I' have taken Castor Oil and salts for a number of years but to no avail, the only relief that has lasted was from your Feen-a-mint which is a wonderful laxative. I am now very partial to your Feen-a-mint and don’t intend taking any other laxative as long as 1 am able to secure Feen-a- mint. Cordially yours, W.A.S.”” e, Feenamint “The Chewing LAXATIVE receives dozens of such let- ters absolutely unsolicited. expanding in other directions, develop- ing other chemical products and a new departieent is being devoted to the manufacture of the all-important rayon. Japan Center Planned. The world's estimated consumption vestuffs annually is estimated at 255,000 metric tons, or more than double that of 1914. That this oppor- tunity to substantially increase her share in this manufacture has already engaged the attention of the directors of the L. G. is seen from the fact that plans are now going ahead to estab- lish an enormous dyestuff center in Kobe, Japan, wherefrom all Oriental needs are to be supplied. The main reason for founding such a basis at Kobe is that China is the world's big- gest consumer of coloring matter. Germany’s avowed rivals in this Oriental field, to say the least, are in the United States. When these plans of the I. G. became known, the du Pont, the National and the Newport interests in America took alarm and set on foot various means of meeting this possible rivalry. As a matter of fact it was the fear of Germany's supremacy in this profit- able dyestuff industry, which includes varnish and lacquer products, that inspired industrial interests in the United States, England and France to carve out quite a novel source of lucre during and after the war. In 1913 England imported 90 per cent of her dyestuffs from Germany. There was then not a single firm comparable to Germany’sshuge con- cerns. The war again became a de. ciding factor and the, merging of various {nterests followed. In 1918 in order to put greater jmpetus into the dyestuff industry and its exportation the British government encouraged the formation of the British Dyestuff Corporation with & capital of 10,000, 000 sterling. The following year it lost 1,000,000 pounds sterling. A hardly better year was 1920, when its meager profit amounted to 100,000 gflunds sterling. The safeguarding f industries act, which parliament passed in 1920 to hold good for the 10 following years, prohibited all impor- tation of foreign dyestuffs. United States Comes Second. Tt s ‘ue that because of the Dpreferential tariff and other parlia- mentary acts Britain is able to put forth a larger quota of dyestuffs on foreign marts, thus heading the list dyes =, which supplies practically all of Canada’s dyestuff need, comes next with her $18,000,000 of dyestuff, lacquer and varnish ex- ports. Germany is a close third, her exports amounting to $16,750,000. These,are the figures of last year's trade Ger 'S outlook in this dyestuff trade Is daily becoming more hopeful. No doubt the recent continental steel combines and the understanding with British magnates are another sign of her growing importance in interna- tlonal trade. That the powerful British Dyestuff Corporation has allowed Ger- man participation in Britain’s dyestuff Industry is taken as a further index to the Reich's forthcoming resurrec- They tell better than any- |[tion in colonial trade. thing else what Feen-a-mint is doing for relief of consti- pation.
