SEASICK ON SEA LEGS.
Officers aud Sailors of Navy Frequently
Distresscd-DcweyN No ENCcptiO

DistreSScd-DcWcy No Exception.
'The officers and sailors of the navy
are frequently sufferers from seasick-
ness, even after they have got their sea
legs on observed Il naval surgeon 10
a. star reporter. Indeed, ulnk
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, I'M fact,
they have stOmaChs and are sufferers az
times the same as the rest Of humanity.
The sailor in this respect, has many
advantages over the naval officers,
and is less sensitive TO seasickness.
gor the reason that he seldom has what
Is called shore duty. barring the days of

he does on shore. The three years sea
duty is generally followed by three years
shore duty. during which time his less
and stomach entirely disappear, and have
TO be built IN again. Ii Is rare that an
officer on return to sea duty does not have
TO go through all the painful and distress
ing experiences of his first seasickness.
and I am not sure but each recurrence
OF this experience is worse than the
ORIGINAL. I know a dozen officers Of from
fifteen TO twenty-five years experience
in the navy. and I know of at least fifty
others who admit that they are as liable
to seasickness now as they were when
they were mddies fresh from the Naval
Academy. Why, even Admiral Dewey.
