of Treatment With
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills?
There are few ailments that cause more genuine misery than nervous, neuralgic, or sick headaches. Light and noise increase the pain: food is unthought of, for it only adds to the distress. When the attack is on there is little, to be done until it passes away. This may mean, hours, or it may mean days.. Near- ly every victim of headache suffers) from thin blood, also weak nerves, the latter being the result of the former. The most successful treat ment, therefore, for headaches is a remedy that will rebuild the blood so that it can nourish the starved nerves.
This process of strengthening thin blood and weak nerves is being accomplished on all sides by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale Peo- ple.. These pills contain the elements that make new blood; and as the nerves get their nourishment from the blood Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have been found invaluable in a wide range of diseases of. the blood and nerves, such as anaemia, digestive disorder, neuralgia, and heurasthenia or nervous break down.

Mr. R. A. D. Forrest.of the S. C. A., prosecuted and Mr. F. H. Loseby who appeared for the defendants, entered a plea of "not guilty."
Mr. Forrest stated that Nov. 14, one Chan Chi-sang ap- plied to the S.C.A. for permission to hold a procession in connection with the opening of the, Lo Pant Temple.

The application was refused and the applicant was advised not to hold the procession at all,
The police later reported that they had seen 4-procession and the names of ten persons were taken.
Mr. Loseby said that only forty-five people took part in the procession, and he offered; on be half of his clients, the fullest pos- sible prology and an expression of regret.
Mr. Lindsell imposed a fine of $50 on Choy Un, the social secre tary of the Carpenters' and Cón- trastors' Association, and $5 each on the others,
On a further plea of Mr. Loseby, Mr. Forrest said that he would, personally, be satisfied. with a smaller fine, and the Magistrate accordingly reduced the fine to $20.

"OVERLAND CHINA MAIL”
ILLUSTRATED.
CHINA NEWS, LOCAL NEWS AND ALL THE NEWS
SEND IT HOME!
Just at a time when most people were hoping for a revival in trade came the news that some Chinese in Western China, having engendered a boycott of things Japanese,, had intimidated stevedores info refraining from working a British ship's cargo. For once, immediate steps are being taken to prevent an impasse.
It is essential that British merchants in Hong Kong and China should do their duty to themselves by bringing quch facts Home to everybody at Home."
Only this week, there have been further instances of ignorance of the situation out here-as evidenced in the tacit approval of Mr. F. Hussey-Freke's acquiescing in Nationalist China's seizure of the Salt funds.
The "Overland. China Mail" contains an indictment of the Foreign Office policy.. Send it Home to be read as widely as possible. It is the only illustrated weekly budget of "local" and "China" news published in Hong Kong. As such, it must be the best reading matter for friends in other parts of the world who evince interest in China.
