INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION IN
CHINA.
In order to educate the young people of the country a number of so-called industrial schools have been opened in Tientsin during the last few years, where for a small fee students are, given a manual training. The leading one of these schools at present is the "Shi Hai, Kung Chang," which is under the direction of Kung -chil, the head of the trade and industrial The head master of this bureau of Ch school, is the former" salt tistai. of Tigatsin,"
Intimation.
CONFIDENCE anid Lord Chatham, is a plant of slow growth":"People believe in things that they 'see, and in a broad sense they are right." What is sometimes called blind faith is not faith at all. There must be reason and fact to
form a foundation for trust. In regard to a medicine or remedy, for example, people ask "Has it cured others? Have cases like mine
the truths of modern science, and has it a been relieved by it? Is it in harmony with
record above suspicion ? If so, it is worthy of confidence; and if I am ever attacked by any of the maladies for which it is commended shall resort to it in full belief in its power to help me On these lines •
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION has won its high reputation among medical men, and the people of all civilized countries. They trust it for the same reason that they trust in the familiar laws of naturo or in the action of common things. This effective remedy is palatable as honey and contains all the nutritive and curative properties of Pure Cod Liver Oil, extracted by us from fresh cod livers, combined with the Compound Syrup of Hypophosphites and the Extracts of Malt and Wild Cherry. It quickly eradicates the poisonous, disease-breeding acids and other toxic matters from the system; regulates and promoida-the normal action of the organs, gives vigomus appetite and digestion, and is infallible in Prostration-following Fevers, Anenia, Scrofula, Influenza, Wasting Diseases, Throat and Lung Troubles, etc. Dr. W. A. Young, of Canada, says: "Your tasteless pre- paration of cod liver oil has given me uniformly satisfactory results, my patients having been of all ages. It is a product of the skill and science of to-day and is successful after the old style modes of treatment have 'been appealed to in vain.. To try it is to trust to it forever after. It cannot disappoint you and is effective from the first dose. Sold by chemists everywhere,
