The old style of cement bifocals with their disfiguring and annoying dividing line has been supplanted by a new leas with two foci, the upper portion of the glass for distance and the lower for reading, ground from one slagte piece of glass.
You who wear two pairs of glasses may now use one pair instead. No one can tell that you wear bifocals. Nocement to blister; no thin segments to lose off.

Port of. Whampoa, Situated de it ou the estuary f the Canton River, mach could. doubtless be nude fthe one-timo triving port of Whampoa ; but it is olap-trap to talk of Whampoa, ever replacing Hongkong as "ho shipping centre of the South." The loa does not oven proSD the merit of originality. In March, 1005, an American engiacer en deavoured to arrange for a deep- water port near Whampa as n terminus for tho Canton akow railway. Even at that time such a contingency had been foreseen. and the suggestion awakened the Government of this Colony to action which culminated in the construction of the long deferred Kowloon-Canton railway and the insertion of a clause in the Agree mant which positively, forbade, the linking up of Whampoa with Canton.This agreement was not reached without lengi hy negotiation and much obstruc- tion. But there it is and how anyone with a knowledge of these matters could possibly up- hold the rumour, that a Canton- Whampoa railway is to 10. constructed, unless for some suol motive as suggested, is past comprehension.

Relative Cost of Warships. With reference to Great Britain's superior economy in battleship building,welearn from "Engineer- ing," that opportunity for similar consideration of the relative cost of hatteships is afforded by thể figures given in the German Navy Estimates for the Kaisar and Frederick der Gross luunched in 1011, the former from an Imperial dockyard, and the latter from the works of a firm of contractxa with great experience of this class. of work, and also for the thro sinterships-the Kaiserin, tho Konig Albert, and the Prinz Regont Luitpold, recently launched from private works.

Chinese Benevolence.. So far, nt loost, as the Chine-o annmunity of Hongkong in con.. cerned, it is so seldom that one hears complaints of the in de equacy of Chinese bedevalenca when appeals are mado. to them for the support of some deserving institution for the benefit of their unfortunato countrymen that the note of disappointment sounded. by the Hon. Treasurer of the Alice Memorial and Affiliated Hospitala at the annual meet- ing of suberilers last week is all the more noteworthy. Mr. Lee Jones, commenting on the debit balanco of over $3,000," notwithstanding that expense+ had been reduced by over $3,000,- nl served that the subscriptions from the European population in the Colony came in very readily, but he was very much disip pointed, he said, that the Chinese. to whom this Hospital fforded such relief from suffering, did not respond in the way that both he and the Committes would have. liked them to. There are some excuses to be made, as the Hon. Treasurer recognised. There are many other calls upon the benevolence of the Chinese and, during the past two foal years, there have been may heavy special calle upon their generosity, The very large sums of money
