If the children present did not enjoy them- selves at the Kowloon Cricket Club on Monday, IL Mas not the fault of the sports committee, who left nothing undone that should have beon done to make the sports a success.

On my arrival hore I st once received the local ofEcials and geutry and made minute enquiries as to the causes of the disturbance and about the rint which followed the former.

Dan who understands well the Chiness language and usage writes us as follows con- eersing the proclamation issued by the Vieeray last Friday:This proclamation shows more than the usual amount of Chinese finesse. It is aptly worded, and tends to deceive, or what the Chinese understand as he bang, Face" is given to the Chinese, while the situation is misconstrued. For, perhaps, would think thore was anything wrong with the statement of the case made by the Vic-roy.

"I feel it my duty to tell you of two most wonderful cures of sore eyes by Cuticura Ointment. My little sou hed an attack of measles which left his eyes in a shocking state. The lids were in- famed and sore, and every lash fell out, They would be stuck in the morning, and bleed when washed, causing untold suffering to the child. I tried everything. recommended, but nothing did any good, Then I got Cutienra, and from the first application I have had cause to be thank- ful. Before I had used one box of Cuti- cura the lashes showed signs of growing, and at the end of a few months they were as healthy an ever. I recommended Cuti- cura to a Mrs. Phillips for her child who also had sore eyes, and the little one was cured with less than one box. (signed) Mrs. C. Todd, Old South Head Road, Waverly, Sydney, N.
