The whole merit of Dr Richards Dyspepsia Tablets is to cure stomach trouble, but this is all that is neces- sary to insure health and maintain 1t in excellent condition.
 MT William J. Medley of 29 Field street, Waterbury, Conn, says:
 Tt gives me great pleasure to tes- tify to the virtues of Dr Richards Dyspepsia Tablets. I have been talk ing this medicine in preference to all others for some time. Owing to the severity of my sufferings I have been under treatment of doctors, but failed to obtain anything more than temporary relief. I was in despair and mentioned the subject to a friend, who advised me to try Dr Richards Dyspepsia Tablets. I got a bottle at Apothecaries' Hall at once and began taking them. To my de- light found instant relief. Being entirely sured myself I shall not lose an opportunity of recommending this medicine to my friends.

During a recent visit to Hai Cheng," says Consul General Sam mons, "a city of between 10000 and 30,O00 population, located near Liao Yang, on the Chinese Eastern railway, the Chinese magistrate, Mir. Kuan Feng Ho, informed me of his desire for H. lustrations and price lists giving in- formation regarding the following ar ticles: Simple mechanical devices for spinning cotton yarn by hand, simple mechanical devices for weaving cotton cloth by hand, hand machines for weaving coarse sacking, simple hand power machinery for weaving coarse silk, and machinery for making rope by hand.
 This particular magistrate is one of the most progressive Chinamen have met in the orient. He is disciple of Yuan Shih Kai, the Tien Tsin viceroy, who is advocating reform methods for China.
 He has turned the two large Budd- hist temples and a temple to Confu- cius. in Hai Cheng, into temples of modern education and modern prison reform methods. The more important temple is the seat of education in Ma gistrate Kuan's district. which com prises a large part of that section of Manchuria between Mukden and the port of Niuchwang- Two bright Japa- nese male educators are in charge. and the chief aim is the practical one of preparing native teachers for the schools soon to be established in the entire district
