What is Baid to bo a most reliable baking powder is the subject of a special notification in another column. It is called the "Balloon Brand Baking Powder," and as an honest article of exceptional reputation it certainly deserves a trial at the hands of everyone who experts good results when baking. It may be enquired for at any local storekeepers and it will be found to fully sustain its previously established character. The fact that anything made with it is "bound to rise" will be satisj factorily proved very quickly to those who use EaUoon Brand Baking Powder. The wholesale agents in Wellington are Messrd W. M. Bannatyne and Co., merchants.

A mild sensation has been caused at Temuka through an order being granted for the exhumation of the body of Mr. John Hayhurst, who died there about two years ago. Mr. Hayhurst was a Manchester man, and arrived in the colony many years ago. He worked hard in the bush in the North Island, and afterwards married a widow at Bank's Peninsula. The two were engaged by Sir Thomas Tanored as married couple on his station at Ash" burton. Their affairs prospered exceedingly, and on Sir Thomas leaving for the Old Country they became scle owners of the station on which they had been employed. The possession of other property was also obtained, and th wt>ll-known Greenhayes estate wae formed, which has an annual rent-rols of some £3OOO. Early in 1859 Mr. andl Mrs. Hayhurst visited the Old Country. On the return journey a son was born, who Is the present owner of the Greenhayes Estate. Some years later Mr. Hayhurst went to England alone, where lie stayed for several years. He died at Temuka in April, 1889, and his son took possession of the property under a will signed some years previously. Last year the new owner of the estate was unpleasantly surprised by th e arrival from England of a lady who claimed to be the legal wife of the late Mr. Hayhurst, and asserted that he was the father of two children, some eijcht or nine years old, who, she said, had been born after the marriage, She claimed the property of the deceased, and made certain representations, which led ultimately to the issue of an order by the Colonial Secretary for the exhu" ination of the body. By the last trip of the "Tekapo" for Sydney and Australian ports a parcel of butter was shipped to do the round trip as a practical test of a new Antiseptic

Fluid discovered and prepared by Mr W. B. Wood, chemißt,of the co-operative Orug Store, Cuba St., Wellington. The process is very simple. One part of Antiseptic Fluid is added to three parts of water, the butter being immersed thsrein and allowed to so remain until required. Mr Wood maintains that tresh butter can be kept by this means for many months. For further practical procf, arrangements have been made with a leading firm of Wellington merchants to forward three different lo f .s of bDtter to ' Liverpool, London, and Mancheater,thore to be examined and tested by experts. Its ' easy method of use, if found reliable) < will strongly recommend the preparation ] and we are giyen to understand that the i price is extremely reasonable. In . addition to the aboye, egps soaked in a ] 25 per cent solution can be kept per- ' feocly fresh for months and the most ( decerning person would not be able to i tell tho difference between a new laid j egg and a preserved egg. For keeping i fresh meat it is also invaluable. Meat 1 is simply painted with the solution, it retaining its freshness for several * days in the hottest weather, Mr * Woods holds many testimonials t from leading Wellington butchers 1 to this effect, it is a noteworthy . thing too that flies will not touch a carcass ' dressed with the Antiseptic. Steps have been taken by Mr Woodß te protect this [preparation by patent under the name of c S* Woods Tropical Antiseptic Fluid," t ,nd we haye do doubt that he will be t cell repaid for his trouble by future a 6BUItB. |
