Baldness remedied with Brice’s Special Strength Regenerator, 5/6, and Seboria Soap, 2s. — C. N. O’Loughlin, Hairdresser.* The occasion of Hector Gray’s hundredth win for the present season is pictorially recorded in the strikingly colourecT supplement given away with this week’s issue of the “New Zealand Sporting and Dramatic Review.” Interesting snapshots of the final preparations made by Professor Piccard for the sensational balloon ascent will hold the reader’s attention, and the overseas section contains a choice , variety of happenings abroad.

I am.” “Smoking is a pernicious habit,” remarked the Bench. “Shortens life. How old are you?” “Seventy-two,” said witness, “and been a smoker for fifty years.” (Loud laughter).

But the New Zealand toasted brands are perfectly harmless. Thanks to the toasting! The process also gives them their unique flavour and fragrance. There are only four toasted brands—Riverhead Gold, Cavendish, Navy Cut No. ■ 3 and Cut Plug No. 10. They are of . different strengths, but all remarkable . for their beautiful quality and exquisite purity.* Woods’ Great Peppermint Cure. For Children’s Hacking Cough. j
