Crowning Moment of a Ships Career.
A successful launch Of large vessel
has been called the crowning moment
of shipbuilder's career. Some one has
said also that launch is the most deli
cate part Of a shipbuilder's work. Tt ia
very difficult to say what is the most
delicate part of shipbuilding, for tho
simple reason that there doesn't seem
to be any part of it that isn't delicate.
No more complex machinery is made
than the wonderful marine engine. no
more carefully designed structure exists
than the hull Of modern steamship. A
launch is as much matter CT mathe-
matics as any part Of the work Of build
ing ship, and perhaps it is because
launches are always inspiring that they
have been called the crowning occasions
of shipbuilding.
It is only since the United States be-
gan to build new navy that We have
had launches of largo vessels i'll this
country. We have built SO many fine
warships that it was not unusually diff
cult for us to build merchant vessels of
the first grade, and we have just 1ln-
ished two ships next i'll size to the two
largest ships that are aloat in the
world. Building these ships was great
achievement, however, and hence the
ceremony of putting them into the wa
ter from dry land attracted great atten-
tion throughout the country and was at
tended in each case by thousands of
spectators. They saw the picturesque
side of each Of these events. They saw
the foam as the christening bottle of
wine was broken upon the bow. They
heard the cheers and shouts and helped
to make them. They waved their hats
and handkerchiefs as the ship began to
glide down into the water, and each
man almost held his breath until he saw
her safe in the stream and acknow ledg
ing the plaudits of the multitude by
making graceful bow Launching

TlsE DAUNT1ESS WHICKER.

ThG whiclzer sat on the edge of the meer,
Ills trusty whick on his knees.
''Let the wire squot with its fiercest crear,"
Ee cried. ''The whicker knows no feari
will gartle its tarlome leeze.''
Wild howled the labst DER the banking meer
And the govelling plewts dashed Nigh
Intrepid the whicker gouted cheer,
Awaiting the squot of the wire drear
Meath the awbs of the pildrig sky.
Then a sudden clab sInote his strewning ears
And cold on the whiclxer's heart
Fell drusig pang. g 'Tis my lopsome Breers, ,
He wept, sin the brutal wires pleers.
She is squoted with gastling art.
81 comei'' cried the whicller. One glance he
gave
At the govells that baggled wild
With the flashing whick at his breast he claye
Right on through the dashing plewts to save
His breers from the wires gyld.
Right merrily garfield the whickers whick
Where the crear of the wire dawled.
The red blood googled beneath its click,
The gimful squots of the wilre jick
In vain were besaggled all.
The wire is dlapped, but the breers SO gay
In the gyld lies stark and pale.
The whiclzer hurtles his whick away
And sad through the awbs of the pildrig day
Goes forth to his lone kumale.

The Treatment of warts.

When one has to deal with isolated
warts, they must be taken off with a
scoop. A rather abundant hemorrhage
follows, which may be arrested by COM
preston or by cauterization. When
warts exist in large numbers, this pro-
cedure is no longer applicable, particu-
larly on account of the numerous cica-
trices that follow its employment. In
these cases the better way is to shrivel
the excrescences with nitric acid. The
tincture of thuja is also very efficacious
topical application.
In cases of condy Iona the small tu-
mors may be busted with powdered re-
sorcin or salicylic acid. They may also
be covered with plaster containing
these substances in the proportion Of
from 10 to 20 per cent. When the face
is studded with large number of these
little warts, which often appear sudden
ly, DR.. Kaposi covers them with a piece
Of flannel with layer Of black soap.
This is left on the warts for "a hours
and adheres to the skin, gradually be-
coming detached with the warts
Another very good application is the
following mixture: Flour of sulphur,
90 parts; glycerin, so parts; pure con-
centrated acetic acid, 10 parts. The
warts are painted with this mixture for
several days without taking off the first
layer, and gradually the excrescences
dry up and become detached.
For keratosis Of the palms of the
hands and the soles Of the feet plasters
of resorcin and salicylic acid are also
efficacious. If the case is one of mollus
cumlike n9vus, it is better TO employ
electrolysis. The needle connected with
the positive pole is plunged into the tu-
NOR, and current is passed of from one
to two milliamperes for about 80 Sec
onds. This operation is repeated at the
end of 8 and Is days. When the navus
is very large, tho galvano cautery is
preferable. Cincinnati Enquirer.

more honey. And they seemed to recog-
nize the service we had done them in
cutting down the limb. They thought
we had done it for their special benefit,
and in coon language they showed their
gratitude as plainly as could be as long
as a speck of honey lasted. After that
they returned to original sin and unin-

SWEET TOOTHED COONS.

A Great Feast of Honey That Two of Them
Unearthed.
"You remember those two coons l
told you about that we had with the
crow and the dog up in the Cumberland
mountains during the war;" said Ser
geant McGrew. "Well, those coons were
about as much fun as the crow. A coon
is pretty fond of devilment himself,
and when he has a crow to help him
whoop things up and there are two
coons and a crow the hilarity is pretty
continuous Sometimes we could hardly
get any work out of the men for watch
ing the menagerie. If we had just had
monkey to top off the collection with,
I am satisfied no one would have work
ed any. We did get a cub bear after
awhile, but he was eclipsed by the coons
and the crow, though by himself a
young pet bear is good company.
''Do you know that coons love honey
as we'll as a bear? Well, they do, for a
fact. There was great high tree where
our camp was, so tall and big that it
shaded our whole camp. l used to no.

that tree and get out on one certain
limb and lay there for hours. I couldn't
account for this except it was that they
were hiding from that internal crow
that never gave them any peace. One
day thought l saw little hole in the
underside of that limb right under the
coons, and I fancied I saw something
T Eo1In1acC orld then |
saw bees going i'll and out The coons
had smelled it out. They couldn't get
to it, being on the underside of the
limb, but they laid as close to it as they
could get, keeping up mighty switch
ing and occasionally running their paws
into the hole But they never got taste.
"Well, reported the bees nest and
we eheld a council of war. Some opposed
cutting the tree down because of the
shade it gave u.s. Others wanted to post
pone action, but as the enemy was liza
BILE to chase US out any day, and I was
as honey hungry as the coons, object
ed We decided to chop off the limb. 1t
was SO high up that the fall would have
ruined the honey We had sailor chap,
though, who could climb like monkey,
and he rigged up ropes SO hat when the
limb was severed it was lowered gently
down and never Jared the honey.
"Well, we split the limb. You never
saw such find of wild honey. There
was about a barrelful, I should judge
When we had robbed it, we left the re-
mains for the coons, and, Lord, what
time they had They would cock their
heads, run their paws down, lick off the
honey, and an expression Of real heaven
ly delight would creep into their faces.
It was funny to watch them chew the
comb till the honey was all gone. roll
