Holiday Cheer

Now let's be gay and festive
With true autumnal cheer,
And set the fireplace blazing
All steadily and clear,
And as we watch with smiling
The flames that upward roll,
Well even toast the barons
Who rule the price of coal.
Come set the roast before us,
And we will eat our fill,
And bid the traveller welcome
With heartiest good will
But, # he will rot tarry,
Well still feel some relief
Considering how Chicago
Has raised the price of beef

The yyny of the Kicker.

The Way of the Kicker.
When things are runnin' smoothly,
All nicely oiled an slick,
There comes great temptation
TO start little kick
YOU'RE kind o. tired o. quaffin'
From n nectar-aden cup,
You want n little ginger.
60 you go an stir things up.
You're hungry fur excitement
You're tired of hum-drum life:
You're seized with an ambition
Fur to lead strenuous life
An when you've raised a rumpus,
An done the best you could,
You're feeln' somewhat better
Cause you've reused the neighborhood.
But when you've had excitement
Fur a day or so, you find
That you'd go TO amy trouble
To regain your peace o. mind.
An when the years find matters
Again runnn' slick,
Fur q. week or SO, you're wllin'
Not to start another kick.

Is it therefore amy wonder that tie
vast multitude of people who have been
cured of chronic catarrh by Peruna are

THE LIFE OF BIG GUNS.
Admiral O'NeiIl Says a Hundred Shots
Is Not the Limit.

Admiral DWELL Says a Hundred Shots
is Not the Limit.
From the Chicago Record.
There have been some interesting and
mysterious stories in circulation about the
short lives of the big guns that are used
on our battle ships and coast Notifications
One of the yarns most frequently told is
that the thirteen-inch gun, which carries
ton of metal for twelve or fifteen miles,
can only be fired 100 times with safety
because the tremendous pressure destroys
the cohesive power of the metal and thus
weakens it and renders 1t liable to explode
These stories have got into books. and the
''1oo-fring fallacy'' is accepted by some of
the ablest authorities on ordnance. The
big Krupp gun at the worlds fair in Chi
cage was an object of even greater inter
est when visitors were told that it had been
fired sixteen times and couldn't be fired
again without danger of explosion because
the metal of which 1t is made had become
"nerveless."
Admiral O'Neill. chief of ordnance of the
Navy Department. says this is all hum
bug. THE only damage suffered by the
big guns from frequent firing Is the wear
ing out of the rifle grooves, he says. land
that is easily repaired. The gun can either
be rified over again or 1t can be .tubed-.
that is. rifle tube can be fitted into the
bore. as is frequently done In England
and the gun is good new
There Is no such thing as a gun getting
nerveless,' continued the admiral. THE
metal of which ii is made Is not injured by
firing. Some of our guns have been fired
100 times without showing any injury or
wear We do not know how long they
will last, except that the rifling has to be
renewed when II is worn out. but we have
never had a gun wear out in our navy,
and therefore cannot speak from expert
ence, and many of our guns have been fired
several hundred times
The ordnance experts of the army estI-
mate that the 12-inch guns the coast
fortiticationS be fired 200 times with
out being refined, but this is only specula-
ton. They have never had any expert
cnce in that line. None of the big guns be-
longing to the United States has ever worn
