The long period required to gain increments in the junior classes and the smallness of the increments in the senior classes make these increments of little moment to clerks, A. man who has served about a year will scarcely take the prospective rise of $60 at the end of an- other your as an inducument to continue in the Service should any other employ. ment be offered to him. Later on aú average rise of 830 per annuta soems out of proportion to salaries of 32 to 70 times that amount. (2). The unsystematic variation in the periods taken to pass from the minimum. to the maximum salary in the various classes tends against the continuous promotion from class to class, which is an incentive to work. For instance, the fact that in the 7th. and oth. classes the maximum is attained in 4 years while in the 6th, and 4th, classes it is only attained in 6 and 1 years respective

This scheme starts from the same: minimum ($240) as the existing classifi cation scheme but goes to a slightly lower maximum ($2,040 in place of $2,100.) instead of biennial increments in the 3. It provides the encouragement of annual lower classes and while retaining the biennial increments in the upper classes: doubles the amount of them.
The maximum of caol class is soparated from the minimum salary of the class above it by the amount of one in- crement. The system offers to a young man with the necessary educational qualifi cations, who joins either of the lowest clas- throughout his career, Of course there will ees, the chance of fairly regular promotion be mang cases of a clerk when he has rea ched the max mum salary of his grade not being considered suitable for promotion to a higher one and being passed over by others of better qualifications when vacancies occur in the higher grade. This may tend to the disappointed man learing the Service, but it will be better to occasionally lose those men who have proved themselves unsuited for promotion than to have contantly to ac cept the resignations of the best of the junior- clerks.

For the efficiency of that Garri son and the defences they are to man we can reposo full confidence in the Genera! Officer Commanding. In any matter that the Colony can properly give assistance to ke him I am sure he can count on that assig ance. I may mention here that a porinan ent settlement of the difficult Military Land questions which have been under di- cuasion sinco the cession of Kowloon will I believe be arrived at very shortly, result largely due to the good work done by Mr May in the matter. While on Military subjecte, I will express my kp preciation of the support that is being given by the community to our Voluntee am vement and at the ame time I must
that it would effect a practical im- provement. The practical need for the me by was demonstrated to scheme the fact that before my arrived a scheme bad been submitted to the Secretary of State for a new system of salaries for the Post Office Staff, which differed not only from the system then in force but also from the Classification Schemo that had never been introduced into that office and that the ground for this submission were that higher inducements were necessary to retain the services of the junior men in the Post Offiso where more clerks wore employed than in any other of the Government Departments. My belief that the adoption of the scheme would effect a practios! improvement is based on the success which a similar one bad met with on the Gold Coast, where frequent changes in the Subordinate Staff were chocked by the introduction o logical and consecutive scale of alaries. The Secretary of State has loft to my discretion, the extension of the scheme, which now first appears in the estimates, as convenient opportunities ocour for applying it to Various Departments or in particular appointments. An extension of it wh ch will introduce a logical basis into the oheme of st rling salaries is engaging my attention.

Then my breath was impure and wing rising from my stomach made a most foul un- pleasant taste in my mouth. I tried many inedicines, but only when I began using Mother Seigel's Syrup did I find any relief. I con- tinued using the Syrup and four bottles of it did more for me than all the money that had been spent on doctors and other medicines.
