NOW INFLUENZA IS ABOUT

DON’T GET RUN-DOWN AND NERVY. Everyone is open to the infection of ; influenza, but it is all according to (your reserve of vitality whether the attack will be severe or slight. Now colds and influenza are so preval■ent it is positively dangerous to go ’about feeling run-down and worn (out. The after effects of an attack | ran be very distressing. Often it I leaves the sufferer low and depressed, (nervous, sleepless, and with vague 1 pains in head and limbs. | People who are feeling weak, over:tired, nervy and despondent should [guard their health by building up and (enriching their blood with the aid of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. These pills contain the necessary elements that help to increase the haemoglobin and red corpuscles of the blood. At a large hospital, and by an independent medical practitioner, tests have been made which prove it. When your system {has been refreshed, revitalized with it he new rich blood that Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills help to create, you will enjoy new energy, restored nerves, (healthy appetite, splendid digestion iand a new interest in life. A short course during and after an attack of influenza is essential for keeping up I bodily resistance. At. chemists and stores, 3/- per bottle. Say “Dr. Williams’." and take not other.—Advt.

RUGBY FOOTBALL I HAUTAPU v. UTIKU Hautapu and Utiku played a drawn; game on Saturday, each side scoring • six points. The match lacked “fire- ! works” and calls for little description. { The teams lined out as follows: { Utiku (green).—Corcoran, R. Gabo- • linscy, Marshall, O. Johansen, L. Johansen, D. Barrell, W. Maher, J. I Henry, H. Henry, J. Gabolinscy, C. I Dickson, T. Potaka, A. Clinton, D.' O’Dee, A. Deadman. i Hautapu (blue and black). -White-1 man, Keats, Nicholson, Findlay, I Moore, Forbes, McLennan, Spooner,! Thompson, O'Brien, O Callagnan, Sis-1 son, Hall, Gregory. Utiku kicked oil into the glaring | sun which at first proved troublesome. • Nevertheless, they kept play on Lht ; Hautapu side of tne half-way for sev- ; eral minutes. Blues were penalised * in a handy position but H. Johanson s • kick went just under the cross bar. A few minutes afterwards Hautapu ; were penalised again and this time ■ Johansen made no mistake with the j kick—Utiku 3, Hautapu U. Utiku: continued to apply pressure but j Whiteman retrieved any territorial ; gain with faultless line kicking. Clin- ; ton and Dickson were outstanding in a fast forward rush to the line and a' tight scramble looked like danger for : the blues, but again Whiteman reliev- ■ ed the tension. The blues gave a try | away when Findlay punted across the ( goal line for a touch down, when the i blues were defending. The ball did j not reach its objective and Gabolinscy i fielded to score an easy try just at | the end of the first spell. The kick, 1 ; failed—Utiku 6, Tautapu 0. On the resumption of play Utiku , took advantage of the sun and stampeded to the 25. Whiteman cleared and Hautapu came back in full force. Inside the green 25 Hautapu caught the greens napping and Nicholson i picked up from the loose and ran down the line to score a try. The kick failed.—Utiku 6, Hautapu 3. The blue backs came again with a tine passing bout in which all the backs handled, but Forbes was forced out near the corner flag. The next try came as a surprise to everybody. The i greens were on the defence, and the 1 ball came out of the ruck and rebounded off an Utiku player, and Keats was on the spot and tore down the line to score a try. Gregory's kick went outside the upright. Hautapu 6, Utiku 6. Blues went all I out to establish a lead but infringed I near the line. Whiteman fielded | Johansen’s kick, and punted out to. the wing. Henry ran up and punted : hard down field. Play became more) exciting at this stage and the blues ,' seemed to be getting the best of it. Hautapu went very close to getting ! two more tries but could not shatter < the defence and the game ended with | - the scores unchanged. I ■ Mr. W. Healey was referee.
