Pekin and Its Surroundings.

The Okioese capital consists of two ] adjoining walled cities, commonly known *s the Tartar and the Chinese city. The Tartar city forms a huge quadrangle, each side of which mea sures roughly five miles, and the Chinese city lies to the south of is fo Bring an elongated para'lelogroni, *hich measures about six railfls by tkree, soth&t its breath overlaps the ■walla of the Tartar ci'.y by about half i a mile on either side. Ihe walls of both cities are pierced at regular in tervals by double gates, sixteen in all, which are cloeed from sunset to sun rise, as are also the gates in the wall separating the Tartar from the Chinese city. The lin per Ul city, containing all , the Government offices and the resi dence* of the highest Mandarins, forms another walled enclosure in th^ middle of the Tartar city, and again, in the heart of the Imperial city, a girdle of pink walla divides off tha residence of the Son of Heaven, known as the For bidden City. The whole area of Fekin may be estimated at about twenty five square miles, and the length of i's outer wails at thirty miles. The walls of the Tartar city are 50 feet high, and about 60 feet broad »t the bf»Be and 40 feet at the top. These <£ th» Chinese city, of more recent constructio , are only 30 feet in heigh*, a-.d 25 feet and 15 feet respectively in breadth a«i base and top, Ti ey are built mainly of bub dried bricks filled in with rubblp, anrt though strengthened at regular inter vals by projecting buttresses' and guardhouses over every gate, they are practically unarmed and could off-r no resistance to tfee fire of modern artil lery. A largo part of this enormous walled area, especially in tho southern h>»lf of the Chinese ci'y and in the north-eastern part of the Tartar city, consist* of cultivated fields, parrSer*?, %ni. waste spaces. The population, which probably does not. f xcf ed thn-* ---quarters of a million, is mainly concen trated in the northern half of" the Chinese city and in ih*t portion of the Tartar city which surrounds the Impe rial precincts.

The foreign Legationu and the resi dences of the few foreigners outside of the Diplomatic Corps who inhabit Pekin (with the exception of the Christian churches End missionary establishmenss, which are scattered about the native quarters of the Tartar f ty, especially in the eastern section) ft-e located inside the Tartar city, to the south east of the Imperial city, and therefore between it and the wall ■eparatihg the Tartar from the Chinese city, The street in which most of the Legations are situated, and hence commonly known as Legation Street, runs almost "patrallel to that wall, and about 250 yards from it. The Legations consist for the most part of small com pounds, each surrounded by low brick ■wails', and containing a number of separate buildings for the Minister, his staff, and housebo'd. The British Legation compound, which is the most spacious, cevere, perhaps, an acre and a half. rJhe Minister's own residence was formerly a Chinese bouse, and the green tiles and ornamentation of its roof still denote the rank of the Imperial clansman who formerly in habited it. Since it was leased to ub in 1861 by the Chinese Government modern buildings have been erected within the pnclcsare for the use of the large Europeau staff, the diplomatic secretaries the members of the Con sukr Service, and the student inter preters, aa well as separate outhouses for the Chinese attendants and ser vant«.—London Times.

Cures all Diseases of the Skin Eczema, Salt-rheum, Tetter, Rashes, Pimples, Blackheads, Boils, Ulcers — AH Due to Impure Blood. Read how tliis young girl was cured with Ayer's Sarsaparilla Mrs. May Watson, 9 Rose Road, Surry Hills, Sydney, New So. Wales, sends us the above photograph of her daughter, together with the following testi monial : "My daughter was suffering terribly from eczema on both her hands and feet. I had tried many remedies without success. Remembering I had received great help from Dr. Ayer's Sarsaparilla myself, I began to give it to my daughter. Soon she showed signs of improvement, and after taking a few bottles the sores " disappeared and she is now free from the slightest symptom of the old complaint. She is as fresh and healthy as any girl could wish to be. This makes me strongly recommend this wonderful medicine to any one needing a good blood-purifier." Such cures always follow the use of "The World's Greatest Family Medlcineu" You cannot feel well unless your blood is pure, and it must be rich, too. Dr. Aver's Sarsaparilla will give you both of these, —pure blood, rich blood. That is'what you need and what you can quickly have if you will only give this old, reliable remedy a good trial. Get your blood right and you will no longer suffer with depression, nervousness, general debility, or some form of skin disease.
