations from all quarters. Why He Did Not Go to the HospitalHE COULD LEAP THROUGH THE AIR. My object in writing is two-fold; to express my ratitudo for a great benefit and to tell a short story which cannot fail to interest tlio feelings of many raauy others. It is nil about myself, but I have remarked that when a roan tolls the honeßt truth about himself he is all tho moro likely to bo of uso to his fellowcreatures. To begin, tlion, you must know I had long been raiiie or less subject to attacks of bronchitis, a complaint that you aro aware is very common and troublesome in Great Britain in certain seasons of tho year, Some monthsaeo I had a very severe turn of it, worse, I think than I over had beforo.. It was probably brought on by catching cold, as wo are all apt to do when we loust oxpect it. Weeks passed by, and my trouble proved to bo very obstinate.' It would not yield to mediciuo,and as I also began to have violent racking pains in my limbs and baok, I became greatly alarmed. I could neither oat nor sleep. If I had been a feeble, sickly man, I should have thought less strangely of it; but, as, on the contrary, I was hearty and robust, I feared somo new and terrible thing had got hold of me, which might make my strength of no avail against it, I say, that ivas tho way I thought. Presently I could not even Ho down for tho pain nil over my body. I asked my doctor wliiit he thought of my condition and h., frankly snid, "1 am aorry'tu have to tell you that you are getting'worse 1" This so frightened my friends, as well as inyaalf, that they said, " Tkniuts, j/ni! iniijt flo to the llmpihl; it miui be ij.w only cknc. for lift /" liutt didn't want to go to the Hospital. Who dons when he thinks he can possibly get along without dnim/ it f 1 am a laboring man with a large family depending on me for support, and 1 wight almost as well be in my grave as to be laid on my back in a Imspital unable to lift a hand for months, oiGnd knows him long. Right at this point I had a thought fl isli across my mind like a streak of sunshine on a clnudy day. I had hoard and read a good deal about Mother tfeigel > Curative Syrup, and I resolved, before consenting to be taken to the hospital, I would try that wellkuown remedy. On this I gavo op the doctors medicine and began taking the Syrup.' Mark the wonderful Trsult 1 1 had taken but three doses within twenty-four hours when I was seized with a fit of coughing, and threw ofT tho phlegm and mucus off my chest by tlio mouthful. The Syrup hud oosened and broken it up. Continuing with the syrup, tho racking pain which I believo came horn the' bitterand poison humours in my blood and joints, soon left mo, entirely, and I felt like going to sleep, and 1 did sleep sound and quiet. Then I felt hungry with a natural appotito, and as 1 ate I soon goi strong and well. I felt I ccitW leap through the air wil'i delight! r In a week I was able to go to my work again, It doesn't seem possible yet it is true, and tho neighbors know it. There aro plenty of witnesses to prove it. And therefore when I say 1 preach the good nows of tho great power of Seigol's ■tyrup to euro pain and disease far and wido, nobody will wondor at me, Thomas Canhino, 75, Military-road Canterbury; Kent. Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup is for tale by all chemists and mediciuovendora and by tho proprietors. A. J, White Limited, 85, Farringdou road, London, E. 0., England,
