AN OUNCE OP FACT IS WORTH A TON OF FICTION." Mr M'Kay. Dear Sir, — Od May 2nd of last yrar I chose this pair of " Zealandia " boots from the general stock in the City Boot Palace. I wore them frequently about Dunedin during the following six months, and then almost daily from November 2 till January 27 (86 days) for 1,050 miles, walking over the interior of Otago, crostiog a score of mountain ranges. On previous similar trampe I wore other makes, including real " Cookhams," but all those were in a sorry plight long before the journey's end. Alter twelve hundred miles' walking— mostly very rough— the original soles of tbi pair are still in fair condition, and the sewiDg of the same quite intact ; while, with the exception of a small hole in the crease of each heel, the uppers are good for another thousand miles. The boots received no special treatment — merely the application of neatefoot oil and blacking. Yours faithfully, Alex. Don, Chinese Missionary. Dunedin, February 3, 1892.
