NOVEL IDEAS In WAR SHIPS
Various Convenience of a Fighting Navy
Supplied by the United States,
INNOVATIONS IN SEAG0lNG VESSELS
Pantry Squadron, Floating Repair
shops, Hospital ships and Similar
Necessities Make Their First
Appearance.

The United States has lived up to its
reputation for novel ideas in the war with
Spain. The operations about Cubs gave rise
TO certain requirements unusual in naval
warfare. Each of these has been met by
American ingenuity, and today the govern
ment has afioat a little fleet of new and
hitherto unknown ships of war.
This fleet consists of half a dozen vessels.
Their mission is to succor the wounded, feed
the fighters, provide water and to repair the
fighting ships. Every one OF them is a now
city in warfare, an American device, yet so
quietly have they been provided that their
appearance has not been heralded as any
thing unusual. In a few weeks they have
come to be accepted as practical and neces-
sary auxiliaries in modern naval opera
lions.
The proper care of the wounded was
deemed so essential that the war was barely
a settled fact before both the army and
navy were developing ideas, which have re-
suited in the commissioning OF two ambu-
lance or hospital ships, the Solace and the
Relief. The former, the naval vessel, was

Thousands have tried from time immem-
orial to discover some efficacious remedy
for wrinkles and other imperfections of
the complexion, but none had yet sue
ceeded until the Misses Bell, the now fam
Gus Complexion Specialists, of rs Fifth
avenue, New York City, offered the pub
lie their wonderful Complexion Tonic.
The reason SO many failed to make this
discovery before is plain, because they have
not followed the right principle. Balms,
Creams, Lotions, etc, never have a tonic
effect upon the skin, hence the failures.
The Misses Bells Complexion Tonic has
a most exhilarating effect upon the cuticle,
absorbing and carrying off all impurities
which the blood by its natural action is
constantly forcing to the surface of the
skin. 1t is to the skin what a vitalizing
tonic is to the blood and nerves, a kind of
new life that Immediately eXhilarates and
strengthens wherever applied. Its tonic
effect is felt almost Immediately, and it
speedily banishes forever from the skin,
freckles, pimples, blackheads, moth patches,
wrinkles, liver spots, roughness, %oiliness,
eruptions and discolorations of any kind.
In order that all may be benefited by
their Great Discovery, the Misses Bell will,
during the present month, give to all call

Importance of a good complexion; tells

feeling that the flag should not be worn

Something new in the patriotic line, which
Is probably not expensive, is an Admiral

the success of the new idea. The Celtic was
originally an Austrian trader called the Gel

tons of freight besides the refrigerating
compartments.
The latter form the unique feature of the
vessels equipment. They are three in num-
Der. and are located tween decks, forward
of the engine rooms. The refrigerating APP
paratus, which cost the round sum of $780,
600, is so complete that 1t is possible to
maintain a temperature OF 10 degrees, month
after month. The three compartments are
so arranged that fresh meats can be kept
in one, vegetables in the second and ice in
the third. When the Celtic sailed on her
first trip south she carried 300, 900 pounds of
fresh beef and mutton, 800, 900 pounds of
fresh vegetables and $50 tons of ice. A
mere bagetlle like that does not go very
far, however, when one takes into consider
alton the fact that each man and boy in

to IL pounds of meat and the same guam
tity of vegetables each day.
