JUST WHAT IS WANTED .

Whenever any article has stood the crucial test of public use and opinion for any lengthened period of time, and the public demand for such is continuously sustained, you may be sure that it fills a public need—that it is just what is wanted. When, in the case of that article being a proprietary medicine, the demand is not only steadily sustained, hut continually increasing, you may be absolutely certain that there is some extraordinary merit in it, and in the case of Sb Jacobs oil this is borne out by the testimony of the Press and of thousands of reputable citizens in all parts of the civilised world. Apropos, Messrs Francis Newbery and Sons, London, one of the oldest drug houses in Great Britain (established nearly a century and a half) write:—"We have sold St Jacobs oil for years; demand continually, increasing on its extraordinary merits,” Sold by chemists and dealers throughout the Colony.

A LESSON IN ASTRONOMY.

How would you like to see the earth turning round ? If such a thing were possible you you might see the New York hoy eating his breakfast, the English boy getting his dinner, and the New Zealand boy fast asleep in his bed, all at the same time. That is because while one part of the earth directly faces the sun (and it is noon in that place), another part only partially faces it (it is either morning or afternoon there), and another part not at all (there it is night). But though the actual time differs, morning, noon, and night come alike to each place as regularly as the hands of a Waterbary watch move around its face. If you were ns regular it would be of great advantage to you. A Waterbury will help you, and can be bought from auy respectable dealer throughout the Colonies.
