The higher priced issues, while quotations are a shade easier, continue with good en quiries, and scrip on offer, is readily absorbed Tin bus improve steadily, closing up over the week, and the shares have come into more prominence with steady enquiries; a few issues com- manding much improved price. Sterl ings continue in good demand, with the tendency generally towards further im- provement.

RECENT FINANCIAL SAYINGS,

I deplore the fact that everything at the Post Offico passes through the bottle- neck of the secretariat-Lord Burnham. It is no use denying that much of the dificulty of to-day-from suspicion on the part of workers is the legacy of ad- vantages taken by individual employers of the industrial era-Colonel Willy.

Only for Connoisseurs

Of course, sir, tastes differ. Some people have judgment and others have none. But I've more respect, sir, for the man who smokes always an inferior cigarette than the man who smokes good ones one day and just anything the next. Yes, sir, I can say it posi- tively hurts to hand Kensitas to such smokers. Kensitas were not intended for such poor judges because Kensitas are too good to waste: No, sir, they were made for you and all good judges of good cigar- ettes.
