S25, 900 AWARD
BY THE COURT
Admiralty Praises the Cour-
age Of Three
Sailors

London, Feb 2.-Three American sail
ors, Robert Ferguson, Thomas WEIGH ano
John Smith, have received an award OF
$4,000 in the admiralty court for saving
the American tug Vigilant, valued at
100000, in the channel in October, 1916
The president of the court in his decision
used these terms of the Americans:
Courage, fine spirit, absence of all ply
steal fear"
The tug, bound from New York to
Bristol, was virtually foundered in a
gale off the coast of Ireland. The master
and crew were taken off by the steam
ship Ryndam "We are not yet tired OF
life" they declared.
When Ferguson, the second mate, re-
fused to abandon the tug Welch, an oil
er, and Smith, a fireman, volunteered to
remain with him. Ferguson went to the
wheel, Weleh to the engineroom, while
Smith kept the fires roaring.
Later patrol boat sighted the tug,
but was unable to give assistance, for
the Vigilant bucked and kicked aside all
proffers of help. She continually shipped
heavy seas which did damage aft, jam
ming her steering gear so the port helm
could not be used. Her electric light APP
paratus was gone. An attempt to heave
the tug to head the wind resulted in her
being thrown ON her beam ends, and
eventually she was attempting sternway
in sort of spiral course.
When the weather moderated the Wig.
liant made Bantry Bay, narrowly escaped
on reef and finally arrived at
Beech Haven with only two tons of coal
in her bunkers.
By the direction of the admiralty court
Ferguson receives f2,500 and the others
81 $50 each, the money to be paid into
court in seven days.

RED BLOOD AND BIG MUSCLE

The full-blooded man or woman
usually has large muscles. Pale peo-
pie are ordinarily thin; their muscles
are small.
Muscles are red not only because of
the blood in them but because they
contain hemoglobin, the same substance
that gives the red color to the blood.
And it is this hemoglobin that carries
oxygen in the blood and stores it up in
the muscles.
Well oxidized blood is necessary If
we would have strong muscles. In fact
oxygen is the great supporter of life.
Oxygen is used up when we work.
When a get of muscles are active, as
those OF the back when we lift some
thing, their oxygen is used and unless
the blood is rich and red with oxygen
bearing hemoglobin those muscles ache.
If you are pale and your back aches
don't blame your kidneys. Try build
ing up the blood with DR.. Williams
Pink Pills. These pills cause an in
crease of hemoglobin in the blood and
30 enable it to carry more oxygen.
There is renewed life and ambition.
Everywhere that the new blood goes it
carries vigor and this tonic treatment
is the one thing that most rundown,
debilitated people need.
