The following experiments were lately made at the Gas Worte to determine the relative value of a now gas heater made by Fletcher, of Warrington, and which has been largely advertised in the journals. No. 1 experiment:— Fletcher's burner heated to boiling point 2 quarts of water in 23 minutes, and consumed 3J cubic feet of gas. No. 2 experiment: Fletcher's burner heated to boiling point 3 quarts of water in 11 minutes, and consumed 5 cubic feet of gas. No. 3 experiment : Walker's burner heated to boiling point 2 quarts of water in 12 minutes, and consumed 3J cubic feet of gas. Walker's stove, with two of those burners and a grill, is admirably adapted to suit the requirements of families, where economy is a matter «f consideration ; it forms a complete kitchen—roasting, baking, boiling, grilling, and making of toast can all be done in perfection, with only a small amount of labour and attention, and is capable of cooking a complete dinner for twenty persons. Is now in use in nearly 200 houses in Auckland. Price, only £4 ss. The curative properties of the Turldsh Bath are daily becoming better known, and rightly so, as the following testimonials show :—Mr. George DLane writes: M When X came to your baths 1 was labouring under one of the most severe colds I ever had, accompanied with pains in the head, chest, and back, and the loss. of my voice. Your oxygen bath with the wet sheet pack worked a miracle with me, and my voice was restored before I left your establishment. Next day I was completely well; and instead of weakening me, it gave strength and acted as a tonic to my system." Mr. J. B. Woolcock, Thames, also writes: "It gives mo great pleasure to hand you a testimonial, as I considered my case hopeless, more especially as every known remedy had been persevered i*. Thoroughly crippled for fifteen months with sciatica, I give yeu credit for making a thorough cure in your baths."—Sufferers from rheumatism, neural gia, &c., are strongly recommended to give the baths a fair trial. Baths open daily from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Office of the Auckland Turkish Baths Company Limited, 5, New Zealand Insurance Buildings Auckland.

Extract from letter of Private Ward, of the Mounted Police, Cape Colony:—"I should just like you to|see the real farm house Bread thati bake ! The oven is one dug in the ground, and is just large enough to hold our daily quantum of two loaves, we use flour, water, salt, and Borwick's Baking Powder. My bread often surprises me, it is so light, and white as snow. Some of our men will insist that I have been 'in the trade/ and nothing I can say will convince them to the contrary."
