Singapore has not had in the phát much stic. ceng in planting. The first to take up land for agricultoral purpose were the Chiesa who found that gambier and papper ware suitable to the soil, and the remains of their work are still apparent in the large patches of lallang.. found in all parts of the island. Once the Chinese abandoned the land, latlang appeared. It slayed, and seemed to be nourished by the Constant firas which made an end of cultivation and prevented the young jungle from making 1908. headway, Gambieriskes two years to produce and pepper about five years to begin its useful camer. After that the plants begin to show that they are past their prime and it seems a question when to abandon and to move on to better prospects. »»

THE TRUTH" ALWAYS.⠀ When you are in doubt tell the truth." was an experienced old diplomat who said this to a beginner in the work. It may pass in some things, but not in business. Fraud and decop- tion are often profitable so long as concealed yet detection is certain sopper or later; then comes the smash-up and the punishment. The best and safest way is to tell the truth all the tine. Thus you make friends that stick by you, and a reputation that is always worth twenty shillings to the pound everywhere your goods are offered for sale. We are able modestly to affirm, that it is on this basis that the world wide popularity of
WANPOLE'S PREPARATION rests, "The people have discovered that this medicine is exactly what it is said to be, and that it does what we have always declared it will do. Its nature also has been frankly made known. It 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 Syrop of llypophosphites and the Extracts of Malt and Wild Cherry. A combination of supremag excellence and medicinal merit. Nothing hat been so successful in Anemia, Scrofula, Bren chitis, Influenza, Loss of Flesh and Wasting Dircases, Weakness and Low Nervous Tone,
Dr. Austin D. Irvine, of Canada, says: "1 have used it in cases where cod liver oil was indicated but could not be taken by the patient, and the results following were very gratifying." It is effective from the first dose and agrees with the most sensitive and nervous stomachs. It cannot deceive or disappol as you, and comes to the rescue of those who have received no benefit from any other treatment: it stands for the medicinal triumphs of the age "Watch carefully against imilations," Sold by chemists throughout the world.

About six years "trok" to more profitable ground when the may be given as the useful" life of the pine, but a better demand in Europe of Chica or Japan would prevent it being neglected at too early stage. That the cultivation of gambier and of pine apples das a strong influence on the climate is generally believed, and it is passing strange that Government do not stop the denuding of the Lind of its treat, thereby lessening the rainfall and raising the tem perature of the atmosphere—and especially. near the town...
