ENGLAND'S FIRST SHIP.
Great Harry Was the COuntry's Pres
mier Fighting Machine.

mier Fighting Machine.
Of the first ship, properly speaking,
of the British navy, known as the
Great Harry, the following particu-
lars are given in an old number of the
Mechanics Magazine, dated Oct. %,
1923:
The Great Harry was built by King
Henry VII at a cost of f14,O0O, and
was burned at Woolwich, through acct
dent, in 1853.
Though King Henry, as well as
other princes, hired many ships, ex-
elusive of those which the different
seaports were obliged to furnish, he
seems thus to have been the first king
who thought of avoiding this incon-
venience by raising such a force as
might be at all times sufficient for the
service of the state. Historians tell us
that he caused his navy, which had
been neglected in the preceding reign.
to be put in a condition to protect the
British coasts against all foreign inva-
sions, and that in the midst of pro-
found peace he always kept up a fleet
ready to act.
In August, 1912, the Regent, a ship
of 1000 tons, which was at that time
the largest vessel in the British navy,
was burned, and to replace it the
Great Harry, or, as it was also known,
the Henry Grace de Dieu, was built in
1915.
The vessel, of about 1000 tons bur-
den, was manned by $40 soldiers, 301
marines and 80 gunners. She had four
masts and portfolios on both decks and
In other parts.
Before the time of her construction
the cannon were placed above deck
and on the Prov and poop. One De-
charges, a French builder at Brest, is
said to have invented portfolios.
In list of the British navy, as it
stood on Jan. 3, 1913, the Great Harry
is said to have carried 10 brass and 103
iron pieces of ordnance.
The name of the ship is supposed to
have been changed in the reign of Ed
ward VI to Edward, which, on Aug.
26, 1862, was reported to be still lin
good case to serve" and was ordered
ito be grounded and calked once a

(BenSOns Plaster Is Pains MaSteE)

These are days of records and of the beat
ing of records. Benson's Porous Plaster, for
quickness of action and thoroughness of
cure, has no records to beat except its own.
Benson's Plaster, always the best, always
the leader, is to-day better than euer. It
sticks to the skin but never sticks in its
tracks. 1t marches on.
The people not only want to be cured
but cured quickIy-and Benson's Plaster
does it. Coughs, colds, lumbago, asthma,
bronchitis, liver and kidney complaints,
and other ills approachable by an external
remedy, yield to Benson's as ice does to heat.
Neither Belladonna, Strengthening or
Capsicum plasters are to be compared with
Benson's. AfPeople who have once tested
the merits of Benson's Plaster have no use
for any other external remedy.
More than 5000 physicians and drug,
gists (and thousand times as many non.
professional persons) have called Benson's
Plasters one of the few @ home remedies
that can be trusted.
Fifty-fve highest awards have been made
to it in competition with the best known
plasters of Europe and America. Better
proof of its merits is inconceivable. Be
sure to get the genuine.

Historical Divisions of Time.

For convenience time is, by his
torians, usually divided into three
great eras-ancient, medieval Tor mid
dle) and modern. The ancient period
Is considered to extend from the earli-
est times down to the fall of the Ro-
man empire in the west in A. d. 476;
the medieval from that date to the
discovery of America by Columbus in
1892 and the modern from that time to
the present. Some historians prefer to
put the end of the medieval period at
the capture of Constantinople by the
Turks, about 40 years earlier than the
Columbus event. The dark ages are
often held to be coeval with the me-
di@val era, but some authorities think
that the term should be applied only
to the part of the era extending from
the downfall Of the empire of Charlie
magne, in the ninth century, onward.

BENEATH THE STAIRWAY.

Ladies' World has presented a number
of sketches which are an attempt to
combine some original ideas with
others whose chief motive is conven-
fence. Among them are the two here
described. ~
In hundreds of houses having stair
ways with straight runs at one side OF
the hall there is dark space left be-
meath the stairway that is anything
but desirable. This is usually utilized
as place to stow away coats, capes,
jackets, rubbers and umbrellas, and
such use of it is all right if proper
treatment is given to the front Of the
opening. Instead of a yawning cavern
appearing when one enters the hall, let
there be built an attractive partition
beneath the stairway that shall inclose
the space to be used for wearing ap-
parel.
The illustration shows one way to do
this. A low doorway is made where
curtain can be hung, while about this
is fretwork. Two drawers to hold
shoes, rubbers, storm hats, capes, ETC.,
are placed in the lowest part of the
space, their top serving as a shelf
within the closet. In the highest part
of the space are hooks for hanging up
wearing apparel. The wood should
harmonic with the rest of the hall OR
may be painted if the hall is painted.
When the arrangement of the hall
does not permit of a built in seat, and
where the floor room is ample, a hall
settle is decidedly attractive and also
decidedly convenient, if, like the one in
the illustration, it has an open space
beneath it for the accommodation Of
rubbers and storm clothing and a
drawer where the tennis rackets and
balls can be placed when coming in
from a game. b
This settle is simple Of construction,
but as substantial in appearance as the
oak of which it is made. Its lack OF
fancy ornamentation and carving can
be made up by giving it beautiful
surface finish. to which oak wood
lends itself so perfectly. OF course
care must be taken to have the lid
made of we'll seasoned wood, and it
must fit snugly without binding. The
hinges should be of ornamental oxidiz-
ed metal.
An open fireplace is specially attract
i've in hall. One which has the merit
of being somewhat out of the usual
run is built in a corner, and it's top re-
cedes with each course Of bricks until
it disappears in the corner at the bot
tom of the border of the wall paper.
The bricks may be the common red
pressed bricks or bricks in any Of the
very attractive colors that are now
furnished-white, black, buff, gray, etc.
The same chimney that goes up behind
this corner may be made to afford open
fireplaces in other rooms that join the
| hall.
The hall is without doubt the keynote
! Of the home within. Cheerful colors
| and delightful cleanliness should here
reign, and the chance visitor, with an
agreeable atmosphere at the very
threshold, will endeavor to bring no
note of discord to mar the harmony
| that greets him..
Furniture should be substantial and
| ornamented very little. Carpets should
be either warm in tone or of colors that
will not show dust and Of very small
| figure.
1t is an excellent plan to use stair
and floor covering of the same pattern,

marked individuality of it's own. The
