Far, Far into the Future

It can be said that in no enlightened country in the world is fair play held in higher esteem than in Great Britain; nowhere else are people so sensitive to what 15 just, and just in proportion as they are sensitive; they are ever ready to concede what is right. They have their standards of judgment not founded on prejudice, and their organs of opinion neither narrow minded nor selfish to -Inch they adhere mfiexibly. So when the foremost of weir great newspapers and journals-the the surest, and most searching of '«c Anglo-Saxon race-began in the li«ht «science to speak unreservedly, and in a manner as quoted below, tho auguries of weess to the object of their encomiums were as bright as the sun. For instance, TLa- don Sunday T"»es," concluding •^ing article upon the value of a great fccovery, says : "This, added to what our Wu ,eXperience and inquiries have SV°7 ard ' musfc Place !t in reputa ao t 6 !tOP of ths list> a»d sa«sfy the tt*t. nicredulous that it accomplishes all £of rr edforit>" The " Londo» Maga- Se f mn femi3t7 and Medicine " Polishes SelTkablefacts'and W "that their $ ■ f haus tive tests, given it as JKKTP^itiaadiscovely of mar- GS-S 1??'- Tho London ''Christian CSsiS1 eS S re? ital of convinc possible to siv to.

John Lamb, Esq. Dear Sir,—lt has been on my mind for some time now to drop you a line about your Patent Porridge Meal. I believe you are aware I have suffered considerably from injury to ihostoniach | from tea-lasting, and having consulted my ; medical adviser, he strongly recommended Porridge for breakfast, which I have taken until I heard of your Patent Porridge Meal. I may here say tho Oatmeal soon caused unplea santness, sourness of the stomach, and pimples and spots, with irritation, on the surface of the body. From this 1 wan glad to get away, and at once took to your Patent Porridge Meal. With it I find none of the irregularities com plained of above, but a most palatable Porridge, and the whole system free from unpleasantness or irritation. 1 can strongly recommend it, and certainly think you should do a large trade in such an excellent article—Yours very truly, (Signed) FREDK. VVHITEHEAD. Industrial School, Kohimarama, Auckland, June :', It>B7. Mr John Lamb. Sir,—Wo have now been using your Patent Porridge Meal at this school for two months, and I consider it but right to inform you that we all (staff as well as boys) like it so well that I would xlnd it a difficult matter to get thorn to return to using oatmeal. It is without a doubt a splendid article of diet. I may add on my representing to tho Education Department in Wellington that I was using your Patent Por ridge Meal instoad of Oatmeal, I received authority from Rev. Mr Habcns, Secretary' for Education, to continue its use in the schcoi. —Yours faithfully, (Signed) GEORGE P. HOGAN,- Manager. Ponsonby, Auokland, May 30,1557.

He was weakly, and refused every food preparation that cou d be got, but upon gottiiiß' some of youi'3 ho took to it at once, and afterwards nothing would salisfy nim but this porridge. Five or six times a day is not too ■much for him, and seeing it being prepared cried until he got it. He is now strong and healthy, and can eat anything.
