It costs less to operate this electric clock than to keep an ordinary clock in repair, and you get Time-ball time always..
Many beautiful models of this Telechron are now en show and you are invited to inspect them-to-day. A Telechron will make a distinctive, and much appreciated present.

"Oh that 1 Yes! I didn't feel so well a few weeks ago. I felt pretty bad-nervous, no appetite and so on. But Sanatogen made a wonderful difference. In a few weeks time all the old energy came back. It's a glorious thing to be thoroughly healthy, in fact, it makes you feel young again."
Sanatogen infuses into the cells of blood and nerves exactly those elements-phos phorus and albumin-from which bodily health and nerve strength are derived. La the Medical Echo of Jan. 1926, a physicias describes how he tested Sanatogen on 5 medical students:
"In a fortnight their physical and mental antity increased by an overage of 23% Sonne of their comments on Sass-ogen være omwing such as: A red joy-killer brøsa-jogger

RAYON INDUSTRY IN JAPAN,
PRODUCTION AND EXPORTS
SHOW RAPID.
EXPANSION.
The development of the rayon industry of Japan has become more and more marked, and it is expect ed that the import of foreign-made rayon will be completely checked within the next few years.
The rayon industry for this year has made very satisfactory progress as compared with last year, with increasing trend of exports and pro- duction and decreasing trend of im- pozte. The Oaka Mainichi says it is estimated the total production

In the annual report of Lloyd's Register of Shipping, extracts from which were published in yesterday's issue, reference was made to the fact that cargo vessels are now re- quired to undertake voyages, in the ballast condition, of longer dura- tion and of greater speeds than has been customary hitherto. It used to be said
that the British | 9.83 Mercantile Marine was built up on the basis of outward cargoes of coal and homeward cargoes of foodstuffs and of raw material for manufac-1 ture, but a marked increase in ballast soyages has been noticeable in the freight markets within re cent years. To a considerable ex- tent this would seem to be a re- sult of the use of oil fuel, which has restricted the demand for coal overseas for bunkering, while the very large number of oil tank ves- sela which bring fuel to Great Bag. Britain have to proceed outwards $4.05

CANTON COTTON YARN.
A telegram was received by the Canton cotton yarn dealers from

other commodities. Eastern Canada is a signal exam- ple of a trade which was long one mainly of exports to Great Britain, but in which there has within recent years been a develop ment of British coal imports. Freights are naturally lowest when there, are both import and export cargoes available, and this is one reason why it should
