The negotiations for peace that have been earried on at Bukarest sino tho beginning of the month have terminated in the signing of a treaty by the Balkan States subject to the approval of the Great Powers. As to the prospects of business with thoss countries no very sanguine hopes are being entertained, for the purchasing power of the populations must be seriously impaired and it will require some time before an active domand for manufactured goods, however much they may be needed, can be expected. Much will depend upon the manner in! which, after the expiration of the mora toria granted by the respective" Govern- ments, buyers in those parts will meet their engagements contracted before and. during war whether promptly and honest- ly, thus showing that they are deserving of further eredit, or by pleading inabili ty, which in a great number of cases may be but to true, try to escape their liabili ties. Austria will no doubt suffer mout in that respect, tho, chief markets for her manufacture being the Balkan Sinter and the Near East. In one of my former letters I have already pointed out that, that outlet being closed, the Austrian industries. more particularly the textile ones, have been offering their production nt ruinous prices elsewhere; to what extent this has been done is illustrated by the fact that in spite of a reduction of the outturn of 25 to 30 per cent., 4,700 tons of cotton yarns, equal to the production

FORGERY OF CHINESE NOTES.

BY JAPANESE.

FORMER HIGH OFFICIAL COMMITTED

FOR TRIAL,

The ease in which certain Jagatiese in Hongkong were charged in December last with the forgery of Kwantung notes has undergone an interesting development, says the Japan Chronicle, owing to prosecution and examination by Procurn tor Ohara of Dr. Roga Renzo, LL.B., who was Director of the Poliés Bureau in the Home Olies under the late Saionji Government. It was announced on the gird August that Dr. Koga had been con mitted for trial.

gave it as his opinion that notes printed without numbers could not be described as paper money, and might be printed with impunity, but as the work was ordered by a foreign Government he advised Furukawa to report the matter to the Metropolitan Police. Among things seized as evidence, continues the Osaka journal, are name curds endorsed by Dr. Koga, and a megaorandum of the contract specifying his remuneration. There was also, the Mainichi states, a written state- met by Dr. Hausi stating that the printing of foreign paper currency in Japan does not constitute a crime at law, Dr. Hanai, however, who has been retained to defend Dr. Koga, disclaims all knowledge of this document. The minutes of the examination in the ease are said to be voluminous and the case itself is very complicated. The paper money in the case was printed by Osawa Jujiro, pro- in Tokyo, Three Chinese trunks, contain- prietor of the Daiseisha, a printing office ing forged notes to the face value of Y. 600 000,-were seized, besides printing machinery and materials.

Dr. Roga's trial will commence immedi- ately after the summer vacation, which ends on September 10th. Dr. Fanai and. Messrs. Takagi and Kurnsons have been retained for the defence.

THE DANGERS OF INDIGESTION.

You simply can't be well-that is, roully well-if your digestion is bad, for your very food may poison you unless it is digested. That is why indigeation (im- perfect digestion) is the root cause of nearly all oar minor ailtoents arid of many serious ones too.

Food should nourish your body, and. make good the daily waste which never stops, but it can't do that unless your stomach digests it. No wonder dyspeptic often and starved ailing they're men and women are always work and maisoned ton Starved, mind you, not

for lack of food, but because they don't digest the food they eat. Poisoned, not by eating bad foul. but cane their alomachs are weak and their bowels in- active, and so the food they eat ferrets and gives off poisonous gene which are carried by the blood stream to try part of the body.
