A WEEK'S PAPERS IN ONE.

OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

China affairs have now reached such a pass that interest

all over the world has been drawn this way. Even Members of Parliament have to seek information by putting questions. Much more so will the average relative, friend or business relation need enlightenment.

#

What better then than to sendi regularly a copy of the "Overland China Mail with the concise but complete record of the past week's events. Reports thus reproduced bear the distinction of being impartial-as Hong Kong is placed in a position different to that of interested parties

Whether recognition should be granted to the Nationalists

or not? That is the question everybody is asking. For full reports, comment, explanations, look to the "Overland."

It will save you the drudgery of writing long letters and

if kept on file will make a splendid reference.

All local news. China cables, reports by correspondents,. special articles are included for the week.

Among items of outstanding importance, attention is drawn to-daily news of Recognition problem; Mr. Miles Lampson's visit to Shanghai, en route to Hankow; Hankow troubles; opening stages of "Sunning" piracy trial; latest war movements and fall of Wuchow; visit of Macao's governor ; last Extrality report.
