HOW ToRPEDoEs ARE MADE.

The Whitehead an Intricate Machine of
 Nearly Two Thousand Parts.
 The Whitehead torpedo, built for the United States government, is made chiefly of steel, and nearly in the shape of porpoise. Its greatest diam eter is nearly eighteen inches. It is made in two sizes or lengths of about twelve feet and seventeen feet, respee- lively. The weight of the shorter one, ready for discharge, is nearly half a ton. As constructed by the FEE. w.. Bliss company, of Brooklyn, these tor pedoes are made in five sections, con- taining in all nearly two thousand sep arate pieces. Beginning at the head of the machine, which is sometimes called the business end, we find one hundred and ten pounds of wet gun-cotton packed above a bronze partition. This cotton is inserted in the form of disks, which are pierced through their centers to make room for a little brass case of dry gun-cotton priming. The front end of the dry gun-cotton is pierced to re- ceive the detonating primer, containing illuminate of mercury, and capped with a percussion cap. In front of the pri- i1iSI If1oC ID oClCWCQ ci w cil llOSt, WHICH operates automatically when the torpe- do strikes the target by driving the fir- ing pin against the cap and so effecting a series of explosions ending with the wet gun-cotton.
 Back of the head is the flash which occupies more than half the length of the machine. It is filled with air com pressed to a pressure of 1850 pounds to the square inch, or to one-ninetieth of it's ordinary volume. The escape of this air through a small valve leading to the engines and motors, placed in a compartment back of the flash, furnish es all the power for the locomotion of the machine.
 Between the flask and the engine there is a very important compartment containing the mechanism for automat- ically regulating the depth of immer- sion-keeping it constant according to a setting of the machine. This device was never patented, but was kept a se- cret, the details of it being sold to the various maritime nations. The princi- pie of it is this There are several apertures through the walls of the ma chine which are covered by diaphragms on thin rubber The pressure of the water outside which increases with the depth, pushes these inward according ly, and at the same time pushes pistons that rest behind the rubber dia- phragms. The motion of the pistons is communicated to horizontal rudders so that a slight deviation from the as- signed depth will immediately incline them, and thus the machine is raised or depressed as required. A pendulum suspended in the same compartment operates similarly to keep the machine in a horizontal position.-Review of Re- views.

Tip for the Bows.

When you see boys on the streets
and public places, we often wonder if
they know business men are watching
them. In every bank, and store and
office there will be place for boy to
fill, Those who have the management
of the affairs OF business will select
one of the boys; they will not select
him for his ability to swear, smoke
cigarettes. or tap beer keg. And
the ''society swell" who is daft about
little social functions and is happy in
the conceit that he is 'sjust the
article" that young ladies find
indispensable on all occasions is given
the "glassy stare" quite as often as
the beer guzzler or cigarette smoker.
Business men have few loose habits
themselves, but they are looking for
boys who are as near gentlemen in
every sense of the word as they can
find, and they can give the character
on everybody in the city. They are
not looking for rowdieS.. When a boy
applies for one Of these places and is
refused they may not tell him the
reason why they do not want him,
but the boy can depend upon it that
he has been rated according to his
behavior. Boys cannot afford to
adopt the habits and conversation OF
the loafers and rowdies if they eveI
want to be called to responsible
positiens.-Riee Lake Leader.

Do NOT DOSE THE STO MACH
Cure Catarrh by Natures Own Method
Every Breath Of Hyomei Brings
Relief

Nearly every one who has catarrh
knows how foolish it is to try and
cure it by drugging the stomach.
Temporary relief may be given, but
a cure seldom comes.
Until recently your physician
would be to have change of climate:
but now with Hyomei you can carry
a health giving climate in your vest
pocket and by breathing it few
minutes four times day soon cure
yourself.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but sl.Oo and consists of an inhaler
that can be carried in the vest pocket
a medicine dropper and a bottle OF
Hyomei. The inhaler lasts life
time, and if one bottle does not cure,
an extera bottle of Hyomei can be
obtained for so cents. 1t is the most
economical of all remedies adver-
tised for the cure of catarrh, and is
the only one that follows nature in
her method of treating diseases of the
respiratory organs.
John e. DAILY has sold great many
Hyomei outfits and the more he sells,
the more convinced he is that they
are perfectly safe in guaranteeing to
refund the money if Hyomei does bot
cure.

Travelling Backward.

One Of the saddest things in the
history of college graduates is that sc
many cease to grow when they have
received their diplomas. On gradu.
alton DAY they reach their mental
high-water mark, but after that the
tide gradually ebbs, and it neve,
rises quite las-hssi-- again-zg
When just from college, many OF
these graduates impress one as men
of great promise; but, somehow OF
other, they remain prospectuses all
their lives; they never become pub
lished volumes. They, study law,
teach while, or else, perhaps, en-
gage in business, but they do not
hold on very long anywhere or at
anything. They seem to lose their
grip: and, instead of forging ahead,
they drift down stream.
Asa rule, a graduate who thus
fails to realize his promise thinks
that, when he receives his Sheepskin,
there is no need for further mental
exertiOn on his part. He feels that
he has won his laurels, and that he
can afford to rest upon them. After
four years study in college, he be-
lieveS that he has covered the whole
field. Having won diploma, he has
no other goal in view. Purpose
less, without a life-plar Or definite
line OF work. he becomes the most
hopeless and pitible of all human
beings,-a drifter.
"HOw can / overcome this feeling?'
hundreds of young men are asking.
Begin to overcome it now! Do not
allow it to grow over you like moss
on deserted building. Try to abandon
the thought that your life is purpose
less

MISSIONARY MEETING
Entertained by Mrs. G. r. Gard
ner and Mrs. G. N. Hill at the
Gardner Home on High Street.

The large number of ladies that
were entertained by Mrs. Gardner and
Mrs. Hill at the home of the former
on Tuesday afternoon report it one
of the most enjoyable gatherings
OF. the season. Mrs. DR.. .Crofford gave
the ladies a very pleasant and instruc-
tive talk on missionary work in Persia.
Mrs. Crofford was born in Persia OF
American parentage and isthoroughly is
familiar not only with the missionary
work of that country but for several
years she was brought in contact with
their every day life. She reports that
Mohammedanism is their prevailing
religion and that Poligamy is largely
practiced among the masses and that
they are not the happy contended
people that many think they are.
Refreshments were served and all
returned home feeling that the
afternoon had been well spent.

THE TROUT FISHERMAN
The Essentials Necessary for
Successful Trout Fishing Are
a Good Story Teller and
Listener.

The sporting instinct is inherent ir
almost all men and from the
time when we were barefooted boys
until age has crept upon US, we enjoy
outing with gun or rod, The Grand
Rapids sportman take special pride
in matching their skill and cunning
with the speckled beauty. There are
two essentials at least for making
trout fishing success, one is d story
teller and the other a good listener.
1t may seem strange but the latter
class predominates this spring, and
there are distinctly two classes OF
them.
One class Of listeners will be much
interested in hunting, fishing or
story of the chase. The more blood,
hair, fur or fish scales you scatter
through the atmosphere the better
they are pleased. You can catch trout
with them with piece of bacon rind
on bent pin or dip them up with
your straw hat and the larger the fish
the more interest they manifest.
There is another class of listeners,
those VINO nave, ssnipped the stream
below the dam, those who have
stood behind the gun when bruin got
the lead, who ate bear meat and had
the skin tanned, those who bled the
deer and lugged it to camp. This
class of fisherman enjoy good story of
hunting, fishing or of the chase, but
they know something of the subject
matter themselves and everything and
all things told in the line mentioned
is not always accepted for they do not
expect story teller or a story writer
tokeep at all times between the bluff
banks of the rivulet of truth and wade
through it's waters at every step. But
they do require that your tote road
shall run parallel with and not to far
from it. They will even allow one to
use mild slang phrases or abbrevia-
tions. But they will insist on some
VI uUu duO piCuOJ Va ACdOO1s ACSC
extraordinary catches and kills, these
heavy weights and long shots are
noted, but not always believed.
The disposition to exaggerate when
speaking of everything pertaining to
sport is quite universal and is
expected. A man whose word would
be taken without question in a busi-
ness transaction can't help but add a
few ounces to the weight Of the last
trout he caught and few pounds to
the first buck he ever killed, running
so fast that he just touched the
ground in the high places.
Some of our fishermen have returned
and report an excellent time. They
got what they went after. Recreation,
rest from business. a new lease of life,
and fair assortment of fish stories.

Laws Concerning citizenship.
Not only are the laws relating to nat
uralization now defective. but those re-
lating to citizenship OF the United States
ought also to be made the subject OF
scientific inquiry with a view to prob
able further legislation. BY what acts
eXpatriation may be assumed to have
been accomplished. how long an Amer
lean citizen may reside abroad and re-
ceive the protection OF our passport
whether any degree OF protection should
be extended to one who has made the
declaration Of Intention to become a citi-
zen Of the United States but has not Sc
cured naturalization, are questions Of
serious import, involving personal rights
and often producing friction between this
government and foreign governments
Yet upon these questions our laws are
