1 could not breaths- naturally through

I tried Inhalers and sprays and salves
which gave me lemporary relief and my

MAHI.ffK INTELLIGENCE.
Matter* at Interest to Shipping Men
Geuerallr.
Ths French edition of the new Internat
ional code of signals la now ready, sav*
the London Shipping World. Important
modification* have been Introduced Into
this edition by the addition of six now
flags enr responding in the vowels. A. E. I.
O. U. Y, which brings the tctal numT
of flags up to twenty-seven. Including the
answering pennant. The number of pos
sible signal*, thanks to this addition. Is
much larger than that permitted by the
code of l*6t Bo many signal* can now
be made by combinations of two or three
flags that four-flag combinations are for
the future to be reserved exclusively for
the names of places and ships This has
necessitated anew dictionary f phrases.
In the compiling of which cate has been
taken to modernize the phrases bo-rowel
from the old dictionary, an advantage
which Is so palpable a to need no com
ment from us. In this compile! on the
work of the French editors was b*et
with difficulties. for the British Admiral
ty had made a vocabulary exclusively
English, without regard to the difficulties
which other nations would hive to fa.-e
tn translating the code. And thus not
only was considerable linguistic abll tv
required by the French Iran tailors, but
also diplomatic talent, as certain of the
words and phrases demanded long nego
tiations between the Iso Admiralties be
fore complete agreement could be arrived
ot an to the best manner In which lo ex
press the one l.lea In the two languages.
The new cods will come Inio use on Jan.
1. 1601, but the two codes may he us and
concurrently, says I-e Yacht, until Jan
1. 1902. when the new code must be used
exclusively. When the new code Is em
ployed. the code pennant must 6- hoist'd
with a black ball above It.
The day* of coffin ships ara not yet
over, though, thonk* to the stringent reg
ulations of the Board of Trade, there ire
not now many of them to tw found under
the British flag, says the London ttyreu
and Shipping. Norm .y Is the wor'i of
fender. British vessels that are ftt on y
for th# shlpwrecker’s yard are eometlm:*
sold under the Norwegian flag and ar*
employed In carrying timber as long a*
they hold together. They can gene-ally
manage lo And under*rlte-e, who think
to oomiiensale themselves for th- hei y
risk* they run by quoting very high
rate* of premium Underwriters who
make a spectalty of timber risk* dolor

the risk Is greater, the rat-a are much
