BOWLING.

In the match on the local green between Manaia and Hawera, the former were leading by 11 points when we went to press.

A complimentary social to Mrs J. Tait is to be given by the Manaia Band on Wednesday evening.

The seaside excursion to New Plymouth on Thursday was a great success. About 1200 people were taken into the town.

Captain Major has been advised by Colonel Newall that the Hinemoa will reach New Plymouth on Saturday at midnight, and Hawera men mnst go on her to Onehunga.

Some practical joker started a report at New Plymouth that De Wet had been captured with 600 men, and naturally this news spread like wild-fire, with the result that we (the Herald) were inundated with excited enquiries on the subject, to which we could only reply that there was no troth in the rumour.

A Gißborne paper states that tho Wbakatane Heads last week was the scene of an accident of an uncommon and particularly sensational character. There was to have been a steamer excursion to Whale Island, bat owing to the heavy swell it was abandoned. A number of the intending excursionists then went down to the Heads to watch the breakers, and among those wHo went out on to the rocks was George M'Alister, an old resident. He ventured out further than the rest, and suddenly a larger wave than usual rolled in and swept him off his feet, and the horrified spectators never saw him again.

ALLAYS THE PAIN.

Charlotte A. Mackay, Queen otreet, Masterton, says : — " For wore than three years I had suffered Beverely from sharp pains in my arm, shoulder and spine, so that it was almost .impossible forme to obtain any Bleep. Seeing Chamberlain's Pain Balm advertised, I obtained a bottle at Mr Eaton's ohemist Ehop. By following the directions -I had the Pain Balm well rubbed on to the affected parts— and almost immediately I experienced relief. After several applications, the pain was so alo layed that I was able to obtain my regular Bleep and perform my household duties. I consider it a wonderful medoine, and think so much of it that I will never be without a bottle in my home." Chamberlain's Pain Balm is on sale at Hawera General Store, — Advt..

THINK IT OVER.

Is it not within your knowledge that a weakened run-down system is more readily open to the attacks of pneumonia, consumption, and even of paralysis? Does this not suggest the importance of maintaining bodUy vitality ? If you are suffering from nervous prostration, faint and dizzy spells, brain lag, and other troubles arising from a run-down system, take Wilton's Bovo-Ferrum. It builds up the system, putß new rioh blood into the arteries, reatorea the wasted nerve tissues, and »dds firm flesh and solid muscles to the body.

The Good Die Young. Unlike most popular sayings, this has very little truth in it. Experience every day proves that Borne at least of the good are spared to make the world brighter and better, and a more pleasant place to live. In fact, our experience i 8 that good people, and good things generally live the longsßt. For example, consider the thousands of artilces which have been widely advertised and are now forgotten. Why? Because they were bad. On the other hand, we have Holloway's Pills and Ointment, whioh have proved the faithful friend of poor humanity for fifty years and more. Why ? Because they are good. Of a truth, that whioh is good does not die, but lives for all time.— Advt. A gigantio sale of men's and boys' clothing now raging at the Economic.
