THE IMPERIAL CABLE QUESTION.
Mr Henniker Heaton in an interview at "Colombo recently said that the question of the imperial cable and joining Ceylon with the Cocos Islands was at prosent in the hands of the Telegraphe Committee but the Committee did not seem very anxious to push it through, although it would be brought about eventually. They still hoped that the Government would acquire all the cables,
With regard to the recent reduction in cable charges between England and India and Ceylon, Mr Heaton said it was of course a step in the right direction, but ¿id not think the people of Indis and Ceylon should be satisfied with that. The rate should at least be reduced to a shilling. Personally he thought the rate should not be more than sixpence to India and Ceylon, and a elling-to-Australia.

THE RISING DOLLAR.
Efect on Trade.
The high rate of exchange which is now ruling and which apparently does not show any signs of falling is causing a considerable amount of comment in business circles. Trade all round is dull in the Colony, duller than it has been for some length of time, and in some quarters this slackness of trade is attributed to the high sterling value of the silver dollar. Although the dollar is now worth over 2/- the prices for 'foreign' goods still remains high in most of the houses dealing thore. with, while the salary of them of our

Several large English companies have been investigating conditions_in the United Stater, and branch offices will probably be opened there before the present scandals blow over. So great has been the feeling against-American insurance companies that the Equitable, New York Life, and the Mutual are re- ported as having done practically 10 business in England since the scandals came to light. Even the English com- panies have suffered from the general feeling of distrust, though of course, to nothing like the same extent as their American rivals. That the British life insurance companies. with their reputation for conservatism and economy, would be welcomed on the other side is clear from the fact that British fire insurance companies now hold a lion's share of the American business.

considerations of fashion and comfort. The enormous demand for fur which has con. sequently arison has resulted in the free.use of inferior or imitation furs. The intro duction of such furs is, in itself, a great benefit to many, but their very success puts a serious temptation in the way of the not too scrupulous seller, and means a cor- responding risk ip the uninitiated buyer, The various kinds of sealskin, for example, Į: resemble the real Alaska ekins so closely that it is easy to be misled in connection with what seems to be a low-priced coat of the real fur, but which is in resity an un- reasonably high-priced one of Electric or
Musquash.

are not yet exhausted is Squirrel. The delightful softness of this fur was appreciat

REVIVAL OF BEALSKIN.
(FORMERLY LI Woo & Co.),
No. 1, LEE YDEN STREET (WEST). Sealskin is this season enjoying a revival of CONTRACTORS & HOUSEBUILDERS. its former unrivalled popularity, and as a result made their appearance. These imita-
tions-apart from the drawbacks already referred to are well worthy of a welcome, for they differ almost imperceptibly from the real fur, while the difference in price is very appreciablo,
Of course it cannot be maintained that electric or musquash are over quite the game as the fine Alaska seal, and those who can afford to gratify their taste for the best will never hesitate between them. Furriers aro evidently of opinion this year that to ornament scalskin with some other fur is as superfluous as to 'gild refined gold,' and so the large collars and revers are general'y composed of the dusky fur itself.
