The votaries of. olj Issac Walton's "gentle art" were quick to take advantage cf the opening of the season, for a very few hours after the season opened one of the town residents was seen coming paat Cobdeu bridge with a fine trout weighing about 151bs, its tail trailing on the gmuud. No doubt a good many more have been ciptured since, as a good many fish have been seen during the close season ii the river and its tributari-.s Grey Argu3. The Weslejan Menticultural Society held l's closing social in the Horti cultural Hall last evening. A very excellent programme was provided by the committee. The various items were of especial merit, and it would be inviduom to particularise the performers, as one and all did remarkably well, and several eucores were demanded by an enthusiastic audience. The following took part : - Mesdarnos Gi'antand Eickard, and Misses Reynolds, Duff, Dowell, Eastabrook, Duncan, Stapleton, Day, Harkc, and Messrs Roie and Ralfe, and Masters Dowell and Eastabrook. The accompanists were Misses Ward, ■ Scraggs, Mesdames iGrant, Riokard, and Mr G. Kirk. Refreshments kiudly provided by the ladies wero banded round and done ample justice to." - The social was bi ought to a close after those present bad participated in a number of indoor game*.

A great deal of cipiial was attempted t^be made of this fact yisterdoy and very urn easonabl? and unjustly so seeing that we gave "R.VV.* 1 a' large jarabunt of 1 space io the previous" issue io, ventilate, his opinion?.

The Waikuku correspondent of the Lyttelton Times writes :— The cold, showery weather that Las prevailed for the last two weeks is provir g very detrimental to the farmers in North Cmter--bury. • The crops around the Woodend; Waikuku and Sef ton districts are making >small progress for this time of'thfe year, although, owing to the heavy rains in early winter, weeds appear to be growing iri abundance. The land during the last ;wo months has been too hard working, and - seed which has laiely been sown is germinating very irregularly. Grass is 'making slow growth, and the milk supply to the local factories is suffering in consequence. Lambing "is Z'well advanced, but owing to the late, wintry v weather one heats of a few losses'on exposed farms. Fortunately-the ewes are generally in fairly goo-i conditions, and the results as a y whole are likely to be very satisfactory. With a view of saving the life of Mi3s Mary Affeldt the seventeen year old loom tender who hid her hair and scalp torn off by machinery in the American Fel.' Company's woollen mill at Glenville near Port Cheater, several weeks ago, a dozen of her compuiions are giving up pieces of their skin for her (says the New York Tribune of July 31). Dr W. J. Sheehan began the skia grafting pioces3 in the Ladies Hospital at Port Chester on Tues day, when cufciclo was cut, fiom the bodies of Frederick Dobbrow, Thomas M'Kecver, John Deady, Julius Techloff, and Edward Moore. Strips of skin six indies long and one inch wide wrre cut from etch of their thig'i ; an-1 grafte-J on the girl's head. As soun ;u this skin has healed somewhat eight j;irls who worked in the mill path Miry, auJ who are the Misses Josie Swint, Millie Tcch'off, Kate Eigan, Laura Hassan, Florence Techloff, Annie Mocre, Annie Petkey, and Mary Petkey. will permit Dr Sheehan to clip off pieces of their ekin to help save the millhand's life. Mary's entire head will have to be covered with a ne^ coating of ekin. Chamberlain's Cough Rekedy cures the cold and does noc • produce any bad effects.

r IS TOUR STOMACH STRONG ?'

This is a pertinent question and one that every individual should period ca'ly endeavour to auswer honestly. The stomach is the vital et-ntre of the human system; it is the organ from which all other organs are fed and derive their strength. Whoever knew of a strong man with a weak sibmae^, that is, a man whose digestion was impaired, h your stomach strong ? Are your bowels regular ? Is your blood rich' and pure, and your skin free from pimples, boils, and ; blotches ? Is your liver sluggish ? Do! you feel bilious, nervous, depressed, andi irritable ? If so, you are not well, and if i you do no.t promptly take.lmpe.y's Mpy! Apple the ideal family medicine, you; will soan be very ill.
