When counsel for a witness subpoenaed by the Cost of Living: Commission at Christchurch stated that his client declined to give evidence, the chairman (Mr. E. Tregear) asked if any reason could be stated. Counsel replied that he could not state a reason- The chairman: “I only ask because counsel in Dunedin refused evidence on behalf of a client, declining to state reasons, and then wrote to the newspapers giving the reasons which he had refused to give to the Commission.” A coroner’s jury at St-ockj>orl declared that long hatpins should l>e dispensed with or protected. The inquest was on a young woman whose death from blood-poisoning was caused by her nose being pricked' bv another woman’s hatpin- The coroner expressed the hope that women, if they insisted in being in the fashion, should take care that, the pointed ends of pins were protected by shields. “In Hamburg and in America,” he declared, ‘‘there iff legislation which prevents the use of unprotected pins. The | ‘deadly hatpin’ has caused many injuries owing to the fact that the pins project several inches beyond the hat, and are a constant danger.” DON’T NEGLECT A COMMON CASE OF PILES.
