A MOTHER TELLS HOW SBE
SAtED DAUGHTERS X.IFE.
I am tLe mtjther of eight child
ren and have had a great deal of
experience with medicines. Last
summer my little daughter had
the dysentery in its worst form.
We thoueht she would die. I
tried everything Leonid think of.
I saw by an advertisement iu oar
paper that Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Kemedy
was highly recommended and
sent and got a bottle at once. It
proved to be one of the very best
medicines we ever had m the
house. It saved mv little dausht-
er's life." I am anxious for every
motner to know what an excellent
medicipe it is. Had known it at
first it would haVe saved me a
great deal of anxietv and my
little daughter much suffering.

It was a Spanish calamity
in tho groat battlo of Santiago
Bay that her ships were quickly
sot on firo and had to bo run
ashore to allow the men to escape
while otherwise the batteries
could have dono much hard fight
ing yet. When Dewey went into
the battlo at Manila, he took the
precaution or at least Captain
Coglan on tho Raleigh did, to
throw overboard every , wooden
thing, even to - the -plank parti
tions in the officers' cabins; The
danger of fire is very great where
there is combustiblo Matter on a
warship. . ; . s ;
But now the ingenuity of man
has come to the rescue, and wood
is being made absolutely non
combustible.' The Scientific American gives
the process, which is in sub
stance the following: The wood
is. placed in an air-tight and
steam-tight chamber of great
strength. Therein it is thor
oughly steamed This dissolves
any juices or dried fluids ; in the
wood. Then the steam, air and
all is pumped out under very
heavy pressure. This tends to
draw or suck out the matter that
burns, or that by fermenting
would produce decay. The wood
is now, ver porous and 5 open. An
alkaline fluid is let in without
letting in the air. Again , great
pressure is put on and the fluid
is driven thoroughly through the
"wood. ? !; V ' Vi
It is now so thoroughly-fireproof
that it is said it can only
be charred a little way in. The
wood' is ' not essentially - weak
ened and is suSsejitible to higher
polish than; fever: before, The
process promises to be largely
practiced in shipbuilding.
