The Wastes of the Body.

Every seven days the blood, muscles
and bones of a man OF average size
lose two pounds Of wornout tissue.
This waste cannot be replenished and
the health and strength kept up with
out perfect digestion, When the stom-
ach and digestive organs fail to perform
their functions, the strength lets down,
health gives way, and disease sets up.
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure enables the stom-
ach and digestive organs to digest
and assimilate all OF the whole
some food that may be eaten into the
kind Of blood that rebuilds the tissues
and protects the health and strength of
the mind and body. Kodol cures Indiges-
ton, Dyspepsia and all stomach trou-
bes. 1t is an ideal spring tonic. Sold
by Growers City drug store.

SPEED OF SHIPS. :s5,,ssssa
The Way Sailors Ascertain How
Many Knots They Are Going.

Many Knots They Are Going.
"How do you ascertain the speed Of
a ship" is a question frequently ad-
dressed to naval men, and an explana-
ton will therefore probably be Of in
terest to many readers. There are sew
eral methods, says Army and Navy H.
lustrated, the commonest and most an
cient being by the use of the log. This.
instrument consists of three parts, the;
logship, the line and the marks. The
logship is piece Of wood about halfs
an inch thick and shaped like a quad
rant, with piece of lead let in round
the circular edge to make 1t float per-
pendicularly in the water. 1t is hung;
by lines at each angle, the three lines
being joined together about two feetl
from the logship. Two of the lines
are securely fixed to the ship, and the
other has bone peg at the end, which,
being pushed into a hole In the ship,
temporarily fastens it there. 3
From the point of juncture of the
tree lines sufficient length is meas
ured, generally about 100 feet, to take
the logship well clear of the ships
wash This is called the ''stray line"
and is marked with piece of bunting.
From the bunting is measured AZ feet
3 inches and the line marked here with
n piece of leather. Then another Al
feet 3 inches is measured off and
marked with two knots, then another
space the same length and marked
with three knots. Half way between
each batch of knots one single knot is
made. The log line is then ready for
use.
The space between the knots is found
from the simple little rule Of three
sum-as 5000 seconds number of Sec
onds In an hour is to twenty eight sec
onds Qength of sandglass), so are 6,0S0
feet number of feet In a nautical mile)
to the length of line required, which
works out to At feet inches
To use the log four persons are re-
quired-two men to hold the reel on
which the line is wound, the quarter
master to hold the glass and the mid
shipman of the watch to heave the log
The last named puts the peg firmly in
the logship and then gathers three or
four coils of line in his hand, sufficient
to admit of the logship being thrown
well clear of the ship. He asks, Clear
glass, quartermaster?" "Clear glass,
SIR" comes the reply, and overheard
go the logship and line, the reel rap
idly revolving. Presently the MILDLY
feels the piece of bunting passing
through his hand, and he gives the or
der, Turn" The quartermaster turns
the glass and watches the sand, while
one ''reeler' holds well over his head
so as to give the line fair play. When
the sand has run out, "Stopv' cries the
quartermaster. The midshipman grasps
the line, assisted by the other "reeler,"
and looks for the nearest knot, finding
a single one close to his hand. Then
the line is hauled in, and four knots
appear which signify that the ship is
going four and one-half knots through
the water The jerk of the line drags
the peg from the logship, which now
floats on its fat side and is easily
hauled in. When ship is going over
four knots, fourteen second glass is
used, the speed being double that
shown by the knots on the line.-Home

FIGHTING JIM" JOUETT
His Daring Exploit at Galveston Har-
Dor In 1861.

His Daring Exploit at Galveston Har-
Dor In 1851.
Rear Admiral James e. Jouett, who
died during the past year, was one of
a generation of sea fighters that are
rapidly decreasing, says the New York
Evening Post. Fighting Jim Jouett
of the American Navy" as he was pop
ularly known among naval men, had a
long and distinguished career and was
one of the most popular men in the
service. He entered the navy in 1S41
and passed through the successive
grades of the service to the outbreak
of the civil war, when he first saw ac-
tive service as a lieutenant on board
the United States frigate Santee.
Lieutenant Jouett's first daring ex-
plot took place on the night of Nov. Z,
1861. The Santee was lying off Gal
weston, Tex, and Jouett asked per-
mission to enter the harbor for the
purpose of destroying tie steamer Gen
eral Rush, which was being fitted as q
war vessel by the Confederates, and
the Royal Yacht, a small frigate,
mounting one 80 pound gun. Leaving
the Santee few minutes before mid
night with forty men in two launches,
Lieutenant Jouett pulled boldly into
the harbor. The General Rush was
moored at wharf seven miles away,
and he had to pass the Royal Yacht to
reach the vessel which he first wished
to capture.
All went well, and success seemed as
sured when Lieutenant Jouetts boat
grounded and was run into by the Sec
ond launch. The noise of the collision
aroused the crew of the Royal Yacht,
who Immediately opened fire. Jouett
saw that he could not reach the Gen
eral Rush and at once determined to
board the Royal Yacht. Twice We're
the boats hailed, but the little party
paid no heed. The boats came along
side the frigate, and Carter, Jouett's
chief gunner, sent shot from a IL
pound howitzer through the side of the
vessel at the water line and then
boarded her. The recoil of the gun
sent the launch back few boat
lengths, leaving Carter alone to face
the enemy.
With some difficulty Jouett got the
launch alongside again and went to
his gunner's rescue He barely reached
the deck of the royal yacht when he
was wounded in the arm and lung by
bayonet lashed to pole in the hands
of a Confederate. Drawing his sword,
the lieutenant felled his assailant and
jumped into the fight. The retreat was
sounded twice, but Jouett's fighting
blood was up, and he would not leave.
When finally he did go, the crew of
the Royal Yacht went with him as his
prisoners. After an exciting pull back
the two launches reached the Santee,
the men being in a state of exhaustion.
The Royal Yacht was totally destroyed.
For this action Jouett was ordered to
proceed to Washington, so that he
might "be given command worthy of
his gallantry."
During the war Admiral Jouett cap
tured a number of blockade runners,
among them being the Kate Dale, Isa-
bella and Susannah, three vessels
which were afterward sent to northern
ports and profitably sold. In 1860 he
aided in the capture of several slavers,
which were taken to Key West.
