TOWN & COUNTRY

A social in connection with ChalmerS Church will be held in tht hall on Thursday next at 8 o'clock.. Mr A. Hill, of the Ocean Accident Insurance. Company, has arrived in Timaru to take charge of the Company's business in his district. Mr. W. Whyte, local manager for Messrs Booth Mac Donald and Co., has teeeived notice of his transfer to Auckland. Service, in Wesley Church on Sunday will be conducted at 11 by Rev. C. H. Olds, and in the evening at 6.30 by Mr Howard. Mr Workman will preach at Waiinataitni at 11, and Mr Howe ab 6.30. Thero were two entries for the best fancy drees representation of the autumn season at the* flower show on Thursday night. Miss Boys, representing " Harvest" was placed first, and Mice Rennie Burns second. The takings at the door at the flower show on Thursday amounted to £33 ss, which is about. £8 ahead of last year, and constitutes the best result achieved 'for many years. The prize money totalled) aimc\;t*£9o. . " Mr McHutcheson is to be succeeded aa chief postmaster at Timaru by Mr Capper, at present in charge at Invercargill. The. latter office has been raised. • by the Department to tlije, same statins as Dunedin and Christchurch, and Mr McHuteheson, being senior I<> Mr Capper, is being transferred to the more, important office. The Hon. Wm. Hall-Jones, says the "New Zealand Times," must share Mark Twain's feelings when the celebrated humourist complained that the report of his death was "slightly exaggerated." What Mark Twain did to provoke the report—possibly it was a bad. joke he perpetrated —is not recorded, but as the Minister put in a heavy day's work on. Monday last- and decided to rest in tihe evening, this wise precaution against breakdown was interpreted by his anxious friends as a sign of relapse. Ho is anxious to dispel this impression. " Here I am at my office as usual, up to my eyes in work," he remarked on Wednesday to a "Times" man. "I'm not ill—do I look like it?" He explained that last Friday was a big day for him among his Timaru friends, and on Monday he had a very busy time with deputations. He started by the afternoon express for Christchurch,'and when he got there felt too fatigued for his public engagement. He had been carefully following the rule he had laid down since his return, this being to work as quietly as possible, and he felt that the precaution he took on Monday evening was wise. There was no ground for anxiety on account of his ! health. \ NOT-VBLE ORDER FOR SHEEP DIP. " Ribv drove," Lincolnshire, England, "May 27, 190?. ••' Messrs Q.nibell Bros. (Ltd j, Newark. '•'Dear Sire,—l shall be much obliged if you will send me the same quantity of your Powder Dip as you sent last year. "" (Signed for Henry Dudding), "T. B. Torry." Note. —Three timtes within th last decade has Mr Dudding sold rams for 1000 guineas and over. Last year his Royal Champion two-tooth, which had been dipped in Quibell's Dip, realised the handsome sum of 1450 guineas—the highest price ever paid for a. Longwooled Sheep. The fact that Quibell's Dips have been ■used on the Riby Grove flock more or less extensively for the past quarter of a century is conclusive evidence of the superior "qualities of these famous preparations. PATENTS IN AUSTRALIA. In order to secure an Australian cover, six applications were necessary before, the Australian Federal Act came into operation. Now onlj- one is required. The cost is about, one third of what it used to be. Full infonnation may be obtained from Henry Hughes' Office, where. Mr P. R. Cliniie, who has had long experience of Patent Law, and is fully posted in the latest developments there, may be consulted at the 'Christchurch office. The Act provides for the extension of States patents to the Commonwealth. Thus, say you hold a. Victorian patent, you can apply to extend that patent to cover Australia at a comparatively trifling cost. For all particulars apply Henry Hughes, 183 Hereford Street, Christchurch. It should bo noted that this patent office is equipped to complete inventor's instructions at first hand. Henry Hughes' pamphlet. "Advice to Inventors" may be had on application at the firm's office, and. contains much interesting information and a lmig list of inventions that are needed at the present, time. J. .1-.'. S.

Cooper reported that a number of members from Timaru were living in Wa.im.ate and they were trying to open a branch of the order there. The receipts for tha evening amounted to £7 and accounts amounting to £l6 were passed for payment. An assault which will probably b? considered in all its bearings in the Magistraitete Court this morning .occurred at the Strathallan street railway crossing last, evenimr. A young man nnder the influence" of drink wandered within the fenced off portion of the station yards to the north of tha crossing and on the keener ordering him out on to the roadway, the man. it. is alleged, struck the keeper in the face and inflicted some injury. Constable Wotton arrested the assailant and took him to the Police Station, though not without some difficulty, for the prisoner attempted to escape from custody while passing the C.F.C.A. stores.

Macfarlane, of Culverden, wires from Nelson:—" Both my Talbot cars made non-stop runs." The 12-16 h-p. 4-cylinder Talbot (now over a. year old'; was driven by Mr A Macfarlane, and a 10-12 Talbot by one of his station hand?, and used as a luggage car. The distance from Christchurch to Nelson, via Blenheim, is 307 miles. Mr J. E. Green, compiler of the New Zealand Boad Book, supplies us with the following information in reference to the difficulties of the trip -.—" Motorists' troubles commence with the River Mason, where the track t'you cannot call it a road', runs up the middle of the river bed for a distance of 4or 5 miles. The whole of the surface is composed of rough boulders, soft 6and spits and loose shingle, while the stream is crossed and recrossed as manv as twenty times. Further north the Conway river is even worse than the Mason as regards surface, and although shorter, there is alwavs a greater volume of water in the river. Nearing Kekeranga, the road, or rather bullock track, skirts the beach for a couple of miles, and is nothing but dry, loose sand, in which you sink almost to yo-ur boottops." The above motor cars were supplied by Adams, Ltd.. Stafford street, Titnant. sole agents in New Zealand for Talbot cars. We can give immediate delivery of Talbot cars from stock. -Inspection invited. ... CURE TOUR RHEUMATICS—WHY SUFFER?

In moving the adoption of the annual report- at the meeting of the Christchurch Meat Company, this week, the Chairman tMr F. de Malet) said:—"ln spite of the somewhat extraordinary nature of the season which the South Island experienced last. year, record slaughterings were established, and never since the inception of the company has such a- volumo of business passed "through the works. Whilst on this matter it may naturally be asked, can such a volume of business be expected under ordinary conditions, and how are the exports of the present year likely to l>n affected by the abnormally dry season and continued excessive heat which we are experiencing? Up to the present the result has .undoubtedly been a serious shrinkage in the trade so" far as the South Island is concerned, and Canterbury in particular is suffering from the nature of the season through which we are now passing. Up to this time last year all the Canterbury works were exceedingly busy, whilst, so far, during the present "season the quantity of stock which lias been available is probably not much more than one half. Opinions differ as to what tlie fntre may have in store for us. but without venturing upon any forecast on a subject wliieh is in no small degree governed by the conditions of the weather. I think I am reasonably safe in stating that we can hardly expect to deal with, during ihe present season, such a number as is shown in the report now before you." We have decided to give up stocking

"Walk Over" boots-. The new finty is very heavy on Walk Overs. Since American boots" first came into the New Zealand market the <lnty has been increased considerablv. On Walk Over hoots costing 15s in America, the duty now is 6* per pair. Sonter's Shoe Store are therefore clearing out the balance of th-ir stock of men'* walk over boots at 210 llcl per pair. low than what they can be landed for to-day. Gentlemen would do well to secure a pair at our sale. The usual price is 27s 6d. Every line of boots and fihoes are reduced to cost price, and in seme cases to less than cost. Souter's Boot Hal* is now in full swing, hargairs in boots for everybody. Stock of £2SCO vain;' to choose from. ...

The Dresden intimate that they have cleared all tbeir stock of second-hand pianos; some very fine British 1908 new models are now to hand at 45 guineas, a moderate price for an excellent article, and as February is annual sale month, long terms and extra inducements are offered.
