ASTHMA

CAN Be Cured.

THEN why be half suffocated, and sit up all night cough- ing and gasping for breath when BSE dose of

NOBBS' ASTHMA GURE will give you certain, prompt relief and ensure a good night's rest? This, the only genuine cure for Asthma, discovered by Mr. NOBBS, a qualified Chemist, and a sufferer for many years, will, if taken when necessary, effect a radical cure of this erstwhile in- ourable malady.

Political Education in Japan. Some form of political educa tion is evidently needed, but that any such education is likely to be introduced in present circum- stances is very doubtful. So far the powers-that-be in Japan have ehown no desire for the political education of the people: indeed, they have generally manifested an extreme anxiety to check any independent "political thinking. The official class, which is the | most highly educated, ✨ has ita bread and butter to earn and this keeps clear of all dangerous thooghts," se independent views

The only course seems to lie through the taxpayers' pookata and a revolt against the present heavy imports. There are not wenting signs of such a revolt, and if it was successful s prac tical lesson would be given of the power of the people to direct the affairs of the country in so far at

mediately affecting them, and they would be encourage. to make similar efforts in other directions.. In any case, it is a source of satisfaction to find the name of Mr. Ozaki again among the Cabinet members, since it in- dicates that at least some recogni. tion ia to be given to more modern ideas of government.

South China Morning Post.

Patrol of the West River, The ships comprising the China Squadron are at their best an ill assorted lot, and mostly to be found in northern waters at this season of the year. As to the statement that there are a num- ber of ganbaals on the West River," we helieve that the work of patrolling the 250 add miles of pirate-ridden, waterway has been entrusted to two puny torpedo "boats which are not even known by a name. Gocasionally tha Moorhen and the Robin are to be found in Samaboi or Wuchow but the pirates naturally give these populous centres as wide a berth. as possible. There is no justifi. cation whatever for Mr. Winston Churchill's statement that "the British patrol of the West River is believed to be sufficient for its purpose." Its inadequacy bas been proved over and over again and will be admitted by everyone familiar with the situation, It is to be hoped that the Government of Bergkong will take the earliest opportunity of enlightening the First Lord of the "Admiralty on this important matter. In the absence of particulare,' he said "Fpeculation on this subject is ust loss," Why, then, does

The Oll Resources of the Empire. Lecturing at the Society of Arts TRANSPORT, recently, on the "Oil Resources of

the Empire," Dr. Fa Molina. Peikin, FIU, remarked that he did not wish to lefer to mineral oile only. Fifty years ago, vege- table and animal oils had been very machy more employed than mineral oils, both for lubrication No. 1683. and illumination, and although comparatively small quantities of mineral oil were at present obtain-: od in Great Britain cand in Pominions, the British Colonies supplied enormous quantities of - vegetable oils which added grea ly to the wealth of the Empire. In Great Britain itself only traces of mineral oil had been located. The occurrence of natural oil in: Derbyshira had suggested (o James Young that the oil which soon gåve 'ont, had been produced by the terrestrial heat from shules, and he had in 1850 taken, out the fist patent on a distillation process of shale oil, Shales now WING to the 'increase of our yielded from 18 to 40 gallons of
