Women are the real heroes OF the
world. Thousands on thousands Of them
endure the dragging torture Of the ills
peculiar to womankind in the silence of
home. They suffer on and on-weeks,
months, years. The story of weakness
and torture is written in the drawn
features, in the sallow skin, in the list
less eyes, in the lines of care and worry
on the face.
Inborn modesty seals their lips. They
prefer pain to humiliation. Custom has
made them believe the only hope of
relief lies in the exposure Of examins-

THE ROLLING SHIP.

Our Canadian neighbors have the repu- persons, and have frequently shown a disposition to shake their heads at us as being little unsafe and visionary in our ventures. But they have embarked at Toronto in 8 scheme as wild as the Keeley motor and nearly as unsubstantial as the air-ship which was lately lowering over Kansas City. They are building ship (we call it ship for want of better name, though in reality it Is no more like a ship than a crocodile is like bird) on an entirely novel plan. First a double cylinder seventy-five feet long is made of boiler iron twenty-five feet in external diameter, with an air space between the inner and outer skins sufficient to enable the cylinder to float with the open part in the center above the water level when the structure is in the water. Both ends are left open. In this central part a tube or cylinder is placed on ball bearings. This tube, presumably about ten feet in diam eter, is weighted on one side so that when the main cylinder rolls in the water it will not rotate. It projects from the end of the water cylinder, as it is considerably the longer. In this inner tube or cylinder the passengers and freight are to be carried. The outside or main cylinder Is fitted with fianges or paddles projecting from the surface, so that when 1t is turn ed in the water is will roll ahead and not turn over and over in the same place. The rotation is effected by means of loco motive engines which climb up on track between the the two tubes and causes the outer cylinder to revolve as squirrel makes his wheel revolve by running up the side. The full-sized ship is to be seven hundred feet long an seventy five | feet in diameter and is expected to roll over the Atlantic Ocean to England in three days at most. The small models work beautifully in bath-tub.
 The preposterous nature of this under taking is more evident to the laymen than IS the absurdity of Keeleys motor, for that is so shrouded in mystery and fog of long words that there might be some thing hidden in it-there might be mule in the basement, for instance-but the Canadian roller-ship makes no attempt at concealment. It is simply a ship that moves sidewise instead of lengthwise. The advantages claimed are that 1t would be perfectly steady and no passenger would be sea-sick. This is no doubt true. Those who put their money in the under taking will be very sick. No doubt 1t will move very slowly, not more than two miles an hour, for as soon as it begins to roll sidewise, 8 wave will be formed iu front and 1t will be forced to roll uphill task which Sysiphus found to be ex. tremely tiresome and monotonous many years ago, if we may put any faith in the pages of history. The undertaking illus trates the truth that when steady and un- imaginative people have a fit of craziness they are much crazier than enterprising and enthusiastic persons would be under the same circumstances. However, 1t Is safer to go crazy in mechanics than to go crazy in political matters. After all, the rolling ship is not a much wilder scheme than free coinage at sixteen to one.- Hdrtford Courdnt.

 Flesh

You naturally lose flesh in the summer and running down is so easy. You get a little weaker each day without hard ly noticingit There is loss of appetite, headache, weakness of the muscles, disturbed sleep, weakness ofmemory, and these are the beginning of nervous prostration Iron and tonics and bitters may afford some temporary relief, but what you need Is a food for body. brain and nerves.

Getting Them Up.

"There Is only one successful way of getting man up early," says hotel clerk. i've have to send boy to his door who will knock until he hears, and then tell him that there Is a tele- gram for him. That always brings a commercial man out at once, and as soon as he opens the door for the tele- gram we just say, Sir. 1t Is 7:so o'clock He will slam the door shut with the biggest sort of an oath and tear about the room as mad as @ wild bull That wakes him up pretty thor oughly, and be comes down stairs feel ing so sheepish that be doesn't say 6 word. We practice that deception every morning. We've got to. The other morn ing we awoke man in that way after trying the bell repeatedly. He was mad at first, but when he came down stairs he said 1t would have cost him $500 if he had missed his train. "-New York Trfbuna

The Fart h at the Poles.

A French scientist, NJ de PApparent,
finds in Nansen's discovery of the un-
expectedly great depth Of the Arctic
ocean an argument tending to show
that the es.th is slightly top shaped,
the protuberance corresponding to the
point of the top being at the South
Pole. This, he thinks, would explain
the different results arrived at by the
various measurements of astronomers
and geodesists. These differences ara
very small in comparison with the en-
tire bulk of the globe, yet they are
readily appreciable, and one of the
explanations that has been suggested
for them is that the earth is tetrahedral
in form. But NJ. de PAppareut thinks
the top-shape theory is preferable
The fact that to an eye looking at the
earth from a point in space it would
not sensibly differ in appearance from
a true sphere shows how refined are
the methods Of science which enable
men living on the surface Of the globe
to detect variations in its general coa-
tolr. ,

KEEP A STIFF UPPER llP.",

There's bit OF homely wisdom
Floating round this busy world
For the weak and sad and helpless
Who, alas, are often hurled
'Gainst the rocks Of old Misfortune,
Oh the cape OF dark Despair,
When they fail to gain u foothold
On earth's surface anywhere;
And it loves to come and tell them,
As it sees them slide and slip.
"The man wno does the winning
Keeps good stiff upper lip
All. it seems 4 little matter
To the man on solid ground
Tint your legs are knocking under
And your bands are simply bound
By the cruel gives of weakness,
Wrapped around your quiverinS frame /;
Though you're working tooth and talons
To "get there" all the same,
He'll often kindly tell you
+ That you mustn't lose Your grip,
But must sally forth to battle

And there's value in the fact,

In just the simple act
But often stop TO wonder

And need not fear her whip
While you sing and dance beside her

This homely bit Of wisdom
Is tonic to despair:
And we need to take it humb.y

And though we drink the wormwood
And life's pleasures seldom sip.
We must still toll on. my brothers,
