The Rest Cure.

Mr Seddon has gone to Australia for three weeks’ rest. —News item. Anybody can read for himself how much he is enjoying the rest. A reposeful reception soothed his arrival, followed by a tranquil banquet and a peaceful conference with Australian legislators. Next day he made a serene and unexciting train journey to the Hawkesbury College. and. according to the newspaper reports. spent a calm sequestered hour with the gentle student in his native lair, returning to a further dose of conference and a banquet in the evening, and every day after that so far R. J. Seddon has been making restorative train journeys, taking courses of nerve tonic banquets, and going in for mental recreation in the shape of interviews, shipping conferences, speeches and other forms of quiet rest. By the time he returns he will have had a real enjoyable holiday after his own heart. Meantime, while his back is turned, it will add greatly to his enjoyment and comfort .to learn that his friends have seized the opportunity to talk reconstruction and utter Veiled threats about what is going to happen with Sir Joseph Ward away. The most violent of his opponents would hardly descend to that.—“ Christchurch Truth.”
