SENSIBLE WAY TO CURE CATARRH
Hyomei Medicates Air You Breathe and Kills All Catarrhal Germs Costs Nothing Unless It Cures.

Do not take medicines into the ston- ach to kill catarrhal germs in the head and throat Air alone can reach these germs. Medicated with Hyomei and breathed through the neat inhaler that comes with every outfit, the air goes to the most remote air cells of the head, throat and lungs, and completely destroys the disease germs. Hyomei is the only sensible, yet scientific way to cure ca tarrh. Other remedies may fall; Hyomei will cure.
 It helps at once. and you get the vital izing and invigorating effects from the nrst Few breaths of Hyomei If it should happen that Hyomei did not give you the same good effects that it has in many other cases right here at home, Mir E. G.. Fowler will refund your money without question or argument. You will be the sole judge as to whether Hyomei costs you a penny or not.
 The complete outfit. consisting of medicine dropper. and inhaler that can be carried In the purse or vest pocket and a bottle of Hyomei sells for only one dollar. The inhaler will last a lifetime and extra bottles of Hyomei can De oo- tained, if needed, for fifty cents.
 When you get a Hyomei outfit, MT Fowler will give you signed receipt. agreeing to refund the money in case It does not cure catarrh and other diseases of the respiratory organs. This is the strongest evidence that he can ofrer as to his faith in Hyomei-to pay for It him self in case it doez nok cnrAs

and still another, carefully observed is the wisdom of blockading a port by hay ing the force we'll outside the normal trajectory of shore batteries and employ ing the auxiliaries of the feet-the weapons of opportunity"-such as de- stroyers. miners and channel blocking ships. whenever the Opportunity is at hand. Such secondary operations play. A part in hastening the successful attack and shattering the morale of surprised defence. but 1t must be remembered that they never have been. and never can be, decisive. The struggle that settles the command of the sea, and with 1t the fate or the war and sometimes of nations. is fought by armored ships on the fighting line. All experience teaches this. The moment Admiral Cervera's fleet was de- stroyed.' writes an expert, ''the war was practically at an end, unless Spain had elected to fight on to save the point of honor."
 Whatever idealists may in the gayety of the hour interject into professional discussion. this war in the Far East is only at its beginning, and none of It's lessons Is especially new. It has already proved what a temporary command of the sea may effect. by giving the side with tho greatest initiative and luck nearly uninterrupted transport of many army divisions to the important bases of land campaigns. It is probable that until the Russian fleet is repaired and reinforced in the summer these lines of communlca- tion will. with Japan's superior force, be kept open wider than church door and as free as the air. To her armored ships and to her first surprise at Port Arthur must be attributed the present success. though other agencies have .loomed fair ly large owing to favoring conditions that should never have existed. As the out come of certain auxiliary work, bold and daring and sure to capture the imagina- ton. an attempt has been made to decry battleships because they have proved so vulnerable. and as a consequence we all have suffered from much jeiune quota tion concerned with David and Goliath.
 Have Been a Surprise.
 The events of the war have been a surprise and undoubtedly have caused an unsettlement of opinion among many in telligent laymen, whose interest in the navy Is keen and whose knowledge of

clear field of fire and cover for troops. Artillery fire to be effective must be con centrated and the enemy should be com |,pelled if he attacks at all to make a direct frontal attack This advance should be obstructed In the field of fire, but in a manner not to leave this free for the defensive to attempt an offensive movement. Means for Offensive returns against countermining Aoperation must also be provided. This last requires eith- CT swarm of torpedo boats or batteries for operating the torpedoes from the shore. The others are concerned with the service of the guns and the men.
 The work required of the defence is to keep the. attacking fleet so far from the coast forts as to forbid 1t while firing on the works from ,bombarding the inner Niiarbor. and to prevent It from coming so close to the true harbor's mouth that it can run past and force an entrance.
 The first of these. duties relates to the

artillery alone; the second is concerned both with guns and mines. The guns, therefore. should be capable of destroying large battle ships at comparatively long ranges, and the destruction of cruisers and torpedo craft at shorter range; that is one condition presupposes the pos session of long range high power cannon. the other the possession of light rapid fire pieces. Coast artillery cannot always exert the activity necessary to prevent an energetic enemy from running past or quickly reaching close range; consequent ly this advance must be delayed or pre- vented by obstacles placed in the fore ground, so as to hold the enemy in the zones of greatest fire effect. This is the function of mine fields. Mines are usu- ally planted in two distinct zones-the outer one In a widely extended arc cov- ering the entrance at. a considerable dist ance; the inner. or more retired. at the entrance proper. As such submarine mines are incapable of offensive action, In the military sense. they can easily be removed. and hence must be defended by artillery.
 Channel ObatFuctl0nE.
 The various kinds of channel ob- struetions are torpedoes or mines. sub marine dams and sea barrieades. of which the mines are the most impor- tant and eueOslVe. Ihey are BedleraiiY electrically exploded contact or obser- vation mines. the former being fired by contact when a ship strikes 1t. and the latter from shore when the ship Is directly over the mine. In the second case the position of the ship with ref erence to the mines may be obtained by observation from shore or the ship may automatically announce her ar rival over the mine by closing an cleo tric connection that records the fact in the mining casemate and thus locate

 Auxiliary types assist directly or in- directly in such endeavors. These are the armored cruiser. the protected cruiser that is not a hybrid, the scout, the tor pedo craft and the submarine. Each has an importance that varies within wide iimits-the armored cruiser for example, being a little lower in value than the battle ship, while the submarine Is yet struggling in the uncertain and some what braggart stage of experiment. Each has however, valid reason for exist ence, a special zone of employment and in accordance with the demands of both each carries in It's own way to its high est development some of the many aual- ities that must, as whole and as the

 This acceptance of a master war en- ergy has been slow of recognition and of growth though it was inevitable and irresistible from the beginning. The pri- macy accorded is, 1t must be remem- bered, neither a matter of hidebound tradition nor of that sluggish obstinacy or ultra conservatism of naval thought which is so often and so unfairly charged with opposing all new ideas, not because they are not fortified by precedent. The established supremacy of the battleship has higher claims to recognition. It Is grounded on the hard and fast lessons of sea history, on principles of strategy that are nearly immutable and on experiences costly in lives and treasure. It must be a part of the fleet because 1t supplies the main defiance threatened country can deliver on the outer line and the strongest support 1t can offer to premed- ttated but sudden assault.

 Order in Place of Disorder. In order to substitute order for disorder, | to conserve energy by using it properly, and notably to discover the surest immu- n!ty from the riotous and blind thrush of fire ships, the Dutch declared in favor of a tactical formation either ahead or abreast; that is, in file, or in a single | frontal formation. This tactical disposi- | ton of the forces is known historically as the Line" It secured definite re- suits. as it reduced the zone where the dreaded fire ships could operate; it
 brought the ships under better control, and 1t gave the feet a shape for attack or defence. for advance or retreat. that insured the utilization of it's utmost en- ergies.
 In this establishment of the line each ship was assigned. a fixed place. which. under normal circumstances. she was ex- pected to maintain. and therefore when
 there was a, great variation in the strength of the ships the weakest had
 an even chance of finding herself en- gagged with the strongest of the enemy. This necessarily excluded the smaller
 types from the line and made 1t consist only of ships fitted to fight in the line. "
 from this was derived the old titles of the
 master vessels. ships of the hne," or
 line of battle ships" and by strict hered-
 ity this distinction is found in our day,
 somewhat curtailed. where the leading armored type is known as a battle
 ship"
 With the great number of vessels gath
 cred in the fleets of the sail era the sin
 gle line formation was sure to prove too
 expensive for easy handling. notably in a
 shift of wind, when miles of sea room separated the van and rear. To escape
 the dilemma the line was kept handy and
 navigable by decreasing the number and | increasing the size and power of indi- vidual ships. Hulls grew in dimension. | solidity and strength. masts lowered and yards spread until at last the fleet in- cluded ships mounting as many as 120 | guns of various classes. These maximum

 Submarine boats will undoubtedly play an important part some day ln harbor and coast defense and attack 1t Is reported that the Russians have in Port Arthur several of new types oroba bly, of the general design shown in the principal illustration of this ar ticle This new Russian submarine IS thus described by Fyfe in the second edition of his work on submarine war fare:
 The Russian government is carrying out a series of experiments with a new submarine boat that has been invented by Lieutenant Kolbassleff of the In- perial Navy. He intends his boat to be carried on battle ships. and there are many more experts who believe thls will be the best method of utilizing un- derwater craft for the purpose of ee- fensive warfare. They do not agree with those who urge the construction of larger and more powerfully equipped vessels.
 Only q Small Craft.
 Lieutenant ROlbassieff's craft Is small boat of twenty tons. fifty feet in length and four feet In diameter. She Is composed of nine sections. joined to- gether by bolts, thus permitting the craft to be taken to pieces and slowed in the hold of the ship in case of neces- sity. The three middle sections contain the machinery. The armament win com sist of two torpedoes. The boat is pro- pelled entirely by electricity and Is to be used exclusively for harbor defense work or for operations within a few miles of the battle ship on which she Is carried. The inventor claims that his vessel has great longitudinal stability.
