Sittings.

The land controversy in this country illustrates to perfection, (says the Christchurch • Star') the struggle that is going on in every civilised country, in one shape or another, between those who endeavor to promote the welfare of the community as a whole and those who seek to satisfy the desires of the individual. Never hesitate about giving Chamberlin's Cough Remedy to children. It contains no narcotic of any description and can be given with confidence. As a quick cure for coughs and colds to which children are susceptible, it is unsurpassed. Sold by Henry Hotop, chemist, Cromwell. Mr P* Gleeson, an Auckland brewer is having constructed in that city what will probably be the tallest building in New Zealand. It is to be of ten storeys, and is being erected in High street. SPEAK HIGHLY OF IT. Everyone speaks well of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy after using it, and its best friedns are people who have used it for years. They have found that it can always be depended upon, and while they may occasionally try other remedies that they see advertised, or that are recommended to them by friends, they are almost certain to return to Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and acknowledge it to be the best and most reliable medicine they have ever used for coughs, colds, and croup. Sold by Henry Hotop, chemist, Cromwell. Th 6 Government have had a hundred proofs of the prevalence of the earth hunger in the South Island during the past year or two, and they should take much more vigorous steps than they have taken in the past to prevent it continuing unsatisfied. - Lyttelton ' Times.' NEEDED EVERY DAY. A good liniment, and one that can always be relied upon, is nowhere more appreciated than in the country. Scarcely a week passes but some member of the family has need of it. Chamberlain's Pain Balm is more widely known than any liniments for cuts, burns and sprains, and it not only gives relief but heals the wound in about one third the time required by any other treatment. The great power Chamberlain's Pain Balm has over pain is shown in the relief it affords in case 3 of acute and inflammatory rheumatism. Chamberlain's Pain Balm is also an antiseptic. Sold by Henry Hotop, chemist, Cromwell. The outward intinerary of the new San Francisco service will be : Auckland to Raratonga, 1633 miles ; Raratonga to Tahiti, 630 miles ; Tahiti to San Francisco, 3600 miles ; Auckland to San Francisco, 5863 miles. The route is practically the shortest that could be taken, and if the service is the success it ought to be, then before many years elapse a clas3 of vessel should be employed which will bring New Zealand within 25 or 26 days of London. LET IT BE KNOWN. The widest publicity should be given to the fact that summer diarrhoea and dysentery can be cured by the judicious use of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. It never fails. When reduced with water and sweetene.l it is pleasant to take, which is important when the medicine must be given to small children. For sale by Henry Hotop, chemist, Cromwell. The fact that the Auckland provincial district employs more young people under the age of 21 years than any other provincial dristrict in the Dominion was referred to at the annual meeting of the Auckland Provincial Employers' Association by the chairman (Mr D. Goldie). Auckland he said, employs 356 more than Otago aid Southland put together. 701 more than Wellington, and 802 more than Canterbury. At the sametime Auckland paid the largest! waees bill to shop assistants, namely, £271, 628. Wellington coming next with £238,680, or some £33,000 less. THIS WILL INTEREST MOTHERS. Chamberlain's Tablets are the ideal medicine for children. No more nasly medicines that you have to coax the child to take. After they have once taken Chamberlain's Tablets and realise how easy they are to take they will be ready for them again. They are perfectly safe for the youngest child and their use will not result in constipation. For sale by Henry Hotop, chemis-, Cromwell. A very painful burning accident happened to a'little daughter of Mr T. PreGce, River street, last week (says the '• Mataura Ensign.") It appears that the child, who is not quite seven years of age, had been ailing for upwards of a fortnight and had so far recovered that she was able to get out of her bed. She was standing at the. fire for a few minutes when suddenly her nightdress caught fire and she was speedily enveloped in flame. The child's screams brought her parents to her aid and Mr Preece wrapped his coat round the little one and smothered the flames. Drs Brugh and Rogers were quickly in attendance and found the child very badly burned. Her sufferings were relieved as far as possible and at latest advices she was doing as well as could be expected.
