In these schools only Chinese is taught, but in place of the old method of dinning long portions of abstruse: classica into the memory of the boys, without explanation of meaning, an attempt is being made to give a more simple course of instruction in the reading and writing of practical Chinese. Each, district has also one low and one high grade elementary school, with an average attendance of 50 -boye, who in addition to the study of their language, are started in history, geography, arithmetic, and simple science. A middle- 1376 school has been founded in each of the

to learning by heart rather than to compre-j hension. However, the most serious ten- denoy is a disregard for thoroughness, a desire to "rush" education, to rest con- a spirit tent with superficial results: bred by the same causes as his eager. ness for the new education. Many of the students have toiled through the classical course, and they are unwilling to settle down to another long period of study.

General Kondratenko died in Port Arthur, the little house, in which he luid lived during the siege was closed and sealed up. When the Japanese entered Port Arthur, their admiration of the "Hero of Port Was so sincere that they left his Arthur " house untouched; however, when the house trade of General was opened Inter, no Kondratenko's diary could be found. Quite recently, Madame Kondratenko, received the information from Japan that the diary of her late husband had been found in a cellar during the rebuilding of the little house in Port! Arthur. It is believed that the Japanese Government will restore the diary to the famous Russion General's widow, although, as far as is known at present, that lady has no intention of publishing her husband' interesting record of the siege of Port Arthur,

BILE BEANS EFFECT A CURE

ILE BEANS have once again demons- trated their superiority, over medical skill. An English Lady, Mrs Ann Maria Jeffs, at Frankley, Worcester, suffered so severely from constipation which doctors' failed to relieve, that she was regarded as incurable. Bile Beans, however, succeeded where all other remedies had failed, and Mrs Jeffa once more enjoys the blessings of good health. Speaking of her sufferings and cure, she says:-

For three years I suffered scutely from constipation, which brought on lassitude, and over-powering drowsiness. At times the pains I experienced after taking food were so bad that I actually fasted for three days, to avoid them. I was always dull and heavy, and suffered-from-headaches and awful depression.

A local doctor was. consulted, but I obtained no results from his medicines, and My condition continued to get worse. eventually became so critical that my hus band and friends thought my days were numbered.

'Nothing would stay on my stomach- not even a drop of beef tea or little boiled milk; and as no nourishment could be put In my system, I wasted away to a mere shadow.

My husband heard of Bile Beans, and 1 регве- as a last hope we got a supply. vered with them, and the fact that they were going to cure me soon became clear, Soon after beginning to take them I passed The passing of two great gall stones. these gave me great pain, but when the pain subsided my bowels became easier and the constipation let me altogether. Every week I go better, the ailments I had. suffered from disappeared, and in the end

I was completely restored to health.

I met my doctor while the cure was in He asked the cause of my im- progress. provement, and when I told him he said

If Bilo Boana have made this wonderful change in you, by all means continue them, Another day I was stopped by ou sminister, who, on hearing what had cured sue, said ・・・ The change is so wonderful: it is your duty to write to the Bile Bile Co. and thank them. Bile Beans are now our family medicine.

The above sensational case proves con clusively that, Bile Beans can cure the worst cases of stomach and intestinal dia order. They are equally effective for debility, billousness, constipation, piles, nervousness, ungems, fomalo ailments, weakness, pains in the back, aleeplessnÉGE, Joss of appetite, congestion of the liver, headache, flatulence, pimples, and skin eruptions.

bailing, touch of human hand, it is placed by machinery in sterilized bottles and packed in cases for shipment; thus, from its initial source protecting the water against possible tsint of any kind. Percolating through Heveral strata of virgin rock, it is saturated with their unsullied-mineral properties, and no chemical skill can duplicate the living Tanan any more then the laboratory can evidro a living tree.

FLAVOR, Tansan gladdens the painte with a zest peculiar to itself, clean, crisp, novel, and delicious. Its appetizing taste amaoks of satisfaction, without savor of a feeling of fulness, however freely indulged 10.

TANSAN is Nature's own distillation, and because of its absolute purity it blonds with spirits, wines, stout, milk, and other liquors without altering the natural flavor, except to unfold it.

STIMULUS. TADEU is refreshful, and, by reason of its native qualitica, it excites the appetite and stimulates the nutritive functiona. It is persistently regulative without being laxafive, and it eliminates from the problem of life the ailments attributable to the liver and kidneys.

The supply is inexhaustible, being an even flow, entirely independent of surface conditions of a wet or dry season, and there will never be necessity nor excuse for the artificial manufacture of Tansar, so that it will be forover free from the obnoxious aate peculiar to all "alted and fabricsted waters. Visitors to the Spring find the entire plant open to inspastion" there in nothing to conceal.
