McAIlister Home Damaged

/, Mrs: Herbert Levy and Mrs. Hunt
occupied the lower section of the
house. In the club apartment live
Dr. II. w. Allen, p. P. Paschel. r. B.
henderson Helyer Duprey, Nj. Wescot
ana a. = Holmes. Only three of the
men were III the apartments at the
time of the fire. The loss was COM
plete.
On the left of the We'll house, where
the fire started, is the residence of E.
McAllfster, who with his family is in
Europe. Though this house is built
close up to the We'll house it was but
partially burned Hall McAfIister yes-
terday estimated the damage at $1,000
From the Mccarthy apartments the
nre leaped two intervening houses be-
longing to the Flora Ellons estate and
iighted the dry roof shingles of the
Iona apartments. Most of the inmates
or these apartments were in the street
at the time watching the fire at the
Mccarthy apartments
Boy Shouts for Help
The Alta Iona apartments are in
charge of Mrs. d. W. James. In an
upper room her husband d. w. James,
man past 20 and critically ILL., lay un-
conscious of his danger. Suddenly he
heard the cracking of the flames and
soon the heat, breaking through the
smoke began coming in when Thomas
Lucy, boy recently from the Youths
DIRECTORY, came running in. He forced
the windows open and cried out for
help.
James was carried from the room suf-
fering acutely. So serious did his con-
ditlon become as result of the awful
experience through which he passed
that he was hurried to the emergency
hospital for treatment.
This was the means of notifying
other inmates of the house now out in
the street of the spread of the fire to
their home. In the house were Mrs W.
5. Townsend, Mr.. Hutchinson and fam
lily, w. K. Smith, Miss Freda Smith,
Mrs. Nellie Bennett, DR. and Mrs. Dam
iel Lustic. Mrs. Edward Burns and Miss
Marguerite Burns. The property be-
longs to the Walker estate.
Firemen Praised
The Well house is the property of
Lea A. Son. The loss is complete The
upper part of the Mccarthy apartments
was destroyed while the lower sections
were partly damag ged by fire and water.
Iona were burned The fire in this
building was brought under control
more quickly, as the fremen were on
the scene when it started.
Owing to fire at the Pacific Mail
dock some of the engines were delayed
Hall McAllister spoke highly of the
work of the fire department in coping
with the situation.

Curing Catarrh
Accept Our Advice and Try
This Remedy at Our
Risk.

Catarrh is a disease of the mucous
membrane. The mucous membrane is,
one may say, the interior lining of the
body Catarrh therefore may exist in
any part of the system
When the catarrhal poison attacks
the mucous membrane, Inflammation
ture fails to throw off the accumulat-
ed poisons. The organ which has been
afflicted ceases to perform its proper
function as nature intended it should.
The result is, complication upon com
plication, which may lead to other
even more serious affections.
We honestly believe Rexall Mucu-
Tone will do wonders toward over
coming catarrh. 1t is made from the
prescription Of an eminent physician
who made long study of catarrh and
his great success with this remedy was
an enviable one.
We want you If you are a sufferer
from catarrh in any form. to give
Use 1t with regularity and persistence
for a reasonable time. then If you are
not satisfied, come back and tell us
and without question or formality we
will hand back to you every cent you
paid us. This is certainly the faires-
offer that anyone could make and
should attest our sincerity of purpose
