FACTS FROM A FIRESIDE STUDY. Have you ever sat down to watch a fire burning— thought about it — realised how it burns- ■'■■■ : Perhaps you will then notice that, up to a certain point, the more coai: you put on . the fire the finer the blaze you will get. v But only up to a pertain point. The residue of the coal, the ashes, must be taken out from underneath tHe coal. ..■ If they are allowed to .remain, you can feed the fire from the top, but it will not burn— it "will: literally choke itself out. .. ■" Now, 1 imagine your life as a fire, with your body as a grate. Normally, food is your fuel. But the body - must . consume it, and for this you depend on the stomach. If the stomach is not digesting the food, you 'can'gobri feeding for ever- — -if that were humanly possible— ' but you will not gain strength. ; .The man who eats two ounces of' beef and' digests.it .all is better Off than, the man who .eats half a pound -, and digests none of it. \; "'.:-.-' . ■ Not how much, you eat, but how] much youV digest, "matterss:: > Nearly all our minor ailments, and^ very many of our more_ serious "disorders, .are .due V-to Indigestion. . A man'; who eats well -• aiid , digests well is, well. So] is a woman under~ : the same conditiQns. A man; who I 'does • not digest what he eats is '-ill. He is very ill.- So is a woman under the : same conditions. • ' ;•■ . ; . It. is impossible to be .well with 1 indigestion. It; is • possible to become ill tb the point . of -death if. Indigestion" is not remedied; Perhaps you have ho appetitie, or . a feeble one: Perhaps you "are afraid to eat because it hurts you after, or makes you sick and bilious. That is indigestion. ... .PerKaps.yoti have acidity,; or heartburn,- headache or flatulence.-: Perhaps your- system does riot act.regUr larly. Again — your trouble is Indigestion. .- ' • ■ _ ••'■".■,-'■ . So is Palpitation and. Shortness of Breath'; so is. dizzin,ess or fear of: yfalling ; so is Neuralgia or Nervous.' ■Breakdown; so is loss of Sleep or Insomnia. •■ The cause is Indigestion. Do not'lea've. the stomach to right itself.' Sometimes it does— mostly it does not— and you suffer all the time. But you will bo certain of a good resulir— a swift cure of indicestion— by taking Mother Seigel'p Syrup/r a. digestive tonic compounded from roots and herbs. Read this ■ testimony from Mr T. .R. Johnson, of the Carron Hotel. Spencer Street, Wost Melbourne, dated July 27th, 1908:— ■ . ...■ .' , ■ "For years I suffered^severely.from chronic indigestion. Having, fully studied medical .herbs, I compouuded some medicine for rijyself : but they aH failed to afford me. relief , and at last I was induced to ob- ■ tain a bottle of Mother's Seigel's Syrup. Though very sceptical at first, a short trial sufficed to prove that the Syrup is a true 'remedy, for my thorough cure soon followed."

Writing in the "Dominion" in regard to the huia bird, Mr W. W. ; Smith, of New Plymouth, says :— "As there are many mercenary collectors travelling about- the Dominion, in search of the last living specimens procurable of the , huia :ana other rare species' of native birds it . is of theiitmost importance for those who know to preserve . silence as to their present habitats until a suflScient number have, been captured nnd securely placed on the insular -. bird . sanctuaries. . Impatience for $c honour attached to such, very, important work should be rigidly- 1 suppressed until it is successfully ' accomplished. . ' The increasing great . demand for. liuia feathers has been,-: and js, the chief cause of the rapid disappearance of this unique and beautiful -bird. I have, previous■lv suggested, -and again, do so... , that ■'..'.■ the Government should rigidly -sup- ■>,. press the sale of huia • : feathers , in order to. prevent such nefarious traffic. _„-_• ' . ■ . »
