A London, Eng., despatch says; -.One
of the most disastrous fires -in Lon-
don's history since the great fire of
1000, broke out in a large block of
buildings lying eastward oC Alders-
gate street, and between that thor-
oughfare and Red Cross street, just
after one o'clock on Friday afternoon,
The flames were fanned by, a strong
wind, and wore fed by highly Inflam-
mable stocks of fancy goods, and flimsy
dress materials oC all descriptions,
crowding every floor of six -storey
buildings in the old streets, in view of
the coming Christmas trade, Conse-
quently the conflagration gained head-
way with sttrprising rapidity and was
scop far beyond any possibility of be-
ing checked by the few, engines early
on the spot. For four hours anda half
the flames had their' own' way, and it
was only atter more tban a hundred
engines had worked an hour. that the
chief of the fire brigade sent out the
signal tbat the fire was under control.
This was at 5.45 p.m. When the good
news became known nearly 50 ware-
houses and a dozen or, more minor
structnres had either vanished or re-
mained only in blackened walls, a chaos
of fallen girders, and smoking piles of
bricks and stone,
SCENE OF THE OUTBREAK.
5
•
.l:tamsell street was the scene of the
outbreak of the fire, which was due to
an explosion in connection witb a gas
engine on the premises of 'Waller,
Brown & Company, mantle manufac-
turers, et No. 90 an that thoroughfare.
Their large factory was crowded with
girls when the fire broke out, and in-
stantly became the scene of a panic,
the frightened operatives, with many
screams, rushing to the roof of the
building, then recrossing to other build-
ings, and so effecting their escape, while
the flames were pouring out of the
basement, In ]ess than a quarter of
au hour the flames had enveloped the
adjoining warehouses, and thence they
leaped across the street to an enormous
paper warehouse, which was fully
alight in less than ten minutes. •
This time it was evident to the fire-
men that they were taco to face with a
great disaster, and a general alarm was
sent out. Then from all the fire sta-
tions, even from those quite five miles
from the scene of the disaster, engines
were hurrying to the spot, and the
police gathered about the neighbour-
hood in great force. This display of
strength upon the part of the police
was required, as the crowd, swelling
in size every moment, soon numbered
tens of thousands, and the firemen re-
quired every possible freedom of ac-
tion, as their fight was one of great
difficulty owing to the narrowness of
the
OLD CROOKED STREETS.
which are the feature of that part of
London, combined with the height of
the warehouses, which cut off the fire -
ellen from all fair chance of confining
the outbreak. Firemen had repeatedly
to be rescued by the comrades by the
aid of the fire escapes from buildings
which had caught fire after the firemen
had mounted to their roofs to fight the
Mimes in adjoining structures.
Tho rescue of operatives by the fire-
men, the hurrying of hosts of clerks
who were trying to save hooks and
valuable papers from the fire, and the
rushing here and there of many em-
tooplaceses who
of were
attemptingcarry
or other valuables, added to the con-
fusion+. Then, again, the heat was so
terrific 'that several firemen were
obliged to direct their operations under
showers of teeter slowly poured upon
them. But in spite of the exertions of
the firemen tine fire crept on very
steadily, until Nichols square, which is
situated at the far end of ]lamsell
street, was reached. Al a little after
2 o'clock a dozen hose pipes with a 12 -
foot spread poured water into the blaze
from an opposite toot from, the street
below, and from the burning premises
themselves, but 11 did not seem to have

PRACTICAL NOTES.
Verse 1. if here does not express
doubt but elands for "as" or "since,"
to emphasize the affirmation. Paul ex-
pected soon to return to the Philip-
pians. With pleasure he thought of
their hearty joy et again meeting hint.
Phil, 1, 20. Therefore, Because of this
happy prospect of the renewal of in-
timate associations he pleads that their
affectionate joy should find expression
in holy deeds. Consolation in Christ
The Revised Version chunges this to
"comfort in Christ." Better still
would be "exhortation." By his holy
life, by his conflict with evil, by his
patience in suffering, Christ constant-
ly exhorts us. Cbmfort of love. The con-
solation of tenderness and affection-
ate compassion, Fellowship of the Spir-
it. etornmunion with God, who is a
Spirit, and who, if worshipped at. all,
must be worshiped in spirit and truth,
must lie 'worshipped in spirit and in
truth, and who regards as the most
acceptable human worship such inti-
mate communion of suet its lovers Have
with each other; a fellowship) so Len-
a friend "so a Christian may talkwith
a friend" 13o a Christian can talk with
God, Such u fellowship binds Christians
close to each other. Bowels of mercies.
Tendornesses and compassions; yearn-
ing emotions: In antique times bow-
els were regarded as the seat of mercy
and affection, much as the heart is
now. .
2. Fulfil ye my joy. We have spoken
of the joy of the Philippians; Paul's
joy will be fulfilled by the knowledge
that they bre perfectly developed in
these Christian graces and virtues,
"Fulfil " means " make full." The
Philippians were a source of constant
joy to Paul; his epistle to them has
been fitly called a love letter, for in
very few letters of the same brevity
are there to be found so
many endearing phrases. The third
verse of the first chapter—"I thank
my 0,04 upon every remembrance of
you"—sounds the keynote of the epist
Ile. Beet, much as he loved them and
proud as he was of them, he could not
help observing that "they did not walk
in perfect unity." if now they will
so walk his joy will be "fulfilled,"
filled full, completed, jleing of one ac-
cord. 3tarmonized. Of one mind. .A
unit in sentiment, 'Chrysostom ex-
plains Paul's tautology bene by say-
ing, "Ho repeats himself l:)ecause of
his exceeding great earnestness."
3. Let 'nothing be done throtigh
strife, "Never act from separate in-
terests;" have no factions; entertain no
thought of self-seeking or vainglory.
Lowliness of mind. '1,be opposite of all
pride, whether of family, wealth, learn -
leg, or ability. Let each esteem oth-
er bettor thau themselves, "Lowliness
of mind." will lead to this, for if one is
honest in self -judgment, and elta cita-
ble i.e. judgment of others, one will
push his Christian neighbor toward su-
perior positiolns rather than to seek
them for one's self.
4. Look not. Do not attentitvely gaze;
aim not: ,Every man on his own
th(.ngs. Be not self-centred. "Do no-
thing :through 'self-interest in the
things of Gore" But every man also
on the thieve of others. Another re-
petiitiun:, . Strife in the Philippian

Nen and Women in all Walks of Life Tell of the Remarkable
Cures Wrought by South American Nervine Tonic.
SIX DOSES ?RLL CONVINCE THE MOST INCI EDULOU9.
EDITOR COLWELL, 01
Newspaper edi*ors are almost as
sceptical as the average physician on
the subject of new remedies for sick
people. Nothing short of a series of
moat remarkable and well authenti-
cated cures will incline either an
editor or a doctor to seriously consider
the merits honestly olaimed for s.
medicine.
Hundreds of testimonials of won-
derful recoveries wrought with the
Great South American Nervine Tonic
were received from men and women
all over the country betore physicians
began to prescribe this great remedy
is chronic cases of dyspepsia, in-
digestion, nervous prostration, sick
headache, and as a tonic for build-
ing up systems sapped of vitality
through protracted spells of sick-
ness.
During his experience of nearly a
quarter of a century as a newspaper
publisher in Paris, Ont„ Editor Col-
well, of The Paris Review, has pub-
lished hundreds of columns of paid
medicine advertisements, and, no
doubt, printed many a gracefully -
worded pull' for his patrons as a
matter of business, but in only a
single instance, and that one warrant-
ed by his own pe•sonal experience,
bas lie given a testimonial over his
own sirnaturo. No other remedy

tried in vain.
n I was prostrated with a particu-
larly severe attack of ' La Grippe,'”
says Mr, Colwell, ' and could find no
relief from the intense pains and dia-
tress of the malady. I suffered day
and night. The doctors did not help
me, and I tried a number of medi-
cines, but without relief. About this
time I was advised to try the South
American Nervine Tonic, Its effects
were instantaneous. The first dose E
took relieved me. I improved rapidly
and grew stronger every day. 'Your
Nervine Tonic cured me in a single
week."
The South American Nervine
Tonic rebuilds the life forces by its
direct action on the nerves and the
nerve centres, and it is this notable-
feature

feature which distinguishes it from
every other remedy in existence. The
most eminent medical authorities now
concede that fully two-thirds ofall the
physical ailments of humanity arise
from exhaustion of the nerve forces.
The South American Nervine Tonic
acting direct upon the nerve centres
and nerve tissues instantaneously
supplies them with the true nourish-
ment required, and that is why ito
invigorating effects upon the whole
system are always felt immediately'„
For all nervous diseases, for general
