SHOOTING.

The enthusiasts in shooting from the various volunteer corps found their way to Wanganui on Saturday afternoon to take part in the annual competition for the Battalion Shield. After an enjoyable time and some real good shooting, the Manchester Rifles, Feilding, carried off the much treasured trophy in triumph. Palmerston and Feilding teams returned home last evening. Appended are the scores: — MANCHESTER RIFLES.

ENGLAND v. GERMANY. It is the Piano that has made this generation the most musical that has over lived. Up to the present the German instrument has held sway but owing to the alteration in the tariff in the colony, you can now place in your home, a Sterling English Piano at a price that defies German competition. Some idea of the popularity of the English Piano may be gained from the fact that the Spencer Piano Co., one of the foremost English makers, have sold over three thousand of these instruments in New Zealand. The makers estimate that there are over fifty thou< sand of their instruments in use at the present time, of which fifty have been supplied to different shipa of his Majesty's Navy. The price of these instruments puts them within the reach of all, as they can be delivered free to your door from £42 10s, or 22s 6d a month. All the Pianos are iron frame, full tricord, and have a patent check action, and in their model class IB at £42 you have a fulness of tone that is not equalled by many of the so-called semi-Grands, costing £60 or £70. The London and Berlin Piano Company, who are New Zealand agents for these celebrated instruments, have made Mr William Carthew, Feilding, agent, and he has full power to grant liberal terms to 'purchasers. Mr Carthew has several Pianos in stock, and will be very pleased for anyone interested to call and inspect the English Spencer, and see what the celebrities in the musical world have to say about these world-renowned instrument-'. KEEP YOUR MOUTH CLOSED. Tlie peculiar arrangement of the narrowed and branched and delicate-ly-furnished nasal passages are specially suited to strain the air and to warm it before it enters the lungs. The foul air which one has to contend with in a day's travel through the crowded city is breathed with greater impunity through the nose than through the mouth. Raw air inhaled through^ the mouth induces hoarseness,^colds', etc. No one who has been snoring during the night feels properly refreshed in the morning. Keep the mouth closed when reading silently, when writing, when listening, when in pain, when angry, and when asleep. If you will follow these simple rules, and make Impey's May Apple your standard family medicine, you can go through life in tho enjoyment of perfect health. Impey's May Apple can be obtained at 2s Od per bottle at all chemists and stores, or post fro direct from Messrs Sharlaud and Co., Ltd., Wellington.
