    m UNIQUE HEALTH RESORT! The undersigned are prepared to accommodate two or three ladies or gentlemen in weak health, on their comfortable, well-found, schooner-yacht, the “ Moeeyan,” now working the Dugong fishing-grounds in the secluded bays and estuaries of the Queensland coast. The wife of the senior partner is on board, and the benefits of cultured society, home comforts, boating, fishing, shooting, natural history research, Divine Service on Sunday, piano, &c., may be enjoyed. Indeed, without exagger- ation, the life is charming, and most healthful. A large portion of the food is prepared with Dugong Stearine, and as they have had many years’ experience in the industry and its adjuncts, they are in a position to offer the best diet, attention, &c.,than can possibly be obtained in special cases. The Hon. J. IEGLTS (Minister for Education, N.S.W.), spent some weeks at one of their stations, and devoted a chapter to them in his entertaining book Our Aus- ti'cilian Cousins, and attention is particularly invited to the condensed report of the Hon. Dr. HOBBS’ lecture on Elaiopathy, to be found on page 6 of the pamphlet Dunheved Island, of which they will be pleased to send a copy, if desired, gratis. Terms for guests are moderate, and can be obtained on application. If required, quarters are available for an invalid’s servant, and if such an one makes himself or herself generally useful the charge would be nominal. It is also proposed to establish a sanatorium for invalids on Dunheved Island. J. LIONEL CHING & COMPANY, From LAUNCESTON, CORNWALL. Manufacturers of Ching’s Dugong Oil and “Infallible” Ointment.
