OUR SALES TO CHINA.
Are Double Those Of All Continental
Europe.

Washington, June 22.-ConsuI Fow-
Ter at Che Foo in a supplement to
former report to the state department
from Consul General Goodno from
Shanghai upon the United States trade
with China, shows that in four years
from 1896 to 1899, inclusive, we have
doubled our sales to China. In 1897
the value of these sales exceeded
those Of all continental Europe by
1920, PSI; in 1898 this excess had in
s6191, 936. China imported American
goods last wear to the value of S16-
2SS, AS, and British goods to the value
of S2S 936, 0S3. fve-siXths of the total
Importation coming from British and
American territory. and more than half
from Great Britain alone. In the mat
ter Of exports, statistics show that the
United States bought more of China
in 1859 than any other country in the
world The exports last year were
valued at s13. ss5, 1855, our increase Of
trade during the year being ten times
greater than Great Britain's for the
same period. Consul Fowler strongly
urges q more direct method of ship
ping our goods to China. Says the
consul:
Have seen but one merchant
steamer under our flag (and she had no
right to iD since I ca1nc TO China, in
February, 1890, ten years agO-and it
was seven years before I saw a sailor
direct from the United States.
About one-fortieth of the foreign
carrying trade of China last year was
done under the United Statbs flag.
while more than half was under the
British ensign. Germany did ten times
as well as the United States"
Consul Fowler concludes as follows:
I can see from my desk six mod
ern Chinese men of war, all built in
Germany or England. A large Ger
man corporation keeps a representative
always in Pekin''

FOR MALARIA,
CHILLS and fever.
The Best Prescription Is Groves
Tasteless Chill Tonic.
The Formula Is Plainly Printed on Every Bottle
So That the People May Know Just
What They Are Taking.

Imitators do not advertise their formula
knowing that you would not buy their medi-
cine if you knew what it contained. Groves
contains Iron and Quinine put up in correct
proportions and is in Tasteless form. The
Iron acts as tonic while the Quinine drives
the malaria out of the system. Any reliable
druggist will tell you that Groves is the
Original and that all other so-called "Taste-
less" chill tonics are limitations. An analysis
of other chill tonics shows that Groves is
superior to all others in every respect. You are
not experimenting when you take Grove's-its
superiority and excellence having long been
established. Groves is the only Chill Cure sold
throughout the entire malarial sections of the
United States. No Cure, No Pay. Price, SOC.
