Wales From the majority of them full trunk facilities were available WELLINGTON (NZ) Friday The British Rugby touring side meets Key Zealand in the first Test match at Dunedin to-morrow The prospects of a British vietorv are obsenrr i by difficulties the British selection commit have to contend with They have been sinKu larly unlucky in the number of injuries the have sustained and the final composition of team consequently has been delayed The first serious trouble was the injury to Sol ley and the lack of an efficient sul-t itute but the recent form of Murray as scrum df has been a source of satisfaction and it is honed that he and Spong will turn out to be a really efficient pair The Vital Factor Against Otago on Saturday the last match before the test the hard Befumniiiging ot tin forwards and their duelling play in the enabled the backs to show their paces and they gave a rcitlly brilliant display The ability to reproduce this form on the part of the forwards will be the vital factor in game They must heel the ball quickly and follow up any passing movement of their backs in order to counteract the extra man outside the scrum which is the strong feature of the New Zealand play No Seats Left New Zealand takes its rugger much more seriously than -t does its cricket Within a few minutes of the tickets being put on sale theie was none left and many enthusiasts who spent most of the night standing in a temperature below freezing point in the hoipc of getting a seat had to go away disapipointed Without doubt there will be a record crowd for a Rugby match in the Dominion THOSE IMAGINARY ILLNESSES ACTIVITY THE CURE FOR MENTAL TORTURE By a Doctor There are many people living to-day whose lives are made miserable through their fancied ailments Added to their mental sufferings in this connection is usually another the fear of contracting other illnesses in addition to the ones they are already supposed to possess Although their illness are imaginary and their fears grossly exaggerated sufferers from hypochondria are certainly ill and to a very grave extent though not in the uay they think Theirs is a mental affliction and like all abnormalities of this nature it is a very difficult one to combat What are the (symptoms of this disease (They will be well recognised on enumeration) Sufferers have a constant feeling of ill-health and yet on the most exhaustive search by doctors no sign of physical disease can be discovered The general appearance may be quite good and there is nothing in this to convey that the patient is ill Yet he or she lacks energy and power of concentration and finds it difficult to complete any task Kxaggerat-ed fear of catching cold or of chest or abdominal troubles is a very usual symptom of hypochondria Painful Obsession In fact the fear of acquiring any disease becomes a painful obsession The patient is always concerned about himself Peculiarities about clothing and food are prominent especially about food Kpecial diets are always being tried and probably none ever persevered with For a little while it may be vegetarian then mostly meat or it may be that abstinence is practised Or again special foods may lie the order of the day fruits vegetables and special bread all to be discarded in turn for tlie latest fad or fancy Continuous occupation is the keystone of treatment The days should le planned to have every available moment completely occupied in order that there is no time for introspection A life of the highest degree of activity should he led Active exercise is strongly indicated ns are all activities and once the mind is turned from one's ailments by occupation the cure is half completed The other half of the cure consists in keeping up this regime Belfast constables complain that their trousers are too long and aag over their loot in three or four folds Minister to Holland Antonio Mandeira was formerly Portuguese Minister to Holland while Hennies was the foreign agent for the bank established by the conspirators to put their false notes into circulation Hennies was sentenced in his absence Senhora Alves Reis wife of the principal conspirator was sentenced to 10 months' im-prisonment but was released at once as she had been long in gaol The case lor the prosecution was that these persons had by a forged order obtained Portuguese banknotes front the official' printers in Kitgland and had smuggled them into Portugal diplomatic bags with the aid of the then Portuguese Minister at The Hague As the notes were printed from official plates no one could tell that they were fraudulent notes unless it was realised that the series numbers had not been authorised by the Government Special Bank Founded The conspirators had established the Banca de Angola Metropole to put these notes into rapid circulation on a large scale and had tried to buy up shares ii the Bank of Portugal itself so that they might obtain control oi that bank and then obliterate all traces of their activities An inquiry was opened discreetly and the conspiracy then came to light It has been an easy matter for the conspirators to utter the notes in Madrid through the channels of their own
