RHEUMATISM FOR 20 YEARS.

After suffering from rheumatism for nearly 20 years Mr W. J. Hood, Alford Forest, tried R-U-R. “No one knows the relief I have received,” he says. “I have not been able to do any heavy work for years, but this last week I have been shovelling shingle in a gravel pit with no ill effects.” R-U-R is sold with money-back guarantee. Ask for free booklet from any of the following chemists: E. J. Thompson, Timaru; A. N. Hancock, Temuka; B. A. Bryan, Waimate;; Morris Williams, Geraldine

The Paper Madman. Croydon is intrigued over a “mystery man” whose whim is to dress entirely in paper. Newspapers are wrapped round his body and tied with string; his “stockings” are rolls of brown paper; and greas-proof paper covers his feet. The madman appears quite harmless. He spends his time wandering in the neighbour of the aerodrome, his long hair blowing in the breeze. Raisins and bread are his food, and he- seems to have found enough kind-hearted people in Croydon to keep him alive on this diet. He never begs and is offended when anyone offers him money.
