English justice were when a day or two afterwards they road in the papers that the inhabitants of Wellington had just put £.25,000 through ths totalisator, and when they found in the Dunedin papers regular quotations of the odds about the horses engaged in the approaching races at the Forbury, aud " consultations " thereon advertised by the dozen. It may well puzzle their benighted brains to discover what it is that makes fan-tan so demoralising, dangerous, and reprehensible, while all descriptions of gambling on horse racing are regarded as right and proper. We confess that we share the inability of our Chinese friends to "savee" why this is thus, or why tho Magistrate, who is bound to uphold the majesty of the law bj fining the fan-tan player, should be at perfect liberty immediately thereafter to book a double on the Cup i and Hurdles, or to invest his pound on lan outsider in tho totalisator. For very ' shame's sake we think the authorities should, at any rate during the racing season, refrain from raids upon the j Chinese gamblers. ! A GREAT BUSINESS. Tho United States of America is the home of some very large enterprises, but none perhaps greater than the business conducted by , Mr G. G-. Green, of Woodbury, New Jersey, i U.S.A. He is the proprietor of the wellknown Bosohee's German Syrup, which is unequalled as a remedy for Pulmonary and Bronchial affections. He manufactures also Green's August Flower for Dsypepsia and all disordors of the Liver. Theso preparations are used throughout the civilized world and thousands testify to their valuable curative properties. Both these preparations have reached an immense sale solely on their merits. Sample bottles of each are sold at GJ, or full sized bottles at 3a Gd. All druggista keep them. i L """" llM * — — ■ — ■^— ■ — — — — — I KEMEMBER THIS. IF YOU ARE SICK.
