At the Tnvercargill Police Court, in opening the prosecution of James Bridge, hotel keeper, for permitting prostitutes to lemain too long about his premises, Sergeant Mac Donnell informed the court that he had had occasion to visit the hotel iu connection with the case to ascertain the position of the room to be referred to. The defendant had been offensive to him, and said that he (Bridge) aud friends had beon instrumental in doing him an injury before (probably referring to Sergeant MacDounell's removal to Queenstown some years ago), and would do so again. The sergeaut asked the court to bear this threat iu mind. Mr Poynton, S.M., said that if he had been interfered with in the prosocution of his duty, he should lay an information. The case was not concluded, and the magistrate said he would inspect the house himself.

" Perhaps you would not think so, but a very large proportion of diseases in New York comes from carelessness about catching' cold," says Dr. Syrus JEdson. "It is such a simple thing- and so common that very few people, unless it is a case of pneumonia, pay any attentiou to a cold. New York is one of the healthiest places on the Atlantic Coast, and yet there are a great many cases of catarrh and consumption which have their origin in this neglect of the simplest precaution of every, day life. The most sensible advice is, when you have one yet rid of it as soon as possible. By all means do not neglect it." Dr. Edson does not tell you how to cure a cold, but we will. Take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. It will relieve the lungs aid expectoration, open the secretions and soon effect a permanent cure.— For sale by J. C. Oddie, Temuka, and Morrison Bros., Geraldine.
