NEEDS A LARGER FORCE.
First Annual Report Of the Paymaster
General of the Navy

Urgent recommends ton is made by Rear
Admiral Fl. r. b. Harris in his first annual
report as paymaster general of the navy
for an increase i'll the naval supply fund to
enable the bureau of supplies and accounts
to respond promptly to the numerous emer-
gency calls which it receives from the navy.
The present fund of 81, 10o,oD0, the paymas-
ter general declares is totally inadequate
to fulfill the purpose for which it au-
thorized and he recommends that it be in
creased to $lO33.GJ0. To further augment
the fund he asks that the proceeds of all
condemned and obsolete supplies with a
few exceptions, be carried to it's credit.
To relieve the strngency of officers in the
pay corps Rear Admiral Harris recon-
mends that the vacancies existing in the
grade of assistant paymaster be filled at
once. ''Only young men of good standing
and education, he says, should be Sc
lected for these positions. and l cannot too
strongly urge that business experience
should also be "A prerequisite condition pre-
liminary to appointment"
Admiral Harris says that the new ration
provided in the naval appropriation act for
the year 1903 has proved of great benefit to
the enlisted force of the navy and has en-
abled the general messing system to be
successfully inaugurated The government
now subsists the men entirely, where for
merly they were required to contribute to
the support of the various berth deck
messes-a system which led to many abuses
and serious drain on the limited re-
sources of the men.
In advocating an increase of clerical
force Admiral Harris says:
I'm conclusion, beg to state that the i'm
mense volume of work incident to the ham
ding of thousands of proposals, contracts
and acquisitions. the great mass of CORE
spondence, and the accounting for expendi-
lures involving nearly sS5,000, 600. as shown
by the accompanying statistical exhibits
has been accomplished by the bureau only
through the efficiency. fidelity and zeal OF
it's Office force as Mhole-of1cers and en-
ployes alike working under great disadvan-
tages through lack of both room and ade-
quate clerical assistance. The assignment of

ing has to some extent ameliorated these
conditions; but the bureau is still cramped
and file and storage room Is greatly needed.
Furthermore, the clerical force is entirely
insufficient to meet the requirements of the
bureau. and in order to keep the rapidly
growing work from falling further in ar
rears many clerks perform habitually over
time, holiday and night work, which should
not be required or expected. l therefore
recommend that the additional clerks for
whom estimates have been submitted should
be provided, as the increase asked for is
sufficient only for present actual needs.

and learn how 1t can be done.
A. A. Boyce, farmer living three
and a half miles from Trenton, Mo-,
says: IA severe cold settled in my
kidneys and developed SO quickly that
I was obliged to lay off work on account
of the aching in my back and sides.
For time / was unable to walk at all,
and every makeshift | tried and all the
medicine / took had not the slightest
effect. My back continued to grow
weaker until was unfit for anything.
Mrs. Boyce noticed Doan's Kidney Pills
advertised as a sure-cure for just such
conditions and one day when in Tren-
ton she brought a box home from
Chas. A. Fosters drug store. I followed
the directions carefully when taking
them and must say was more than
surprised and much more gratifed to
notice the backache disappearing
gradually until it finally stopped"
A FREE TRIAL of this great kidney
medicine which cured Mr.. Boyce will
be mailed on application to any part
of the United States. Address Foster
Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. For sale by
all druggists, price 80 cents per box.

- HE message Of John was the
same to all. People from all
classes and conditions in life sought
him out in his wilderness retreat.
There were the religious teachers and
great numbers of common people,
there were the rich and the poor, the
public officials and the soldiers. And
to one and all, the message of John
the Baptist was repent ye," "bring
forth therefore fruits meet for xepen-
tance." And to all the world to-day
the same message sounds forth. "Re-
pentye." Bring forth therefore fruits
meet for repentance. Repentance and
the evidences of that repentance were
the necessarypreparations for the COM
ing of the Lord. Jesus entering Jeru-
salem as the King rode over pathway
strewn with palm branches and gar
ments of the enthusiasts who hailed
Him as King. But the pathway over
which Jesus rides to the soul of man
is one which is paved with repentance
and the fruits which are meet for that
repentance. God is no respecter of
persons, and His Son travels but one
road on His way to the soul. All alike
are called to repentance, and no path
way of good resolutions, or good works,
or high moral living, or high ideals or
aims, be that pathway paved ever so
smoothly, will tempt the Lord to pass
over 1t. But repentance draws the
Saviour quickly. His coming isnot de-

intense Journalism and deN,..
ceremonial traditions, but the panIa
way over which He was to pass was to
be paved with the changed hearts and
altered lives of the penitents. Religion
was to be cast into new mold and all
life was to feel its vitalizing influence.
Is there less need to-day for Johns
message of "repent ye; bring forth
therefore fruits meet for repentance"
than there was when that message
the element of genuine repentance
been lost in greater or less degree from
the Christian life and the Christian re-
ligion? Is it not true that the great
majority of the Christians of to-day
have their periods of emotional re-
pentance, and, in response to
troubled conscience because of way
wardness and faithlessness, express
contrition in the public meeting or in
the private audience of the heart, and
then resolve to do better, but who
never get beyond the point of lip re-
pentance and good resolves? How is it
in your own case?
CAUL was sorry for his act of DISC
y bedience which cost him the sharp
