WATER FOR HOSPITAL

KAWHIA SUPPLY SCHEME. HAMILTON, Jan. 17. A report regarding the water supply to the Kawhia Hospital was presented •at a meeting of the Waikato Hospital Board to-day by the board’s architects, Messrs. Edgecombe and White. It was stated that the present supply comprised a concrete storage tank, augmented by waler from a main with which eight residents were also connected. As the hospital was the last and highest on the main, lhe supply was sometimes very small. A spot had been found about 30 yards from the hospital which gave promise of a good supply of water at a depth estimated at 120 ft. Authority was given for a test btfre to be put down for a supply scheme presented by the architects, to be proceeded with if the water proved satisfactory. Advice was received that the Minister of Health, the Hon. J. A. Young, had approved the granting by the board of £3OO to the Kawhia Medical Association, £lOO to the Mokai Medical Club, and a subsidy of Is 3d a member a month to the Huntly Unemployed Workers’ Medical Club, for periods of 12 months, and a grant of £ll 10s to the Te Akatea Miners’ and Settlers’ Medical Association for tour months. “STEEPED TO THE LIPS IN MISERY.” -Longfellow. Bright summer’s day—light clothing —sudden change —cold wind—and a resultant cold. You certainly do feel “steeped to the lips in misery.” Take Baxter’s Lung Preserver—-soothes and relieves from the very first dose. Possesses unique tonic properties which protect against further attacks. All chemists and stores sell “Baxters”. Time has proved its efficacy. Three sizes extra large 4s lid, liberal size 2s 6d, and pocket size .Is 6d. —
