Rather an amusing incident; occurred on the Timaru.'Showgrounds;, The -ponies were'ini;the; ring. and .the class under 10 hands was. being judged. It was suggested! that ' .they i„ be photo-graphed-Twrfch'thEee of.lthe.biggest men available at the-moment. . The suggestion-. was>at . onoe: acted oh l and;: Messrs; J. S.

Howls, visit the Grey 'Street'Hot Baths, where a nice,hot plunge, followed by a .cold'/ shower, will- remove all traces of tired- ■ ness, - and make you, feel it is. good to be alive even in these hot summer days. —Harry Hull, proprietor.* Somebody- has condensed the mistakes of life, and. arrived ;at- the conclusion that there are fourteen of them. Most people would say, if they told the truth, that there was no limit to the -mistakes of . life,; that, they were like , the drops in theoocehn, or the sands'Cf.tthe shore in number, but it is well to he accurate. .‘Here are fourteen- great mistakes: To set up/.our own .standard of .right and wrong/ and judge people accordingly; to measure the enjoyment of-others by their, own; to ; expect uniformity of opinion in this world; to look for judgment and experience in«youth; to endeavor to i mould all dispositions alike ; to yield -to immaterial trifles; to, look for perfection in our own actions; to worry ourselves .’and others with what cannot be remedied; not to alleviate as far as lies in our power j not to make allowances for the infirmities of others;. to consider everything impossible ,that we cannot perform; to believe only what our finite minds can grasp; to expect to be able to understand everything.” s A MISTAKEN NOTION, There is a prevailing opinion that it, is dangerous to stop diarrhoea too suddenly. That may be the case when an astringent medicine is used,, but there, is not. the least danger of stopping Jit too quickly when Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy is taken, as it is not an astringent, and stops the diarrhoea by curing the disease that caused it. As a rule only two. or three dose's are but in very severe cases.'a whole bottle is sometimes needed. Sold by E. D.
