TIME IS THE TEST.

THE TESTIMONY OF NELSON TEOPLE STANDS THE TEST Th e test of time is what .eiJs the tale. "A now broom sweeps clean," but will it i'wear well " ia what interests most, The public soon find out when misrepresentations are mad«, and merit alone will stand the test of timo,. . Nelson paople appreciate merit, and many months ago local citizens publicly endorsed Doan's Back, ache Kidney Pills, they do sq atiil Would a citizen make the statement which follows unless convinced thati the article was just as represented. A cure that lasts is the kind tbat every sufferer from kidney disorder ls looking for. Mi- J. Bartlett, gardener, Grovestreet, The W o od, this town, says : "More than two years ag'o I marie a. statement to the effect th&t Doan's Backache Kidney Pills had cured me of Kidney trouble. The statement has been published .roia cime to time in the Nelsoa papers, and is correct in every particular. Il} fa?t, the cure hay proved a permanent one. lam as well to-day as when I made the statement, and I have never used: the medicine sinee, unless a dose or two, not worth mentioning. They are gran4 pills, and I -liave urgod all who havg Riy advdcp to use tjj'em. I had beon afflicted with the kidneys more or less for several years. I blamed it to having to stand too much. Pain in tho back -was my worst symptom, and this waa vory bad at times. I obtained tho pills at Boon's Pharmacy. '<■ Mr Bartlett has ft lso swnething to say about Doan'a Ointment :— My little girl had Eczema very Dadlyi at the back of the ear for some considerable t.l[_ne. TWO years ago I got Doan's Ointment and used it with splendid success. In fact, the one pot cured it. 'No sign of the trouble appeared for six months, when the oW sore appear- | ed to be returning ;. however, we again used Doan's Ointment, and It cured her a second time, and this time permanently, for Bha has t>sen free of it ever slnoe, — a wer od of eightepn months. I think this Ointment is incomparable tot Skin diseases." Take no substitutes. Get' the genuine Doan's Backache Kidney Fills, and Doan's Ointment, tbe remedies which Mr Bartlett used with such great success. Doan'a Backache Kidney Pills and Doan's Ointment are sold by all ohemists and storekeepers at 3s per box (six boxes 16s 6d), or will be poste'd on receiptor price by Foa-ter-McClollan Co., 76, Pitt-street, Sydney,' N.S.W. ißemember the name— DOANS.

In the orchard of Mr John Kilbride, Bouthbridge, Is to be seen an apple tree which is bearing the second crop of fruit this season. The first crop waa picked about Christmas time. The tree is of the Irish peach variety, and tho frnit ia very healthy. During the past nine months the number of fire.l in Oamaru haa been greater than during the previous seven years. The population of Bombay Presidency has increased by no fower than 15,000,000 in the paßt 20 years. The public just learns (says a London paper) that it did not know where gels ti^d, bpt it geems that the ptpbleip has lo'nfj puzzled biologists. TJanish "marine investigators have now completed investigations proving that so far as the European population is concerned the preatfljrgß §pa^yp at a (Jeptfr pf 550 fathoms in' the Atlantic . Ocean contiguous to the British Isles and Southwest Europe. From innumerable eggs there appears tiny larvae called leptocephalia, which are transparent, jellylike, and flat, having something of the contour of a tailless herring. It is not known how long the eggs take to develop the leptocephali, but the latter occupy six months in transition to the fatnihar elvers, which are about two inches long. 'The elvers then migrate in countless swarms to the shores of Western Europe, travelling in columns sometimes several yards \vide a)ifl ipiies long. Nothing stops their progress. If they encounter a sliip they separate to the right and left and rejoin in the vessel's wake. They invade every river and waterway on the coasts, ascending steadily landward,. They even ascend small waterfalls, penetrate streams, and wriggle over swampy grounds into ponds and dltchea.
