Peruna is a great family medicine.

The great wonder Of the Siberian line
Is its rate of fares-an average Of one

TWENTY YEARS FOR SLEEP.
Calculation az to Time Spent by Man
in Various Ways.

Selculot1On a. TO Time spent Dy MAN
in Various Ways.
A man with a mania for figuring and
not enough to do to keep him out Of
mischief has been making calculations
regarding the manner In which the life
Of the ordinary man. who both works
and plays is divided up.
When such a man has reached the
age Of GO he will have spent his time as
follows, according to the statistician:
Twenty years in sleep. three years and
nine months in eating; seventeen years
six months in working: seven years and
six months in pursuit Of pl. asure; six
years and three months in walking and
other exercise; two years and six
months In making his toilet. and six
months in doing absolutely nothing.
The item Of toilet he subdivides into
seven months shaving. eleven months
washing and one year dressing.
Persons automatically inclined
can find the flaws in these fgures-if
there are any; most people will be con-
tent to take them on faith. This re-
markable dissecter Of human life by the
mathematical process has also dis
covered, he says. that the average man
speaks 11.SOO.OOO words a year and
shakes hands 1900 times. thereby
using up energy enough in fifty years
to lift $500 tons.
The amount Of force a man uses up
In winking is truly appalling. Our sta
tistician calculates that the average
man In a single year opens and shuts
his eyes no less than 100000 times.
and in doing this uses force enough al
together to raise m electric car filed
with passengers. Consequently. IN
sixty years he develops enough force to
wink sixty trolley cars off the track.
This is the moderate. average sober.
respectable man. mind you. not the
frivolous person who winks at all the
pretty girls he sees. The wink pow
err developed by 4 firtatious man
probably is enough to run the new sub
way system.-St. Louis Republic.

POLICY OF GOOD ENSE.
application of the Navy COmmends
Itself to the People.

Kansas City Star.
The ship-building programme for next
year as presented by the House committee
on naval affairs cannot be considered eX-
travagant in view Of the armament of 9TH
er nations. It's important contemplated adj
ditions to the navy consist of four fine
armor-clads-two ships of the line and two
cruisers. If these are authorized the main
naval strength of the United States will
consist of twenty battleships and ten arm
ored cruisers. This is a modest force when
compared with the strength of the United
Kingdom, France or Germany.
THE reasons for the maintenance Of an
efficient navy are obvious. The United
States by it's position is safe from attack
by land. 1t does not need TO recruit a large
army for self-protection. Its field of oper-
atoms in the event of war is upon the sea.
While the probability of any attack upon
this government by a foreign power is ex-
tremely small, contingencies might arise
which would lead to a conflict. An army
of volunteers may be gathered within a
few weeks. 1t takes three years to build a
battleship. Therefore, it is necessary that
a navy be equipped in time of peace.
The policy which seems most likely to
involve the country in war is the Monroe
doctrine. If the United States is to main
OkAAN Al NbAA - ~ ~ " ANoNg -
resort TO arms if the necessity arises. Moral
protests make inspiring reading, but they
do not convince foreign powers. AS Pres
ident Roosevelt said in his message to
Congress-: THE navy offers us the only
means of making our in~sistence upon the
Monroe doctrine anything but a subject for
derision to whatever nation chooses to dis
regard it." America has had one lesson in
the folly Of allowing the country to adopt
a policy that led toward a conflict without
taking measures in self-defense. 1t has not
been lost on the President.
In his History of the Naval War of
1872 Mr.. Roosevelt, then just out of col
lege, wrote his contempt for the doctri-
naire methods of Jefferson and Madison,
who saw the United States drifting toward
the war for commercial independence with
out preparing it for the conflict. 1t will be
m that the Jeffersonians, on ac-
cession to power. sold all the ships of the
navy except thirteen. The redeeming sea
fights of the war of 1912 were won by the
frigates built by the hated Federalists. In
his first message TO Congress Mr.. Roose-
Welt suggested the naval policy forecasted
in his early book. II commends itself 10
the good sense of the American people.
The cost Of the navy is simply the pre-
MUM on the peace insurance policy of the
United States.
