Improved Naval Armor.

A late important improvement In
armor for war-ships, and one in which
the Government of the United States IS
actively interested, is the invention OF q
retired invalid engineer Of the Navy.
The House committee has virtually dc-
cided to build four vessels under this
plan with the funds recently, appropri-
ated by Congress. The invention con-
sists essentially of a submerged turtle
back, or concavo-convexs shield or deck,
only four inches in thickness, extending
side to side and stem to stern of the
ship. and below the water-line of the
ship, the arrangement being such that
an enemy's shot from any direction can.
only strike the turtle-back at detlect-
ing angle, thereby protecting the vitals
of the ship. The sides of the vessel
above this invulnerable turtle-back are
filled in with cotton or cork which forms
a self-closing breach upon the passage
of ball through the sides above t6e
turtle-back The sides of the vessel
above the cOncavo-cOnvex shielu may,
moreover, be literally shot to pieces

penetrable, centrally arranged cylindri-
cal armor, which extends into the bot
tom of the ship where it is seated on q
hydraulic cushion. The gun itself has
its breech enclosed in an oval armor
mounted upon the cylinder, and of =
form similar to two saucers placed face
to face upon each other, and in which a
single gunner manipulates and fires the
gun. One gunner is sufficient to oper-
ate the gun by reason of hydraulic
loading apparatus, and by means of
which prepared ammunition is forced
up through pipe as needed from a
point below the turtle-back of the YES
sci. Hydraulic buffers are also provid-
ed which take up the recoil of the gun.
The upper part of the oval shield around
the breech of the gun serves to defect q
shot upwardly, and the lower part or
half of the shell serves to defect shot

Bows and Girls.

IF I had a dozen children l would
want them AL boys" said Mrs. Thrifty.
"Boys can take care of themselves, they
are energetic. enjoyable, and it doesn't
take half so much sewing to keep FAM
lily of boys along.''
'.Now, if should have my CHOICE
said Mrs. Workhard. II should rather
have my children all girls. Girls are so
gentle, SO helpful, have so much more
refinement than boys; and then it is
such pleasure to sew for them, they
look SO prettily in the garments made
for Them
Every we'll, ladies, said Mrs. Sensible,
..you are both right and wrong. l be-
lieve in q mixed fainily-part boys, part
girls. The boys influence the girls to
self-reliance, the girls refine the boys by
their gentleness. A boy who is brought
up with sisters makes the most manly

with the brothers makes the most wo-
manly woman '-Nev Have,, Register.

Cotton seed oil has been found by DR..
+. Scheibe to be very suitable for many
purposes for which salad oil is used.
This has been known for many wears to
Italian exporters OF olive oil, and so it
has come to pass that the Oil taken from
the cotton seed of our own country
comes back to us duly doctored, put up
in orthodox olive oil TASKS, and appro-
priately weighed with tariff and other
charges. Pure cotton seed oil is clear,
transparent, golden yellow in color, and
mild in taste. 1t has no smell. It can
then be easily sold for olive oil or mixed
with it. Cotton seed oil solidifes at l
degree, has specific gravity of O.923,
and sapOnifies with caustic alkalies or
lead oxide, and these facts may lead to
its detection.

Watering Horses.

One thing in the treatment of work
horses in hot weather we are disposed
to deprecate, viz: The custom of water
ing them three times day, and no
more. It is simply cruelty on the part
OF man toward his beast to compel the
team to plow or NOW from early morn
ing until noon, or from noon until night.
without allowing it the privilege Of .
refreshing draught. It is inconvenient,
many times, to water the team during
the forenoon or afternoon, and we are
not apt to think the time thus taken
lost, but when the farmers millennium
comes, there will probably be drinking
in every field, supplied from some ele-
waited spring, or from a drumming stream.
In the meanwhile, time ''lost' in doing
good, even though it may be in behalf
of the dumb animals, is well .lost''-it
may be regained. Could they speak, it
might be to say that they would like to
be treated in the matters of times for
food and drink, somewhat as we-their
wise masters-are accustomed to treat
ourselves. Indiana Farmer.

Locking Out the Professor.


Few boys are capable Of counting all
the cost Of playing tricks on the Facul-
ty." A man who knows enough to
govern college generally knows
enough to see when rogue shows his
tracks.
President Carter, when formerly pro-.
lessor in Williams. was noted for being
about the only one whom the students
could not lock out of his recitation
room. The freshman class, spurred on
by his knowledge, undertook to lock
him out, and one night secured bolts,
bars, cross-pieces and everything inn
aginable, and fastened up the door of
his recitation-r0om in such way that
they thought it would take at least half
day to open it. What was their cha
grin on going to recitation after chapel
the next morning, to find the door un-
fastened and Professor Carter sitting in
his usual chair, calmly smiling.
Unfortunately, however, one of tho
students had the night before left mat
in the stove-pipe, which commenced to
smoke as soon as the fire was fairly go
ing, SO Prof. Carter ordered the students
to 60 to the chapel, where he would fin
ish the recitation. About twenty of
them bolted and did not 60, Of course a
case Of direct disobedience, and they
were dealt with somewhat after this
style: Each one was required to call on
DR.. Hopkins, then President, who re-
ceived them very cordially, and remark
ed,-
.:Mr. how is your fatherp''
The freshman would reply
every well, THANK you.''
''And how is your mother?''
The freshman would remark that she
was also well.
Well said the President, Il guess
you had better visit them for few
weeks: Good-morning, Mr.
As far as heard from, it is the last
time body Of students ever tried 10 get
ahead Of Prot. Carter.

Intemperance dethrones the mind.
Look at the haggard, marred and
shameless drunkard, when with the
delirium tremens. Pen cannot des-
cribe, tongue cannot tell, and no
painter can paint the terrors thai,
haunt the visions of the victim of de
Iirium tremens. He imagines that
fiends are filling his room, hanging
on the walls, dropping from the cell
ings, dancing in the air, and that he
is marching through the streets of
hell with dragons, with eyes of roll
ing fire, and nostrels of Wheeling
fame, in whose snlphurous wake
an army of hob-gohiings hover,
and next he tancies serpents are
twisted around his throat choaking
him, then they twine about his legs
and body with their cold shiny
bodies, with Jagged barbs tipped
with venom and with opened mouth
and forked tongue, they strike their
poisoned fangs mid their horrid his
sing, into his quivering flesh, while
great beads of cold sweat bathe his
'rhrobing brow and agItated frame.
Next he imagines vermin are in his
he'd, on his person, creeping over
him; insects intest the all, strange
sounds salute his ears; he hears the
songs of dem ons, the cry of murder
greets him. and in his deranged
vision he sees crowds of men lurking
in the covering of darkness. plotting
to take his life. They arc here and
