After a heated debate, the High Com missioner (Lord Milner) undertook to bring about the necessary railway reforms. Ho paid an eloquent tribute to Sir Percy Girouard for converting the railway system, which the war had left a mere wrock, into a genuine working machine."

The indictment under this head of the British merchants of Hongkong by the of ficers mentioned is a severe one, but ap- parently truthful. Our own interest in it lios in the fact that some of our ports, such As San Francisco, New York, Bosten and other large cities, receive ships and goods. from Hongkong. With thom at any time we might receive the gorm that would start an epidemic of one of the worst. scourges of mankind, the bubonic plague. We are forced to observe in the premises That it is not the heathen Chinese, but his white brother, who is responsible for the umanitary condition of Hongkong.

TUME is money.
TH
If you are a victim of liver complaint you are unfit for work and you are losing money in more ways than one, for you cannot earn as much as if you were in good health, and you may waste much money on drugs and medicines without receiving any real benefit. You can now avoid all this loss by the use of Chas.

Shoals of testimonials are coming in every day from persons who have been rescued from-death, or from a living agony worse than death, by the curative power of Bile Beans. One of the latest of those testimoniale comes from Mr John McHenry, a minor, of Cemetery Road, Leabrooks, near Alfreton, England, who says :-'I am a miner and many a time have had to throw down my pick and shovel and come home. When I felt attacks of sickness coming over me I know it was no use to try and work them off. For years 1 suffered from liver com- plaint. At times a foeling came over me as if there were a load on my stomach. I used ti feel the sensations getting gradually worse until I got sick and had diarrhoea. This would mean a ny or two off work. The attack would pass off and I should be able to work again for a short time, but sooner or later another bout would come upon me. The sickness and diarrhoea were accompanied by pains in the side and an all -round feeling of weakness and depros- sion. How long this would have continued I don't know, had I not tried Bile Beans,

I got to know of a case very similar to my own in which Bile Beans had brought about a cure, so I decided to try them. After a short course the bouts became less trouble- some. This was satisfactory so I continued with the Benna. At at the stacks of sickness and liver complaint ceased alto- gether. For nearly a year now I have been entirely free, so it is evident Bile Beans have now cured me completely. You may make my case fully known, for I would like others to know the benefits Bile Beans .can be tow.
File Benna cure biliousness, piles, indi- gestion, liver complaints, anaemia female ailments, debility, palpitation, pains in tho back, constipation, loss of appetite, head- ache, flatulence, pimples, skin eruptions, and all other maladies arising from disorder of the liver and digestive organs.
Bile Beans are purely vegetable in com- position, and are a certain cure for in- digestion, biliousness, constipation, piles, anemia, debility female ailmente, skin, eruptions, all liver ailments, and all dis- orders arising from defective bile flow and assimilation.

The extraordinary general meeting of the Punjom Mining Company, postponed from Joly 12, was held to-day at 11 a.m. in the offices of the Company, Beaconsfield Arcade.

The Attorney General stated that the defendant was a building contractor, and the officer, to whom the bribe was alleged to have been offered, was Sanitary Inspec tor McEwen. The defendant had a con- tract to limewash a certain number of hoses in Kennedytown.

The defendant thereupon asked the Inspector not to report it, but to overlook the defective work, and intimated that he would make him a presont. The Iuspector rebuked the contractor, but the Intter did not take the rebuke seriously and placed on the table a roll of banknotes for the Inspector's acceptance. Again the defendant asked the Inspector not to report the defective work. The Inspector took the money and at the same time took the defendant into custody. The Inspector handed the defondant and the money over to the police. The Inspector did not count the money, but gave the roll of notes to the police, at the same time charging the defendant with offering him a bribe. There was no corroboration of the Inspector's story. The jury would, however, see his demeanour in the box, and hear what he had to say. Then they would accept his statement or not as they believed fit. The defendant, when charged, did not deny the Inspector's allegation, but stated that he had no wish to say anything at that time.

THE NEW FRENCH REMEDY
TRADE
THERAPION
This successful and highly popular remedy, as emplayed in the Continental Hospitals by Ricord, Rustan, Jobert, Velpeau, and others, combines all the desiderata to be sought in a medicine of the kind and surpasses everything hitherto employed.
THERAPION NĚ. 1
in a remarkably short time, on a few days only, removes all discharges from the urinary organs, superseding injections, the use of which does irres parable harm by laying the foundation of stricture and other serious diseases.
THERAPION No. 2
for impurity of the blood, scurvy, pimples, spots, blotches, pains and swelling of the joints, secon dary symptoms, gout, rheumatism, and all diseasen for which it has been too much a fashion to em- ploy mercury, sarsaparilla, &c., to the destruction of sufferers' teeth and ruin of health. This pre- paration purifies the whole system through the blood, and thoroughly eliminates every poisonous matter from the body.
THERAPION No. 3
fornervous exhaustion, impaired vitality, sleepless- Bess, and all the distressing consequences of early error, excess, residence in hot, unhealthy climates, &c. It possesses surprising power in restoring strength and vigour to the debilitated.
