After the cells had been cleared away
the mill was run at full power with

to prevent its being stove in against
the side of the vessel.
Ordinarily the device would weigh
one ton, and be of twenty-horse power
capacity. Its dimensions would be %
inches in diameter by 70 inches in
length, though the inventor believes
that yachts and fast steamers would
do better if the conica1 case were made
longer so as to slip through the water
more easily. This would not interfere
with the capacity of the motor.

-wo Pointed Questions Answerse.

what is the use of making a better article than your competitor if you cannot get q better price for it?
 Ans.-As there is no difference in the price the public will buy only the better, so that while our profits may be smaller on a single sale they will be much greater In the aggregate.
 How can y0u get the public to know your make is the best?
 If both articles are brought pr0mi- nently before the public both are cer. tain to be tried and the public will very quickly pass judgment on them and use only the better one.
 This explains the large sale on Chamberlain 3 C0ngh Remedy. The people have been nsing it for years and have found that it can always be depended upon. They may occa- sionally take up with some fashion able novelty put forth with exagger~ ated claims, but are certain t0 return to the one remedy that they know to be reliable, and for coughs, colds and croup there is nothing equal to Chamherlain's Cough Remedy.
