The Dust OF Ocean.

A "dusty" ocean highway sounds al
most incredible. Yet those who are
familiar with sailing ships know that
no matter how carefully the decks may
be washed down in the morning and
how little work of any kind may be
done during the day nevertheless If the
decks are not swept at nightfall an
enormous quantity of dust will quickly
collect. OF course on the modern
liner" the burning Of hundreds of tons
Of coal every "a hours and the myriads
of footballs daily would account for
considerable accumulation Of dust, but
on a wind jammer," manned with a
dozen hands or less. no such dust pro.
ducing agencies are at work. And yet.
the records Of sailing ships show that
they collect more sea dust than does a
steamer, which is probably. accounted
for by the fact that while the dust
laden smoke blows clear of, the steamer:
the large area Of canvas spread by the.
sailer acts as dust collector.Mari-

The main points Of the new military
service bill has already been settled
upon by the government. The com
pulsory military training is to extend
through parts of two years. The fresh
recruits are to serve nine months by
themselves and one month together
with the recruits Of the previous year,
altogether ten months the first year.
Two months in the following year
completes the regular service, one
month being spent in repetitions to-
gether with the fresh recruits and one
month being devoted to new work.
This arrangements does not agree witt,
the usual conception Of rational and
eftective military training. which de-
mands the continuation of the drilling
through series Of years But politi-
cal considerations induced the govern
ment to limit the term TO two years,
the common people preferring TO finish
the the military training as early in life
and as speedily as posi- BILE.
