TO BE DEPENDED ON. BECAUSE- IT IS THE EXPERIENCE QY A TIMARU CITIZEN AND CAN READILY BE INVESTIGATED. A stranger lost in a large city would place far more dependence on. the directions given him by a local resident than on the guidance of another stranger like himself. This is a natural consequence of experience. It's like a ship in a strange port—a trusty pilot familiar with the harbour is always called upon to Dring her safely to her moorings. So ifc is >vith endorsement; we but. public expression i>i local citizens can be depended for 'tis an easy matter to prove it. Mrs Yeatman.' Yoik street, this town, says:—" Both my husband and I have with pains in the" small of my back. They were of an aching nature, and came against me most when I stooped or moved about much. These pains never left me until I used Doan's Backache Kidney Pills. This remedy cured me. My husband hnd painssimilar to mine, and the pills also gave him as much benefit. I got the remedy at Oddie's Pharmacy." See that the word " backache " is in the name. You want the remedy which. Mrs Yeatman recommends. Doan's Backache Kidney Pills are sold by all chemists and storekeepers at 3s per box (six boxes 16s 6d) or will be posted in receipt of price by Foster-McClellan Co., 76 Pitt St., Sydney, N.S.W. But be sure'they are DOAN'S.

HOW TO INVENT. (By Thomas A. Edison.) Mr Edison writes as /follows :—'-How do I go about inventing a contrivance? Well, everything requires' different treat - nient. I go at it in every way that. I can think'out. .This-multiplied attack soon simmers down-until I get'a composite idea, something which is a combination of i nil that I'have-thought of, or else the one feasible idea which seems to discount all the rest. Having once got started on %-hat I think is the right track I keep up the pace until the goal is reached. The onlv thing therefore I can say to the yoivhg inventor is to go and do likewise. There is only one piece of advice I can give however .when a V>an starts to invent, let him do' so with his mind free from all knowledge of what, has-been done already in the part'ieul.iV field he is investigatinj For instance, if I am about to work 0:01 something. I never read up on it nor do I inouire what ha* been done on it by other inventors. .Knowledge of this kind is almost certain to prove a snag in Ihe path of the inventor. He gets into the cut made by his predecessors, and stops where they are stopped." The above remarks from. Mr Edison are suppWl us by Henry Hughes, pitent agent, Chris-tehurch., the oldest stablish-Hl firm of patent in the colony. Mr J. E . S. Jackson, Stafford street, is the Timaru representative for Mr Hughes, from whom all information relating- to patents and trademarks may be obtained on application free of cost....
