Destroyer of Torpedo DestrOysrs

Nineteenth Century.
 The Admiralties of the world are sur fsited with a plague of new ideas, which chase and destroy each other. NO sooner dli France build a great fotilla or tor pedo boats-crafts Of the flimslest con- struction, relying upon one weapon of attack, the torpedo, and defenseless against g'infre-thln we replied with the torpedo boat destroyer, armed with torpedoes, and also with guns, and there fore calculated to pisroe at distance it's thin-skinned and practically unarmed opponent. Before we have built as many of these vessels as 1t held we require, Russia has constructed what has been termed a destroyer of torpedo boat de stroyers." It is q ship of ten times the size of a destroyer with bigger guns, great speed. and. what Is most Import ant an armored deck to protect her vital parts from the "destroye' light guns. Similarly. France and America have spent years in experimenting to produce a submarine boat. seaw 0rthy. invisible, and a reliable engine for underwater attack with the torpedo. The idea has appealed powerfully to the French imag- inatlon, and their new creations are claimtd as triumphs. Germany views this craft in its present development with only greater contempt than the British naval officer does. At Ports mouth. as at Kial and Stettn. it Is not regarded as a serious weapon of war, except possibly for a country whose tx- ciusiye role will be defense In her own norts and not attack.

WHY ALL COUGHS
 ARE DANGEROUS
NO MATTER HOW SLIGHT.

All coughs are caused by an irritation ar inflammation of the membrane lining the air passages in the throat, bronchial tubes and lungs, and no matter how slight, are a menace to the life Of the lnoividual suffering from the same.
 All cases of bronchitis. pneumonia and consumption are in the first place con tracted through the membrane lining the air passages Everyday. especially at this season of the year. we inhale the germs of these diseases in every breath If the respiratory organs are infiamed or irritated, no matter to how small an ex- tent, these germs find Judgement on the inflamed surfaces, receive nourishment, and multiply with great rapidity.
 The germs of an ordinary cough only live from i've to nine days, during their life infiame the membrane and thus the germs of other diseases are enabled to obtain a foothold.
 Heretofore there was some excuse Tor neglecting a cough or cold. as no stom- ach me dlcine ever invented could do any thing but deaden the effects of cough germs.
 Now. however, it is only through neg fgence that these germs are allowed to exist for twenty-four hours, for Hyomei' the new dry air germicide. is the first and only remedy known that will destroy the germs causing respiratory di isease5 and which can be inhal d in the air we breathe. the method by which such rms can be reached.
 There is now no necessity for any man, woman or child suffering with coughs. colds. catarrh, croup. bronchitis or con sumption. if they will take the advice of the United States Health Reports and breathe Hyomei daily

Children of the Confectionery.

In response to the request of our state President U. D. C., give the loiio"ihs facts in regard to the organization or the Mary Custis Lee children or the Confectionery. At meeting or the nrst Virginia Chapter of Daughters Tn une town of Alexandria, Va, in isso. MISS Mary Lee Lloyd. cousin of General fitA- hugh Lee, suggested the forming ah organization of Children of the Con federacy to be named Mary Custis Lee. and to have for it's object the uniting or children and youths of the South in some work to aid and honor Confederates ana their descendants I immediately or sanized a chapter of fifty-six children, under fifteen years of age. and sent on their names for a charter. Miss Lloyo had the society incorporated by the Vir- einia Legislature, and the charter sent me. dated March 18th, 1898, was the nrst issued. Alabama has thus the honor of having the second Chapter or Chiidren of the Confederacy in the soutn' the charter being No. 1. Those who may wish to obtain charters and applica- tion banks for same. may do so by ad- dressing Miss Lloyd, 22o North Wash- ington Street Alexandria, Va.
 The rules governing the chartered chap- ters are as follows: Each chapter IS independent of the Daughters or the Confederacy, the children electing theii own officers, consisting of president yice-president, treasurer and secretary Besides these a directress is elected, whe must be present at every meeting. The fees are, an initiation fee fixed by the directres, one cent monthly per capita and fftyAcents yearly to Miss Lloyd. the president general. Each chapter selects a local name and works under the con trol of the directress. The badges are 10 cents each, and can be obtained from Miss Lloyd. As the years move on ana the members pass the age of b. no fees are demanded though they can still alo in the work, and attend the meetings.
 The following hints may aid the direc' tress in giving interest to the meetings Have a program ready prepared oy tns children consisting of recitations, songs 'and answers to questions relating tt the war. At each meeting teach some Confederate song. allowing the boys wn' cannot sing, to whistle an accompani' ment to the plano. Furnish simple re treatments and then allow the childrer to play games.

find that pictures interest them greatly, so I placed on the walls of the room in which the members of my Sam Davis Chapter meet the large, handsome picture of the Inauguration of President Davis, the portraits of Lee, Davis and Jackson and other Confederate im- mortals. l have one also of Charles Broadway Rouss, and Winnie Davis. The veteran Is invaluable for likenesses of our. Confederate officers \as we'll as privates.
 The importance of this organization of children cannot be overestimated as a nursery for the training of future Daughters and Sons of the Confederacy: and the faithful directress is we'll repaid in the thought that she is assisting In teaching the true history of the South, whose leaders earnestly believed in the right of secession, and whose rank and file fought for their homes when invaded by a Northern foe.

Nnt the Father.

A strong sense of the proprieues on Ine nart of a provincial clergyman of Eng land was responsible for a curious entry in the program of an organ recital not long ago. There once lived a composer who used to call himself Clemens non Pana to avoid confusion with the pope of the same name. In his program the orKanist had included piece by this composer, but the vicar, on looking over the proof thought the name terribly IT. bald, so he instantly altered It to Ciem- ems junior.

The R. E. Rodes Chapter, at Tuscaloo- sa, conferred sixty Crosses of Honor on Confederate Veterans at the court house on the 18th of February.
 r The following letter shows how much the veterans appreciate these little Crosses of Honor, and the organization that confers them.
 Here is a veteran who got leave of ab- sence from his business and travelled SC me distance to get his cross.
 "The Confederate's Farewell" of which he writes, is the beautiful little poem written by Mrs. Martha s. Gielow. who left few copies here to be given to the veterans.
 Another feature of the occasion that was thoroughly enjoyed that day was the nice hot coffee and sandwiches which the Daughters served to the veterans before they started on their homeward jour- ney.
 The veteran received his cross at the court house on the 18th. Many such let. ters are being received by the Daugh- ters:

Pelham Chapter! BirminghamL

On January IS Pelham Chapter, Bir- mjngham, had expected to present sixty six crosses of honor, but owing to un- avoidable delays, the crosses could not be obtained by that date, so, according to the new rulings at the Wilmington convention, they cannot be presented un- til Memorial Day. This will make total of over 300 crosses presented by Pelham Chapter within one year.
 Birmingham was rejoicing over the promised visit of our President, Mrs. Dowdell, who VAS expected to reach the city Monday night, and several enter tainments had been arranged in her honor.
 Mrs. John c. Whitfield was to enter. tain at reception Wednesday after noon complimentary to Mrs. Dowdell, and Mrs. J. A. Rountree, Recording Secretary, was to give red and white luncheon on Saturday to the officers of Pelham Chapter, with Mrs. Dowdell as guest of honor. Mrs. Rose G. Lewis, Corresponding Secretary, had also ex- pected to have Mrs. Dowdell for lunch with her during her stay in the city. first visit to Birmingham since her cleo tion to the Presidency, Pelham Chapter was delighted with the opportunity of knowing personally one who, on account of .her untiring zeal and energy, mas al ways received the hearty support Of the Birmingham Chapter. Mrs. Dowdell has many true personal friends in our chap ter here. so that we all felt 1t distinct loss when she was detained in Opelika by the serious illness of her. mother and we sincerely trust that the postpone ment of her visit will be of short aura tion.
