I HAVE NO OBJECTION TO BIS CUSS the following subjects with either the St. James's or any other OiscufHsion Class ;— Did Julius Caesar ever weur a BoUtopner, or, it he did, was it anything equal to tho^e J anisei ling at 8a? Did. he -wear a Satin Scart on Sun days, or, if ao, was it rb good as wine at is! Did hia mother -wear a Crinoline, and, if so, could it possibly be equal to mine at 1h 6d, un lpsa ahe stole it,? Did. Mrs. Julius Cte-ar wear Josephine Kid Gloves, or, admitting that she did, which I think is doubtful, were they equal to mine at Is 6d a pair! Did Mary Queen ot I Scots use a Hand Mirror, or was it as handsome dr as large as I sell tor 3*l Were Dress Im- I nrovers in fashion in her time? or were they a Xas good as mine at 6d each1? Wera there any ' jrtabies in the 9th century, or, if so, did their mothers buy them Puff Boxes wivh puff like I mine at Is 6d ? "Was Shakespeare ever talked ot half so much in his time by the ladies as W. H. Dampier is ? Do the Ladies of Auckland care aa much to read the "Twelve Tribes of Israel as they do to read Dampier's advertisements l shall, of course, take the negative side on all the above subjects if called upon, excepting "Were here any Babies in the 9th century," winch I am not quite prepared to deny entirely, but firni/y believe that they were not half so numerous in Auckland at that time as they appear to be now. And now, Ladies, I have to talk about subjects a little more serious. \ou know the Fashionable Two-button Kid Gloves I bought you lately? well, there are only three pairs left oat of 20 dozen, so let that be a warn ing to thobe ladies "who put off till to-morrow what they should do to-day. 1 have now a nice lot of Fresh Bargains, including Josephine Kid Gloves, but only No. 6 size mind, so that it is necessary to have either children or girls, or to have very small hands yourself. Those ladies who are always behind will stand a good chance, if they don't mint!, of being too lato also for my new lovely thickly-fringed Silk Scarves at Is 6d, and which are going well. Before I forgot it, I beg to terider the ladies my i-incere thanks for bringing their husbands with them lately to buy Hats and Vests of me, and when I get into Parliament, which " may" be next year, I won't, as far as I am concerned, allow any duty to be put on Babies' Cradles, though babies are so plentiful. I may as well 'ell the ladies, how ever, that I have a " down" on infants from one to two years old, as they rob me at every opportunity. They are not particul«r whether it is a pair of Pretty Blue or Red BootP, which I sell, " when they let me," at Is 9d, or whether it is a reel of my Machine Thread, for Which they can have no earthly use, and which are gome; fast at 3d. I have already sold, aa near as I can toll, about 8 dozen of the Falls from 91 to Is taoh.

The Australian Anti-Fever Tree—That is, the Blue Gum, or Eticalytus globulus—has now spread its fame throughout the world, though many do not properly estimate its splendid qualities. The Essence as manufactured by Messrs Sander and Son, although not a panacea for every ill that flesh is heir to, is, nevertheless a Grand Remedial Agent. In Scarlet, Typhoid, or any case of Fever, nothing will protect better against contagion than a few drops of the essence poured in the palm of the hand, and rubbed in, in order to liberate the vapours, or sprinkled over the clothes. The perfume will be noticed for a great length of time. Inwardly used, take three or our drops in half a tumbler water. The essence effects a most surprising change of {the whole constitution, correcting Indigestion, and creating a Healthy Appetite. In Cases of Sickness, a few drops put into a saucer, and put into the room, will, being an etheric essence, evaporate, and fill the room with the purifying vapour. Are you obliged to travel 2 A few drops oc casionally rubbed on the body will protect against any contagion you may be exposed to in coming direct with sick persons, or in sleeping in the same room with, or in beds occupied pre viously by, sick persons All Hotelkeepers will do well in sprinkling from time to time in drawers, where linen is usually kept, a few drops of the pure essence. It produces no spots whatever, as every particle of it evaporates, and nothing remains. For all Wounds, Cuts, Burns, Scaldmgs.Ulcers and Cancerous Wounds, a piece, of Mnen wrapped round the suffering part, and moisted with a few drops of the eucalypti essence, will stop all pain, and effect a speedy cure. In cases where a piece of linen cannot be applied, the moistening of the suffering part with the pure essence will do as well. In Case of Colds, moisten the nostrils with a ' few drops and inhale the vapour, and you will feel the immediate relief and entire riddance of the heat. __ ■■ i Sole Agent for Auckland and District: < A I C X I N, The Pharmacy, Queen-street, Auckland j
