There are- reiterations that grow timesome, no doubt, phrases that get on the public nerve,—“No party I” for example in the virtuous protestations of both political parties just now, though each of them (says ‘‘Civis’ ’in the ‘‘Otago Daily Times”) is as keen to cut the other’s throat as ever it was. The phrase. “No party!” with which hon. members exhort, rebuke, or accuse each other recurs in Hansard till it nauseates. But the troubles of the time are not phraseological. And in no newspaper have I come across a war critic that I couldn't read with interest, and with advantage to boot spite of his phrases. Not that there is anything that- satisfies in expoundings and explainings. the guesses and inferences of amateur strategy. For solid comfort I fall back on the perfectly obvious. It is perfect li obvious that Germany, with one ally, has hah a dozen enemies—Britain, France. Belegium. Russia, Servia. Japan ; and that- her one ally is a broken reed. It is perfectly obvious that the prospecth e Emperor of Europe, with hig luggage labels addressed to Paris is now hovering in the rear of German armies that are not even sure of getting back to Berlin. The ' investment of Paris ' time tabled for early September, looks as though postponed sine die. while in the reality of things it is (Icrmany that is invested—closed in boxed up. ring-fenced stewing in her own juice, as Bismarck said of Paris forty lour years ago. Other good things beside, there are. that are perfectly obvious, but these .ire enough to go on with.

THE 3211. p. FOUR-SEATER HUPMOBILE IS THE CAR FOR ALL CONDITIONS. It is th<> all-round oar —right for cross-country runs, right for the city streets. right for the ‘speed merchants,’ right for the family trip. It’s the lightest, brightest, speediest, smoothest, handsomest, strongest, BEST car hi its class in the wide world! And it costs but £330, or with electric starter and lighting ,£3SO. Its long .stroke motor gives ample reserve power ; the frame is built of special pressed steel and tested for the greatest strains ; the finish and upholstery are all that the luxurious motorist can wish, and the fittings complete in convenience and efficiency. The Hupmobile should he your car, whether lor rough work or smooth. It will cost you less in upkeep and give you more in satisfaction than any other ear. Write for cata-i legue or call for demonstration. Agents, I DAVIS & BOYD, Hastings; C. L. NEILSON A CO., Danuevirke; A. HATRICK A CO., LTD., Wanganui* “ORANGE LILY” has saved many operations.
