A San Francisco paper has the following with regard to the use of oil fuel on the Alameda and Mariposa, two vessels which for many years ran in the San Francisco mail service to Auckland: "The Oceanic Steamship Company's liner Alameda arrived at San Francisco recently from Honolulu with a big cargo and more than 200 passengers on her outward voyage. The Alameda, which was recently converted into an oil burner, made the passage in 5 days 14 hours and 40 minutes, breaking the best record she ever made as a coalburner. As in the case of the Mariposa, the' new oil burning apparatus has proved a big success, and the record of these two passenger liners promises to do more towards making general the use of liquid fuel than the most eloquent arguments of the most enthusiastic champions of King Coal's successor. Not only has the new fuel very material economic recommendations, but the passengers have learned to appreciate the yacht like cleanliness now possible at all times and on all parts of the oil burning steamship." A piece of flannel damped with Chamberlain's Pain Balm and bound to the affected parts is better than any plaster for lame back or pain in the side or chest. Chamberlain's Pain Balm is a linimeut that has no superior. One application gives relief,. Try it A, Manoy sells it. Some interest (says the Wellington correspondent of- the Hawkes Bay Herald) is already being taken in the approaching Licensing Committee meetings. It is understood that the Newtown committee will refuse all licenses. It will be remembered that Prohibition was carried in this district, but the poll was subsequently upset by a decision of the stipendary mao-is-trate. In many of the hotels in the city there are.a large number of so-called-private bars and'dives. The new committee would no doubt like to close many of these, but it is understood that they are doubtful of their power to do so. One hotel has no fewer than twelve bars in it. Acknowledging a vote or confidence at Sydney, Sir Edmund Barton "thanked the reputable portion of the citizens of Sydney for their confidence, and thanked the Mfieko-uprde for their enmity." Much cheering and hooting followed. Hoarsenss in a child that is subject to croup is a sure indication of the approach of the disease. If Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is given as soon as the child becomes hoarse, or even after the cronpy cough has appeared, it will prevent the attack. It alway- cures and cures quickly A, Manoy sells it. For Children's Hacking Cough at [night take Wood's Great Peppermint Cure, Is 6d and 2s 6d.
