Political. —Wc call attention to the notice in another column from Mr C. H. Mills, M.H.R., giving the dates and places when he will address his constituents in the Nelson portion of the electorate. The meetings at this end will shortly be announced. Now that the ladies have votes they should not forget that a grave' responsibility is attached to the privilege and make arrangements to attend the meetings.

Fire Prevention. —We understand a movement is at last likely to be made towards procuring some means of extinguishing fires, and thus preventing such wholesale destruction as has been witnessed here lately. Quotations as to the price of a manual pumping-engine have been asked for from Nelson and Blenheim, and directly these are received a meeting is to be held.

W. 11. Nelson, who is in the drug business at Kingville, Mo., has so much confidence in Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Kemedy that he warrants every bottle, and offers to refund the money to any customer who is not satisfied after using it. Mr Nelson takes no risk in doing litis, because the remedy is a certain cure lor the disease for which it is intended, and he knows it. It is for sale by W. Price.

Prospecting—Owing to the very meagre attendance at the meeting called for Friday evening last, for the purpose of forming a Prospecting Association in this district, it was decided to adjourn the meeting till Friday evening next, at the same time and place. S.M. Court.—The monthly sitting of this Court takes place at Cullensville to-day, and at Havelock to-morrow.

Dentistry.—We would again remind intending patients of Messrs Powell and Son's visit to this district to-day and to-morrow. Obituary—We very much regret to hear of the sudden death of Mr W. Mowatt (chief Inspector of Machinery) which occurred at Wellington on Saturday_ morning. Deceased was well-known in this district, where he had made numerous friends during his visits. He leaves a wife and family, for whom the deepest sympathy will be felt.

Pelorus Road Board.—The ordinary monthly meeting of this Board takes place to-morrow.

Industrial Board. The Returning Officer gives notice of date of election of members of the Industrial Conciliation and Arbitration Board for the Industrial district of Nelson.

Chamberlain's is the best of all. Vincent J. Barkl, of Danbury, lowa, has used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy whenever in need of a medicine for coughs and colds, for the past five years, and says:—"lt always helps me out. If anyone asks me what kind of cough medicine I use, I reply ' Chamberlain's ; that is the best of all.'" A horse kicked H. S. Shafer, of the Freemyer House, Middleburg, N.Y., on the knee, which laid him up in bed and caused the knee joint to become stiff, A friend recommended him to use Chamberlain's Pain Balm, which he did, and in two days he was able to be around. Mr Shafer has recommended it to many others, and r.ays it is excellent for any kind ot bruise or sprain. This same remedy is also famous for its cures for rheumatism. For sale by W Price.

Heads of families, storekeepers settlers careful house-wives (young and old), rich and poor alike, will.save heaps of money by reserving their purchases for the " Great Partnership Sale," which is now on at Te Aro House, Wellington.

Last June Dick Crawford brought his twelve-months-old child, suffering from infantile diarrhoea, to me. It had been weaned at four months old and had always been sickly. I gave it the usual treatment in such cases, but without benefit. The child kept growing thinner until it weighed but little more than when born, or perhaps ten pounds. I then started the father to giving Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. Before one bottle had been used a marked improvement was seen, and its continued use cured the child. Its weakness and puny constitution disappeared and its father and myself believe the child-s life was saved by this remedy—J. T. Maijlow, M.D., Tamaroa, 111. For sale by W. Price. The announcement made in another part of this issue, that a sale of greater magnitude than ever attempted by Te Aro House is now being held should arrest the attention of everyone in this part of the Colony.

Te Aro House has long held the premier position as the leading " Family Drapery Warehouse" in the city, and further developments are now taking place to inaugurate the New Year, 1895. Early in the year Mr Smith admits to a partnership in his business a commercial gentleman who has long been associated with the London ouyiug for Te Aro House
