THE GRAVITY OF SORE THROAT.
Although sore throat seems so simple in itself, it may lead to such serious con- be nevèr it sboald sequences that neglected, but should always be treated promptly.
When this is done, there is every chance that any infections disease-such as sear let fever, diphtheria, measles, mumps, ete, all of which begin with sore throat, will be effectually prevented. If however, the sore throat ie neglected, the disease will have time to establish itself in the systeto, and be much more difficult to
cure.

EASTERN ART IN THE BRITISH MUSEUM. „The collection of Japanese and Chinese paintings and screens formed by Mr. Arthur Morrison, which, through the signal generosity and public spirit of a benefactor of the British Museum, is to become the property of the nation, is probably the most important and repre-specially mentioned. sentative of its kind in Europe. It has been made during a period of 20 years by one who is admittedly among the first authorities living on the subject, and it is well known to students, both European Planned on historical and Japa lines, with a view to exemplifying the styles of all the various schools, so far as possible, it contains between 800 and 700 cxamples. It is now over 20 years since the Museum acquired the collection of the Anderson, whose late Dr. Williata catalogue, published by the Trustees of the Museum in 1880, was a pioneer work, rich in information of the greatest value Since the for all subsequent workers.

The sub-department by which it is enriched will, with the Print Room: collections, shortly be moved to ampler quarters in the new north wing of the Museum, now approaching completion, In the new gallery on the upper floor of the building it is proposed to have a permanent exhibition of Oriental paint- ings and prints, and doubtless the series of these exhibitions will open with a display of the chief treasures of the Morrison collection, so happily secured for the nation-The Times.

At the beginning of 1911 a project was drawn up for building at Shkotovo, on the Ussuri Bay, some 30 miles from. Vladivostok, a cement factory to be in private hands and to have a guaranteed annual sale for 15 years to the Govern ment of from 150,000 to 200,000 barrels at a price to be tendered for. Invitations to tender were sent to various firms and the adjudication was actually held, some reason the project was withdrawn.
