It is said that a few week© ago a little girl, about 13 years of age, who had gone to the hospital for some simple throat trouble, was found on examination to have her heart on the right side instead of the left, and that all her internal organs were transposed. She was quite a strong, healthy little girl, and had won competitions at children's outdoor games. The case caused a good deal of discussion at the time, and it is stated that the Clinical Society had the matter under discussion, states the Auckland ‘‘ Star.” Such oases, however, are not unknown in the Auckland Province. Only recently a pioneer settler well up to three-score years and ten. and healthy looking enough to see another score of years, related that when lie was a young man and wanted to get his life insured he was told that diie heart was in the WTong place, and that on no account could his life bo insured. He "went on his wav, doing whatever hard pioneering work fell to his lot, and is still able to do a. hard day's work. He says he has often excelled at work many big robust looking men, and that if he had to live his life over again he would just like hi 3 heart in exactly the same place as it is now. “ Fancy paying eight guineas for a suit to order, when you can get a fit in an English worsted like tliis for 69s 6d," remarked a man as he glanced at himself in the mirror at Glasson’s Warehouse yesterday.
