of impressing his will upon his subordinates. His telegrams to the Southern leaders setting forth the dangerous situation of the nation are calculated to exercise a good effect, and hopes of better- ment naturally rise again, only to be dampened somewhat by the telegraphed protest from Canton against the formation of a new Cabinet as likely to retard a settlement with the South. These futile objections are rather tire- some. An efficient administration in Peking not that the present. Government claims to be efficient is no more a barrier to peace than would be an inefficient one. If the Southerners are really anxious to see the nation reunited they will have to discard such frivilous objections and approach the problem in a liberal spirit.

Abbott, who came to China in the early part of this year to "lock over the situation. The amount mention- ed is $30.000.000. Discreet in- quiries elect that the report is not

`You will find it evidenced in the long list of Goodyear contribu- tions to the tyre business-contribu- tions in machines, à methods of manufacture, in factory and sales practice.

For the effort spent the en- deavours for improvement made, the scrupic exercised to make these tyres good, have had effect.
Goodyear Tvres really deliver great mileage at small cost.
