BOVRIL ISN'T DEAR,
in fact, value for value, it is one of the, cheapest drinks and one of the most
more
conpical foods, that can be obtained. A cup of hot Bovril costs less than a drink of whisky, and while giving a genuine and Insting warmth than the latter, contains, in addition, the nutritive prin- ciples of beef worth many times its cost.
Old fashioned beef teas and meat ex- tracts, whether known as such, or disguised under moro prefentions modern names contain none of the NUTRITIVE pro- perties of beef. Baron Liebig himself admitted this fact; there is not a doctor to day disputes it. Used as a nourishment. Meat Extract is probably the most ex pensive article one can buy. Bovril one of the cheapest.

The King read his Speech. He said friendly. I rejoice that the Venezuelan settlement has been arrived at, justifying the closing of naval operatione,
The condition of the European provinces of Turkey causes serious anxiety.. I have used my best efforts to impress, on the Sultan and his ministers the urgent need of practical and well-considered reforms/ I trust that the Austrian and Russian, re- commendations will prove suffio,ent; and find it possible to give them my hosrty support...
I regret that the efforts to delinit, with Turkey, the tribal country round Aden, have hitherto failed to effect a settlement. Negociations are being urgently pressed.
Troops, including Corps from the Trans- vaal and the Orange River Colony, are about to advance from Obbia against the Mullah.

The opportunity of personal conference with Lord Milner and the representation: of all interests and opinions has greatly conduced to the adjustment of many difficulties and misunderstandinga,

I there received from the feudatory princes and chiefs, and from all classes in my Indian dominions, gratifying marks of loyalty and devotion to iny Throne and family.

The prospects of the agriculture and commerce of my In- dian Empire are more encouraging and satisfactory than for some years past, Al- though estimates have been framed with duo regard to economy, the needs of the country and the Empire make a large ex- penditure.

A cold canges a more abundant secretion of mucus, and when the lungs and bronchial tubes are inflamed, they are extremely sensitive to the irritation. Unless care is taken, the cold may result in pneumonia, which is swift and deadly. If the cold is a lingering one, the more leisurely but equally fatal consumption may set in.

Proibiting the Export of Rice.
The recent rapid rise in Shanghai of the price of rice has again been receiving the attention of the provincial anthorities at Soochow and Nanking, and the local mandarins, says the N.C. Daily News, have accordingly been warned that this is due to the unauthorised export from this port of the commodity. Several persons high in rank are suspected of 'rigging' the market through their agents, who then export the food stuff, thus bringing huge sums into
the pockets of their principals. In view of this the local mandarins have been ordered to issue proclamations prohibiting the ex port of rice on pain of confiscation.

Two British officers escorted the Russian officer as a prisoner to a Russian warship, where he was released. The garrison is intensely irritated at the incident, in view of the fact that the Russian officers were being treated by the British as distinguished.

HONGKONG C.C. v. THE NAVY.
The Chinese populace are much troubled concerning the many new taxes they are now being called upon to pay. Commodi ties that have never been taxed before (at "least within the memory of the oldest in. habitant) are now required to bring in grist to the mill of taxation. Articles as various as wine and sugars, cloth and coffins, lumber and earthenware, beans and beancake, pulse and soy, all of these, and many others, have to pay their share of the indemnity. Houses and shops, too, have a new tax

LAND COURT CASE,
Li Ki Tong, Merchant, 5, Glencaly Road, applied for leave to appeal against a decision of the Land Court in respect of the ownership of certain land in the New Territory at Tak Kong Hom, the decision of the Land Court having been against him.
Mr M. W. Slade, barrister-at-law (in- structed by Mr Wei On of Messrs Johnson, Stokes & Master, solicitors) appeared for the appellant.
Mr Slade in opening the case said that the grounds upon which the appeal was based wore that the appellant had no oppor tunity of being present before the Land Court while material witnesses in opposi tion to his claim were being examined. When the applicant applied for a copy of the evidence led on that occasion, he was told that it was not available.
His Lordship remarked that probably the appellant was a land speculator who made claims for a number of lots, took thankfully all he could get from the Land Court and appealed against a decision of the Court when it. was against him. A poor man had very little chance against

This desire of the Chinese to belong to some other nation other than their own in order to escape taxation and extortion is a marked feature of the pre- sent time. I am often asked how it may be possible to become British subjects, and my inevitable reply brings disappointment to the questioner, for they are surprised to find how difficult a thing it is to blossom into a subject of the British Empire. But Rimington..... our friends the Japs seem to make it as easy as possible, and in this province, at any rate, lots of Chinese families are en- rolling themselves as Japanese subjects, though I fancy many of those who say they are have failed to pass the necessary quali-
