The Conference lasted several hours, and was fruitless, the Legislative* Council refusing to give way on its amendments dealing with the lodger vote and tha election of Mayor. Sir W J Lyne, in announcing the result to the Legislative Assembly, said that the development had precipitated a crisis _ecessitating grave consideration. In order to consider the situation, he would allow the matter to stand over until Tuesday.

Richmond Street, Petone, September 28,1899 The Proprietors of '• Plantekoa/' Sirs,—For aome time past 1 have been a martyr to Indigestion, Chronic Liver Trouble, and General Debility, For days at a time I used to be in agony with pain in the region of the stomach, and all the medicines 1 tried gave me no relief. I was attended by the doctor for some time, with no permanent result. Being advised to take your Botanic Remedy, lam pleased to say I acted on this advice, and One Bottle has made a complete change in me. My friends (the doctor included) are all remark ing about the wonderful improvement in my appearance, and'l can honestly recommend' Plantekoa to all who suffer as I have done. Yours sincerely, MRS J. SMITH. Got his Thumb jammed in the door of the Guard's Van, but •' Plantekoa" Oint ment healed ib in a Fortnight. Taiba, October 15,1899 Proprietors *'Plantekoa.'*" Dear Sirs, —I am writing to inform you that I have used your Plantekoa Ointment with most gratifying results. About five months ago I had the misfortune to get my hand caught in the door of the guard's van at the Lower Hutt Railway Htation. My thumb was badly cruehe', and in a few hours ib was terribly swollen and as bl»ck as my hab. Some of my friends stated that i, would be necessary to have my thumb taken off, and I thought nyself that I would require surgical aid. Having your P;a_t_koa Ointment in the House (we always keep it), I had my thumb bandaged with it, continu ing the application for several days. The result was astounding Iv a fortnight ib was completely healed, aud a, eound as ib was before the accident. It is with pleasure I send you this note that other sufferers may be induced to try Plantekoa. Yours truly, WILLIAM WHITTINGTON Ask your Chemist or Storekeeper for it.
