There IS no real conflict Of State and

One day the kaiser was walking

confessed that he was in love with

LUMBAGO.
Diet and Treatment For This Distress
ing Affection.

ing Affection.
This distressingly painful affec-
ton is muscular rheumatism located
in the large muscles of the loin.
The attack usually comes on quite
suddenly, sometimes selling the suf-
ferer in the middle of a walk with
out the slightest premonition. The
pain is intense and is increased by
the slightest motion of the body.
The victim of lumbago or, any
other form Of muscular rheumatism
becomes painfully aware of the fact,
which perhaps he had not before
realized, of the great fexibility OF
the body and of the intimate rela-
ton between the different parts OF
the body, for it seems impossible
for him to make any motion what
ever of the head or of the arms
without feeling a sharp twinge in
the back. He dare not turn in bed,
lift his head or even raise his arms,
for every movement seems to be
originated and performed by the
sore back muscles.
There may be little swelling of
the affected region, but usually
there is no external sign of the
great well of misery lying just be-
meath the skin. The pain lasts a
few days or a week and may then
disappear as rapidly as it came, al
though there is often considerable
soreness or an occasional twinge for
a day or two.
Lumbago may be distinguished
from pain in the back due to other
causes by the fact that the agony is
extreme whenever the slightest
movement is made and is absent or
at least bearable when the patient
lies perfectly quiet in bed, and also
that the muscles are tender when
gently squeezed. The affection is
more common in men than in wom-
en- and attacks adults chiefly, the
muscular rheumatism of children
taking the form usually of wryneck.
Why this should be so it is difficult
to say.
Lumbago occurs more frequently
in equity persons, although that is
no explanation, since we do not
know why the loins should suffer
in equity individuals more than the
muscles of the neck.
In mild cases the drinking of an
abundance of water to which some
baking soda is added may give a
measure Of relief. Gentle rubbing
of the parts with cloth dipped in
ammonia and hot water will often
mitigate the suffering, and after the
rubbing a cloth wet with this

and covered with hot water bottle.
The diet should be light, without
meat or highly seasoned food and
especially without beef tea or meat
broths Of any kind. The bowels
should be kept open. .
One who is subject to lumbago
should be careful to avoid chill
and should live frugally, drinking
only plain water or milk.
Sometimes the attacks are pre-
vented or made less frequent by the
wearing of a broad flannel belt over
the undertaking.

It will be under two heads who

Notes From Washin gton
From Our Regular Correspondent.

FROM OUR h0gul
The Navy Departm ent has
been shocked by the news of
another accident to the battle
ship squadron. This time it is
the first class battleship Geor-
gia at target practice of Boston.
Mass. There was an explosion
Of powder in the tnrret, killing
nine officers and men and injur-
ing twelve others SO that some
of them will die. This accident
was the more serious in the
view of the department because
it was the fourth one in four
summers of target practice and
came after the department had
taken what it considered was
the amplest precautions to eli
inmate all such accidents. The
origin of the explosion is mys-
terry. Only one round had been
fred from the alter turret and
the men were holding one of
the 100 pound bags of smokeless
powder ready to throw into the
breech of the gun The loader
suddenly saw the bag shoulder
ing and before there was time to
think, the charge ignited and the
200 pounds of powder went off.
filing the turret with smoke and
gas. Of all the men in the tur-
ret not one escaped serious in
jury. The turret was not badly
damaged because the powder
was not confined. But the mys-
terry came IN knowing where the
spark originated that filed the
charge. The department has
eliminated all known courses Of
danger, insulating the electrical
equipment and installing auto
matte air blasts to prevent "fare
backs" from the hot guns. There
will, of course, be a board of in
quiry but it is doubtful if the
cause of the fire will ever be
discovered.
Some of the other accidents
on the modern warships were an
explosion on the Massachusetts
in 1908. killing nine men. anoth-
er on the Iowa the next year
when again the twelve inch tur-
ret exploded, killing three men
and iujuring three others, an ex-
plosion from "flare back on
the Missouri. killing five officers
and twenty-six enlisted men,
and another on the Kearsage,
severely injuring three men.
The American navy has been
particularly unlucky in accidents
of this sort. The British navy
in the same time has lost many
more men through a series of
torpedo boat disasters and the
French through fire and sub
marine disasters. Each navy
seems to have It's own speciality
in horrors. Whether the Navy
Department will ever be able to
eliminate the sources Of these
explosions is a serious question.
Meantime, it seems that target
practice in peace time is almost
as dangerous as service in time
of war.

The navy has been working
for some time on the problem of
gasoline engines for the Navy.
Great Britain has been working
for many years on the problem
of using oil for fuel instead of.
coal. They have had some sue
cess, but aside from the facility
of handling the fuel, it has not
proved of much advantage. Some
competitive tests have been
m AIDE on long distance runs be-
tween ships using coal and
others using oil fuel. THE usual
course has been from Gibaalter
to Plymouth. There has been
but little difference in the time
of the runs, yet enough to war
rant changing the equipment OF
any of the big ships to oil burn
ers.
The American Navy has not
been working without burners
but has bee doing some quiet
work with gasoline engines for
torpedo boats and destroyers.
This work has all been done on
the quiet, and perhaps it is hard
ly fair1eve to refer to it. But
some of the engineer officers
have developed a gasoline engine
equal in horsepower to that in
the biggest destroyer and occu-
plying only one half the space
There is enough fuel space to
make the cruising radius of the
gasoline boat once and half as
long as a steam driven boat. Al
together it is a decided advance
in marine engineering, and will
mark great advance in torpedo
boat construction. But the ga
soline engine. already familiar
in motor boat construction. is
not the only thing that the engi-
neer corps has been working on.
There is one officer who has
been for some years working on
the problem of producing gas
direct from the explosion of oil
and air, keeping it under pres
sure in a tank something like
steam for driving either reci-
procatinfi or turbine engine. 1t
is understood that this work is
now a success, and if this is so
it will mean a revolution in oil
engine construction for motor
boats, automobiles, and all sorts
of small machinery.
