SWEET are the necessities of childhood and youth, hence Providence haa wisely implanted in the young almost insatiable Jesire for sugar. Without thiß element largely mingled with its food, the healthiest born infant would die in a month. In vain ivonld it nestle en its mother's bosom, in rain its exposure to the warming sunshine, md in vain the softest blankets and warmest furs to encase its body, for the varmth which sustains human life cornea r rom within, mutt be generated by the nternal combustion of carbonaceous food as onnd in all sweets and fat. It ia the most nveterate of all prejudices in civilized life itat sweets hurt children ; on the contrary, hey ore a prime necessity, and to deprive hem of their candies, if pure, is barbarism — iV. W. Hall, A.M., M.D. Pure Confectionery only manufactured by x. H. THORNTON, Wholesale and Retail Confectioner, Manners-street, Wellington.
