Mr. Birch made an effort to learn, what was wrong, but he was driven away and had both his hands burnt severely before he regained the upper deck. The store room is a small compartmeal on a level with the engine room, and a deer, Connecting the twe, is the only aperture leading from the former. On the opposite side of the dogions are the pumps; an attempt was at ouce made to use them, but the smoke and beat put them quite beyond reach. Meanwhile the fire had increased in strength, for, there was a large quantity of oil and some waste in the store room. At that time it was pol knows what became of the fireman, and it was impossible to find out,

This made me very weak indeed, my appetite falled me, I had dervousness so bad that I was almost like a man afflicted with Play in fact I could hardly keep a limb stil. Even at night my life was made miserable by feverish attacks-I would be in a white-heat of 'perspira tion one moment, and this would be followed by cold chills, just as if I had been planged into an ice-cold bath. At this time, too, the wound in my log became more paiòfol than ever. Often, soʻgreat was my suffering that I said to my wife I cannot stand all this agony much longer. The doctor told me that constant exposure to too much heat was the cause of my trouble-working as I had to do every day close to my engine fire, and with the blazing sun pouring down upon the iron roof just over my head-but they could do nothing for me.

When I started taking Dr. Williams pisk pills on the advice of a friend, my blood had become like water. I was a feeble, yellow. faced, hopeless,man, simply crawling miserab- ly to work every day because I had to. But after I had taken about two bottles of these Pille I felt a decided improvement, and when had taken six more not only was my health better still, but the running sore on my leg, which had given me so much trouble and pals for six years, had totally healed up! So I went on taking Dr. Williams' pink pills for some time longer until I found that I needed them no more. They had restored me to the pink of condition, had given me an excellent appetite, and bad restored to me the blessed privilege of sound refreshing sleep.

The Fahlée, leading, at once ran alongside the Tingrang, which was moored close to the burning vessel, and towed her out of danger alongside the wharf. The Victoria, the 'lean and the "Sinfuzywn went alongside the Taksang and turned their holl on the fire. It was very difficult, however, to reach the flames (brough the one small door and the fire raged fiercely. The engine room becams red hot and the outer plates of the vessel, on the storeroom side, heated to such an extent that the Victoria had to move further along to avoid taking fire herself. A large number of the Shanghai Volunteer Firemen and many members of the River Police rapidly assembled and there was no scarcity of labour. Mean

The Clutha X did particularly good work: the services of the Municipal fire float were not required. The naval squads remained on board until about 130 p.m. when the fire was completely subdu ed. Inspector Mellows had a party of the River Police remained there all night and the teader Victoria stayed alongside, in case of emergency, Later in the night the Faktings pumps were started and the water all laken out. As examination of the ship was made subsequently and it was found, that the result was comparatively trifling. The engines are 'bot damaged, although all the interior of the engine room is blistered and burst and the skylight above is charred copsiderably. Some light damage was done to the fan engino, principally to its balting,
