Knights of the cue and chalk arc in for a good time John Roberta, the billiard champion, has written to Barton, MoGHI ana Co., the local makers of billiard tables, that he leaves Sydney on the 7ih, and will be in Auckland on Sonday week. He Btates that^dbring his stay here he will give an exhibition, and will then go South. Mr Roberts is also open for engage* ment by clubs, etc. ; the terms may be had from Barton and McGill. Who wouldn't be a brainless fool With heaps of gllst'ning gold, Than some poor scholar fresh from school Thrast homeless on the world ?■■ Who wouldn't rather lose his wealth Than coughs and colds endure ? Then be content, enjoy good health, Take Woods' Great Peppermint Gore.
