A young man working for a settler ! in the Wairoa district suffered heavy I loss in a peculiar way recently. He ; had fed his dogs and left them tied in the usual manner. In half an hour he visited them, and found two oi them valued at £2O, quite dead, and the third was only saved with difficulty. The poor animals had been j attacked by a swarm of bees and stung to death. LAM E BACK.

Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is in* | tended for acute throat and lung disj cases, of which colds, croup and I whooping cough arc the most common. ! Those who have used it for years and ! are in a position to know its real value assent that it is without an equal for the treatment of these diseases. It not only cures colds and influenza but counteracts any tendency towards pneumonia. It is in almost universal use as a preventive and cure for croup and has never been known to fail. i A prominent member of the ShearI ers’ Union gave a Timaru Herald rej porter particulars regarding an inter- | esting suggestion. He said that if i the sheep-owners granted the men’s request, and raised the rates for shear., ing to 20s per 100, then the executive would favorably discuss a proposal that its members should wear nothing but all-wool clothes. He remarked j that, judging by the attitude of the j men, they were thoroughly in accord j with the idea, and it tilings went well he was certain that they would carry it out to a man. Shearers, he said, were like eveiy other class of workers : j they were prepared to stand by those l who stood by them, j NEVER NEGLECT A COLD. s A cold should never be treated lightly as it is always more or less serious. I Many people make the mistake of negi leciing a cold until some serious lung I trouble results. If every cold received the attention it should have the danger of this would be avoided. Every cold can be cured by the use of Chamberlan’s Cough Remedy. A bottle or two of this remedy taken when the cold is first contracted will promptly cure it and not only save doctors bills but much suffering and annoyance later on.

As showing the tremendous turnover at the Mataura freezing works during the past season (says the * Standard ’) it may be mentioned that no less than 183,000 sheep and lambs have been frozen. It is expected that before the season is completed the record will bo attained ; as it is at the present moment, the total stands second on the list by a few thousands only. In addition to this, the works have put through no less than 37,000 crates ot rabbits. Allowing each crate to hold 20 rabbits it will be seen that nearly 1,000,000 rabbits have been handled. What this means to those engaged in rabbiting is a matter of easy calculation. Do you know that croup can be prevented? Give Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy as soon as the child becomes hoarse, or even after the eroupy cough appears, and it will prevent the attack, it is a certain cure for croup and has never been known to fail.

Australia is following in the footsteps of England and New Zealand in regard to death duties, (says the ‘ Auckland Star ’) and very soon the only hope of escape for the rich man who dues not want to feel that a portion of his wealth must go after his death to the Stite.will be to migrate to Central Africa or the Cannibal Islands, or to move off this planet altogether. NEVER NEGLECT A BAD COLD. Never allow a cold to run its course. Too often its course is towards pneumonia. The first action when you have a cold is to relieve the lungs. This is best accomplished by the free use of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. This medicine liquifies the tough mucus and opens the secretions, A complete cure soon follows.
