One of the worst of these is earache.
This may be effectively relieved by
applying sponges, wrung out of hot

a few drops of heated oil mixed with
Iaudanum into the ear. This should
bring instant relief.
Physical culture exercises must be
taken regularly II good results are ex'

Survivors Tell Horrible Tale.

Liverpool, Nov. ia narrowing
tale of suffering at sea is told by
three OF the six survivors of the crew
of the "Criccieth Castle" recently
lost in the South Atlantic. They are
in hospital here, having been brought
to Liverpool from the Falkland Is
lands by the Pacific liner "Oravia."
When the vessel began to sink,
from a leak, the lifeboat and gig
were launched. The gig, with seven
on board, has never been heard from.
In the lifeboat were the captain, his
wife and SON, and fourteen others.
Four died the same night and were
buried at sea. The survivors had to
row 200 miles before they could
hope to sight land. One of the sail
composed a stirring chorus which
they sang constantly to keep up their
spirits. They had in the boat only
two kegs Of water, n bag of bread,
and a half dozen cans of meat.
