Many hundreds of dead sea birds, principally guillemots and puffins, were recently washed up on the shores of the mainland of Argyll, having been killed, it is understood, by the concussion of the firing of the big guns of the warships engaged in practice in the neighbourhood of the Island of Colonsay. Every day in our streets it is quite a common sight to see numbers of people who, on the face of it, suffer severely from Indigestion. They are pale and thin, have dull eyes and sallow skin. If they knew the goodness of Baxter's Silver Coated Pills — Compound-Quinine —they would not hesitate to buy a box there and then. Right from the start they will feel the benefit, and a 1/6 box will permanently cure them. It is not often tnat jokes from Punch are quoted from the judicial bench, but such an instance happened the other day at the Supreme Court, Wellington. While the shortcomings of trustees were incidentally being discussed Mr T. F. Martin cited the opinion of a well-known learned English judge who had stated that "a man wasn't fit to be a trustee unless he was capable of committing a breach of trust." Hia Honour Mr Justice Cooper, who was on the bench, remarked that the learned judge's saying was hardly more famous than a well-known joke that appeared in Punch. "Two little girls," said his Honour, recounting the witticism, "were discussing their fathers' incomes. One of them said that her father didn't earn much money and they didn't have a very good time. 'Oh,' retorted the other, 'my father is a trustee, and we live in a lovely house.'" (Laughter.) There's a power of consolation in a pipe of fragrant MILD DERBY PLUG or CUT.

ECZEMA IN ITS WORST FORM CURED BY REXONA AT CHRIST. CHURCH. "My hair was acknowledged among my acquaintances to be perfect, till I by some means, became afflicted with that most painful disease Eczema," writes Mrs M. Carrell, 64 Carlyle Street, Sydenham, Christchurch (N.Z.). nits painful irritations caused me to scratch and tear at my scalp as if I was demented. Words cannot describe my mental and physical pain therefrom. I received attention from several specialists on Eczema with the usual results. It got worse, so I gave myself up as incurable, and being a young woman you can imagine my anxiety. At last I was persuaded to try Rexona Ointment, and I have it alone to thank for my complete and thorough cure from the above most painful disease. My head is now quite free from all traces of the malady, and my hair, by the regular use of Rexona I Ointment is longer, finer, and ray friends say more beautiful than ever. I cannot find words good enough to express my thanks for the benefits received through using Rexona, and sincerely hope all fellow-sufferers who read this will derive the same benefits as I conscientiously think they will if they give it a trial."
