FREIGHT.

In their report of Feb. 21, Messrs. Larake and Rooge wrile :-Expectations that a further

all-round improvement would follow the change for the better as reported in last circular have- not been realized. There has not been much bastaess offering during the fortnight under review, and handy-sized boats remain idle that would have taken and would take any freight worth having.

The big companies have advertised the first hoals for Tientsin, and another 4 weeks or so will see Newchwang open; freights are bound therefore to be livelier before very much longer. Concerning chartering done since last re- port: Frem Saigon, demand for tonnage has practically all been for requirements for Java, a direction that does not suit owners at present, for the difficulty of sacuring return cargoes. Tigher rates have successfully been held for and business done between 24 and 27 cents per picul; the market, however, closes easier. Offers for boats to lond Saigon for the Philip- pines there have been none locally, and for tongkong the 'demand has been exceedingly light, some two or three boats have closed at 13 and 14 cents. For Japan, some further charters previously done at 29 cents have been allowed to became known'and there is als a report that in this direction a Japanese bust, the Kotohira Marx, has accepted 27 cents and for pin cargo only. For Vladivostock, early March, a steamer secured a charter for about 33, do piculs at 55 cents; other would-be char- terers have been quoting lower, and no farther fixture is reported, though owners have be come more willing to meet charterers For large size tonnage there have been negotiations at about 15 to 14/- per ton.

From Java to this port requirements appear to be completely filled by tonnage offering by

DOMESTIC HARMONY

When husband and wife disigree, as a rule, neither is to blame. Perhaps the husband, overworked at business, is depressed, nervous

and irritable; the wife on her side, is excitable. and bodily weak. This weakness proceeds. either from a disordered digestion or a general state of low health resulting from the numer ous ailments of the weaker sex.

Dr. Williams' ink Pills restore harmony in the house, for they give tone to the over wrought nerves, impart an appetite and power In digest food, and enrich and purify the blood, while in women they give regular health and the strength that is necessary for everyday worries in the home. There is new blood for men and women in every dose of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills-blood which produces strength and banishes disease.

a perfect misery. A doctor stated I was suffer- No. 15 ang from gastric calarth, and about this time my nervous system was so run down that- my sight was affected.

Nothing seemed to remove the feeling of ́depression and weakness that had come over mr. So I grow weaker and more nervous; I was really terrified at the thought of being left alone.

"One day, however, my husband bought me a bottle of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I began to feel better after the first few pills and you can imagine my husband's joy. With one bottle my appetite Improved greatly and the pains in the head vanished. After three bottles of the pills I felt as well and as strong as ever I did in my life. It is wonderful to think that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills effected what no other medicine could do."
