INTERESTING TO VOLUNTEER).
The Man with the Sore Feet. A case of interest to Volunteers came before the Penang Court of Requests on April 17 when Lieutenant Alan Wilson, Adjutant, anang Volunteer Corps, sued Mr Owen Harold Wait, described as privato of the Corps, for the recovery of the sum of 825, which it was alleged ha was liable to pay under Regulation 18 made under Sections 9 and 12 of the Volunteer. Ordinance No. VII of 1888. It appeared that Wait joined in July, 1902. He was inefficient in 1905, and in May of that year he tondered his resignation, which was refused, objection being taken becaùso' be agreed to put in "hot less than two under the regulations. The two years expired in July, 190 who upheld. Wait had
Year"
appealed to the Governor
the Commandant's decision. The cause of the refusal to accept the resignation was that defendant gave no sufficient reason; and the Adjutant's argument was that "not loss than two years" meant "more than two years "unless the man could give satisfactory rondon for resigning. In the
course of his evidence in reply to fle Honour, the Adjutant made the rather extraordinary statement that as long as ha remains in Penang, until he attains his 55th year and is in, good health, lie' must romain in the Corps. Wait said, in his evidence, that when he became a member, he was distinctly given to understand that he was only bound to serve for twoyears, and could serve longer if he should want. to do so. He had not attended the drills because of atrodect: His Honour reserved judgments of tak.

Fire Insurances.-Although it is a far cry to San Francisco, and our local companies are happily rot involved in the heavy losses sustained by the recent regrettable disaster, our market was temporarily affected and Hongkongs fell to 8305 with sales, while At time of Chinas changed hands at $86. closing the market is a little steadjør, und sellern fower.

ARE CURED OF DISEASE BY Doan's BACKAUHE KIDNEY PILLS.
R JOHN DAY, 29, Gravel Walk, years old, but I've been so well since Doan's Backache Kidney Pills cured my kidney complaint, that I don't feel anything like 85, and I fully believe I shall live to be a hundred. Many a time before I used Doan's Pille I was doubled up with the agonizing paio in my back, and I used to think that it was all up with me.. At nights I couldn't turn in bod, and I was weak and nervous. The water was very bád, thick and scalding, sometimes I lost control of it, and at other times it had to be drawn from me by an instrument..
'I very soon found that Doan's Back- ache Kidney Pills were just what I needed;
