sion Of colds combined with impure blood. Dis
agreeable flow from the nose. tickling in the
throat, offensive BREATH pain over and between
the eyes, ringing and bursting noises in the ears,

great desire on the part of the dealer or

Mrs. Sallie P. Howser died at her resi-
deDce on G street yesterday afternoon, after
an illness of about two months. She was
born in Kentucky in 1900. Her life was
an eventful one, and her variations of the
pioneer days of Kentucky and Missouri
were interesting always, being filled with
details preserved by wonderful memory.
She was a cousin of Daniel Boone, the
Kentucky frontiersman, and his exploits,
from personal knowledge, were reminis-
cences upon which she liked to dwell at
length.

J. Van Rankin fell from box car while

LARGEST Enrinn in the ryo,id

The largest steam engine in the world is
that constructed for the new Italian cruiser
Sardegna. 1t really consists of four triple
expansion engines, which can be used to-
gether or separately, as desired, the entire
combination being capable Of developing a
force of $4,000 nominal, or $4,000 actual
horsepower. The ship is driven by twin
screws, and two engines are connected to
the shaft Of each screw, but one screw can
be stopped altogether if the vessel is to be
turned around, or, for ordinary sailing, one
engine only may be used for each screw ;
but, in case it should be necessary to in
crease the speed, the other engines can at
once be connected and the full power ex-
erted. As usual with naval machinery. a
large number Of auxiliary engines are used.
On the SardeSna there are no less than
twenty compound auxiliary engines for
feeding the boilers, keeping up the draught
and so on, besides great variety of single
cylinder machines.-AmeTican Architect.
