or dock yard. Many OF the men only draw half
Of their pay, the other half being disbursed
monthly at some one of the government offices
This system removes the possibility of the
money being stolen, something that happens
quite frequently when the mail is handled by
an unprincipled letter carrier.
When the entire term Of twenty years has
been put in the man, if found fit after physi-
cal examination. may be received for five years
more. and this would be to his advantage when
he comes to be pensioned At the completion
OF that five years he may try again for an addi-
tional five (something not frequently done),
and service throughout that period also would
result in another increase of pension. The pen
sions are not SO bad as pensions go in
other lands, for the old sailors receive
from go to Ga cents per day. A warrant
officer cannot get q pension though, until he
has served until twenty-five years Of age,
but then he gets $500 year for the balance Of
his life. Then there is additional pay for good
character badges. of which there are three, one
coming at the end Of three years service and
bringing with it cents additional per day, the
second five years later, that also bringing 2
cents per day, and the third after thirteen
years OF service, with another additional 2
cents.
No difficulty is experienced in keeping up the
supply OF trained boys nor is any looked for.
The navy is Great Britain's most popular in

Will be men enough to work them. G. II. H.

Which-Garlic or Cholera?

From the North China Herald.
In connection with the employment of garlic
as an antiiote it will be in the recollection of
readers of the home papers that during the
outbreak of cholera in Europe last season it was
observed by sanitary inspectors, medical men
and others that in rows of distinctly ill-drained
unhealthy cottages the occupiers of dwellings,
having strings of onions hanging from the
ceilings enjoyed comparative immunity from
attack. and. again, that in districts where
onions and garlic entered freely into consump-
ton as food fatal attacks were uncommon.

THE KIDNEYS,
Celery Compound Makes
People Well.
1t Has Cured When Everything
Elise Has Failed.
Fewer Ifs" and Maybes I"
Than Ever Before.
The Trouble Primarily With
Blood and Nerves.
A True Remedy Better Than All
the Trade Medicines.

There are today fewer 'if" and "maybes" in
medicine than ever before.
It's time of great results.
Not long ago 1t was said of man sick with Ger.
tain diseases that nothing could be done for him.
Today there are few diseases that cannot either be
cured or controlled.
ABOUT the last to yield to the patient, accurate
study of science were diseases of the kidneys.
In the case of Brghts disease there is still that
deadly certainty of diagnosis which answers the
inquirer buntly, yes, no, but the disease itself
has lost its fearfulness. Medicine cures and con-
trolls 1t today.
Perhaps more study has been devoted to this
consumption of the kidneys than to any other
single complaint Its characteristics have been
most clearly marked out. The disease soon in
wolves many other organs of the body; other
troubles are induced, such pneumonia and
rheumatism. The trouble is primarily with the
blood and nerves.
Some of the symptoms of disease of the kidneys
are rapid weakening of the system, tenderness
over the kidneys, chils, headaches and swelling Of
feet and limbs.
physicians have, in many cases, held to their own
ideas Of the incurableness Of kidney troubles, and
have chung stifiy to their old-time text books but
SO many of these cases have been afterward cured
by Paine's celery compound that this great remedy
Is looked upon by physicians as having unsurpassed
power to cure all diseases Of the Kidneys 1t cures
where everything else fails. Paines celery COM
pound is as superior to all the ordinary "trade"
remedies as diamond is to common glass. 1t was
first prescribed by no less man than DIR. f. E.
Phelps, the most famous of Dartmouth's professors
and is Endorsed by physicians and the public as no
other remedy was ever Endorsed.

CLOTHING.

In the matter of clothing the regulations
seem to be a trifle stringent on the seamen
When boy joins he is allowed $50 for cloth
ing. and receives from Quitting contractor
one-half of the kit which is deemed necessary
After being on the training ship some time he
gets the other half. His supply consis Is of two
pair OF blue cloth trousers and two blouses of
serge, two serge trousers, two serge jumpers,
four pairs of trousers and four jumpers of
duck. two pairs white summer trousers, two
uniform jumpers with blue facing. two white
drill frocks, two black silk handkerchiefs. three
fannels. two check shirts with blue collars, two
night shirts, pair of boots. pair of shoes,
two pairs of socks. two pairs of stockings. two
cap ribbons. two caps, white hat: bed and
hauket. two bed covers and a small ''ditty -box, "
IN which he keeps his writing materials. This
is all the government gives him. and although
he remains in the for the rest of his days
he must keep up the supplies at his own expense
DOES NOT WASTE HIS MONEY.
There is widespread but evidently errone-
GUS impression abroad that your jolly Jack Tar is
a good deal of a spendthrift. OF course some
bluejackets are. but if the information Sc
cured from great many of those who are now
serving on board the Blake is ANYTHING like
correct, and have every reason for believing
that it is. a vast majority of the men save the
greater portion of their pay. They are temper
ate men; they have to be. for if they were
otherwise they could not remain in the service.
They patronize to very gratifying extent the
naval savings bank, which on each ship is
looked after by an assistant paymaster. Every
thing possible is done to encourage
the accumulation of such money as
the men and their families do not
actually need. and the result is
Is well worth all the trouble. The government
encourages the saving habit by paying 81 per
cent interest for money deposited and it also
makes things easy for the safe transmission OF
sh sIacE ntS fn nd To ia
wife or mother. The paymaster of a ship will,
upon being notified as to the address, forward
at the request of the seaman all any por-
ton of the money which the sender has to his
credit to any person who will take the trouble
to call for the cash at the nearest post Office

men Of what the purse GAN do, backed
only by o sAOV Of the sword sufiOisnt to,
keep the people quiet while losing their
homes.
Now let US notice matters nearer home.
Suppose Great Britain should send an
ironclad to the coast Of New Jersey and
capture q bit Of sandy beach on which TO
erect Qualifications, and over which to
float the British Aag. How our AmeFi-
can blood would boil That bit Of worth
les9 sand would be reclaimed IL it cost
the life Of every able-bodied man in
America But on the other hand, British
landlords have sent that other war
power, the purse, into the very heart OF
this nation, and have captured many
thousands Of acres OF the best lands on
the continent, without boiling our Ameri-
can blood TO any alarming extent Why
would Great Britain capture this coun-
try with the swordH The answer ID
plain: That she might levy tribute on
our people. Why do British landlords
capture our lands with the purseS The
answer is equally plain: That they may
levy tribute on our people.
Let US examine few facts as they
exist to-day, black and portentoUs, in
this land Of boasted freedom. One VIII
liam Scully, British landlord, has sent
his purse to America, and has actually
captured some $1,000 acres Of the richest
lands in the state Of Illinois; and It is
said that the American citizens living on
those acres are compelled to pay 100000
lper annum to that British landlord for
the privilege Of oultivating the American
soil on which they and their children are
born. That 10 q greater tribute than
King George expected to exact by the
sword, in the days Of 1776. That same
, landlord, William Scully, Of London, has
captured several thousand acres in Mar
shall county, Kas, and other thousands
of acres In other parts Of that state. All
this is done by that war power known as
"the purse" It is done that Mr.. Scully
may levy tribute on the people OF
America; that his children may levy
tribute on our children, and that his
grandchildren may levy tribute on our
grandchildren, and 80 on down to the
latest generation. What moro could MIR.
Scully do with the sword, IL he had all
the armies Of Europe at his backp In
some parts Of Colorado the people OF that
state are paying tribute to European
landholders for every blade OF grass
cropped by their COWS and other animals
which are necessary for the support OF
their families.
The public highways Of nation are
said to be the property OF the people.
Their ownership Is deemed 30 important
that wars are often wagsd for thoir
possession. The United States originally
|. paid millions Of dollars for the possession
Of that highway known aS the Mississippi
river. At later date the country spent
hundreds Of millions Of treasure, and
poured out blood like water, in order 10
retain that great public highway Of travel
and commerce. / mention these facts to
show the high estimate that 10 usually
attached 10 the possession Of the great
, public highways Of the country. Yet,
strange as 1t may seem, we have in this
