tti"lit up till the last minute on Thurstlay last (says the Auckland "Star") ifc was feared that tho mail steamer Niagara was to bo held up m Sydney on account of shortage of creiv.. Several deijartments on the slnp were affected, but by dint of much ilirjuiry a complement was at last secured, and the vessel got .away for Auckland on time. It was learnt on inquiry in Auckland that the position in Sydney is assuming serious proportions. In days gone by there was nearly always a surplus of labour about the wharves to fill any vacancy that might occur aboard a vessel ready to sail, but the n-ar has swallowed this surplus up, and the shipowner has now to go further afield. When the Niagara left Sydney tliero were a considerable number of big Home liners looking in vain for men to"complete their crews. The shortage is noticed particularly' in the stokehold, firemen and being scarce, as well as troublesome,_ just now. In thisrespect tho Niagara is at an advantage the introduction of oil fuel having eliminated tho stokehold staff. There has been a ereat demand for tho celebrated Victor cheefio vat. during the, past few months; anyore requiring new vats are urged to write immediately to the maker, as material is extremely 6hort.

MODERN MIRACLES. The beautiful daughter of Mrs. R. A. Addington, Argent Street, Broken Hill) is declared to have been cured of St. Vitus Dance by —CLEMENTS TONIC— Recently in France a peasant woman, whose little girl tad been bedridden with, paralysis for years, had occasion to visit a churchyard which contained the statue of a well-known saint. Some of the mould from the tomb adhered 'to her handkerohief, which upon touching the child cured her. , The fact is vouched for upon reliable authority. Miracles are not all confined to the older countries, for we hare heard also of similar remarkable incidents in newer countries and very often in' Australia. A few years ago a certain section of Broken Hill was electrified by the recovery from apparently incurable St.,,Yitus Dance of the daughter of Mrs. R. A. Addington, of Argent Street. It was on the 10th October, 1911, when first the mysterious cure was reported. The mother, being seen by a special interviewer, and overcome by gratitude that her daughter was healthy again, told the facts at once. She said that the disorder occurred through her daughter falling from a tram. This gave her a great shock, and so affected her nervous system that eventually St. Vitus Dance ensued. She became so bad that it was impossible to hold a knife and fork, and going out of the house was out of the question. This remarkable condition continued for some . time, medical skill being useless, Mrs. Addington declared, WHEN SUDDENLY, AS THE RESULT OF USING CLEMENTS TONIC, a wonderful change took place. She gradually improved, and soon regained her normal condition. Nearly two years liave elapsed since her complete recovery, and all that time she has enjoyed the best of health. "I have great faith in Clements Tonic, and always recommend it," added the mother, "and you can make what use you wish of this." ALL STORES AND CHEMISTS SELL IT EVERYWHERE. Sec you get tho Original Metilclne. Do not accept any "Just as good" remedy. There Is only one real Clements Tonlo.
