1t is natural logic to conclude

OF COP LIVER OIL has power
to prevent Consumption, it surely
is able to cure these lesser emer-

is delightful flavor of Wild

But the purest Norwegian Cod

1t is great blood enricher. Best
of all it is natural food that in its
stomachic effects actually assists
its own assimilation.

Signals at Sea.

The international code Of signals was
prepared and first published in April,
1857, in accordance with the views and
recommendations Of committee ap-
pointed by tho board of trade. The code
is described as consisting Of IS flags
namely, one burgee, four pennants and
10 square flags, and in addition an IAN
swering pennant," which is displayed
when the message is completed and I'M
derstood. The IL flags represent the
consonants Of the alphabet, and it is by
a combination of two, three or four Of
these flags hung perpendicularly to each
other that arbitrary signs are made
which represent words and sentences of
the same Specification in all languages.
Each signal has throughout the code but
one Specification. A signal is always
made in zone hoist" in one place.
The nature of the signals is indicated
by the number Of flags hoisted, whether
two, three or four together. Signals Of
two flags relate to danger or distress;
signals Of three flags to general subjects
of inquiry or communication, including
latitude, longitude and time signals, and
signals with four flags relate TO names.
Single flags are not used in code signals,
with the exception Of ives and mo" and
answering" remnants. The flags to DO
hoisted at one time never exceed four.
1t is an interesting mathematical fact
that, with IS variously colored flags. and
never using more than four at time, no
fewer than 1862 distinct signals can be
given. -Pears0n's Weekly.

Mr.. Howells, always bold in using
new words, accepts fake as good enough
for him and prints 1t in "The Quality of
