The last five your of the decade, overally and collectively, also show an increase on the trat five, the conclusion Being that the trade of Hoihow in foreign vessels (which, Hoihow being the only open Hainan) is steadily increasing, the fluctuations from year to year being merely the undulations in its onward progress. The trade during 1902 was abnormally great, and that of 1903 may be said to have held its place as an average

There would however, seem to be a relation between the saving of money on rice and the purchase of a Frater quantity of cotten goods, the two articles varying together in a remarkable mzbner. Put simply, it may be said that if failure of the rice crops obliges the native to buy his rice abroad instead of growing it at home. he will not inlulge in a new cotton garment, but will postpone the purchase of it to less hard times. Native inports, chiefly from other southern ports, rose from £431 in 1902 to 14,484 in 1903, which is £5,386 more than in 1901.

The Island of Hainan being to a large extent the feeder of the markets of Hongkong and Canton, most of the trade is transacted with those taro places, that for Canton passing through Hongkong. The import from that colony in 1903 were valued at £318,404 (being less by £64,142 than in 1902), and the exports to it from Heihow at 251,184 (being less by £26,6 than in 1902), the total valus of the trade boing thus loss by £90,478.

up

With every movement of the human body certain amount of waste or loss is incurrad. In the case of young, or middle-aged persons, the blood soon makes good that loss, and builds what has been used during sotivity, in the following period of rest. In growing people, the blood not only makes good what has been wasted, but adds a little mero material each time, until the limbs and body reach their waxinum size. But with old people it is different, for with tham the blood fails to make good the entire loss, and so, little by little, the human frame enters the period of decay. The reason is that the blood does not contain sufi. oient nourishment to supply the waste tiempos. If, therefore, you would delay decay, see that you feed your blood properly. This you can do by taking a good nourishing beverage, and one of the beat for that purpose is Van Honton's Coons. It is paro, soluble, and easily digested.. It contains just the very nourishment which the blood requires for its work: the albumen which nourishes the body, and the phosphates which build up

the bones and tissues. Van Houten's Cocoa is cheap, because a little goes a long way: it is handy, because it is easily and rapidly made ready and “Once used always used.” (Advt.]
