· FÖUNDED IN HONOUR. No doubt you have seen in the papers such Announcements as this-concerning some medicina or other :-" If, on trial, you write that this medicine has done you no good we will refand your money.”—Now, we have never had reason to speak in that way concerning the ramedy named in this article. In a trade extending throughout the world, nobody has ever complained that our medicine has failed, or asked for the return of his money. The public never grumbles at honestly and skillfully made bread, or at a medicine which really and actually does what it was made to do. The foundations of
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION are lald in sincerity and honour, the knowledge of which on the part of the people explains its popularity and success. There is nothing to disguise.or conceal.

A NEW METROPOLIS.
London is intensely full of interest to one who has seturded to it after a long abience. It is a new city. It may not seem so to those who have watched its gradual changes. To me it is a strange place, and grown much more beautiful and not only has it grown much more beautiful, bu' Immensely more active, and this serms to me to apply especially to the suburbs of London. What were, in my time, semi-rural districts like Putney are now a part of the great city, with their motor-ompibutes and their intensely packed pavements. sen, then half suburb, h.If village, is now a flourishing city, with magnificent buildings. The great new shopping centres of the suburbs and their general vivacity have surprised me as much as anything I have seen since my ṛgleuse, What seems very little changed is the City itself, with its endless tide of pedestrian and vehicular traffic. The use of indiar.bber tyres on the cab wheels struck me greatly.

What yet it is only twelve years ago.

employment of women in offices I was not a little gratified.
