China is fast losing it's tea trade. In 1864 97 per cent of the tea consumed in the world
 was grown in China and 3 per cent. in India.
 In 1888 China's contribution to the worlds consumption was 43 per cent, while 57 per cent was grown in India. Of course, there has been great increase in consumption dur ing this time, so that ths decline in the de. mand for the Chinese product is relative rather than positive one. But, from the figures given above, it will be seen that the ness in which they are prospecting greatly, with the fair prospect of possessing still larger share of the trade, These gains are , due to the intelligence shown by the Euro.

Hotels are one Of the strongest attractions
in America to Americans, especially the
ladies.
When we Europeans travel, we alight at
hotel, because it is impossible that we should
have a pitching place Of our own in each
town we visit, or friends able to receive us;

bed and table, and set out to see the world a
little, we say to ourselves; THE worst of it is
that we shall have TO live in hotels perhaps
for a month or two, but, after all, it cannot
be helped, we must put mp with hotels since
we have made up our minds TO see Switzer-
land. or Scotland. OF Italy" Our object in
