THE SOUNDS OF BULLETS.
Small Balls Hiss. Spnt and Whirr-
Noises That Are Trying to
the Nerves.

In these days when the arms of the
armies of the world are changing and
the small jacketed bullet is taking the
place of the lead bullet that smashed
into its objective like a huge rock
crashing in,o mud puddle, IL is inter.
esting to note the different sounds
these small balls make in passing
through the air as compared with
their greater forefatherS. On this
head, says the Milwaukee Journal,
Col. Philip Reade, of the army, who
heard all kinds on the wild hills OF
San Juan before Santiago. says:
The Mauser projcctiics, ike all
others from hand portable firearms
OF projection, have a hum rha; can be
heard after they are past and ceased
to be dangerous to you. The projec-
tile, you know, travels faster than
sound. You also know that an arrow
is an arm Of projection. ~ bow is an
arm of projection, but bow is not a
tircarm of projection. Its beginning
is gradual, but the sound ending is
instantaneous; its beginning and end,
ing are pitched a little lower than its
middle. The MauScr has a long 2-z-2-
2-z-z-eu when It passes hy YOU. 1t is
not noisy enough to alarm You until

Rams Horn Blasts.

There is room in Gods sympathy
for all our sorrows.
Gods power is given only fo- Gods
purposes.
The lights of the world ought to be
the leaders of men.
= The world must Judge the kingdom
of heaven by it's citizens.
There is no faith without the CO.
operation of heart and head.
If men do all for the glory of God
He will do all for the good of man.
1t makes much difference whether
q man has great desires or whether
he desires greatness.-Ram's Horn.
