The Public want Boots that will keep cut the damp, and that will wear well and are comfortable. All these qualifications can be obtained at moderate prices without any trouble or risk by purchasing nothing but the celebrated ZEALANDIA BRAND. These Grand Boots are sold from Auckland to the Bluff, and the universal verdict is—the most satisfactory Boot m New Zealand, and the best value. The finest material and best workman ship are employed, and so confident are the Manufacturers of the sterling quality of these Boots that they actually guaran tee every pair bearing the Zealandia Brand to give good wear. Should any pair fail, ( the Bbtailer is authorised to adjust the claim of the purchaser. In addition to the every day lines, a large number of new lines has been especially manufactured for the Winter Trade. Strong Farm Boots for Men and Women a Specialty, and attention is directed to the Splendid Stitched Water tight and Shooter Boots, very suitable and comfortable for country work.

A patient at the Wellington Hospital re recently (says the " Post ") puzzled the doctors. To all appearance he was well during the day, but at night his temperature rose as much as 140 degrees. Anxious consultations were held, and everything possible was done; but still came this phenominal rise at night, and the medical men were completely at a loss to account for it, and for the internal pains of which the man complained. Final'y, the man Was watched, and it was found that m his desire to remain m the institution he was m the habit of inserting the thermometer m the hot poultices applied to relieve his ••internal pains," and so produced the results which so startled nurses and doctors. The attendants said nothing to the malingerer, but next day the doctor informed him thrt he was now convalescent, and he was discharged, still protssting that he was hi a state of collapse, and citing bis abnormal night temperature as evidence. Keating's Cough Lozenges cure Coughs Asthma, Bronchitis. Medical testimony states that no other medicine is so effectual m the cure of those dangerous maladies. Oae lozenge alone gives ease, one or two at bedtime ensures rest. For relieving difficulty of breathing they are invaluable. They contain no opium nor any violent drug.
