It will be seen from our advertising columns that the Presbyterian Ladies' Guild announce that their annual sale takes place on June 14th. The Land and Income-tax Depart •' ment give 3 notice that returns of income must be furnished not later than Ist June. Baby had a horrid pain, j Gbucked away bis dummy, Squirmed and screamed and squirmed again, Frightened his poor Mummy. Till at last she could endure Baby's cries and screams no more, j Gave him Wood's Great Peppermint Cure, ; Soothed his little tummy. j Mr R. Scott., M.P., intends to go to ! Duiieilin on Saturday, en route for j Lawrence, which place he will reach on Monday, to attend the Gabriel's Gully Jubilee celebrations. We hear that Mr R. R. Hore, Mr Tregonning, and Mr Fiynn will also to attend the celebrations, as they were mining there in the early days. Mr James Hore is leaving the district next week for Dunedin to settle down and enjoy a well earned: rest after his long years of work. He was on Hamiltons when it first broke out and has made his home in the district ever since. His son, Mr Frank Hore, will manage the farm. MrN.S. Reed, hon. sec. of (he Miners' Association, has a received a telegram from the Honl the Minister of Mines that he will take into his early consideration the application for the construction of a reservoir at the Idaburn.

Fr rheumatism, backache, faceache, earache, neuralgia, and other lar pains nothing can equal WITCHS' 03L (regis'.red). Owing to the difficulty of finding a successor the Rev. T. G. Burgess wilf not be able to leave the district as soon as he intended, and it will be a few weeks yet before he is able to take up his work in Canterbury. We have been requested to draw, attention through our columns to the want of another J.P or two in Naseby as people who require their ssrvices are often unable to find one just when they are wanted. In addition to His Worship the Mayor there are only three in the town—Messrs Inder, Mitchell and Forgie. The demands of their business. often take the two former way, while the latter's advancing years and the distance" of his residence from the town, prevents his services bf>ing always at the disposal of the public. We have a number of gentlemen in the place whose services would no doubt be willingly given were they appointed. :

1 Among the thoaa 'appointd'as Hon. Aides-da-camp t-j His Excellency the Governor is Lieut-col M " We have no doubt but 'lhlirM"r"p7 Kinney's appointment to the Land Board will give very 'general satisfaction to the residents of Central Otago. The Crown tenants have for years been trying to get a man from the inland districts to represent them,, as they feel that a man whose knowledge is confined to ths coastal and southern districts cannot be in touch or sympathy jwith their requirements in the way they would like, and after having failed to give effect to theirwishes through the medium of the bal-lot-box, they will the the more appreciate the gracious act of the Govern • ment in appointing a man who is one of themselves. Mr Kinney's many years of residence in Central Otago, his very intimate knowledge of farm- * ing and pastoral pursuits in thisjdis--trict which has ss> many peculiarities of its own, and his long connection with public life, all tend to make him a man well qualified to fill the position and represent the Crown tenants to their satisfaction. No doubt Mr Kinney's career as a member of the ; board will justify the wisdom of his appointment. On Wednesday, at the Presbyterian Church, Ranfurly, Miss Edith Weir and-Mr A Simpson were married by the Rev. E. Adams. W. F. George, of Naseby, died 011 Wednesday evening while being taken to the hospital. Deceased was in the hospital a few days ago, but left of his j own accord on Sunday morning. On I Wednesday evening some neighbours ; heard him groaning in his house, and j on going in found him very ill. As the ! doctor declines to give a certificate as to the cause of death an inquest will ■ be held to-day. Asthma is painful and exhausting, enervating, and distressing. Why suffer, when relief can be immediately obtained by the use of that truly wonderful remedy, MOUNTIN KING ASTHMA POWDER, which" gives prompt and'. r Use Mountain* King Powder; it never fails..
