In our report of the Eltham and Mangatoki Bacon Co.'s meeting, which appeared yesterday, an error of one letter directly changed the meaning of a sentence. The paragraph in which the mistake occurred read as follows: —"Replying to Mr Ballantyne, the Chairman explained the difficulties the companies were working under at the present time. The two dairy companies were running the bacon business and still they worked separately in the finance. They had not got a good start and he thought the -time would come when a proposal might be considered to form one company for the "bacon business." What the Chairman said and our Eltham correspondent wrote was "They had now got a good start/ which, of course, is the direct opposite of what the sentence conveyed as previously published. UNTOLD AGONIES.—CAUSED BY KIDNEY TROUBLES. "TO TURN IN BED CAUSED INTENSE AGONY." "It was a year ago that I was first troubled with kidney disease and backache, and since then I have suffered untold agonies," writes Mrs Florence Newman, il Elger-street, Glebe, N.S.W. "The pain seemed to be right in the small of the back and across the kidneys, and when I was compelled to stoop it seemed almost impossible for me to rise again. When I went to bed at night I was quite miserable, and found it very difficult to obtain any sleep at j all, and to turn over in bed caused me i intense agony. "I heard of Dr. Shel-i don's Gin Pills, and decided at once to give them a trial. The result has been that all my pains have entirely left me, and. I have now no indication'of kidney disease in any way. I consider that I am perfectly cured." Dr Sheldon's Gin Pills are sold at Is 6d and 2s 6d. Obtainable at W. K. Wallace, chemist —A.dvt.
