THE TRUTH ALWAYS."

When you are is doubt tell the truth." It was an experienced old diplomat who said this to a beginner in the work. It may pass in some things, but not in business. Fraud and decep- tion are often profitable so long as concealed; vet detection is certain sooner or later; thep comes the smash-up and the punishment. The bort and safest way is to tell the truth all the me. Thus you make friends that stick by you, and a reputation that is always worth twenty shillings to the pound everywhere your goods vre offered for sale. We are able modestly to Affirm, that it is on this basis that the world. wide popularity of

The fine lander Victoria was specially re- tained, as we have said, to bring His Ex- cellency and party from Wassung, and his arrival amongst us was very properly made the occasion of quite a little ceremony. The Victoria went down to Wonsung in the early mornings with Mr. FS. A, Bourne, Assistant Judge, Mr. B. Twyman, Acting Consul-General, Captain Walkin, of the Clin, and one or two other officials on board; and the distinguished party having been transhipped from the Empress of Japan, returned under a leisurely head of steam to Shanghai, arriving at the Customs Jetty about 10-20, three quarters of an hour after the regular tender with the mails. On the Bund outside the Customs receiving shed, a company of bluejackets from 14 M, S. Clio and the other British warships in port, were dravo up as a guard of honour; and a little further along, opposite the German Bank, a squad of foreign and Indian police-troopers were in waiting under the command of Sergeant Spottiswoode, to fall in as an escort for the Minister and Lady Jordan, as soon as they should take their places in the handsome landau, with mafoos in the Ewo livery, which was also in attendance.

Nothing has been so successful in Anemia, Scrofula, Bron. chitis, influenza, Loss of Flesh and Wasting Diseases, Weakness and Low Nervous Tane, and all complaints caused by Impure Blood. Dr. Austin D. Irvine, of Canada, sayı: "I have used it in cases where cod liver oil ras indicated but could not be taken by the patient, and the results following were very gratifying." It is effective from the first dose and agrees with the most sensitive and nervous stomachs.
