THE NEW RECORD.

Americas admiration for the Campo
MAS breaking record Is not at
all lessened by the reflection that the
Campanla IL the product OF British
brains. skill and capital, and that her
rich earnings go into British pockets.
We do not follow English example in
grudging praise to a successful rival,
and the latest triumph OF English ship
building il admired as heartily In New
York as in Liverpool.
The Campania IL the fastest steamer
that crosses the ocean, and the fastest
steamer Is the safest. There Is a gem
eral impression that the great speed
of modern vessels IL dangerous. The
truth Is that in order to attain
this great speed the vessel must
be so strongly constructed and 80
perfectly designed as to reduce every
element OF danger to a minimum. The
only possible danger to such vessel
as the Campania is a collision. which
would be equally dangerous to any other
vessel; all other possibilities OF disaster
have been practically abolished.
The new time record fixes the futur,
of the ocean ferry. These steamers ar,

The cantharides Is a preparation of

stimulate the scalp; the glycerine will
soothe, heal and nourish, and the bay

time, cleanse. Use daily for two weeks
