A Prepared Opium Divan of 2nd. Class (

which has been held by the present owner for about 6 years, The business is good though it has been falling off latterly. No books are kept except the "Opium Book" for dealing with the opium farmer. The profits shown are large, but the keeper is himself a heavy smoker and is said to smoke about $15.00 a

month himself. He has 5 sons and 4 daughters and 2 of the sons are at Queen's College. The rent is small only being $14.00 a

month. The business used to be better than it is. the stock of

pipes tend to corroborate this.

Capital estimated at $460 including:-

(Original capital said to

be $640.)
