trees and plants in bloom at the time.
The exhibits will all be correctly

interesting bloom of sterculia divers-

Now she is exposed to the action of
hot water and steam and then to cold
water and draughts of air.
One moment her duty requires
muscular strength and the next tactile
skill and deftness.
1t goes without saying that such a
woman ought to be perfectly healthy.
Her vision should be clear, her hear
ing keen, her taste normal, her sense
of smell accurate, her sense of touch
perfect. her digestion good, her circula-
ton vigorous.
To keep the body in as perfect order
as the housewives must be, something
should be constantly at hand to ward
off the many little ailments incident to
changes of temperature and other
eXigencies.
Peruna is the remedy that exactly
meets this want. The housewife keeps
it near by.

CORRECTS ERROR
OF THE COMPASS
NEW DEVICE MAY PROVE AID
10 NAVlGAToRS
NEEDLE SOMETIMES AT FAULT
George 1. HerrIek Of Wheaton, IT,,
Patents Appliance Which, He
Says, viii Be Boon to
Seamen

Despite the popular fallacy that the
needle of the compass is steadfastly
faithful to the star of the north It is in
reality as fckle woman as the veriest
coquet in history, turning with alac-
rity to every new attraction and for
getting the old as quickly.
Since the magnetic compass was first
discovered mariners have been looking
for some means to overcome the fickle-
ness of the instrument. Many have
been tried, but heretofore navigators
have been forced to figure out the vari-
alton of their compasses each day by
means of observing the heavenly bodies
with various Instruments, and thus cor
rect their courses.
The actual course taken by a vessel is
not shown by the compass for the rea
son that not only does the needle point
TO other portions of the horizon than
the direct north, but seven other causes
for variation enter into the question as
important factors. These are variation.
list, deviation, leeway, current, steerage
and in steam vessels the set of the
screw.
To Magnetic Pole
Instead of pointing at the north star
under normal conditions the needle of
the compass points to the magnetic pole
which is located on the southwest coast
of Boothia, peninsula in the northern
part of Canada in latitude 10 north and
81 west The variation charts pub
llshed by the hydrografic office of the
United States navy shows the amount
and direction of this error at all points
on the earth. So far there has been no
device discovered for the correction Of
this error of the compass.
George I. Herrick, civil engineer of
Wheaton, ILL.,, has perfected a plan to
mechanically correct all of the above
mentioned causes of errors in compass
courses. BY series of graduated rings
which surround the compass card these
errors are mechanically KILLED" by
turning a small key and thus moving
the lubbers point of the compass
through the angle of error and in the
direction required to remove any error
from further consideration. Thus the
course made good would be actually
determined Therefore it would only be
necessary to ascertain the position of
the. ship in regard to her course at any
time or under any conditions to simply
note where the lubber's point touches
the compass card.
