The statue has now arrived in Napier, and tlie Maoris have already collected about £IOOO towards its cost, and propose to run a series of socials during the winter months in aid of tlio big unveiling ceremony which is expected to be attended by leading natives from all parts of New Zealand. No dread of icy sheets with a -'UNIQUE” Hot Water Bottle. British made. Look for name “Unique" on the stopper. Cold days ahead. All chemists and dealers.
