THE STATE OF TRADE,

As we approach the month of December official and unofficial estimates of the probable dividends of the numerous joint steak com panies in this country are being circulated. Roughly speaking, the same sa last year are predicted, and the expectation gets to be justified by the state of trade generally and the favourable reports received from the majority of the industrial. establishments, the cotton splaning industry being almost the only er ception. Although there is an improvement noticeable there, too, complaints of the un remunerative prices of yners and goods are etil numerone. The constant erection of now mills, and the extension of old ones must be held responsible for this in very great measure, for the production of yarns and gooda has exceeded the requirements of the world, necesitating the adoption of" short "ve" everywhere, whilst the supply of the raw material has proved insuficient for even the reduced consumption. Prices have rison in con sequence and speculatore, with a froor apprecia... tion of the facts, than spinners, bare exploited the situation. Spinners have therefore had to pay high prices for their cotton without being ablo to obtain a proportionsts advance for their yarns owing to general over-production. Mat- lers are improving, however, particularly in Lancashire, where a brisk business seems to have been doing for a considerable fino now.

THE WOOLLEN TRADE,

$

The woollen trade has been in a far more. favourable position in spite the steady riso in prices owing to the shortares of supplies; but then there has not boon the ssmo ineresso in the spinsing plaat as la cotton. With regard to the supply of wool during the ensuing season the recent report of the German Consal-Cezorul in Buenos Ayzes dated September 20th on the yield of the last clip in Argontiss is of some interest. He states that the total in estimated at 186,800 tone, or about 20 per cent, less than that of the year before, owing to su epidemic amongst the sheep and the annal lightness of the fleeces. An analysis of the estimate shows.-

On the other hand, it has increased in the south- ern parts of Argentina. It is expected that

SANATOG

SCUP OF F

HEALTH

Ε

VERY age of life in Shakespeare's immortal "Seven Ages" is prone to diseases which under mine the nervous system and deplete the vitality.

Sauatogen, the world-renowned re- vitaliser, is the remedy of remedies to overcome these disabilities and restore to the normal any incorrect action of the bodily functions.

For Wasting.

In the disorders of "The Infant,"

***00 as much Sanatogen as will go. the point of a knife," as Beatrice says: in Much Ado, will overcoute the re- tarding influence of disease and enable the little one to develop into a robust "School Boy with shining morning face," when a teaspoonful with each meal will make and keep him strong and healthy.

When, like "The Lover" and "The Soldier," he is fighting for his position in the world, and is liable to be struck down by nervous and wasting disease, draughts from the Cup of Health* enable him to continue the fight with unimpaired vigour.

For Nervous Breakdown. The years take him into the condi tion of "The Justice," and he prefers a sedentary to an active life-then Sanatogen is equally efficacious in maintaining that equilibrium which physicians call health.

As age advances, and through the gradual disintegration of the tissues, he becomes the "lean and slippered Pantaloon," Sanatogen staves off the ravages of time, while in the "Last Scene" of extreine old age it feeds the flickering flame and prolongs life as nothing else has ever done.

On the subject of dividends mentioned above [719 I wish to add a few remarks on the heavy tax for benevolent purposes borne by the great industrial establishments in Germany. appears, for instance, that the "Taurahütte, which has been in the habit of distributing on annual dividend of between 5 and 6 per cent, contributes a similar amount every year to the imperial insurance funds to the communal and its own benevolent institutions, so that tho work aen participate to the same extent collectively. if not individually, in the profits made, as the

JANATOGEN is a white powder, a chemical compound of glycero- phosphate of sodium, the active principle of the nervous system, with milk proteid, the chief body-building food which, when mixed with water, milk, or other liquid, becomes the veritable Cup of Health and Heal- ing"

#

In all forms of nervous discases with their trains of alarming symp. toms, like loss of memory, depression of spirits, lassitude, insomnia, etc., it rapidly restores the tissue which has been lost.

King Edward VII's

Physician,

Dr. Ott, Marienbad, praises Sanatogen very highly, and says: I have been using Sanatogen for a number of years in my practice with excellent restilts. These results have been notably good in cases of elderly people when it was desirable to build up the strength and stimulate the bodily functions."

The Hon.

Mr. Justice Robertson -Judge Chief Court, Lahore, writes: **My experience so far with Sanatogen has been very favourable. I took it for some weeks during the most trying season of the year –June, July, August In Lahore and the Punjab plains, and found it a great strengthener."

Sanatogen may be obtained of all chemists and bazena. An interesting booklet, "How to Keep Well in Tropical Climates," will be sent post free, on application, to all mentioning this paper.
