The Coming Coronation.

INVITATIONS TO COLONIAL PREMIERS

The London correspondent of the Otago Daily Times, under" date July 20th, says:—-It is semiofficially an« Bounced that according to the present intentions of the Imperial Government Invitations will be gent to the Prime Ministers of »ll tho British coloni s and States to be present at the Coronation of his Majesty King Edward VII in the month of June next

Accord ing- to the plan of procedure In contemplation, the invitations will be sent to each Premier and his wife as was done on the occasion of the late Queen Victoria's diamond jubilee four years ago, and the arrangements will be as nearly as possible on the same liberal and hospitable basis. It is tally expected that the Invitations will be very largely accepted, if not un^ni mouily, and that consequently an ex eefMocftliy large gathering ofrepresen. ialtive colonists will assemble in Lon don in Jane, 1902 With the object of utilising so far us possible the presence of so many prominent colonial statesmen, the Ooreroraent, or at any rate Mr Ohsmberlaio, baa in contemplation the holding of a sort of Imperial Con ference or •'' Pan-Britannic assembly, for the purpose of considering all the questions of mutual import that have arisen as between the mother country and her dependencies daring the last few years, more particularly since the outbreak of the South African war, and the remarkable manifestation of Imperial sentiment and loyalty on the p«rl of the colonies which that war has elicited One question of mush gravity and Urgency which it Is suggested might well come before such a conference is that of Imperial defence in its special colonial aspect, and that reference alike ta- the needs aod liability to attack of tie varloai colonies, and also to the capacity of each for contributing in a reasonable measure toward the cost of iuffiolenS u&val protection, alike of the portf, the coast, And the maritime eomnaeroe.

Other subjects which it la kitended ttt bring before such a conference, if it takes place, may be grouped under the general heading of the commercial} re lations between Great Britain and her dependencies. There are several points tnoiudiog customs tariSa,postal services eiCj which it is thought might profitably be discussed on such an occasion and by auea an assembly.

k WOMAN'S MESSAGE TO N&W 25EALANDERS.

Mrs F£C Vavtse, who keeps a neat little store in Napier Street, Auck land; should under ordinary eircuui fctAQeeahave b«!en a very happy woman, Bat for some time daring her life, sha #ac H martyr to debility and sick head achesj and other ills, & condition ihdeed, under which none could pos sibly be happy, frt was only to be expected that Mrs Yause would have fetrivlan to be caredk This she did, and consuaied a great quantity of patent medicines. She eventually took Bile Be&ns for Biliousness, and they having cured her, a represpntative was sent to interview the lady, and she volun teered the following remarks} —' My name is Mrs E H Vause. I was a

martyr to debility and sick and ner vous headache for some time. Ho much so that life became simply a burden to me. I could retain nothing on my stomach, and retching was a daily occurrence, Beef tea would not even remain on my stomach. At times I became dizzy, and frequently found it impossible to stand without holding on to something. My case

waa no ordinary one, and to effect a

cure, I tried many so-called remedies, * bafi I bad littlo faith in tb(m. I was advised to try Bile Beans, and I decided to do bo. I commenced with half a bean as a dose, and I continued taking them until I had used seven boxes, and can honestly say that they effected a cure, that to me, and those who know me, is considered simply marvellous. It is now six or seven ttonths since I have stopped taking the Means, and dtmng that time I

hare only had a slight) attack of retch ing; lam now able to take my meals regularly and with enjoyment—a cir camstance, which at one time, I never hoped to attain again.' Bile Beans

for Biliousness are without doubt superior to all known medicines for liver and kidney disorder, blood im* titirities, ulcers, pimples, constipation, headache, debility, narvoaaness, female ailment^ coide, chill, indigestion, bur ring In the head, pain between the shoulder, rheumatism, and as a pre ventive cf Influenza Obtainable Iron) all Chemists and Storekeepers.

A Life Saved Sixteen Months of Awful Suffering Impure blood is always dangerous. Just as soon as yon begin to feel weak and languid, nervous and depressed, you are in clanger. Make your blood pure and your nerves strong at once. Mr. Thomas 11. Cashel, of Dripstone, New South Wales, Australia, sends us this letter, with his photograph: " I was suddenly taken very ill and for threo weeks was delirious nearly all the time, and 1 my life was despaired of. The doctors said it was blood poisoning. For many long weelcs I suffered tlie most frightful agony; the poison ing all settled in one limb. I then went to Sydney Hospital, where dead pieces of bone were taken from my leg. But I grew weaker and weaker, until I could hardly raise my hand. 1 then left the hospital, believing I must surely die. Then my people bought me a bottle of . ■ AVER'S Sarsaparilla It did me good at once. la all 1 used fifteen bottles, without doubt it saved my life, even after sixteen months of suffering."'

Most of the exports of the United States come from territory around the great lakes »nd the Western States. These exports have hitherto had to be carried by railway from Chicago to the great seaboard cities, such as Kew, York and Boston, and shipped thence to their destinations,, a costly and of ton unsatisfactory arrangement. The new route should prove an ad vantage not only to American but to British exporters, for by means of these new steamers it is now possible lor British exporters to send goods to ObicagOj the great centre of North Amerisan trade, at a cheaper rate than, owing to the cost of rail from New York and other seaboard cities to Chicago, has hitherto been possible, and the goods will arrive in perfect coniiitlon, which ia never a certainty by the older roate in the cape of cer tain clases of goods owing to their transfer* nee from steamer to rail and Subsequent handling.
