RHEUMATISM. ITS CAUSE AND CURE. Rheumatism is a most painful disease. Mauy are bent and physically disabled by the torture it inflicts. The disease may settle in the large muscles of the back, neck or thigh; or in the joints of the arms or legs. ' The pains may dart from one muscle to another, ind may be constant or occasional, but aII are produced by the same cause, excess uric acid in the blood. RHJ3UMU is the best, the only sure remedy. It neutralises and drives out the poisonous acid, relieves the pain, removes the swelling, and effects a speedy and permanent cure. From all chemists and •tores, at 2s 6d and 4s 6d a bottle. Do you realise what an extraordinary thiny a. perlcot Corset is? It must bo pliable to all natural motion, and rigid against all distortion. It must maintain health by improving nature. It must admit of modification in fitting; and yet, if it is a sixteenth of an inch false in cut, it is useless. Can you wonder that there is only one perfect Corset—the 1 J A D. ? .Business men find Zy mole Trokeys a great) convenience.

THINGS MEN SHOULD KNOW. INSIDE FACTS ABOUT THE MAKING OF SUITS TO MEASUKE. HOW TO SAVE MONEY, JBUT AVOID DECEPTION. SECUKE THE BEST GARMENTS MADE. EVERY MAN who formerly had to pay 4, 5 or 6 guineas to have a. satisfactory suit made to his measure, and who lias since taken advantage of the modern methods adopted by a now well-known firm of suit specialists, knows -that there is no longer any need to-'pay the above exorbitant prices to secure complete satisfaction in every respect. The wonderful success and the rapid growth of the business conducted by Mr George Davies in this and also at every other principal centre throughout New Zealand, i.> sufficient proof that men were tired of paying the oldstyle credit tailors to. cover their bad debts, and the costly antiquated methods they adopt in manufacture. Just as is the case, however, where a»y great success is achieved as the result of an honest, intelligent effort to servo the public well, a host of would-be imitators have put in an apjx'arancc attempting to deceive the public, and it is agaiust these imitators we would specially warn our readers. You will find this kind of thing mostly among drapers a n'd clothiers, who handle ready-made clothing, mercerv, and sometimes almost every'conceivable article worn by men, women and children. These "firms advertise suits as low in price as those produced- .by George Davies, in some cases lower, and when they have taken your measurements they send your suit out to some factory, where ready-made slop suits aer made, and all sorts of garments of a cheaper kind. . The result is that you would certainly have a suit made to yonr measure by these various iirins, but what sort of a suit is it p •It is necessarily similar to the readvmade slop suits which are made every day in these factories for customers who cannot afford to pay even moderate prices for their suits. How different when you place your order with George Davies. Your suit is cut by an expert cutter of the highest skill, made in -Mr Davies' own workroom under careful supervision, the highest quality Italian cloth and haircloth is •used in the makinjr of garments, and every little point in the making rceejves special care in your' interests. Yet although the suits' made by Mr Davies are the equal of any suits made in New Zealand, at any price, no matter how high, they cost you a trifle more than a suit which, you can have slop-made to your measure at almost any drapery, mercery, or ready-made clothing establishments in the r town. Some superb materials just landed direct from the world's best manufacturers, as well as from the colonial mills, are now shown for the winter season. Tour inspection is cordially invited.
