as PEPS. Thus, through the, medium of
Peps, we obtain literally..the benefits of the pinal forest in our own home.
A Peps tablet is simply allowed to dissolve on the tongue! when it liberates balsamic pine essences in the form of volatile] fumes. These breathed downl the lang-tubes straightway come. into contact with all the irritated lining membranes of the air- passages. You cannot possibly get at these tubes or other vital inner tissues of the chest and langs by swallowing cough mixtures, or other liquid medicine into the stomach,

"As a medicial man it seems to me that the value of this marvellous Peps remedy is two- fold. First it completely allays, the irritation and tickling-in other words-the sub-acute in- flammation of the lining mem brane of air-pipes and lungs and secondly, it kills and destroys the germs of disease itself. One can easily understand therefore, how an incipient cold or chill so treated can go no further. *

FOUR BRANCHES. The leading branches of Chin- ess art, Dr. Ferguson went on to explain, are bronzes, stones (including jades) calligraphy and painting. There are many other subjects such as porcelains, lac- quer. glassware, etc., which border on the artistic but are really the work of artisans rather than of artists. These four great branches which the Chinese speak of as Chin, Shih, Sbo, Hua, comprise the highest in the cul- tural development of China. In writing and painting the real soni of the nation has been disclosed.
Certain general characteristics: rus through all forms of Chinese art. These are restraint, sugges tion harmony, and seizing upon the permanent rather than the transient. With these were COM-
