reason to expect a victory

greet it.
Mr.. Peter McCree, the custodian, has

SEASlCK ON SEA LEGS.

Officers nnd Sailors of the Navy FIRE.
queHtly Distressed.
THE officers and sailors of the navy
are frequent sufferers from seasick-
ness. even after they have got their
sea legs on observed u naval surgeon
to a reporter. Indeed | think | can
safely say that, young and old. one
third of the entire navy officers as well
as men are seasick during storms as
well as at other times In theory naval
officers and sailors are entirely free
from such so called weakness, but, in
fact, they have stomachs and are suf-
ferers at times the same as the rest
Of humanity.
1.-The sailor in this respect has many
advantages over the naval officers and
is less sensitive to seasickness for the
reason that he seldom has what is
called shore duty to perform, and he
is on the ship all the time. barring
the days off now and then of liberty.
When an officer. it is entirely different,
for he seldom has to spend as much
time on the ship as he does ON shore.
The three years sea duty are generally
followed by three years shore duty,
during which time his sea legs and
stomach entirely disappear and have
to be built up again.
1T is rare that an officer on return
to sea duty does not have 20 go
through all the painful and distressing
experiences of his first seasickness,
and | am not sure but each recurrence
of this experience IL worse than the
original. | have known a dozen Off
GERS of from IL to % years experience
in the navy, and know Of ut least 90
others who admit that they are as lia-
ble to seasickness now as they were
when they were middies fresh from
the Naval cademy."-Washingto
