How much truth there is in those, state- If the ments it is impossible to say. Committee took up this attitude against Messrs Samuel Samuel & Co., it is surpris-had in the Bay. ing that no report appeared of the proceed- ings at the time, and some doubt may be felt as to the accuracy of a report which has been kept secret for so many weeks.

He also used out- ward applications but without effect. At last in his extremity Dr Williams' pink pills were tried, and he soon found that at last he had something which touched the seat of Before his pain, and gave him relief. finishing the first box ho was considerably better. Before the third was empty the pain had gone, and he was able to report himself as completely cured. The pills are not purgative, but on the contrary, strongthi- ening. The third box was finished by his wife, who was then suffering from severe headache, and who thought that what removed pain in one part of the body might also eradicate it in another. She was right: the pills gave her complete relief. Mr Death is an active man of thirty-eight years of age, and has since what he regards as his wonderful recovery, had no recurrence of his trouble, and is as strong and vigerous

This straightforward and manly testimony was unhesitatingly given, with the full knowledge that it would be published to the world So many people have found in Dr Williams pink pills for pale people a cure for rheumatism, sciatica, paralysis, the ailments that especially afflict ladies, anemia, kidney disease, and skin ocup rious, that the roll of those who bear cheer. ful testimony to the merits of the genuine pills, and who never fail to warn the public

The ceremony will take place at Union Church, Hongkong, on Wednesday, the 1uth inst., at noon. Greene is herself a popular member of the Baptist Mission, and has worked alone for some time at Shiu-hing on the West River. Sho came to China when quite young, and so easily acquired the language and was op pointed as a regular missionary about five years ago. Her father, Dr Greene, was a prominent educator in his nativa State, and came to China some ten years ago to engage in theological training work. Mr Moore is in the Hongkong Civil Service.

TROUBLE ABOUT A DOG.
Pedro Nolasco Sequira, of No. 32 Elgin Street, Victoria, proceeded against Felix Lorris, of Robinson Road, Victoria, for the return of a brown pointer dog, or in the alternative the payment of $200 damages.
Mr F. X. D'Almada appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr E. J. Grist (of Messrs Wilkinson and Grist) for defendant,
Mr D'Almada stated that the dog, the subject of the action, belonged to Mr Ehmer, who was formerly in Mess Meyer and Co., where plaintiff was assistant. Al Ehmer subsequently left the firm and joined Messrs Grossman and Co., but before doing so plaintiff asked him to give him the dog Mr Ehmer promised that he would give plaintiff the dog before he left the Colony. Sometime in December last Mr Ehmer sent for the plaintiff and told him that he was about to go home, and said I will give you this dog. Plaintiff thanked Mr Elmer, and suggested that he had better retain the dog until he went, so as to save any trouble

He agreed to that, and said that he would send the dog to plaintiff on the day that he left the Colony. On January 21, Mr Ehmer left Hongkong, and before he went he gave instructions to Mr Smith, the assistant at Messra Grossmnan & Co.'s, to send the dog to plaintid. Plaintiff sulase quently received the dog, and after keeping it for a few days it ran back to the office of Mesars Grossmann and Co. It was sent back
to plaintiff, and he took out a license for the dog and kept it for about a month, when it disappeared again. In April he found the dog, and in order that it might lose sight of Hongkong altogether sent it to a friend of
