Remarkable Submarine Boat.

II is now believed that John p. Hol-
land, the inventor OF n successful
type OF submarine boats. has improved
upon his invention to such an extent
that the submarines thus far built BY
the nations will have to be consigned
to the scrap heap and be replaced by
the new boat which has stood u num-
Der of remarkable tests. The new boat
attains an average speed of twenty
knots when submerged and can in case
of necessity make thirty knots an
hour. thus exceeding the speed OF the
fastest cruiser. The old boats did well
to attain n speed of nine knots an hour
and will from now on be regarded more
as n curiosity than of any value in ac-
tual warfare.

mother is actually worshiped as a liv-

dren are taught to obey their parents
implicitly and to serve them like

To support the parents in their old

QUEST OF NORTH POLE.
Plan for international Direction Of
Polar Exploration.

1t is practically certain that within
plorer will reach the North Pole.
In 1899 Captain Cagni of the Italian
expedition was within 236 miles of the
most northern extremity OF the earth
and it is quite probable that some
member of an expedition now in the
arctic regions will make new record
even il the pole itself is not reached
An interesting development "a the
plan of exploration has just oeen set
forth by the International Congress of
Economic Expansion In its convention
at Mons, Belgium, which adopted mo-
tion approving plan for international
direction of polar exploration and ask
ing Belgium to take the initiative in
inviting the cooperation of other ma
tions.
The discovery OF the North Pole is
now n matter of systematic and per-
slstent effort, rather than OF bold cour-
age or good luck. Or, to say the same
