PROGRESS IN CHINA.

Dragon's Empire*
Hit Majesty the Emperor of China and the
"Son of Heaven " is enjoying a train of min
iature railroad cars, presented to him by the
French syndicate of capitalists who wish to
get contracts for building railways.
In China, they will wonder at its steam
engine; and tho six thousand electric lights,
which are now being introduced into the
holiest of Chinese sanctuaries, cannot but
turn their oyes to our civilisation. It will!
not be long ere a material advancement will
be made in tho science of medicine, which
hat for so many centuries remained a blot
upon their civilisation.
The mivionaries are doing much to dispel

remedies which have long been* favorably
known in America and Europe, such as Dr.
Pierotfs Golden Medical Discovery, a remedy
for all cases of blood-iainU or kumort, which
has had years of uninterrupted suocees in the
United states, and numbers its cores by the
tens of thoutsnds. This is a point gained for
the future welfare of the Drogomen Empire.
