BABY COVERED WITH SORES.
Would Scratch and Tear the Flesh
Unless Hands Were Tied-"WouId
u Have Died but for Cuticura,

reSe Dieu pur TOR Cuticura,"
My little son, when about a year
and half old, began to have sores
come out on his face. | had a phy.
stefan treat him, but the sores grew
worse. Then they began to come on
ms arms, then on other parts of his
body, and then one came on his
chest, worse than the others. Then
l called another physician. Still no
grew worse. At the end of about a
year and half of suffering he grew
so bad | had to tie his hands in
cloths at night to keep him from
scratching the sores and tearing the
flesh. He got to be mere skeleton
and was hardly able to walk. NV
Aunt advised me to try Cuticura Soap
and Ointment. | sent to the drug
store and got a cake of Soap and
box of the Ointment, and at the enj
of about two months the sores were
all well. He has never had any
sores of any kind since. He is now
strong and healthy, and can sin.

wonderful remedies my precious
child would have died from those ter.
rible sores. Mrs. Egbert Sheldon.

An Extra Session

1t is rumored that Governor Daw
son contelnplates calling an extra SEES
sion of the legislature to regulate rail
road rates. Thislwill necessitate some
additional expense, but there is no
doubt but what such move Will be
good one. Some of the adjoining
States have already passed such laws
making a two cent fare the maximum
rate. In this the railroads have ex.
cersied little opposition knowing that
public sentiment is thoroughly aroused
on this subject. There is no reason
whatsoever why West Virginia should
notIhave the same rate that Ohio and
other States have. We do not think
that such measures should be enacted
merely because the railroads refused
to issue passes as usual. On the other
hand, the railroads should be COM
niended for adopting this plan. TAX
ing into consideration what they will
save by refusing to issue passes, and
the reduction of their clerical force,
it is very doubtful whether the rail-
road companies will offer any severe
opposition to such bill. The public
demands it and it will surely come.

STRlNCY MILK.
Condition Not Due to Disease, But
Generally to the Feed
Supply.

Now and then a farmer is puzzled
at the appearance of stringiness in the
milk a few hours after 1t Is drawn.
He at once imagines that the COW Is
sick or that some certain cow has
given this milk and begins a hunt for
her. Sometimes the stringiness is due
to case of garget, but in most cases
II is due to less important causes.
There are certain growths of a minute
nature, found sometimes in the pas
lures but often in the hay, that pro
duce this stringiness. explains the
Farmers Review. There Is only one
way OF getting rid of 1t, and that Is
by excessive care when the milk is
drawn. Generally the trouble begins
with the stirring up of the hay be
fore milking, and the filling OF the
air around the COW with vast mum
Der of particles that have in them thu
power of development. In developing
In the milk these attach themselves
one to the other and make the whits
strings so annoying. When the thing
occurs persistently in the stable, i
is probable that these spores exist II
great numbers in the hay. We car
only advise in such cases that thu
hay be not given the cows until aftel
the milk is drawn and taken away.

writer In the Rural New Yorker, we
have truck holding about 20 bushels,
like sketch in first illustration, mount

smaller one at each end. The center
wheels are not as large as we wish they
were, and the truck doesn't run itself.
If you are building one get the center
wheels plenty large enough. The truck
Is wider and longer at the top than at
the bottom. so that wheels do not pro-

A TERRIBLE WEAPON.
TURBINE TORPEDO NEW NAVAL
ENGINE OF DESTRUCTION.
Dealing Monster Adjusted with
Delicate Mechanism by Which 1t
Is Absolutely Controlled -
Goes a Mile a Minute

Washington Imagine a steel fish
l6 feet long and is inches In diameter.
with wheels in It's tail, going at the
speed Of a mile a minute through tie
sea, hurting its load of guncotton
against ship, and you have the new
turbine torpedo just accepted by the
government.
According to accounts il Is the most
terrible weapon of naval warfare yet
invented. 1t is called the Bliss-Leavitt
torpedo and is described as a lean,
long. perfectly Misunderstanding cyl
inder with round ends and four-blad-
ed propellers In its stern. Here also
Is located its wonderful machinery
and mechanical brain, little gyro-
scope that one could hold In his
hand, as delicately adjusted as a
chronometer. II is the soul and heart
OF the death-dealing monster. When
properly adjusted and set 1t absolute
ly controls the ponderous shell of
steel. Compressed air Is used to ex-
pei It from the tube on shipboard.
When expelled into tho water Ii sinks
to the required depth. five or six feet,
then shoots forward straight as an ar
row TO the point of attack, and there
1t fires itself into the heart of the
mightiest battleship and sends it to
the bottom.
"The new weapon" said the Scien-
tific American, conforms in its ex-
ternal appearance and in the leading
features OF it's internal subdivision
and method Of control to the White
head, but in size. power, speed, range
and accuracy it far surpasses il. The

Whitehead of the standard type used
in the United States navy has speed
of Is knots at range of about / 200
yards and about % knots at 1000
yards. The new torpedo has a range.
guaranteed by contract, of $500
yards, and its speed Is rs knots at this
range and SO knots at 1900 yards
range"
So well satisfied is the government
with this omnipotent destroyer that
contracts amounting TO several mil
lions of dollars have been awarded
for the construction of these subma-
rine engines and this type of torpedo
is to supersede all others in the navy.
Two sizes are being manufactured, one
IL inches In diameter, which can. be
fired from the existing 1S-inch tubes
of our warships and torpedo boats.
The other is much larger and more
powerful torpedo, being 81 inches in
diameter. The 18inch torpedo of the
new type has an effective range of
1000 yards and a speed OF 33 knots.
Here is how the mechanism works:
When the torpedo is fired from the
ships tube and enters the water the
revolution of the propellers releases a
sleeve" which uncovers the firing
pin, putting 1t In position to strike
the decorating primer at the instant
the torpedo finds its mark. The cen.
trail body or shell of the torpedo oc-
cupiec little more than one-half its
total length. The mighty weapon is
made Of a special forged steel of an
elastic limit of at least 10000 pounds
air chamber, is called. is TO the tur.
bine engine of the torpedo what the
boiler is to the reciprocating engine
of a European steamship. II is
charged at an initial pressure OF
2,225 pounds to the square inch.
The active portion OF the torpedo
the tail-contains in its forward end
the wonderful little torpedo engine
that drives the propeller. 1t is Of the
Curtis compound type and consists
of a central row of fixed blades and
| two wheels one IL and one-eighth
inches and the other nearly u inches
in diameter. There are two propell-
I ers running in opposite directions.
| 1t is almost inconceivable the com
pressed power or energy which is
generated for the emergency when
this terror of the sea is ready to be
hurled against the enemy. The tur
bine runs at a speed OF 10000 revolu,
tions a minute, but is reduced by
| gears to a speed of 900 revolutions
for the propeller. This develops 100
horsepower, giving a speed of 4C
knots an hour, although the contract
speed required by the government is
only SO knots
To describe just how the wonderful
apparatus for regulating the depth Of
immersion and for steering is effected
would require a scientific detailed de
scription,
BY previous adjustment the torpedo
can be set 10 run at any desired
depth, say five feet below the surface
and keep that depth steadily main
tanned until the enemy has been strucl
and destroyed
Each torpedo costs about $4,000
which IS but a bagatelle in case {
$5,00OOOO battleship is blown int
kindling wood and scrap iron at mo
ment's notice.
