He Explains the Pictures.

“This,” said the artist, “is a battle scene—time, say, the year 2000 A.D. The defending force is on the extreme right of the canvas” “I can’t see them,” observed Ms friend. "Certainly not; they are strongly entrenched” "Can't see any entrenchments. "Of course you can’t. The entrenchments are skilfully concealed from view.” “I should think you’d show some big guns or something.” "Nonsense! The guns are disappearing guns, and they have disappeared.” ’’Well, how about the attacking force?” “Over here on the left—all under cover. You can’t expect them to expose themselves to the spectator any more than to the enemy.” "Well, your picture is a mere landscape.” i es; but I take it that’s how a battle will look in the year 2000.”

HEMORRHAGES CONQUERED BY Vitadatio. Russell-street, Prospect, Adelaide, November 2, 1900. Mr. S. A. PALMER, 184, Pitt-street, Sydney. Dear Sir, —It is with pleasure 1 give mt testimony to the curative powers of X I I’ADATIO. My wife was a sufferer for two years with Hemorrhages, at first intermittently, and afterwards incessantly, throwing up alarming quantities of blood, and falling away to a mere skeleton, becoming also so weak that she could not walk about. The only consolation the doctors eould give 'was, that if the Hemorrhage was stopped consumption would follow. Various remedies were tried, but were of no use. I was then advised to try VITADATIO for her. which 1 did, although I was prejudiced against the remedy, thinking it was only another of those ”( ure-alls." To my surprise, however. before the fourth bottle was finished, the Hemorrhage had ceased, and from that time myw’i.e increased in weight, health and strength. Those who knew her condition can scarcely believe their own eyes, her condition now being so different. It is fully 15 months since the cure took place, ami there has been no return of the Hemorrhages. You may use this as you please for the information of others. WM. CAMERON, Storekeeper, late of Gawler. Witness George R. Davis, Adelaide. I’or further particulars, S. A. PALMER. WAREHOUSE, WATERLOG QUAY, WELLINGTON. Or. QUI EX oiREET. AUCKLAND.
