WRITES A RACEST VIRITO TO MALAYA" in the Westminster Gazetta, The Gover- ment of the F.M.S, is in far pleasanter position. It started on what was practical ly virgin soil, not worn out by mis-govern ment for hundreds of years. The rulers had a dead. siste, the land being already tho, sbsolute property of the various Rajahs, or Sultans, with all "the,,sad experience of India at their back, and it is most interesing for an old Indian official to watch the result so far. Unfortunately I have con very little of their towns, (all of which, ought, of course, to bo Gantos Cities, perfectly planned from the beginning with broad roads and arennes; but from the little I have seen of aven the smaller towns I am afraid they aru by no means ideal, or oven up to the very modest standard of Letchworth Klang is a typical example of how a now { town ought not to be laid out. Still, from
this increly material point of view it must be admitted that a good beginning has been ado towards covering the country, with network of real pucka" roads fit for any kind of traffic. Some of them over the Ghauts are no doubt too narrow, but the gradients are generally good and, as motors increase, they can easily be widened. The country is also fairly well supplied with up-to date railways, and will be abundantly supplied in time

As soon as posside I consulted medical man on shore anul when at era faithfully took the wedicines they prescrib ed, hut daily I drifted from bad to worse until I lost the me at my legs and was
COMPELLED TO RESION,
The Cunard Company was very kind and allowed many indulgences, but a 'tima passed the rheumatism became so pronoune ed that I could not help ingvelt, and gave the idea of ever going back to sea again. My toes and Bugera became contracted, my flesh puffed up, my skin was very sore to the touch, and I endured terribia agonies from my spine which at every miavoment sent a lightning like pain through my brain. My nervous system broke down, I became a perfect martyr to neuralgia, and at times also suffered the tortures of scistien.
I WROTE TO THE LADY
"I was practically confirmed invalid when hope was ravived by a newspaper article which I read dosoribing how a lady- suffering with rheumatism had been cured by Dr. Williams' pink pills. and found that her case was eprzectly reported, and thus inspired with confidence
