Our advertising columns contain par-" ticulars of a number of alterations to be. effected in-the railway service on and after 'November-Ist. these' is the omission of- Shag Point in the list of stopping places for the first express from Dunedin and the second express from Christchurch. The second express from the South, however, will stop at Orari to allow passengers from south of Timaru to alight. The service on the Vaihemo branch has been altered, so as to allow the train usually departing for Dunbapk from Palmerston at 8.15 a.m. on Tuesdays to get away at 5.25 a.m. The return journey will be made from Dunback at 6.15 a.m., arriving Palmerston at 6.50 a.m., thereby enabling passengers to connect with the train leaving Palmerston at 7 a.m. for Dunedin. Those interested! in the work of the St. John Ambulance Ambulance Division are reminded that the annual meeting will be. held in the Tees' streetHall this evening, at 8 o'clock. The election, of officers for the year will be held. The public are invited to be present. To-morrow evening, in the Kakarini Hall, the members of the Wesley Clioir will render a first-class programme of vocal and other items. A choice selection of items lias been gjot together, and those who attend will have the pleasure of hearing a good all-round programme. Hitherto the visits of the Choir to Kakanui. have been well received, and to-morrow the attendance should prove the largest on .record, owing to the fact that the efforts made are for the renovation of the local building. - At the present time Sherwin Bros, claim that their atock of rings surpasses that, of 'any other-dealer. 440 For a First-class Haircut and Shave go to Dan Costelloe's Saloon, Thames street. „

The fact that that most necessary apparatus—the sterilising plant—lias been installed, Basil Emslie's Saloon might reasonably be described as in advance of the times—that 'is, if the aver : age saloons are examples of up-t6-date-ness.
