We know of no way in which we can be of more service to our readers than to tell them of something that will be of real good to them. For this reason we want to acquaint them with what we consider one of the very best reme- dies on the market for coughs, colds, and that alarming complaint, croup. We refer to Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. We have used it with such good results in our family so long that it has become q household necessity.
 By it's prompt use we haven't any doubt but that it has time and again prevented crOup. The testimony is given upon our own experience, and we suggest that our readers, especially those who have small children, always keep it Tn their homes as safeguard against croup.-Camden(S.

A visit to the Hot Lakes district Of Rotoma had long been looked forward to by me, and an opportunity to do so offering itself to me short time ago, gladly availed myself of it. Leaving Thames by rail at 9 in the morning, a three hours ride brought me to Nor rinsville, where three-quarters of an hour was spent waiting for the train for ROtOma to arrive from Auckland
 AS soon as the train arrived 1 boarded the same, and at , p. III. ROtoma was reached. At the railway station was met by MT Brent, proprietor of Bathgate House hotel, so called be- cause it is near the gate of the sanato- rum, in the grounds of which are the famous baths, viZ., the "Madame Ra- chel, "The Priest'S," and the "Post- master's." These are natural springs of hot water, ranging from 100 to lOS degrees, and which are much valued for their curative properties. The one l enjoyed most was the Madame Rachel,' but as 1 was not in search of health only took the baths for enjoy ment. Patients take two, three or even more each day. In some cases they are very enervating. The hotel at which I stopped was a long strag- gling building, one story high only, but there were several corridors, named after streets. The number of my room was B, Paradise street. 1 found sev- eral acquaintances from various parts of the colony staying at this hotel, so that 1 was among friends at once. Next morning Sunday 1 held service in the Presbyterian church, at which a number of my friends were present. In the afternoon 1 took a stroll through the sanatorium grounds, and went as far as Ohinemutu, the old township. On the way 1 had a chat with few natives whom I met. In the evening I again preached, the church being well filled, and after service l took a Madame Rachel' bath, and retired steaming to bed.
