SPECIAL COLOURED SUPPLEMENT with PICTURES of all local events
is given free in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.
CHINA NEWS, LOCAL NEWS
and all the NEWS.
The Weekly paper that saves you the trouble of writing Home,
Stirring events in China this week have once more attract- ed the attention of the Government, the public and the Press of Britain. Hong Kong has come in for its share of the lime- light, enviable or otherwise. The problem of the Colony's mui tsais has been openly discussed and, it is significant, at a time when reforms contemplated by the Colonial legislature were announced.
At no other time is news from Hong Kong to welcome at Home. We make a special appeal to those gradually returning. from leave. Folks in the Old Country like to know what is going on and, we subinit, the easiest and most comprehensive way to tell them is to send them the "Overland China Mail," the only weekly budget of news published in Hong Kong carrying a free coloured Picture Supplement.
In addition to the political and military events in China -portending. as they do, another civil war on a wide scale there have been riots in Peking and the piracy of a British steamer on the Yangtsze River. That vessel formerly bore the White Ensign in a gallant fight in which the Royal Navy dis- tinguished itself at Wanhsien. You will read all about this epic in the "Overland."
The Colony itself has had a busy time, socially and in other respects. Nelson Day was duly observed. There have been marriages and obituaries. Millionaire estates have been dealt with. A gentleman crook" has been exposed. The Criminal Session has been full of interest. And the Colony has reverted to the silver dollar as the basis of its currency, › All this provides abundant food for thought. Everything is aptly covered" by the "Overland," which constitutes very fine reading matter this week.
Letters to relatives and friends | whatsoever in Hong Kong, and world many letters testify to the keen pleasure and interest ite wookly arrival brings.

For your folks at Home to re- yourself posted with affairs during ceive this werkdly budget, or to keep your absence, all that you have to do is to drop a chit to the "Over land China Mail"
