It's a fact, said a well-known Christchurch divine the other day to a friend, that Cough Mixture called Wood's Great Peppermint Cure, ia the very best thiDg for throat Irritation and Cough I have over taken ; 1 notice all the Grocers and Chemists keep it —a never failing remedy.

Henry Wilsoh, the postmaster at Welshton, Florida, says he cured a case of diarrhoea of long standing in six hours, with one small bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera ami Diarrhoea Remedy. What a pleasant surprise that roust have been to the sufferer. Such cures are not unusual with this remedy. In many instances only one or two doses are required to give permanent relief, It can always be depended upon. When reduced with water it is pleasant to take.—For Bale by J. C. Oddie, Temuka, and Morrison Bros., Geraldine. The Bruce Herald states that last week a little child named Ryan had a miraculou escape from death on the Lawrence line near Waitahuna. It appears that the engine driver, noticing the child on the line, whistled to get her off, but the child being too young apparently to understand, took no notice, and before the train could be stopped the cowcatcher caught the child up and throw her off the line. The train was stopped, and the guard and driver went back and picked the child up. To their joy and astonishment thev found the girl w»b not harmed in any way, oxcept that her nose was bleading slightly, and next day, on inquiry, they found that she was running about none the worse for her accident.

W. A. McGuire, a well known citizen of McKay, Ohio, is of the opinion that there is nothing as good for children troubled with colds or croup as Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. He has used it in his family for several years with the best results and always keeps a bottle of it in the house. After having la grippe he was himself troubled with a severe cough. He used other remedies without benefit and then concluded to try the children's medicine, and to his delight it soon effected a permanent cure.—For sale by J. C. Oddie, Temuka, and Morrison Bros..

An appeal is made through the Melbourne Argus by tho wife of a Church of Euglaud clergyman on behalf of tho poorly paid clergy in tho back country. Incidentally she mentions that herhusbaud, whose salary is supposed to be £7O a year, has only received £4O in 18 months, on which he is expected to support himself, wifo, and seven children. She pathetically concludes : —" My chilhreu and their future is my great anxiety. To see them now barefoot, my husband despondent, a long vista of darkness and debt beforo our eyes, is enough to make me think sometimes that it might bo a good thing to close tho doors and windows tightly, set a charcoal fire to burn, and so sloep for ever." And this is a land of plenty, too ! Surely thero must be au awakening soon!
