“AUSSIE." The latest issue of “Aussie" is entitled “Dave's" number. “Dave" is the backbone of the farm and. of all the bush people, and therefore a most popular subject of good humour. Artists and writers from all over New Zealand and Australia have given of their best to this number. It will be noticed that the writers and artists of “Aussie" in the stories, paragraphs, verses, jokes and drawings, have shown their understanding of “Davc.'s" hardships, while they have not missed anything of

his good humour. As usual the N.Z. section is quite an interesting feature, particularly the literary page. “ Aussie" is on sale at all booksellers.

“HUMOUR." Recent copies of “Humour," which we have received again, show the wonderful fund of humour that the editor of this paper has at his di.-posal. His pictures, stories and jokes are drawn from the leading humorous papers throughout the world. Sindl wonder is it, therefore, that “Humour" is the brightest threepenny paper on the market.
