Washington. The present golden
era for American shipping, resulting
from great demand for ocean tonnage,
nnd the extraordinary profits that have
been made In our carrying trade by
sea, have been shown by research to
be a recurrence of similar conditions
that have prevailed three times before
In the history of the American mer
chant marine.
Whenever there has been any extraor
dinary condition to change political
or economic balances In this or other
great countries, prosperity for shipping
has followed, say experts of the Unit
ed States shipping board.
In proof of this they point to the
great expansion of our foreign trade
following both the Revolutionary war
unci the War of 1812, by which the
merchants of New York and New Eng
lund were enriched, and also the for
tunes made by American ship owners
following the Mexican war, with Its
resulting great rush of pioneers to
Ihe new gold state of California.
None of the stories of fabulous earn
ings of vessels In the merchant marine
In the first three years of the present
war before the shipping board began
regulating freight charges at sea are
more Interesting than those of the
wealth won by ships owned In old
Salem, Muss., In the period In which
their owners were developing Ameri
can trade with distant parts of the
earth, following both peace treaties
with England.
In 1709 (he ship Mt. Vernon of
Salem made a profit of $100,000, four
times her grlglnul cost, on a single
round trip to China, going out with
sugar, and returning via the Mediter
ranean, where she took on silks nnd
wines for the American market.
The owner of the Mt. Vernon, Ellas
Musket Derby, died while she was on
this voyage and left an estate valued
at $1,000,000, the largest American
fortune to that time.
Salem captains were ever on the
alert for new ventures In those days
of rich profits. When In 1705 Capt.
Jonathan Carncs of Salem beard by
way of gossip when ashore at Barce
lona, Spain, that pepper grew wild on
the coasts of 'Sumatra, he noted the
Information carefully. On his arrival
home lie Imparted It to Jonathan Peele,
a Salem merchant, who forthwith fit
ted out the schooner Rajah, and dis
patched her to Sumatra.
The Itajnh brought back the first full
cargo of pepper to be landed In Amer
ica, and her owner reaped the tidy
profit from lis sale of 700 per cent on
his investment,
Certain ships, known for their lucky
voyages, made fortune's for their own
ers. One famous In the annals of that
period was the ship George known us
Ihe "Salem frigate" which ninde regu
lar voyages to Ihe East Indies for 22
years, accomplishing 21 voyages in all,
and earned a fortune for George Pea
body, afterward famous as u million
aire philanthropist.
The value of her cargoes may be
Judged In (bat In her 22 years of active
existence there was paid on them at
the Salem customhouse, in import
duties, not less than $000,000.
The Oeorge was a tiny ship, as ves
sels go nowadays, being only 114 feet
long, yet she proved a shining example
lu other ways of Ihe glories of the
curly American merchant marine. She
bad the reputation of carrying the
most Intelligent crews to be found any
where except possibly on certain oth
er American ships and was famed for
tho number of men who graduated
from her forecastle to the quarter
deck.
When she sailed on her first voyage
to India, in 1818, hardly u man In her
crew was twenty-one years old, yet
each wns an experienced seaman, and
nearly every one was a navigator.
Of the sailors who served on her In
her long and prosperous career, 45 be
oame captains, 20 chief mates, and six
sevend mates. Thomas M. Saunders,
who served on her us a boy, passeil
through every grade of ordinary and
able seajnan, third, second and chief
malt nnd ultimately became bet cup
tain. The case of the Oeorge has been
cited as an example of tile beneflelul
effect of continued prosperity on 11 na
tion's merchant marine,
Not less than 7,000 men signed arti
cles In the counting room of Joseph
Peiilnnly to man his Beet, the various
craft which made IIS voyages to Cal
cutta, 17 to Canton, ,'12 to Sumatra, 47
to St. Petersburg and 111) to other Eu
ropean ports.
In the Inter period of the so-called
clipper ship era of the merchant ma
rine, great profits were made by Amer
ican ships at n time when the vessels
of other nations were grubbing for
Charter!, This was due to the superior
speed of the American vessels.
The ltnlnbow, the first distinctly
Clipper ship built anywhere, clearcfl
200 per cent profit on her first voyage
to China, In 1846.
The Oriental, an American clipper
built In New York in 1849, to compete
with the English tea ships, earned
$48,000 In freight money on her firs!
cargo of tea from Hong-Kong to Lon
don. Her cost was $70,000.
In the gold rush to California, In
1849 and 1850, many ships earned more
than their value In a single voyage.
Demand for space regulated the charge
for carrying freight, as It does now,
and the top price reached was $60 a
ton.
At this rate the ship Samuel Rus
sell earned $72,000 In freight money
on one voyage more than her cost.
Some of the charters made In the
earlier period of the war for Amerl
can vessels were on such a liberal
basis that the freight money for a
single voyage to Archangel, for exam
ple, paid for the ship making the voy
nge, a condition to be looked for, say
the experts, In times of abnormal de
mand for cargo space.

Food Problem
By Dr. Samuel G. Dixon
Commissioner of Health oi Pennsylvania
Most of our foodstuffs are made up
of different constituents. A potato Is
largely composed
of starch, whereas
beefsteak Is large
ly composed of ni
trogen or protein.
Starch represents
so many heat-producing
units, and
beefsteak likewise
produces Its own
quota.
This is so when
you consider the
matter from a lab
oratory standpoint, but if you made n
lest of the surae values by feeding
these foods to human beings you would
find the values varied greatly because
of the variations of the human or or
ganic machinery which handled them.
Starch, for Instance, In the cases of
some Individuals, passes through the
digestive system without the body as
slinllntlng it and obtaining the addition
of its bent units. In the cases of other
Individuals, the same thing would hap
pen with beefsteak.
For this reason we must remember,
wdien advising foodstuff for a commu
nity, that what Is one man's meat Is
another man's poison. Thus It be
hooves those who have the power to
regulate foodstuffs for n community to
be liberal enough In drawing up their
lists to meet the demands of the differ
ent capabilities of the digestive system
of the different Individuals. In other
words, one capable of making a ration
al selection must havo a thorough
knowledge of the physiology of food
stuffs. The people of the state of Pennsyl
vania eat too much potato. The large
proportion of starch In the composition
of Ibis vegetable produces a catarrhal
condition of the digestive tract, which
Interferes with digestion and leaves the
patient. Insufficiently nourished, event
ually over a long series of years pro
ducing starvation.
Meat, as a rule, Is also overeaten by
Pennsylvanlani. Just now, however,
during the tension of the war, we need
more meat I ban usual.
It should also be kept in mind that
meat w ill be more easily produced dur
ing the war than will vegetables, for
our trouble will be the want of male
help to carry out the continuous de
mands occasioned by the cultivation of
vegetables during all stages from
planting to gathering, whereas cattle
can In great measure take care of
themselves, nnd what human help Is
required need not be of the highest de
velopment, either physical or mental.

No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make a mistake by
flushing the kidneys occasionally, says
a well-known authority. Meat forms
uric acid which clogs the kidney pores
so they sluggishly filter or strain only
part of the waste and poisons from
the blood, then you get sick. Nearly
all rheumatism, headaches, liver trou
ble, nervousness, constipation, dizzi
ness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders
come from sluggish kidneys.

the kidneys or your back hurts, or If
the urine is cloudy, oftenslve, full of

with llthla and has been used for
generations to flush clogged kidneys
and stimulate them to activity, also
to neutralize the acids In urine so It
no longer causes Irritation, thus end
ing bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is Inexpensive and can

cessitates tne employment of some
other method of selection. In the
breeding of high producing animals
through several generations It has
been observed that there are certain
characteristics of the conformation
which are correlated with large pro

namely: (1) Extreme angular form,
carrying no surplus flesh, but In good
physical condition. (2) Prominent de

The symmetrical development of the
barrel with large capacity. After one
becomes familiar with these external
characteristics it Is possible to select
cows producing 300 pounds of fat per
year from those producing 150 pounds.
The difficulty comes In picking the ani
mal that will produce 500 pounds of
fat per year compared to the one pro
ducing 400 pounds.
The selection of animals by this
method Is rather uncertain. Until rec

Utilization of Alfalfa or Clover Partly
Solves Dairyman's Prob
lem of Feed.
(By G. E. WEAVER, University Farm,
St. Paul, Minn.)
One hundred and seventy-five pounds
of good alfalfa or clover hay Is worth
as much as 100 pounds of the ordinary
grain feeds. With the present prices
for feeds ranging from $25 a ton for
bran to $85 per ton for corn, the aver
age cost for 100 pounds of grain is
about $2.75. The cost of Its food
equivalent in the form of 175 pounds
of legume hay is $2.15. This much hay
will produce 200 pounds of milk and
effect a saving In feed cost of 60 cents,
which Is at the rate of 30 cents for
each hundred pounds.
The utilization of such hay partly
solves the dairyman's problem In these
days of high feed cost and milk Investigations.

Here's Grandmother's Recipe to
Darken and Heautify
Faded Hair.
That beautiful, even shade of dark.
glossy hair can only be had by brew
ing a mixture of Sage Tea and Sul
phur. Your hair is your charm. It
makes or mars the face. When it
fades, turns gray or streaked, Just an
application or two of Sage and Sul-
phur enhances its appearance a hun
dredfold.
Don't bother to prepare the mix
ture; you can get this famous old re
cipe improved by the addition of other
Ingredients for 60 cents a large bottle,
all ready for use. It is called Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound. This
can always be depended upon to bring
back the natural color and lustre oi
your hair.
Everybody uses "Wyeth's" Sare and
Sulphur Compound now because it
darkens so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell It has been applied.
You simply dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
the hair, taking one small strand at
time; by mornine the Erav hair has
disappeared, and after another appli
cation It becomes beautifully dark and
appears glossy and lustrous. This
ready-to-use preparation is a delleht-
ful toilet requisite for those who de
sire dark hair and a youthful appear
ance. It Is not Intended for the cure.
