THE PRINCE'S TEMPER.

Our readers will remember that, some time ago,, Prince George of Servia gained world-wide notoriety by throwing his man-servant downstairs. Whether the servant was .killed or not we do not know. It ia «*id that this amiable Prince ia soon to enter the French army and that a special attendant has been engaged to guard thei Royal soldier's temper! There are ays when most of us feel irritable andi cross, but we don't usually throw people downstairs, or excurse bur folly on account of or .noble blood) If we sensible, we admit.we are out of sorts and put down the j cause to some stomach or liret: disorder. When that is the real cause we can quickly remedy it by taking a few doses of the standard stomach and liver tonic, Mother Seigel's Syrup. And when you !come to think how many ailments are entirely due to a disordered state of the stomach and liver, you cannot fail to appreciate the value of such a heribal remedy as Mother 1 Seigel's Syrup. •By toning and strengthening the stomach, and gently, stimulating the action of the liver and bowels, the Syrup aids digestion, maikes food nourish you, and clears out of the system the poisonous products i of indigestion. In this way, it cures pains after eatf'jg,' furred tongue, loss of appetite, Headaches, langour, biliousness, constipation, sleeplessness, low spirits, and "nerves" Mr: B. .Batcih 4elor, 32,' Palmer street Fitzroy, Victoria, says:— "Some twelve years back, I first bVgan to feel.the symptoms of Indigewtion, and I was coon very ill indeed. The pains in my stomach after eating were terrible and at times I was completely doubled up with intense agony. Everything I took in the shape of food caused me more or less trouble and distress. 1 lost jboth Wedgh?and- strength, and fell away, all round. I tried all sorts of mtedicines and misjturefi retiommended by friendis and chemists, but could not get) relief or ease. I consulted several doctors, but I had to ! be content with temporary relief. My life become little short of a burden, and I almost despaired of ever getting better. I was advised! to go for a sea trip and went to West Australia, but the trip did not make any improvement in my condition. >; Speaking to,* friend after myNjeturn," says Mr Blatchelor, "he advised noje to try Mother Seigel's Syrup, saying het knew of several cases as bad as my own which had been permantly cured by that medicine. I bought, a 'bottle, although I really thought that it would prove as use| leas as the many other things I ha<l tried. After using it for a few days! however, I found to my very pleasanc surprise that my stomach pains wetfe not nearly so severe. Thus encouraged, I persevered with the remedy, gaining health and strength all the while, until after emptying six bottles "of Mother SeigeFs Syrup, I wasa new man—l was quite cured and could eat anything without any evil after-effects. I am thankful to "say J am stall in: good health."

WHAT IT MEANS TO NEW

ZEALAND.

The Panama Canal will cost tJie United States £40,000,000, and it is expected to prove a splendid bargain. The purpose of the canal is to shorten distances by the water routes connecting the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. From ±ievr York to San Francisco, by the Straits of Magellan, the present route for steamers, the distance is 13,714 nautical miles, and from New Orleans to San Francisco 14,114 miles. By v,-ay of the (Panama Canal the distance from New York will be 52<99 miles and from New Orleans 4698 miles, the route from New York being shortened Sl4's miles, and from Nfew Orleans 9416 miles. From New York to the principal nitrate of soda port of Ghili, Iqiyque—'the city haying the heaviest export tonnage of any place on the west coast of South America—the present steamer route is 92211 nautical miles long; from Hamburg; the distance is 10,011 miles; whereas 'by the Panama Oanal the figures for New arc 4021 (a saving of 5200 miles), and from Hamburg: 7189 (a gain of 2552' miles). That the United States will gain;eDormously is clear; but so will the general commerce of the world. From San Francisco via Callao, the Straits of Magellan, and; Pernambi.co to Liverpool is 14,081 marine miles; via Panama the distance is i 803-8 miles'—4so46 miles less. The' Panama Canal, will bring iNew Yjvk nearly 4000 miles nearer Sydney, Australia and about 6000 miles closer to New Zealand. The effect of the proposed waterway on the length of these few representative routes shears how greatly the lines of the world's commerce will be modified. For i>ll time to come, American industries and the trade of every nation will annual derive the immeasurable advantages resulting from improved facilities for commercial intercourse.
