From these same warehouses come the ingredients used by our expert chemists in compounding NA-DRU-CO preparations. ETerjr ounce of material used in every NA-DRU-CO article is the best that our skilled buyers can select from the world's markets. We Can Afford to tise only the very best materials becinse, buying in immense quantities for our wholesale trade, we get the best crude dru^ at roclc bottom prices. In our chemical laboratories these raw materials are refined and prepared by expert chemists and subjected to tisid testa both for ttrencth and puritj before being used in N.A'DRU-CO preparations. NA-DRU-CO Cod Liver Oa CompeuiMl. for instance, is made from the best of materials, by our expert chemists, and is consequently the most perfect tonic. NA-DRU-CO Nerroxoae is another striking example of the results our skilled chemists get from good ingredients. We Could Not Afford AL.WAT* LOOM rOM THIS TII*e»B HAflft to use any but the finest and purest materials in each and every N.\-DRU-CO preparation, because on the quality of each depends the future of the whole line. Linked together as they are by the NA-DRU-CO Trade Mark, a single article found nnreliuble would go far to destroy your confidence in all N.\-DRU-CO goods. Ask. your druggist about the quality of the drugs wc snpply to him â€" about our facilities for compound- ing superior medicinal and toilet preparations-r-about our reliability. Go a little further if you like, and ask your phy- sician or your druggist what goes into NA-URU-CO preparations. They can tell you, for we will furnish to any physician or druggist m Canada, on request, a full list of the ingredienu in any NA-DRD-CO preparation. "Moner Back" Furthermore, if any NA-DRU-CO article you buy does not entirely satisfy you, return it and your druggist will refund your money. If your druggist has not the N.\-DRU-CO article you want in stock he can get it for you within two days from our nearest wholesale tyauch.

A large number of the passengers were lan- ds { here on Thursday night, many of them in an exhausted condition. In all. twenty persons were serious- ly, and not less than fifty slightly, injured by the e.\plosion and in the ranic that followed. The Cairnrona sailed on Wed- nesday from London for Portland, Mainei. She carried 900 passengers, for the most part immigrants, and a general cargo. By good luck the steamers Upl.and and Kanawha were close at hand when the Cairn- rona caught fire, and stocxl by and took off several hundred passen- gers and landed them here. Sev- eral of the first-class jiassengers and American cattlemen gave tlirilHng details of the accident. .\ number of women with children in their arms were sitting on a hatch, when suddenly a violent e.xplosiou hurled them to all parts of th deck. Some of them were shock- ingly injured, and one child wa» killed. The hatch was blown to fragments.

Their terror was in- creased by the volume of smoke which poured from the burning hold. The captain and officers made I ir -'ffeetual efforts to calm them, and then signals of distrens woro sen*- up. In the meantime another explosion occurred in the engine 1 room, injuring several of the en- gineers. The Kanawha and Upland steam- ed up ((uickly, and the captain de- cided to transfer all the passen- gers. This was accomplished speedily, but was uccompa; .scandalous scenes.
