Mr. Sharp I shall ask your Lordship to accept auther point of view.
His Lordship Jusé so,
Mr. Pollock resumed his address to the jury, contending that the defendants were not guilty of negligence and that the plaintiffs were not entitled to judgmont.
Mr. Sharp, in His address to the jacy, said he would ask them to consider the subject under the headings of the questions which he would submit to the jury. The first was. Whether the anchor was droppet in the cable reserve.
His Lordship That is admitted.

This remarkable book is entitled to and will undoubtedly experience more than two editions, Ta the properly balanced mind, its presentation should require no excusos, but in deference to social prejudices, the anthor, hintaining anonymity, wrole an eloquent preface to the first edition, to disarm criticism, or at any rate tarart the misunderstandings and wrong judgments that are always to be expected in such connections. Then, when the valno of the
work, not only as a collatión al data "for students of sociology, medical men, and philanthropists," but also as an invaluable historical record for all interested in sinology, | became apparent, the author took courage, and owned the child of his irsin. More than that, he contributes a second preface, in which he ababis the quasi-apologulic tone of one ander reproof; and himself beconies, with some jnatice, the acenser. Mes, „Grundy is doneunced

He said the defendants were not prepared at the ontset to ulmit that the cable fished up on the Rubiaschor belonged to the plaintiffs, because they bad no possible means of knowledge, but there conid be no donht now that it belonged to the plaintiffs. Au explanation of the cable being Juuled up by the anchor would doubtless be found in the fact that the Rubi dragged her anolors. There mass buve been a strain on them. The jury had to consider only
points.
first was- Whether The or not it was negligent of those in charge of the Rubi to proceed towards Kowloon Bay fron her bucy at 13-15 on the morning of the Bill August. The sound point was-Whether or not it was negligent on the part of those in charge of the Rubi to drop her anchor where she did in the circumstances. He submitted that it was proper for the captain to anchor

The programme was a very long one, and rantained an. abundance of comic, esiles sufficient of rentimental conge sad recitations.

Agony for
Eight Long Years-Doctors Were Unable to Cure Her.
SPEEDILY CURED
BY CUTICURA
"I had suffered terrible agony and pain for eight long years from a terrible ec zema on the scalp and face. The best doctors were unable to help me, and I had spent a lot of money for many remedies without receiving any benefit. My scalp was covered with scabs, my face was like a piece of raw beef, my cyebrows and lashes were falling out, and sometimes I felt as if I was burning up from the terrible itching and pain. then
began treating myself at home, and now my head and face are clear and I am entirely well. I first bathed my face with Cuticura Soap, then applied Cuticura Ointment to the afflicted
parts, and took Cuticura Resolvent for the blood. I was greatly relieved after the first application, and continued use of Cuticura soon malé a complete cure. Miss Mary F. Fay, Westboro, Mass.”
AGONIZING ECZEMA
And Itching, Burning Eruptions with Loss of Hair, Cured by Cuticira.
Bathe the affected parts with hot water and Cuticura Soap, to cleanse the surface of crusts and scales, and soften the thick. eaed cuticle dry, without hard rubbing, and apply Cuticura Ointment freely, to allay itching, irritation, and infamma tion, and soothe and heal; and, lastly take Cuticura Resolvent Pills to cool and cleanse the blood. A single set is often sufficient to cure the most torturing, dis- figuring skin,
