One such window fell inward to the
floor of room in the Murray Hill dis

Five minutes later Patria LAID ner
power boat alongside a schooner that
lay moored to the northernmost Of the
Claiming docks. Ryley swarmed up
over the schooner's side and made fast
the painter-to find, when he turned,
Patria at his elbow.
"You stay here, MISS" he shouted,
to make himself heard above the din
Of the conflagration. 'Ill find Captain
Parr If he's here to be found, and
bring him back to you"
But when he ran up the gangplank
to the dock, Patria was by his side.
Bowling to her indomitable courage, he
made no more protest, but hurried on
with her into the heart of that furnace
which yawned for them ashore.
1t was as If the earth itself had
flowered in devastating flame.
Following the spur line of rails that
ran from the dock to the shore, they
fought their way on, scorched by flame
deluged with sparks, deafened with
the incessant detonation of shells en-
plOding in burning freight cars, dazzled
to blindness.
Eventually, on the verge Of abandon
ing their efforts as wholly hopeless.
they stumbled across the body of Don
aid prone between two lines of rails,
beside the ruins of a freight car al
ready consumed to it's trucks.
Insensible when they lifted him up
and, with one of his arms across
shoulder of each, they dragged him
back toward the water; he came to
shaken Donald, but in no way serious
ly injured.
Thereafter he did his part like the
man he was, not only taking care OF
himself, but aiding the failing efforts
of Patria to keep moving. The girl was
half fainting with fatigue and hard
ship. She dragged on the arm that
Donald had wound round her like
thing inanimate.
In some manner. of which none re-
talned coherent understanding -
through some miracle-the three re-
gained the dock and staggered down 1t
to the schooner.
Sparks flying on the night wind had
already set fire to the vessel. To re-
gain the launch, their one hope Of es-
cape, they had to cross a deck that
spewed smoke from every seam
where it was not already aflame.
Leaving Donald to care for PatriA,
Ryley threw himself on ahead to un.
moor the power boat.
AS he did so, and swung round TO
give aid If need be, the deck between
him and those two laundering figures
caved in and sheet of flame shot up.
With a groan the detective dropped
over the side into the boat and pushed
off.
At little distance he looked back.
and cried out in wonder to see the fig-
ures Of Donald and Patria half way up
the foremast--the hungry flames leap
ing savagely for their feet.
With infinite exertion. slowly they
climbed on and on, dogged ever by the
flames.
A slight explosion sounded In the
hold Of the schooner. The flames shot
higher. The mast rocked, tottered,
swayed like broken reed, and crashed
over the side, carrying the lovers With

Simple Laxative Remedy
Best for Constipation
Or. CaIdweirs Syrup Pepsin Gave
Satisfaction When Nothing
Else Would

Nearly every one, at one time or an
other, suffers from constipation, or in
active bowels, and one Of the few con-
illusions upon which the doctors agree
is that regularity of the bowels is an
essential to good health.
In the family medicine chest Of most
well-ordered households will be found
one or more of the various remedies
recommended for the relief Of consti-
patton. In the majority Of homes to-
day are combination of simple laxa-
tive herbs with pepsin known as DR..
CaldweH's Syrup Pepsin is recognized
as the standard laxative. Druggists
everywhere report a constantly in
~creasing demand for this splendid
remedy which is sold for fifty cents a

that he found DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin the most effective remedy for
constipation he had ever used and that

Thousands Have Discovered DR.,
Edwards Olive Tablets are
q Harmless Substitute

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the sub.
stitute for calomel-are a mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. They are the re-
suit of DR.. Edwards determination not
to treat liver and bowel complaints with
calomel His efforts to Danish it brought
out these little olivc-colored tablets.
These pleasant little tablets do the
good tina. calomel does, but have no bad
after effects. They don't injure the
teeth like strong liquids or catomel.
They take hold OF the trouble and
quickly correct it. Why cure the liver
at the expense of the teeth? Calomel
sometimes plays havoc with the gums.
So do strong liquids. 1t is best not to
take caicmel, but to let DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets take its place.

Bodily Housekeeping
(BY SAMUEL HAMILTON, MD

The subject of drinking water with
meals has been misunderstood.
In recent years investigation by means
of X-rays, the observations of scientists
such as Cannon, Grutzner, Pavlov, Fow-
Ter, Hawk, prove that an abundance OF
water taken during digestion is necessary
in good bodily housekeeping. Drink
plenty Of water with each meal. Do not
drink ice-water at any time.
If your kidneys are sick, or you suffer
with lumbago or rheumatism at times,
pain in the back or back of the neck, take
Anuric double strength) before meals.
This can be found at any good drug store.
Therefore my advice to young or old is,
always drink plenty Of pure water. And
for long life, occasionally take tablets Of
Anuric three or four times day.
1t is simply wonderful how quickly
Anuric acts-much more potent than
ithia. You will find it dissolves uric
acid as water does sugar. &c..

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE gov
eminent began today to feel the in
sistent need for some sort OF action
soon to open a way for movement OF
shipping now held up in American
ports by suspension of sailings on ac-
count Of the German submarine CAM
paign.
Reports on the accommodating freight
now are reaching officials regularly.
and although the situation is not yet
regarded as serious, it is apparent
that American industries will be ef-
'ected unless ocean shipping starts
moving before long.
At the present state Of development
Of the German-American situation,
attention is centered on President
Wilson by the growing belief that he
will take no step, even to the furnish
Ing of defensive armament to mer-
chant ships without first consulting
congress. Hourly interest is becom-
ing keencr as to whether the presi-
dent will do this, and when.
