Sharlantl's Magnesia is particularly soothing when tlie digestion is disturbed and there is a nasty taste m the mouth ; 1/3 per bottle everywhere.— s. Quito an unusual sight Avas witnessed m town recently m the shape of a.bullock team. As these slow-moving creatures slowly progressed up our main street, it ■was 'interesting to note the comparison between them and other modes of traction. Carriers' carts passed them although they iwere standing, but the difference was most marked when a heavilyladen motor lorry, drawing a. trailer, also filled with goods, rattled past the patient bullocks and soon left them far m the real. This was a striking example of the difference m modern methods and those of years ago. This difference is very pronounced m the shops m our main street. One window m particular stands out prominently. Crammed full of goods, all marked m plain figures, it is indeed an eye-opener. In spite of , the tremendous advance m the original cost of every line, the goods displayed by "The People's Emporium" are ettll fculd at bedrock prices, and this progressive firm thoroughly merits the liberal t support they receive.*
