Special Advertisements. mo THE ELECTORS OF AUCKLAND CITY EAST. Gentlemen,—As my views on manyo important questions noW beforo tho public ha o never been declared; I think Itrightin soliciting your suffrages at once, though briefly to give an indication of what my opinions aro on some of these questions, leaving a more complete exposition to the time when I hope to have tho pleasure of meeting you face to face Should you do me the honour of solcctlng mo as your Representative, I Bhall endeavour to secure a more equitable distribution of Loans for Immigration and Pablio Works, and for Auckland some compensation for paßt injustice also, a division of grants for school buildings in proportion to the necessities of eduoational districts rather than on the basis of population. I consider that the Native Department should either bo abolished, or much reduced. That the Land Purchase Department should be entirely abolished after completing some of the most important purchases now in progress, after which the Government should purchase no land for revenue purposes. That every fae'lity should be afforded to Natives, by advnncing the necessary funds and otherwise, to have their land surveyed and their titles individualised. Thatamplo reserves should bo made for the Natives, and that tho remainder be sold or leased by auction through tho Waste Lands Board of tho District, at tho request of the Native owners, and offered at such upset price as may in each case bo fixed by them. That an ad valorem duty on every first disposal of such land) be paid by the purchaser or lessee, in consideration ot value given to such lands by immigration andpiblic works. I am opposed to the proposal to abolish multiple voting at Local Elections, and to the Maor dual vote. I approve of tho present system of secular education; of imposing a tax upon uncultivated land held for speculative purposes ; of rating Government unoccupied land for local works; of promoting the settlement of the country by selling Government lands on the system of deferred payments and occupation; of manhood suffrage, with a residential qualification; of sending members of the House to their constituencies, when they join a Ministry; of Triennial Parllamenta; of a member addressing his constituency during the recess, and resigning his seat when he finds that he has ceased to represent them. I approve of the Auckland members of the House of Representatives agreeing to sink all minor differences consulting together upon questions affecting the interests of the North, and (unless In cases in which principle is involved) unitedly taking Buoh action as .the majority may decide upon. J. MoCOSH CLARK.

During the prevalence of opidemics it Is but a simply wise and precautionary measure to fortify the pystem against a too easy susceptibility to disease. By bracing tho nerves and toning tho functions the organism resists tho operation of climatic influences, and whatevor miasma exists in the atmosphere passes off from the body, thus strengthened, in harmless exhalations. To effect this end, Udolpho Wolfe's Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps acts at once as a shield and safeguard.
