Its semi- rained walls extended seven miles round the place and were pierced by eight gates.

How to Stop a Cough.
A simple but effective remedy is the fol- lowing:
Breathing through the nostrils, infiale a full breath as glowly as is possibly wi hout causing fatigue. Expel the breath in the samo inanner and repeat the operation ten times. This will stop the coughing for ab out a quarter of an hour. Take a dose of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy during this Tull and the medicino will have a better op- portunity to act and will speedily effect a complete cure. It always cures and cures quickly.

A limited number of revolving cases has been sent from London especially for subscribers in China.

Note: The foregoing prices can apply only to the first impression of the New Volumes which The Times has prepared in order to bring the original 24 volutues of the Encyclopaedia Britannica up to date. An extraordinary demand for the Sup plement has made it possible to offer the 35 volumes for considerably less than the prices at which they can be sold hereafter. More than 30,000 persons at home who already possessed the early volumes have subscribed for the supplement, almost all of them in advance of its publication, so that The Times' was enabled to make one consecutive run on the presses, and thereby to effect a large reduction in manufactur ing cost. Subscribers in China are for the moment, on exactly the same footing as subscribers in England, but orders should be registered promptly, as it will not be possible to guarantee indefinitely the acceptance of orders in China at the London prices with the additional concession of free carriage from London to Shanghai anu Hongkong.

Hongkong Tides. The tide table given below has been compiled at the Nautical Almanac Office in London from the result of the analysis of observations taken by means of an au- tomatic tide-recording machine in the Wa- ter Police Basin at Tsim Sha Tsui during
the years 1887-8-9,
The zero of the table corresponds with the zero of the soundings in the Admiralty Charts which has been found to be 4 feet
3 inches below mean sea level.
To obtain the depth of water on the tide gauge at the Victoria Naval Yard add 3 feet 4 inches, and on the gauge at Lamont Dock, Aberdeen, add 10 feet 6 inches to the height given in the table.
