The Premier believes that the depression will soon disappear, and stated m proof of this that the deposits in the Post Office Savings Bank at present are one million and three quarters sterling.

Dickson, Masterton, is held over. Messrs Veitch & Allan’s new advertisement will appear in oar next. A correspondent of the Post, writing from the Wairarapa, suggests that the railway department should run their excursion trains ou a Monday instead of Saturday. “ The bulk of country people (he says) are trades people and farmers. The former cannot get away at all on Saturdays, and the latter, or at least their wives and families, are specially busy at this time of the week. On, say a Monday, both classes could leave home with a minimum of inconvenience, or even on anv day except Saturday.” He also calls aliention to the neglect of the department to advertise excursion trains fully. He says—- “ The recent issue of cheap tickets was, for instance, advertised in the Greytown paper only on the Friday, or just the day preceding the day of issue. The result is that the people who get their papers are probably already bound by other engagements, and that in the majority of oases the subscribers being backwoodsmen, don’t see the advertisement until the day referred to is passed.” We ate glad to find these subjects taken up by one of the public. Greater publicity will, we believe, be given in future to the running of excursion trains. We hope also that periodical excursion trains will ba run—not for the sake of an opera or a theatrical company, but for the good of the public. When Moriarty’s Jubilee price list was read, It created the greatest sensation ; All the small dealers unitedly said “ He’ll certainly startle the nation.” They were right indubitably—wait and yen’ll see, 'Tis the best celebration of our Queen’s Jubilee, You have no doubt read the price list; see that you now examine the goods. m “ Rough on Itch.” " Bough on Itch ’’ cures skin humors, eruptions, ring worm, letter, suit rheum, frosted feet, chilblains, heli, ivy poison, barber's itch.
