to propel her at full speed would have
propelled two vessels of the same size

At full speed her coal consumption was
20 tons an hour, at 10 knots it was about
IL tons. This means that at full speed
she would move .S5 knot for each ton Of
coal burned under her boilers, while at
10 knots the distance would be doubled
for the same coal consumption. This il

EXPENSE OF OCEAN SPEED.
Experiments Recently Made by the
British Navy Prove of
Great Value.

What it costs to increase the speed of
a ship by one knot has lately been de-
termined with great accuracy in the
steam trials of the British armored
cruiser Cape of Good Hope, says the
New York Times. On her full power
trial this vessel of IA 100 tons displace-
ment attained a mean speed of 1905
knots an hour. BY the speed curves
plotted from the trial results it appears
that to go from half speed-11.0 knots
to full speed-23.05 knots-needed,
roughly, $4,000 additional horsepower,
of which the late knot alone absorbed
1921 horsepower.
In other words, to increase the speed
of this cruiser from % to % knots con-
sumed as much power as was needed

Ar 49,, OIeo Decision.

The Iowa courts have just decided a
very interesting point in regard to
oleo having slightly yellow color. 1t
has been asserted and believed that
butter could be incorporated with oleo,
thus giving it a color legally. Some
oleo very slightly yellow was seized
in Iowa and the sellers prosecuted.
The oleo men argued that the little
color in the butter did not come in as a
result of artificial coloring. The prose-
cutors commended that it made no diff
ference how it got there, as long as it
was present The judge and jury took
this view of it.

ParaRn Dip for Cheese.

The parafin method of putting up
cheese is gaining ground, some of the
meetings of cheese makers having de-
cIared strongly in its favor. 1t costs a
little more than the common salting
and binding process, but is considered
far more satisfactory and effective. The
paraffin is applied when the cheese is
being cured and made ready for ship
ment Some dairy instructors advise
that the cheese should be left on the
shelves in the factory for several weeks
in moderate temperature to grow firm
before 1t is packed away, but the advo-
Gates of the paraffining method think

The Latest Style Of Woman.

The new style of no hips" promul-
gated by Madame Baker, president of
the National Dressmakers' association,
reveals the serious disadvantage of in
daptability TO specific cases. d limita-
ton which was most successfully met
by the vogue which the madame ta-
booes. While it is easy enough to sup
ply hips TO a woman who lacks those
appurtenances of the feminine anatomy
not all Of the ingenious devices OF the
modiste's art can subdue or eliminate
hips where nature has provided them.
By the edict of Madame Baker the
correct woman must be slim and
snug and sVelte. She must appear in
an almost skintight gown-an eel-like
costume, if you choose to call it So
and. above all. she must be innocent of
hips. Now, the expert dermatolOgist
can root out hair from the facial cpl
derms; he can abolish freckles; he can
exterminate moles. and he can even
ameliorate an obstrusive nose But
hips-oh, that is different.

next fashion in women would be svelte

reasonable violence. The blouse waist

a tendency to accentuate the hips and
to make them aggressively apparent.
1 ne dressmakers have done q good deal
more in this direction than to help
nature to borrow a term from the
doctors.
In truth, the modistes have never yet
been persuaded to let nature alone
They must always work some sort of
violence to her wise and symmetrical
laws. That is what they are going to
do in jumping from the puffy woman
to the eel-like creation which Madame
Baker ordains. The notion of some
sort of a rational compromise does not
appear to have struck the feminine
autocrat who has set out to make . ii
of the women over. 1t has, seemingly,
not occurred to Madame Baker that
womanly beauty is married and defeated
by any sort of an extreme. An eel is
no better to look upon, for example,
than porpoise.
Nevertheless, the experiment of abol-
ishing Womens hips, in compliance
with d decree of fashion. will be waited
with philosophic interest. especially by
the masculine public. Much can be

with these projected tariff schedules,
Mr.. Chamberlain would say to the
! United States and Germany. Make
gates in your tariff walls for our goods,

cts
For British manufacturers it Is. in
their desperation, an attractive pro-
gramme. But it is by no means so at
tractive to the wage-earners of Eng
land. Mr.. Chamberlain is shrewd
enough to see that to win the British
electorate over to his policy will require
vigorous and perhaps prolonged
campaign of education. Politically,
there was no additional honor remain
ing for him in the Balfour cabinet. If
he is ever to achieve his life ambition
to be prime minister, he sees that he
must be distinctively the leader of a
great party. For eight years, while a
nominal LIBERAL he has sat in coali
ton cabinet. With superb generalship
he has led the easy-going Balfour to
accept his startling programme in
principle, at least, if not in detail
and when the crash comes in the next
election and the Balfour government is
succeeded by the liberals. Mr.. Cham
berlain will have at his hands the
dismembered unionist party as ma
terial for his new tariff party. The
programme is far-sighted and indi-
Gates Mr.. Chamberlain's Willingness to
work long and patiently to accomplish
his ends.
1r the light of these facts, we can
see no cause for the jubilation of the
liberal papers at Mr.. Chamberlain's
resignation. His retirement is by no
means downfall" The cables quote
the London Daily News of Friday
morning as saying:
THE wrong and injustice of the past
eight years have brought retribution
to the government more swift and
more desolating than brain could have
conceived, and they have brought it
through the agency of the man who
has beeu the evil influence at the back
of all. Chamberlain has wrecked the
tory party and pulled the whole fabric
of unionism to the dust. The present
generation will not see it rehabiiitated.
But Chamberlain has also wrecked
himself. His career. whose memorial
is shameful war and the wreck of two
historic parties. is closed. His letter
to Balfour is the letter of a gambler
who has thrown his last coin and
lost"
1t is very probable, indeed, that Mr..
Chamberlain retirement from power
will be for a protracted period-ionger.
in fact, than he expects: for, as Mr..
Henry Asquith. the liberal leader was
quoted in yesterdays Republican as
saying. THE duty of liberals to de-
fend free trade is as plain and urgent
as it was before" and it is as certain
as anything in human affairs can be
that on the new issue the liberal party
will be returned to power. But Mr.. /
Chamberlain at 6T is as vigorous
there is nothing to justify the assertion
of the London paper that his career is
closed. He may never succeed in per-
suading England to abandon free trade
for preferential tariffs, but during the
next few years he will be about the
most conspicuous figure in British
politics, just as he has occupied the
center of the stage throughout the past
decade

times during the session and are espe-

days session was almost identical with
that of the regular days, and while the
children all We're made to understand
that they were not coming to kinder

to turn yellow and the long, bright
summer is over, there was no special
celebration or ceremony.

making paper hats, of many and brill

things. Yesterday the bright and pleas

the chubby hands that wrought them,
and were carried home in all the pride

made by the kindergarten children are
