One of the most valuable foods known to the Medical Profession.-"The Lancet" describes it as "Mr. Benger's admirable preparation."

Benger's Food is distinguished from the others by the ease with which it can be digested and absorbed.. BENGER'S FOOD is FOR INFANTS AND INVALIDS, and all whose digestive powers have become weakened through illness or advancing age.

Mr Fedley is a milsionary who has span ten years or more in China, speaks the langungo fuently, and is remarkably froe from the prejudicos and conventions which, while they may make a good missionary, are apt to spoil any narrative of travel. It is a pity that he has chosen a title for his unpretentious yet interesting book which is at once trits and insceurata. It is true that Mengulis is, both geographically and from the Christian point of view, ens of the lanat illuminated parts of Asia, but, as a antter of fact, the province of Chibli, to which (with two brief excursions) Mr Hodley's "Tramps" wore confined, is, for the most part, dotted crer with mission stations of half a dozen denamiantions.

The most interesting part of Mx Iledley'- hook, for the general reader, is that in which he recounts his experiences of

The committee also consider that samen from the Eastern Colonies should be given certificates to prove their origin, and that native seamen signing on in the West Indies should be given special certificates showing the place to which they belong, so that, should occasion arise, repatriation to the proper Colony may be effected without difficulty..

Another suggestion is that notices should be exhibited in the shipping offices of the poma of the dominious warning seamen chat, if they sign on for a voyage terminat- ing in the United Kingdom, they may experience difficulty in finding a ship for the return voyage..

He knew the people in their habit as they lived ; worked, suffered, and died in the effort to Christianise the zace which is living under the baleful cloud Mongellamaism. Yet he never baptised a single Mongol couvert. It is no discredit gps the readem to Mr Hadley to say that as he and his attention from start in sala-ring companions spoke only Chinese, they got mainly the Chinese view of the Mongol; nor is the dweller in towns as interesting service outside their limits, and that it should be made unlawful for natives to spectacular por- purpose formances unless provision is made for repatriating them.
