1.-The officers and sailors of the navy
are frequent sufferers from seasick-
ness, even after they have got their sea
legs on" observed a naval surgeon to
a Washington Star reporter. Indeed,
| think | can safely say that, young
and old, one-third of the entire navy.
officers as well as men, are seasick dur
ing storms as well as at other times.
In theory naval officers and sailors are
entirely free from such so-called weak
ness, but in fact they have stomaciis
and are sufferers at 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, for the reason that he
seldom has what is called shore duty
to perform, and he is on the ship all of
the time, barring the days off now and
then of liberty.
with an officer it is entirely differ
ent, for he seldom has to spend as much
time on the ship as he does on shore.

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 to go through all the painful and
distressing experiences of his first sea
sickness, and | am not sure but each
recurrence of this experience is worse
than the original. | know a dozen of
ficers of from fifteen to twenty-five
years experience ia the navy, and |
now of at least fifty others, who adj
hsit that they are as liable to seasick-
ness now as they were when they We're

"Why even Admiral Dewey, with
his twenty two and a half years ex-
p%erienct at sea-he completed his forty
fifth ye.tr of service in the navy Sept.

sickness, aad he makes no effort to
conceal it, and could not conceal it if
he desired. for when he is sick he is

ENGLAND IS OUT OF S MoA.
Germany and United States Take Title
La aIo..An-

to the Stands.
1t is announced officially that Great
Britain r%enounces her rights in Samoa in
favor of Germany. Under the Anglo.
German agreement, which is subject to
the approval of the United States, Ger.
many comes into possession of the larger
islands of Upolu and Savaii, and the
United States retains control of Tutuila.
Germany noun all rights to the
Tonga islands, $50 miles from Samoa;
the Savage islands, midway between Sa-
moa and Tonga, and cedes to Great
Britain two islands III the Solomon
group and Eaakes certain concessions to
Great Britain in South Africa.
Great Britain already holds the Fiji
islands, to the west of Tonga, and the
Loyalty islands, still farther west and
on the line from Samoa to Australia.
There are nine inhabited islands in the
Samoan group. Under the new agree
ment all of them except Tutuila will go
TO Germany.
The main interest of the United States
in Samoa is in the harbor Of Pango-
Tutuila. This Government has never
claimed control of any of the other isl
ands, but joined in a treaty with Great
Britain and Germany because of the in
terests of American citizens in the plan
tations of Upolu. The commission APP
pointed to settle the controversies as to
the land titles confirmed the titles OF
Germans to $4,000 acres, the British to
36,O0e, and the Americans to 21,000
acres.

PEOPLE TAUGHT TO SAVE.

Remarkable Growth of Great I~Sritain's
Postofice awnings " nix.
The history of the postoffice savings
bank of Great Britain is specially re-
markable. There is nothing compar-
able with it in the world as a savings
institution. 1t was founded only thir-
Height years ago and it now has
100000 depositors and holds in trust
over 5000, 100000. The business of the
London has grown to such enormous
proportions that an area of five acres
has recently been purchased at West
Kensington, in the outskirts of Lon
don, wherein new buildings will be
erected for it's accommodation. The
corner stone of the main structure
was laid in June by the Prince Of
Wales.
Every postoffice in the United King
dom is q branch of this bank, and there
are LOO branches. The institution
has been popular with the masses from
the beginning, and it's benefits in the
encouragement of thrift and proyi-
denee have been beyond estimation
One in every five persons in England
and Wales is said to have an accom-
in these banks, and one in every four
teen in Scotland and Ireland. The in
stitution catches the small savings, the
average sum on deposit by the 1000,
900 depositors l,eing only about $50.
Every device is employed to encourage
the making of deposits and to render
the banking process simple and con-
venienE. The elementary schools of the
country cooperate with the banks and
the children form a large percentage
of the depositors. Penny-stamp slips
are provided whereby children are
enabled to begin an account with a
minimum deposit of | shilling. An in
terest rate of 21Ia per cent is paid.

from as little as ten per cent. the first
year to as much as fifty the last. The
manager chooses the plays, forms the
supporting company, and conducts the
business as he pleases. If the manager
is putting forward a star who will APP
peal to the better grade of audiences,
his methods of exploitation will be dig
nified. yet he will neglect nothing to
arouse seemly interest-that is. he will
seek space in the newspapers by hav-
ing the actors address literary bodies,
discuss questions of dramatic art with
reporters, and do other things to catch
intellectual attention. But the end
aimed at cannot be gained unless the
star gives the moneys worth of enter

Ladies' Home Journal. Il have re-
Gently gone to the trouble to make some
inquiries into this matter. and have
been astounded to find that not one
fourth of the bills sen by doctors are
paid with IA thing like promptness.
There Is a ~quickening of the conscience,
a simple realization of a proper sense
of duty needed in this matter. 1t is
high time, in the case of hundreds of
families, that this matter should be
brought home to their sense of fairness
and justice. And as with them the
doctors have for SO many years been
the last 10 receive their due in the pay
ment of their bills. 1t would be only
simply justice that hereafter 'the last
