TULSA Youth AS SEAMAN

unless granted his wishes. That he
is making good is evidenced by the
fact that he has been rapidly ad-
vanced since entering the navy, and
is enjoying both mental and physical
growth under the auspices Of sea life.
In an interview with a reporter for
the World yesterday, the boy gave
many interesting facts in connection
with the life of an American blue
Jacket. He said in part:
" | enlisted at Fort Smith as an ap-
prentice seaman, and took at first a
four months training cruise. At the
end of that time | was made sea
man, and a few weeks later, was
advanced to trst-class seaman. \
little later was a member Of the
signal corps. For the last six months
| have been stationed on the battle
ship Iowa, which is one of a feet of
seven frst-class battleships. The
Iowa has a displacement of IL 800
tons and is one of the biggest battle
ships in the United States navy. After
my training cruise ] was transferred
to the New York navy yard. | have
been all along up and down the At
lantic coast Of America from Pensa
cola, Fla, to Portland, Me. | was
drafted from the New York navy
yard to the Iowa as an ordinary sea-
man. In a few weeks they were kind
enough to give me a promotion to
iirst-class seaman. and further on
they did more by putting me on the
signal corps. At preliminary prac-
tice at Princetown, Mass, | qualified
as a second-class gun-pointer. | like
the life and intend to follow it all
my days. The education received on
board a battleship is of course re-
stricted in measure. The lessons
taught only apply to military tactics
and seamanship, but that is my natur-
al bent, and | had a good school edu-
cation before | entered the navy. /

before my enlistment is ended, but
at that time will re-enlist The life
in the navy | consider a pleasant and
profitable one for all young men who
desire military education. The living |
is plain, substantial food, which |
builds up the brain and the brawn. |

The service and now | weigh 1875 |
pounds The four months training
which novice undergoes is very
rigid, and makes a fellow feel like
away some times, but after
hat is done with, ones troubles are
Dver.
Dicipline on board ship is rigid,
yet sailors are privileged to smoke,
md have great deal of personal
liberty. In fact the life is pretty
much like any other kind-it all de-
,ends on what one makes of it, There
re no moral degenerates in the navy
md the salt sea breeze is an inspir-
Itim to both mind and body"
Young Martindale will go back to
he battleship Iowa on his return. The
owa in company with the balance of
he fleet leaves on December % for
he West Indies where it will remain
the winter. The youthful
ailor says he has learned to climb
ope with all the agility of the animal
which Darwin claims as the ancestry
f the human race, and says if strict
ttention to duty and perseverance
'ill make him so, he intends to be an
ADMIRAL some day.

Catarrhal 

For two years I was in a very bad condition. I was treated by a number of eni- nent physicians for chronic catarrhal gastritis and dilata- tion of the stomach, and ob- tained no relief. I grew grad ually worse, my breathing was so difficult at times that 1 thought I would die. My heart was in very bad condition from poor circulation and pressure of the dilated stomach. I de- cided 1t was only matter of very short time with me. I was advised to try Dr. Miles Nervine and Heart Cure, and before l had finished taking one bottle of the. medicine l felt like a new being.

WOULD KILL HOPELESS CASES.
Eastern Educator Believes That Those
Sick Beyond Human Aid Should BE
Put to Death.

DR.. Charles E. Norton of Cam :
bridge, Mass, favors killing OIL
the hopelessly insane, hopelessly
diseased and the victims OF ac-
cidents. He says;
1.-THE principle that it is a duty
to prolong every human life as
long as possible, at whatever
cost. has hitherto been generally
accepted.
cts main support has been the
doctrine of the sacredness OF
human life.
"Thc doctrine and the practice
have both been pressed too far
There is no ground to hold every
human life as inviolably sacred,
and to be preserved, no matter al
what result to the individual, OF
others.
"On the contrary, there are
cases TO which every reasonable
consideration urges that the enc
should be put. Setting aside all
doubtful cases, no right thinking
man would hesitate to give dose
of laudanum, sufficient to end
suffering and life together, to the
victim of an accident, from the
torturinc effects Of which re-
covery was impossible, however
many hours of misery might be
added to conscious life by stimu-
lants or surgical operations
"Nor should a reasonable man
hesitate to hasten death in the
case of q mortal disease, such,
for example, as cancer, when IL
has reached the stage of incessant
severe pain, and the patient

cor, take another instance,
that of an old person whose mind
has become a chaos of wild
imagiEings, productive of con-
stant distress, not only to the
sufferer, but to all who live with

in such case is not to prolong,
but to shorten, life.
"It is not to be hoped that a
superstition so deeply rooted in

prolonging life at any cost will
