NEW SPORT ON SUBMARINES Fishing With Baited Llnet It Now Employed to Relieve the Tedium of the Life. Fishing with Inverted lines from the decks of American submarines Is the newest pastime ainong members of their crews operating In the Pacific ocean from the Los Angeles submarine base, says the I'opular Mechanics .Magazine. The boats make frequent practice trips between I.os Angeles and Santa Catullna Islnnd. The water In this area averages about 80 feet In depth, and Is one of the finest fishing grounds of the Pacific coast. Frequently the boats dive to the bot tom, and He there with their motors shut olT while practicing submarine signaling, torpedo-tube routine and the like. The upside-down fishing Is done In a very simple manner. Prior to making n dive the men arrange their lines on the deck rails of the submarine. The hooks are balled and are strung out on the decks to be carried upward when the boat dives, by a float at tached near the hook. Since any fisli that takes the bait can not be removed until the boat comes to the surface, the lines are fastened to the deck rail by coll springs. This practically eliminates the chance of losing the fish by Its breaking the line, or tearing the hook out of lis mouth. and t .1 k i I.. jm :.

SHRINE'S MEANING NOT PLAIN Erected to the Memory of J.ipanew Maid, But Its Precise Idea Hardly Apparent. One of the pretty l,ni-s ,,f j i,(,ari Is based on the story of beautiful girl, and to this day ii-i-leni:il can not li-ure out If the shriu- uas to perpetuate a tragedy or an lemur. The story l.s tint! Yumaloihihe. one of ihe greatest warriors In the history of the country, halted for a night at the village of Shlmoilaira. lie wa weary of battle and strife, nnd sent out word to the village that he wished to be entertained by the prettiest jr there. Keiaachlya was selected, ami It is told how she spent the evening singing and dancing for the inrrr. He went On his masterful way the i.et morning leaving the liltle nialih-ii to niouni Ins passing, nnd to give birth to his child In due time. Now, the child d'ed, as did : io'h er, and the village Reeled the shrine, and every few years It Is rebuilt and made more beautiful. P.ut what tm occidental can discover Is whellier the shrine was built to remind the cltbens of the militarism of the old days that trod with relentless heels on .e:f.:ar and wealthy alike, anil thus to pay tribute to a tragedy, or whether It was built to show that the great war rior honored the humble village by taking one of Its luembership into his arms. DIDN'T GET CHIEF'S MEANING Sailor Misunderstood, but After All. Kangaroo Is as Good a Name at Any Other. The Kangaroo received its nrtme through the failure of white men to understand the language of the Aus tralian bushnien. Captain Cook, dis coverer of Australia, gazing shoreward i one day. saw a group of natives about what seemed to be a nio-t peculiar niilinal. He sent a group of ncn I ashore to get It. and was still more I amazed when told of its shape, its habit of carrying its young In a pine-h and Its remarkable leaping ability. He wanted the natives' name for the spec I linen that he Intended to take back tn I England. "What's the name of that betisMe?" demanded an KnglMi tar of the na tives' chief. "Kan ga roo." returned the unlive. "Kangaroo, eh?" repealed the sailor man, and. satisfied, returned to his captain. The fact Is. however, that the words spoken by the chief are merely a phrase meaning "I, or we. don't know." Franklin Medal to Sir Charles Partont. The Franklin medal has been award ed to Sir Charles Parsons "In recogni tion of his epoch-making success In trie development and the construction of the steam turbine which has revo lutionized the art of steam engineer ing, particularly in regard to the pro pulsion of mercantile and naval ves sels, and the driving of electrical gen erators." Not many people know of the courageous struggle of Sir Charles In the early days of his Invention, and that be separated from his original partners owing to their becoming too discouraged to "carry on." Engineer ing, In speaking of the award, says: "The work of Sir Charles Parsons has halved the cost of producing electric power and reduced In still greater pro portion the capital cost of engineer ing machinery. Scientific Amerlcnn. Capsules and Fly Screens. Among modern Inventions that mnke for comfort a subscriber lists as two of the most Important the capsules now used for disagreeable medicines, and the wire screen used to protect our houses from disagreeable Insects. Quinine, he says, was In (he days of the Civil war the great medicine of the army, and it was taken by the teaspoon with nothing to disguise Its bitterness. All that Is past. -The well screened house, with Its freedom from mosquitoes and tiles, was un known to "the good old days." and It alone Is enough to make inodcVn life worth the llvlng.-'rom the Out look. Russia's Iron Ore Deposits. The greatest Iron ore deposits known are thought to hnve been locat ed near Koursk. Russia, by magnetic disturbances of Intensity uneqtialcd elsewhere. These disturbances were studied several years by Ihe lale Prof. Krnst I .cyst, n ltusslan, and his rep ents are said lo have been rescued ' ' Dangerous Curve' Ahead' ' Taking Care of Indoor Plants. Tn make ferns grow rapidly indoors and hmk fresh and green, chop a few oysters fine and mix with the soil and then water well. This may be done every fortnight. Wash the leaves of your rubber plant with a cloth wet with olive oil. This nourishes tin plant and keeps the leaves dark green and velvety. Add a few drops of nv: monln to n quart of lukewarm water when you waler house plants. The chemical acts as a tunic and fer'iii'.er and makes the foliage fresher. .Mid he careful, when real winter wmth-'r comes, not to water your plants with water too cold. Water running from a faucet In .T'inuary Is far loo fold for tender plants. Add enough hot water to make the drink you give your plants lukewarm as rainwater always Is In summer time. Story of the Pansy. The centenary of the pansy was cel ebrated a few years ago by the F.nir llsh florists and the history of 1 lie flower as given at the time was as fol lows : ".lust one hundred years ago I.ady Mary P.ennctt, a daughter of the earl of Tankervllle, was so struck with the simple beauty of a tiny wihlling viola trl-colnr that she collected some of the best plants and gave then) careful cul tivation. The lirst batch of seedlings nil sed by her gave such promise that systematic selection was nt once Instl tilled. and. thereafter the improvement of the genus was taken up by Hie lead ing glowers.

My exclusive tlmo will be devoted to the real estate busi ness, and business Intrusted to me will receive prompt and efficient at A Newspaper's TWO Sources of Revenue '''ii'1'1 'Mii-iii-liiiiiiiili': UBSCKIPTIOXS and advertising are the only sources of revenue a newspaper lias, and often the subscriptions do not pay for the cost of white paper. Advertising today, especially iu newspapers, is the greatest business getter there is. This is acknowledged bv men who know. People read advertisements in news papers. They have been educated to do so. Every merchant in our town ought to advertise. You remember the story about John Wana maker. The first day he was in business his receipts were $-J4.C4. He kept 04 cents and spent the- $24 the next day iu advertising. We all can't duplicate this feat, but according to the best statistics available three per cent of the gross sales should be put aside for advertising. Possible you will say: "1 don't need to advertise. I've been in this town thirty years and everybody knows me." Probably they do, but did you ever stop to think of the sales you lose because your fellow competitor advertises! He may advertise the same goods you have in stock,' but the people don't know you have them. The other fellow gets the sale because he advertises. And then how much more business would you do if you did advertise? We know of one merchant who advertised a lot of goods at 19 cents a yard. They cost him 27 cents. He took a clean loss, but while the sale was going on he could buy new goods at 12 cents. He put them in with the other goods and the ronult was that he cleaned his shelves of the old goods and he broke even on the deal. Advertsing and good buying liquidated his stock without a loss. We can't all be John Wanamakers, but we all can advertise in proportion to our business. Kesults will be sure if you advertise hon estly nnd give service. A newspaper can bring people to your store, but it can't make people buy your goods. Your clerks must do that and it depends upon the service you give as to how successful your business will be. What is done in the big cities can be done right here in this town, if you will show the pep, give the service and advertise. Make business good. You can do it through this newspaper. t r?1 Seeding Time Is Here Gilliam & Bisbee will sell you Drills and Harrows at prices that are right. Gilliam Si Bisbee itifflllitillllti L.
