The Indo-Chinese university in exis- tence since 1931 comprises a medicine faculty and law faculty.
The new institute will be attached to the Hanoi law faculty but will be placed under the patronage of the Paris law faculty and will undertake the special study of law and institu- tions in Asiatic countries.-Havas.

Are You Middle-Aged?
Forty is the age of greatest effort with most people.. Vitality is used up at a rapid pace. Often the struggle in work ог business produces strain, or the failure to succeed causes worry,
nervous breakdown, neuras-
thenia.
nerve
Middle-aged people find that they are not as active as in youth. The in- ternal organs also feel the effects of age. The diges- tion resents things that it ac- cepted before, the heart palpi- tates on slight exertion, the muscles of the back ache after a day's work. Your blood is thinner and not so bright a red as formerly.
Remember, when these things occur you need a tonic. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills suit most people's needs, because these pills are a true tonic, and they really build up the blood and streng- then the nerves. They are equally useful for growing children and for men and women whose nervous energy has been overdrawn. Obtainable at all chemists.
