A WEEK'S PAPERS IN ONE.
OVERLAND
CHINA
SPECIAL COLOURED SUPPLEMENT with PICTURES of all local events
is given free in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.
CHINA NEWS, LOCAL NEWS
and all the NEWS.
The Weekly paper that saves you the trouble of writing Home.
Stirring events in China this week have once more attract- ed the attention of the Government, the public and the Press of Britain. Hong Kong has come in for its share of the lime- light, enviable or otherwise. The problem of the Colony's mui tsais has been openly discussed and, it is significant, at a time when reforms contemplated by the Colonial legislature were announced.
At no other time is news from Hong Kong so welcome at Home. We make a special appeal to those gradually returning from leave. Folks in the Old Country like to know what is going on and, we submit, the easiest and most comprehensive way to tell them is to send them the "Overland China Mail," the only weekly budget of news published in Hong Kong carrying a free coloured Picture Supplement.
In acklition to the political and military, events in China -portending, as they do, another civil war on a wide scale there have been riots in Peking and the piracy of a British steamer on the Yangtze River. That vessel formerly bore the White Ensign in a gallant fight in which the Royal Navy dis- tinguished itself at Wanhsien. -You-will-read-all-about-this- epic in the "Overland."
The Colony itself has had a busy time, socially and in other respects. Nelson Day was duly observed. There have been marriages and obituaries. Millionaire estates have been dealt with. A gentleınan crook" has been exposed. The Criminal Session has been full of interest. And the Colony has reverted to the silver dollar as the basis of its currency. All this provides abundant food for thought. Everything is apily "covered" by the "Overland," which constitutes very fine reading matter this week.
Letters to ratatives and friends | whatsoever in Hong Kong, and in other parts of the world many letters testify to the keen frequently fail to be written pleasure and interest its weekly
arrival brings.
even
the
ardent correspondents, It is a kindly thought, therefore, to ensure that those away from the Colony, or folks at Home, should have an. unfailing supply of Hong Kong and China news overy week-by means of a wubacription to the "Overland Ching Mall
For your folks at Home to re- yourself posted with affairs during ceive this weekly budget, or to keep 'your absence, all that you have to do is to drop a chit to the "Over. land China Mail."
The word "Overland" in a re- winder of the experience behind the production, it haping been published since the early days of Without any trouble of packing the Colony, to be sent OVER and worrying about the Post Office LAND because there was no Sues on your part, and at a ono-and- Canal, and that was the quickest only cost of H.K.43.76 for months, the "Overland China Sfail" route by which to get mull Home, Bfail" In the march of times the "Over- will be sent Home for you every land China Mall" has become the week, catching the mail regularly. only weekly news budget which
