THE JERUSALEM HOME.

Mother Mary Jospplv Auberfc asks us to insert the following: —

As an outcome of tho difficulty | which has existed for sonio timo be- i tween the Education Department and I Mother Mary Joseph Aubort with re- j gard to eight, Industrial " School chil- | dren boarded, out at the Home at Jerusalem, the Minister for Education has \ lcqucstod Mrs W. Williamson to inepeet these children once a month. This service being entirely gratuitous on tho part of Mrs "Williamson, Mr Hntrick ] has with great generosity offered a freo pass to and from Jerusalem, in order that the expanses of tho trip should not 1 fall on tho Home. Mother Mary Jo- ! soph bogs to 'offer the warmest, though inadequate, expression of her deep and cverlaßting_ gratitude to Mrs Williamson for this noble work of charity. Sho also wishes to return her most sincere ! thanks to Mr Hatrick, not only for the | freo pass offored to Mrs Williamson,-! but also for one he has with equal kindness offered to 'herself. Mother Mary Joseph desires to also acknowledge with, many thanks the receipt of two sacks of clothes and toys very kindly sent fot the children at the Homo by Mrs Ellis, Mrs Frere, and Mrs Wilson, of Waver- j ley. %

A West Coast paper announces "on roliablo authority that Mr Northcroft, the woll-known Hokitlka journalist, and brother of Mr 11. W. Northcroft, S.M., of Wangauui, intends contesting the Westland seat against tho Premier at the genoral election.

There seems to be much dissatisfaction amongst the local tradespeople generally in reference to the observance of holidays other than on the statutory day, and it appears that a number will not close tomorrow, nor will they on Wednesday, the first day of* the races. Tli6re is evory probability that an association will be formed to regulate holidays.

It Saves thu Children. — About one month ago my child, which is fifteen months old, had an attack of diarrhoea accompanied by vomiting. I gave it such remedies as are usually given in such cases, but as nothing gave relief, we sent for a physician and it was under his care for a week. At this time the child had been sick for about ten days and was having about twenty-five operations of the bowels every twelve hours, and we were convinced that unles3 it soon obtained relief it would not live. Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was recommended, and I decided to try it. I soon noticed a change for tho better ; by its continued use a completo cure was brought about and it is now perfectly healthy. —C. L. Boaas, Stumptown, Gilraer Co., Wi Va. For sale byR.
