Two facts stand out with perfect clear ness in these cases. The first is that red meat of all kinds should be absolutely ruled out of the dict scheme, a being very much too stimulating for the nervous Bystorm.

OPIUM... Lately there has been a crusade against opium and steps are being taken to stop opium smoking, which has been more in evidence than ever since the dawn of the how party in Canton. The Anti-Opium Bureau has long been established, but The second is that from the remaining inside and outside the city there has been list of foods those should be selected which are bland in their nature and easily no sign of a decrease either in the number digestible. Pre-eminent among them are of shops where prepared opium can be mik products, and supreme among milk bought or in the number of people products is Sanatogen. It is composed of

It thus play a double part, each of which reinforces the other, so that the result never fails to be, in the bighest degree, beneficial. Indeed, in proportion to the lassitude from which nervous people always suffer in the tropics, is the sense of mental exhilara tion and physical well-being which the regular use of Sanatogen ensurió.

What it is capable of doing is strikingly shown by what it did in the case of Madame Sarah Grand, the distinguished English novelist, who writes:-"Sanatogen has done everything for me which it is Baid to be able to do for cases of nervous debility and exhaustion. I began to take it three times a day after nearly four years' enforced idleness from extrame debility, and now (after only four months) I find myself able to enjoy both work and

A rather long proclamation has been issued regarding the disarming and dis- banding of the unnecessary soldiers. It states that now that matters have become more settled so many soldiers are not required, and calls upon all to obey following four edicts.

(1.)-All chief officers in any regiment will receive commissions and medals for their service, and they will be kept in employment at their usual monthly salary.

(4.) All disbanded soldiers are re- quested to remember that they aro civilized citizens of a civilized country and are to refrain from any acts of violence; while they are to mobilise again at any time the authorities think necessary. In the light of Western thought and experi -ence this does not seem to be a workable scheme, but it is a great advance for China The one difficult question will be the mobilisation of a large army at any f future time, and it would be an impossible scheme for any other country except China not to have any sort of reserve that these men could be drafted into. It is significant that all officers of any stand- ing are being kept on the active list and they evidently expect to be able to whip The the men into order at any time. appeal to the men to behave themselves is a very necessary one, as many of them are disappointed both at the shortness of their campaign and the fact that they have not made anything out of their soldiering.
