PARLIAMENT AND THE SUNDAY

CLOSING QUESTION. -

In the course of the recent debates in the House of Commons on the Licensing Bill Mr. Asquith quoted the cases of Scotland and Wales, where there is complete Sunday closing, object lessons of its success. The law with regard to hotels and refreshment houses would remain, and persons who wanted food or a cup of teal" daring prohibited hours would have no difficulty. I am sure," said Mr. Asquith, looking at Mr. Rawlinson, "that the hon, meme ber who is a

Another case they might take was that of East Africa which had a high table land with a alimste more or less Africa, it could never be purely a white man's like that of the temperate zone. Like South

country, for it had a great indigenous coloured population. In East Africs they must simply wait and see whether the idant of a mainly white country was going to be realised. If it was, they must do nothing to thwart it.

Mr. Asquith: I can only say that I have done it befere now (laugher) when there has been no question of recognition. (Langhter).

Mr. Balfour: If you prevent a man from having his glass of beer in the public-house on Sunday are you not compelling him to store' whisky.?

The breeziest speech of the afternoon was made by Mr. Wiliam Johneen, the Labour member for Nuneaton. "I am not ons of-the temperance wolves, but I am going te support: this clause through thick and thin," He was, however, against prohibition. Any man who of attempts to stop me from having my glass beer at any hour on Sunday or any other time will have a difficult subject to deal with

INSTIGATING A BOYCOTT AT BANGKOK.

CHINESE AGITATORS AT WORK.

places about Bangkok, placards has been pasted On November 20, it was found that, in various up urging the Chiness of Bangkok to boyoitt Japanese gooila.

The Siam Observer" loams that several Chines, who are supposed to have been connect. ed with the recent boycott riots in Hongkong and who, it is said, fled from the British Colony to avoid treat, arrived in Bangkok a few days sins. These men are Cantoness and apparently they design to attempt to stir up trouble in Bangkok me they did in Hongkong.

Timmediately upon their arrival, they sought to purchase one of the Chinese newspapers published in Bangkok, but we are informed, adds our contemporary, that they were not accessin in carrying the negotiations through. How. ever, as the placards prove, they have succnded in getting their inflammatory literature printed. Those appeals to the Chinese are not only pasted

in i prominent positions but are also distri buted broadcast by hand and moreover are maid to have been pablished in a a local Chinese paper. These facts hare hean, we understand, com- municated to His Excellency the Japanese Minister. Unless, however, it he proven that Japanese trade is being adversely affected by the efforts of the agitators, it is unlikely that His Excellency will ask the Government to take action.

Following is

is a translation of the appealne Chinese nation, and it is well known therefore that a boycott is insisted on at Canton against Japanese goods. This prevails also at Hong- kong and Singapore, and even at Sydney.. Everywhere, the Chinese are boycotting Japanese goods Notwithstanding this boycott every." where, here in Bangkok only, the Chinese are callous like pigs or dogs. Japan being a strong Power the only means to make way against the country is by refusing to buy or sell its goods. Please bear this in mind."

At the same time it keeps the digestive organs in a healthy condition and acts as a tonic to the entire system. One day's trial will; convince you of its soothing, cough-allaying, lung-healing power.

Dear Sirs, I find Angier's Emulsion especi- ally 'valuable in chronic bronchitis, and I have no less than verpiarkastamisa,ats at present accompanied with asthma, the effect is very marked indeed. I have observed recently that the stomach can continue to take Angier's Emulsion almost indefinitely without any bad effects, hence I have had patients who were taking other emulsions abandon them in favour of yours. I know of no other preparation from which such excellent, permanent results have been obtained.
