Modern Science now enables all users of Electric light to have, also, an Electric time-keeper at but an inflaï- tesimal extra cost for current.

Simply plug this wonderful clock into the nearest light socket, set it to the right time and forget all the worries of winding, cleaning and regulating.

It costs less to operate this electric clock than to keep an ordinary clock in repair, and you get Time-ball time always..

Many beautiful models of this Telechron are now en show and you are invited to inspect them-to-day. A Telechron will make a distinctive, and much appreciated present.

A physician writes

in the "Medical Echo":

"After taking Sana". agen for a few weeks I can do my work without any feeling of fatigue ensuing at arsy time."

"Oh that 1 Yes! I didn't feel so well a few weeks ago. I felt pretty bad-nervous, no appetite and so on. But Sanatogen made a wonderful difference. In a few weeks time all the old energy came back. It's a glorious thing to be thoroughly healthy, in fact, it makes you feel young again."

Sanatogen infuses into the cells of blood and nerves exactly those elements-phos phorus and albumin-from which bodily health and nerve strength are derived. La the Medical Echo of Jan. 1926, a physicias describes how he tested Sanatogen on 5 medical students:

"In a fortnight their physical and mental antity increased by an overage of 23% Sonne of their comments on Sass-ogen være omwing such as: A red joy-killer brøsa-jogger

RAYON INDUSTRY IN JAPAN,

PRODUCTION AND EXPORTS

SHOW RAPID.

EXPANSION.

The development of the rayon industry of Japan has become more and more marked, and it is expect ed that the import of foreign-made rayon will be completely checked within the next few years.

The rayon industry for this year has made very satisfactory progress as compared with last year, with increasing trend of exports and pro- duction and decreasing trend of im- pozte. The Oaka Mainichi says it is estimated the total production

In the annual report of Lloyd's Register of Shipping, extracts from which were published in yesterday's issue, reference was made to the fact that cargo vessels are now re- quired to undertake voyages, in the ballast condition, of longer dura- tion and of greater speeds than has been customary hitherto. It used to be said

that the British | 9.83 Mercantile Marine was built up on the basis of outward cargoes of coal and homeward cargoes of foodstuffs and of raw material for manufac-1 ture, but a marked increase in ballast soyages has been noticeable in the freight markets within re cent years. To a considerable ex- tent this would seem to be a re- sult of the use of oil fuel, which has restricted the demand for coal overseas for bunkering, while the very large number of oil tank ves- sela which bring fuel to Great Bag. Britain have to proceed outwards $4.05

CANTON COTTON YARN.

A telegram was received by the Canton cotton yarn dealers from

Eastern Canada is a signal exam- ple of a trade which was long one mainly of exports to Great Britain, but in which there has within recent years been a develop ment of British coal imports. Freights are naturally lowest when there, are both import and export cargoes available, and this is one reason why it should

MRS. BRADLEY-DYNE,

ALLEGED TO HAVE LEFT ENGLAND FOR SPAIN,

November 1st.

Mrs. Bradies-Dyne, it was stated at the London Bankruptcy Court, had gone to Spain to join her hus- - band,

A sitting was beld by Mr. Regis- trar Warmington for her public examination, but in her absence it was adjourned until January 18th.

The Senior Official Receiver, Mr. Walter Boyle, reported that Mire. Bradley-Dyne had not filed the cash account ordered to be filed on ja previous occasion, and his Honour ordered the account to be filed on ar before November 30th.

Mr. Tindale Davis, on behalf of the Trustee, stated that his client in July asked Mrs. Bradley-Dyne for her passport, a request which she strongly resented, but she gave a promise not to leave the country before her public examination with out frat isforming him of her inten tion.

On September 12th she wrote a letter on the headed notepaper of the Park Lane Hotel, Piccadilly," which she had left on the 8th, stating that she proposed to go. abroad, and that she would send her address as soon as possible.

So far as one could judge, added Mr. Davis, that letter was posted in a neighbourhood in which her brother resided." She left the coun- bry on September 8th.
