From the Atua it wan difficult to make out the flags, and to those On the bigger boat it seemed there were three flying. No one realised they were toeing chased until a shot !<&hie. It appeared to psj»s right overhead, and plunged into the sea. about 100 yards ahead, co it seemed. The Atua promptly pulled up, and the chaw, which was only a chase as far as the destroyer woe concerned, wa* over. There was an exchange of questions and answers when the destroyer drew up. All being well, the Atua continued her voyage to Levukft. i The recent epidemics of smallpox and diphtheria, would, 6ertainly hot hove been so extensive if it were more generally known that disthfecttdh of the mouth protects from all ailments contracted ! through the throat and respiratory tract.
