MILK DIET.

If any one wishes to grow feshy,
a pint of milk taken on retiring at
night will cover the scrawniest bones.
In cases of fever and summer com
plant, milk is now given with
excellent results. The idea that
milk is feverish has exploded, and it
is now the physicians great reliance
in bringing through typhoid patients,
or those in too low state to be
nourished by solid food. 1t is a
mistake to crimp the milk pitcher.
Use more milk and less meat. Look
to your milkman; have large-sized,
well-tilled milk pitchers on the table
each meal, and you will have sound
flesh and save doctors bills.

there were deeply Interested in the
operations, and all freely expressed
their great qualification at this first
indication of browning success. The
stem tugs were signalled, and four
of them-the Achilles, the Neptune,
the Prince Alfred, and the Thetis--
got abreast Of each other, ran tow
line out to the bow of the Austral,
and commenced to tug. The ship
went forward slightly, but as her
bow was embedded something like
3ft. in the mud she was not easily
moved. just about this time one of
the forward pumps ceased working,
and the discharge of water was
thereby slackened. At $50 the bow
had lifted PIT. 10in. After some
delay all the pumps were got to
work again, and did good service
for about an hour, when the con-
Meeting pipe of the forward pumps
burst, and pumping operations had
to be suspended for some time in
that part of the vessel. The pumps,
however, had rendered good service
in the meantime. They had been
kept,at easy work during Wednesday
night in order to prevent the water
gaining the ship, and yesterday
morning they reduced the water at
the rate of an inch per minute. Very
great care had to be taken in moving
the ship, and the steamer Commodore
was kept fast to the stern in order
to steady her from Slowing. After
the vessel had moved forward about
100 yards she got too close in shore
and grounded on q bank, but by
towing astern she was pulled off.
Some time afterwards she again got
aground, and was again pulled off,
and the full Juggling power was then
used to get her as high up the bay as
possible. After proceeding about
800 or 400 yards from where she had
sunk, she was grounded at the top of
high water at | O'Clock in shallow
portion of the bay. She is now lying
there perfect safety, and can be
easily aoated again at high tide.
Early in the afternoon a number of
hands were put Oh to remove the
upper portion of the Golfer dam. This
woodwork, together with the pump
ing gear, &C., equals weight of
nearly 800 tons, all above the level
of the upper deck, and the removal
of this is therefore necessary to render
the ship stable as she rises higher out
of the water. The Golfer dam will
be removed to within 3ft. or #. of
the upper deck. and the pumping
gear will be placed lower down in the
ship, A large proportion of the
machinery has been exposed to view,
and on careful examination has been

THE RAISING OF THE AUsTRAL.

raising Of the Austral. Yesterday
the ship was not only floated bodily
out of the muddy bed op which she
has lain for nearly four months, but
she was towed three or four hundred
yards higher up Neutral Bay, and
safely grounded in shallow water.
The Golfer dam is high and dry, the
bows of the ship stand loft. or lift.
out of water at low tide, and the
main deck aft is about level with the
water. The vessel only needs to be
further lightened by additional
pumping, and the removal of the
Golfer dam and of the heavy top
hamper, to enable her to float rs
high as when she was berthcd at the
Circular Quay, and she may then be
towed into dock and put into
condition to make the homeward
voyage. Within a couple of hours
of the renewal of operations yester-
day morning success was placed be-
yond the shadow of doubt, and
before 10 O'Clock the long-hoped-for
and welcome cablegram,
''Austral ahoat and moving" had
been despatched by the local mana
ger to the managing director in
England.
The floating Of the ship was wit
messed by very few people. Up to
Wednesday night there was consi-
derable uncertainty us to when the
Austral would be fairly shifted, and
the general public consequently did
not flock to the scene of operations
until late in the day. Yesterday
morning we notified Mr.. Eldridge's
confident prediction that the ship
would be hoated before 8 a. M, but
this information would not reach
readers sufficiently early to enable
any very great number of people to
be present at the hour named. 1t
was just few minutes before
8 O'Clock when the vessel commenced
to rise forward. Immediately after
wards she was connected with four
powerful tug boats, and at midday

The work was renewed at $50 q.

ut about Z O'Clock. The 20-in.
pump was not available for use. At
that time the ship had list of 2 .
to the starboard; at 1920 one Of the
after pumps was stopped as the
after part of the vessel was rising
too rapidly in comparison with the
forepart. The water was thus al
lowed to run aft while pumping was
still carried on forward. At 7.40

THE ELECTRICAL CHAIR.

in the south part of the city has late
ly invented an electrical chair. He
has good looking daughter who is
considered quite catch. aud she is
the recipient of considerable atten-
ton from the young Washers of the
neighborhood, and the electrical
chair was invented by the old dutfcr
as a kind of time-lock protection
against too many and too prolonged
visits from the la-di-dahs. just be-
fore he goes to bed he carries all the
furniture out of the room but the
grand piano and the electrical chair,
and when the young man comes to
call the girl gives him the chair and
takes the piano-stoo; for herself.
The chair is arranged to go off at
$3.50 p. NJ, and it has been noticed
by the young lady that the masher
generally goes off about that time,
too, or at least, very soon after.
He sits in the electrical chair
building AIR castles and weaving n
web Of rose coored lies a foot and a
half thick, for the sole ediication of
the pork packers daughter and just
about the time he wakes the most
eloquent and glows with warmth,
love and alteration, the electrical
chair commences to get it's work in
on him and he curls up his legs a
moment, and then systematically
shakes them out again. And then
he feels awlully cold, and there is a
pricking sensation running up the
seams Of his pants as through there
were an electric pen trying to turn
him into an autograph album, and
he lists over to one side as though
his cargo has shifted in the hold, and
says "Ouch! Gose! It's funny when
you feel this way" and the girl
looks foolish and red in the face, and
then the youth doubles up and rocks
himself just as though he had a
sudden attack of the cramp collie,
and grows white and tries to edge
off from the Internal machine. Then
he attempts to take his watch out OF
his pocket, but every time he touches
the metal he gets Il bigger shock,
and then he grows red in the face, II
cold sweat starts on him all over the
body, and he leaps into the middle
of the room and bowls. Then he
makes break for the hall and climbs
into his overcoat and goes away with
the sensations of man who has ia
ken two hundred and ten Masonic
degrees iii one evening, and the next
day the young lady writes him
note calling attention to his horrible
condition the night previous and
saying that he need not call on her
again until he has learned Lo let
whisky alone. But one of these fine
