" EFFECTIVE TORPEDOES.
Th Improvement Most Ndd Now
In Naval Warfare.
The next great improvement lo na
val warfare will be on tue Hues of
ways and means of repeating what the
Romans did waya uud meana of
charging upon and grappling wltb the
mighty war vewwla of an enemy to
Ink them wltb the abort a word of
high explosives.
There la no cue thing so much need
ed In naval warfare at the present
time as a more efficient means of
reaching battleships and cruisers with
a sufficient quantity of high explosives
for their destruction. In other words,
there la a more imperative demand for
Improvements In torpedoes and tor
pedo boats than In any other branch
of the naval service. The effective
range of the modern high power gun
la now about five miles, and it la the
range of the guns that determines the
distance between the lines of battle of
modern fleets, and the fleet wltb guns
of the longest range has the opposing
fleet at Its mercy.
A little while ago the automobile
torpedo was thought to be a valuable
adjunct to the armament of the mod
ern battleship, but the range of the
guns has now been so Increased that
such torpedoes become a useless In
cum bra nee because of the shortness
of their range, notwithstanding the
fact that their manufacturers have
done everything possible to perfect
them and to Increaso their sieed and
range. Their range Is necessarily lim
ited to that attulnable by the charge
of compressed air they are capable of
carrying.
During the past few years the pres
sure of the air has been Increased from
1,800 pounds to the square Inch to 2,250
pounds to the square Inch and the
weight of air from 00 pounds to 130
In the eighteen Inch tonedo, and still
the maximum range of the eighteen
Inch torpedo Is only from 8,000 to 8.500
yards, practically about one-third of
the rnn? of tbo blgb power guns which
determine the distance apart of the
lines of battle, and the maximum rate
of speed of thle torpedo Is about 85
knots. Hudson Maxim In Metropoli

How to Cure n Cold,
Ho as careful aB you enn you will

liability, one that has an established
reputation, ono that is certain to ef
fect a quick cure. Such n medicine
Is Chamberlain's Cough Keuunly. It
hns gained a world wldo reputation
by Us remarkablo cures of this most
common ailment. It acts on nature's
plan, relieves the lungs, aids expec
toration, opens tbe secretions nnd
aids nature lu restoring the system to
a healthy condition. During tbe many
years In which It has been In general
use we have yet to learn of a single
caso of cold or attack of the grip
having resulted lu pneumonia when
this remedy was used, which shows
conclusively thnt It is a certain pre
ventive of that dangerous disease.
