"I find that Bisurated' Magnesio taken after most of my meals is the only thing that keeps me free from bein and discomfort, and i take it regularly, I often prescribe #par my patients, and have had very good results."

(Signed) Dr. H. G, B.A., M.R.C.S. L.R.G.P. THE English doctor is the most conservative medical I man in the world, and when he not only recommenda but personally uses a remedy there can be no more con vincing proof of its efficacy. This doctor is but one of many who constantly advise the use of Bisarated Magnesia in all cases of indigestion. Most stomach trouble is caused by acidity. and the reason why Bisurated Magnesia gives quick relief is that it in- stantly neutralises excess acid and soothes, beals and strengthens the inflamed stomach lining. Nothing could be simpler, safer or surer, If you suffer with indigestion or stomach disorder of any kind put your faith in European science and make an end of your troubles by taking Bisurated' Magnesia after eating or whenever pain is felt.

Stockholm, Feb. 8. Greta Garbo hopes to return to film work as soon as possible, and to supervise at Hollywood the filming of "The Lady of the Camel ilas,"

Rumours that she is suffering from a nervous breakdown ari religious mania and that she has financial worries are described as absolutely untrue.

The famous ilm star's brother said to-night that his sister is somewhere in the country, ak!- ing. "As far as I know she is all right," he added.

Hon Mr. Lo entered a plea of gulity on his behalf and explained- that the defendant had been em- ployed by the Bank of China for over 16 years. The facts of the case were actually 'reported by the Bank to the authorities. The de- fendant bore a good character in Industry and in his work. At the Bank every six years there was a commutted bonus paid to em- ployees if they did not take leave within a certain period. The de- fendant had another 18 years to serve and if he were to get the benefit of the pension he would be $7,000 together with entitled to certain amounts On insurance which had already been paid. The defendant received a 'salary of $185 which included allowances. Last year his aged father died and h's Illness incurred much money. wife The defendanta "kit fat" died in 1923 and he now had a "tin fong" wife, three children of school age and two younger brothers.

LIPTON'S TEA HINTS

There is nothing easier thau to make tea well-except to make it badly. So here are some hints on how to make the best of it.

BUYING TEA Tea is the cheapest and most economical drick in the world. From one pound of good tea you can brew as many as 2.0 cups. And it pays in the long run to buy good tea because it is more economical to use, And the difference between the cost of one cup of poor tea But there is all the and one cup of good tea is ao infinitesimally small as not to matter. difference in the favour and it is the flavour that is really the luxury that everyone can now afford

STORE TEA IN AN AIR-TIGHT CONTAINER. Tea loses it. Bavoar if it is exposed to the air for long, especially in a moist climate. It ought to be kept in a caddy, or in a glass jar with a screw top, or in clean tiu.

USE ONLY FRESHLY BOILED WATER. Take care to warm the pot thoroughly before patting in the tes. Then pour on freshly boiled water-not water that has been allowed to simmer. Batter tea will be made if the kettle is kept free from the lime or chalk deposits of hard water.

ALLOW FOUR MINUTES FOR INFUSION. Pour freshly boiled water. on to the leaves until the tea pot is full, but don't pour out the tea into cups until you have allowed it to stand for at least four minutes. The lid, of course, thould be put back as soon as the water is poured into the pot, and then the whole should. be covered with a cosy. Don't forget that tes should never be allowed to "staw.".
