THE DANGERS OF SURF BATHING.

AGONY WITH A LACERATED KNEE. AN EX-M.L.A. GIVES ZAM-BUK WARM PRAISE. “ Whilst bathing at Bronte,” says Mr M. J. MacMahon, ex-M.L.A., of 16 'Elizabeth street, Sydney, “ I was knocked on to the rocks by a breaker,' and received a large wound on my knee, exposing tho knee cap. For several days I suffered intense pain, and could not rest at night. I tried several well-known remedies without effect. Tho cut was festering, and rapidly getting worse. Knowing that injuries to the knee were serious matters, I became considerably alarmed, as the wound showed no signs of improvement. I had often heard ZamBuk’s healing properties praised, and I decided to apply this Balm. After the first application the agonising burning pain ceased and the wound was soothed. I continued the treatment, and after the sixth dressing with Zam-Buk all pain and soreness had disappeared. Since then I have had further opportunities of testing the unique virtues of this Balm in cases of Bums, Mosquito Bites, Cuts, and Sores, for both adult and infant, and ca,u safely say the effects were simply marvellous. No home should be without a supply of Zam-Buk handy.” Zam-Buk Ls a proved cure for Piles, Eczema-, Boils, Running Sores, Sore Legs, Barcoo, Rash, Ringworm, Rheumatism, Lumbago, Sciatica, etc. As an embrocation for strained muscles and tendons, Zam-Buk rubbed well into tho parts affected is unequalled. As a household Balm for Cute, Bruises, Burns, Pimples, Blackheads, Sore Throat, Sore Chest, and Sore Feet, Zam-Buk is invaluable.

A candidate, after addressing a meeting, announced his willingness to answer questions. One elector in, the audience said: “Sir, do you think Tam worth more than. 22? a week?” The candidate, taking a good look at him, replied: “ Well, I think, at any rate, you are. not getting too much.” “Well, then,” demanded the questioner, “do you think I am worth thirty bob a week?” “Yes',” responded the candidate; “I don’t think that at all . an unreasonable wage for you.?’ “Then,” shouted the elector, triumphantly, “I wash you would tell that to the blamed old scoundrel beside you in the chair, because be is my employer.” <
