Illustrates the New Zealand Christmas of roses, and offers a pleasing: contrast to the Old World snow and holly berries. The figures of the three children arc most gracefully drawn, and the subject is one that will appeal to every home. The peculiarly bright effect of this charming picture gives it a place by itself among works of the kind, and our readers will be interested to learn that no less than thirteen printings have cone to its production. "Flowers of New iaaland" is the second supplement, a very -rtistio and beautiful arrangement of blossoms of manuka and red and yellow kowai, with some typical photographs of youthful Maoris. The subject has been given nine printings, in order to do it justice, and this supplement we anticipate will be in very high favour with our artistic readers, and the many Old Country friends who receive "New Zealand Illustrated" each year. Third in the list comes a linely conceived picture to illustrate the Maori legend "Te Kanawaand the Fairies," which appears among the letterpress of this issue. The handsome chief, his terrified clansmen, and the multitudinous "good people," are all satisfying to the sympathetic reader of the story, and the artist has succeeded admirably in conveying the firelightglow into his scene. In the fourth (a two page) supplement are depicted the humours of "An Up-to-date Honeymoon Trip," the happy pair employing a motor-car in place of the usual reserved railway carriage. Our artist has tinted these drawings with most pleasing effect. The Number is enclosed in an elaborate cover lithographed in eight colours and gold, the front bearing a striking figure of a Maori warrior, painted from a recent photograph, and accurately dressed in valuable feather mat and flax piu piu, and wearing the chief's huia feathers. Views of Lake Wakatipu and the Bowen Falls are executed in monochrome and add considerably to the beauty of the design."

There is only one way to get rid of pimpies and other eruptions. And it's simple and easy enough. Cleanse the blood, improve the digestion, stimulate the kidneys, liver and skin, by the same means at the same time. The medicine to take is Hood's Sarsaparilla. This statement is confirmed by the experience of thousands whom this great alterative and tonic medicine has permanently cured. "I have great pleasure in saying a word in favor of Hood's Sarsaparilla. Last year my face was covered with pimples. After taking one bottle of Hood's Sarsaparilla the pimples disappeared. I am never without Hood's Sarsaparilla now." Ada Cook, "The Oaks," Friend St., Karori, Wellington, N. Z. mtMwim ?C.l.HoodCo„Lowell,Jfass,u.fcA.
