A husky throat is not only a sign that you have a cold-it can be the cause of one. Germs are. always present. Sore throat-inflamed mem-“ brane offer them opportunity to multiply.
An occasional Evans' Pastille will protect both threat and lungs. In Evans' Pastilles→→ made to the formula of the Liverpool, Throat Hospital- are valuable, soothing remedies. They ease you at once and the antiseptic vapours they give off reach every seat of infection in the most remote parts of Jangs, nose and throat.. Public Speakers and Singers, the world over, highly recommend them.

PRESIDENT GOES AGROUND.
STRIKES ROCK DURING
THE NIGHT.
The Dollar Line round-the-world liner. President Harrison' wont aground on a rock just off Bonham Island in the northern part of the Chusan group about 80 miles from Shanghai at 1.45 am. on the th Inst. Reports wirelessed to the' Dollar Company offices' by. Captain Porta of the Harrison stated that,
e vessel had been refloated at 10 o'clock nëxt day during high tide and was proceeding, under her own power to Fairway Buoy in the mouth of the Yangtze,
When the news of the vessel's plight was received in Shanghai the tugs Victoria, Saucy and St. Aubin, belonging to the Shanghai Tug and Lighter Co., were sent to her assistance. The Victoria took off the 250 passengers (80 firat class and the rest steerage) as well as some gald, and part of the more. valuable carge.
Few details of how the vesicl happened to an aground have, so far been officially received neither is the extent of the damage' dé- Anitely known. It is believed, however, that only the two for ward holds were damaged, reports stating that there were several 11 fect of water in these compart- ments. The fact that she return-13 ed to Shanghai under her own 14 power, however, leads to the con-17 clusion that she was not as much damaged as was at first thought.
Fortunately, for the officers of the ship and the tugs sent to her assistance the weather was calm

A description of the position of the rock on which the Harrison raniver aground as related by passengers was that it was about 300 fathoms a from one of the smaller islands of the group which, in turn, was
from about the same distance larger island on which was n lighthouse. At the time of the accident she was stunming in a calm sea and clear weather when, without warning, the vessel hit the rock, and the passengers and crew were thrown into a panic, which lasted the rest of the night and until it was known that she was in no immediate danger. The S.0.5.15 signals were sent out immediately and the rescue tugs dispatched from Shanghai.
The waters in which the Har rison was sailing at the time are said to be some of the most treach- erous in this part of the world, all vessels in their journey to Hong- kong by the route being forced to travel through myriads of islets. At this time of the year, tco; the titles are running particularly high, thus making navigation of the straits more difficult, as a vossel is likely to be carried off her course a small way, but enough to get her into difficulty.
An Ugly Hole.
According to the passengers the hole made by the rock in the for- ward hold, is an ugly one,, extend- ing for a way above the water line. At the time the passengers left the ship the boy was well up on the rock while the stern was almost flush with the water's edge.
The Harrison is so constructed that should the two forward holds, the two smallest, fill with water she would still be in no immediate danger unless very rough weather
should set in.
At no time during the vessel's time on the rocks was it, thought | necessary, to take the crew off,
