The demand for stocks, which has been fairly | general, has had the effect of raising prices in several instances ànd, what is always a good sign, Hongkong and Shanghai Banks have im- proved to a considerable extent.

THE BRIGHT SIDE

of life. It is a' fouling common to the majority. of us that we do not get quite the amount of happiness we are entitled to. Among the counts less things which toud to make us more or less- miserable ill health takes first place. Hannah More said that sin was genemily to be sturis buted to biliousness. No doubt “a crippled fiver with the resulting impure blood, is the cause of more mental gloom than any other single thing. And who can reckon up the fearful aggregate of pain, low and fear. arising from the many ailments and diseases doud it hangs over a multitude so one which are familiar to mankind; like a vast

can number, You can see these people every- here. For them life can scarcely be said to have any bright side, at all. Kence tho eagerness with which they search for relief and cure. Remedies like

WAMPOLE'S" PREPARATION have not attained their high position in the confidence of the peopls by bald assertions and boasting advertisements. They are: obliged to win it by doing actually what is claimed for them. That this remedy deserves its reputation is conceded. It is palatable as honey and contains the nutritive and curative. properties of Pure Cod Liver Oil, combined with the Compound Syrup of Hypophosphites and the Extracts of Malt and Wild Cherry, Nothing has such a record of success in Scrofula, Anemia, Throat and Lung Troubles, and emaciating complaints and disorders, that tend to undermine the foundation's of strength and vigour. Its use helps to show life's brighter side. Dr. H. L. Reddy,, B. A, M.D., L. K. C. S., Edinburg,—L. R. C. P., London,—Physicing Woman's Hospital-Professor University of Bishops College, Canada, says: "I have much

of debility and have found it to be a very valuable, remedy as well as pleasing to take.” You can take it with the assurance of gelting well. It never disappoints. Sold by all chemists.
