Nmt having the use of his bauds, lie learned to write and do everything with his feet. As a child he develops! a love for nature, became an expert ganleirei - am) maintained an excellent flower and \egetahle gardon. lie uses a mason's trowel for digging, and lie can sow sc":I And plant out almost as well as a man that lias the use of his hands.

"1 will let you into a secret," said vbe Fremier at Grey town last Friiu\ nighl.. when referring to the jeci'sshy of opening up trade with •he East. "'There have," he declared, "been agents from Japan in this ;cuntry for months past, and thej have been buying heavily. but tlu produce purchased ,has been through Australia, and not direct *n,m New Zealand." A Sydney journal observes "It. is *. significant fact that while three States in which U-g'islat ion to compel the fruit pests in •n force have developed a profitable »xport t ra<le in apples with London. New Sout h Wales, which has no legislation. does not ship a solitary *wise of apples."A metluvd of measuring turbine power has been invented by Mr Johnson, of Messrs Denny and Hrothers, Ihi urbarton, builders of the bulk of the Fuion Company's fleet. All that can yet be done is to speciiy power equivalent to so much horse-pcwei as developed by reciprocating machinery. though horsi-power of the turbine is net capable of exact measurement in the same way. Ihe new instrument measures I>\ electri eal means the -torsion of the shaft river a certain length. The Admiralty has been r.-ceiitly trying the instrument on a turbine desi royer. and if the results promise well it may be tried on the A,meth\st. the turbine hir;i-cla w s cruiser.

Culture Society announced that tile 'third lecture V.ould not take place, as the ton'' of (he lirst two was not in sympathy with their aims. After the second ■ lecture Dr. Thacker was severely ■taken to task by the Lytlelton Times for the character of lis hvlure. On Friday night, in th.-cours" of a speech' at a physical culture ine -tinu. Dr. I'hacker made a violent attack on the Christehurch newspapers. which, he said, had not him fairly. Ih\ Thacker aiso'atlack-.-.I i.lic Wmivii's Institute, and for the same reason, namely- that it h:d passed a resolution condemning his public utterances before the Physical Culture Society. lie said that ihe Women's Institute consist, d lot of •"broody hens." They were persons who. like a broody hen. would sit til a China egg for weeks, and bring forth nothing, and would all the time prevent, respect abb' liens from getting to the nest. They y\vrc a '"thorn in the flesh" to all derent mothers and wives in the community. Most of the m. tubers of thi Women's Institute had never been young women, not true young women. Altogether the Women's Inslitute yvas a most unsafe guide fcr • It'- young women of the community and If warned all those present against being misled bv its teaching#.
