That is as fast as most Conti nental and many English expresses. It is only five years ago that a speed of 26 knots in destroyers was considered something phenomenal. So that in five years the gain in speed has been no lesss than 13 knots, a record which we venture to think has never been equaled for a like period. It took us 80 years to rise from 14 knots to 26.

A recent gift to the Peabody Museum of American Archaeology and Ethnol ogy of the famous "Calaveras skull" reawakens interest in that remarkable relic of antique man. The skull was found in 1866 imbedded in gold-bearing gravel in Calaveras county, California, at a depth of 127 feet. Above it were four beds of lava that had flowed from a now extinct volcanic vent. The late Prof. J. D. Whitney (whose sister, Mies Maria Whitney, made the gift to the museum) was convinced of the genuine pets of the discovery. The owner of the skull is supposed to have lived in the Pliocene epoch, a period so remote that the most ancient dates of history seem quite recent in comparison. The most powerful microscope ob jective yet. made is a 1-10 inch mono bromide of naphthaline immersion lens made Zeiss. Its numerical aper ture is 1.60, and it has resolved or made visible a detail only 1,200,000 oT an inch in width.

Serene comfort and happiness in ad vanced years are realized by compara tively few women. Their hard lives, their liability to 86' rious troubles on account of their pecvr liar organism and their profound igno rance concerning themselves, all com- bine to shorten the period of usefulness and fill their lateryears with suffering. Mrs. Pinkham has done much to make women strong. She has given advice to many that has shown them how to guard against disease and retain vigor ous health in old age. From every cor ner of the earth there Is constantly com lng the most convinciug statements from women, showing the efficacy of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound in overcoming female ills. Here is a letter from Mrs. J. C. Orms, of 220 Horner St., Johnstown, Pa., which is earnest and straight to the point: ' Dear Mbs. Pinkham. I feel ltmy duty to tell all suffering women that I think your remedies are wonderful. I had trouble with my head. dizzy spells and hot flashes. Feet and hands were cold, was very nervous, could not sleep well, had . kidney trouble, pain in ovaries and congestion of the womb. SiDce taking your remedies I am better every way My head trouble is all gone, have no pain in ovaries, and am cured of womb trouble. I can eat and sleep well and am gaining in flesh. I consider your medicine the best to be bad for female troubles." The present Mrs. Pinkham's experi ence in treating female ills is unparal lelled, for years she worked side by side with Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham, and for sometime past has had sole chargo of the correspondence department of her great business, treating by letter as many as a hundred thousand ailing women during a single year. DR. WHITE TALKS. He Sounds a, Note of Warning That Should Be Heeded by All. One of the points where "science teaches us that what is might have been avoided, ib in the matter of ir regular teeth. ' "A great percentage of the irregular teeth 'we see," says Dr. Thomas H. White, at the northeast corner oi Morrison and Fourth streets, "in caused by the lack of proper oare of the infant teeth. When we come to considder the great number of teeth in malposition, the subject of the care of the first teeth assumes new import ance to us." In discussing this matter with a representative of , the press, re cently, he said among other things: "Mothers cannot be too careful in their consideration of the condition and character of the first teeth of their children. The object of this is not to allow the deoay of the first teeth to proceed so far that they become ulcer ated or abcesses form at their roots, in which case extraction is the only solu tion of the trouble. The first teeth should be retained until nature is ready to supplant them with other teeth. This can be accomplished by the tem porary filling of cavities so that the teeth may be depended upon in the mastication of food. The very exercise of the teeth, as with any other organ of the body, will aid in keeping them in a healthy condition. Every part of the body has a function to perform, and should De maintained in a healthy con dition to accomplish it if possible. Every tooth, therefore, that is extract ed interferes to a certain degree with the preparatory process of digestion. Of course, it is not to the interest of the dentist to have teeth taken care of too well." THE RUSH OF THE OREGON. They held ber south to Magellan's mouth Then east they steered her. forth Through the farther gate of the craft; strait, And then they held her north, : Six thousand miles to the Indian Isles! And the Oregon rushed home. Her wake a swirl of Jade and pearl. Her bow a bend of foam. And when at Rio the cable sang "There Is war. erlm war with Sraln!" The swart crews grinned, and stroked thell guns, And thought on the mangled Maine. In the glimmered gloom of the engine room mere was joy to each grimy soul, And fainting men sprang up again And heaped the blazing coal. Good need was there to go with care But every sailor prayed Or gun for gun or six to one To meet them, unafraid. Her goal at last! With Joyous blast She hailed the welcoming roar Of hungry sea-wolves curved along The strong-hilled Cuban shore. Long nights went by.

William Aldrlch, on eccentric bach elor who died at Mishawaka, Ind., re cently, ordered his own oorfln built pre vious to his death, and the casket was constructed in the shape of an "L," with the perpendicular line at a slight angle. Aldrlch resided In Berrien County, Michigan, where he was one of the wealthy land owners and quite prominent as a Spiritualist. Being 6tricken with consumption, he went to his mother's home to die. - When the queer casket was built he had it taken to his home to test it, gave the undertaker instructions as to glass front, hinges and inscriptions. At the funeral the colli n could not be placed in the funeral car, hence several crews of pallbearers' were secured to relieve each other. The reclining coffin was placed In a large vault, covered with a monster slab. His mother was in structed to have a similar casket built, that "he might converse with her and A O.UEER COFFIN. rest comfortably until both enter new world," as he expressed it Buried with him are many valuables, books, a revolver and a lamp. Hundreds came from neighboring cities to witness the interment of the eccentric individual. ; " The Real Pufferer. nowland Well, my landlord called for his rent for the third time this afternoon.
