 From that time on the precocious musical talent manifested itself in various ways, Robert showing ability hearing them once. To-day he is five, having passed that birthday December l, 1907. Since he has been able to sit at the piano he has been picking out such well-known airs as Home. Sweet Home,' "Iankee Doodle, y Marching Through Georgia" and a long list of popular airs.
 Recently he improvised a piece which he has named The Arabian Nights In order to meet the full re- quirements of the composition he de- cided it would be necessary to use the loud and soft pedals, something he had not bothered with previously. To sit on the stool and reach the pedal is a physical impossibility for the young composer, so he stands up for the performance with his face barely on level with the keyboard.

ing of the lead line and the cries of when the sun or stars are shining brightly and only the horizon is ob. scured.
 The great danger, and which has lured many good ship to her destruc- tion, is the counterfeit horizon, which appears so clear and well defined that it will deceive experienced navigators men who have been deceived before by the same false assurance that they were looking upon the real horizon. Secure in the belief that his sights are good" which is the nautical way of saying that. the safety signals are set, the mariner stands boldly on his course only to find that he is several miles out of his reckoning, and has made a bad landfall. The false hori- zon at sea is as cruel a deception by Dame Nature as the mirage on land which presents to the thirsty traveller a limpid stream almost within reach of his hand.
 The spanner horizon is so called be. cause it exactly spans the periphery of the suns image reflected on the horizon glass of a sextant when day observations are taken 1t carries central wire for night work, on which a star, light ashore or afloat or other small object may be brought in line.
 On the darkest nights the attitudes of the stars may be taken with the spanner. In the daytime, when the horizon is obscured and the limbs of the sun are brought between the legs of the instrument, the altitude of the suns center is obtained and the true horizon is established
 Capt. Gadsen invented the instru- ment after his retirement from an ac- tive seafaring life. Its value as an aid to navigation was recognized by English mariners and it was suggest ed that company be formed for the manufacture of the auxiliary to the seXtant but Capt Gadsen, who is mid dle-aged and set" in his ideas. would not consider the proposition. The sat isfaction that he will derive, and all he asks for, is the approval of the nay igators who find his invention to be practical and helpful. He would rather know that hundred ships had laid Q true course ard avoided danger with the aid of his spanner horizon than tG receive hundred thousand guineas.

CAPT. GADSEN PERFEcTS DEVICE
 TO CORRECT FALSE HORIZON.
Relatively as Valuable as Sextant-- All Reward Inventor Seeks Is to Know He Has Made Ocean
 Travel Safer.

Washington.-Ther has been pre-. scented to the bureau of navigation of the United States navy an ingenious device to aid in taking observations to determine a ships position, and which, if adopted, will not yield, and is not expected to yield a dollar of profit to the inventor, Capt. H. A. Cad sen, a retired mariner, now enjoying the comforts of life ashore at No. 6 Binden road, London.
 Capt Gadsen's invention is as im- portant relatively as the seXtant itself. The Japanese navy used it in the war with Russia, and to it's employment the commanders of eight ships as cribed in a large measure their ability 10 surprise the enemy
 Diyested of it's technical nomenc]a- tlWe, the invention, which is called the "spanner horizon" is intended to cor rect a false horizon. which the navi- gator dreads almost as much as he does the uncharted sunken rock, for he may be carried many miles out of his course, and not infrequently to a dangerous ambush, in the painless lane he is following.
 Ever since the time when the hardy Norsemen ventured out of sight of land, guided only by a rude compass, dependence has been placed upon the sea horizon for those observations of the celestial bodies which enabled the navigator to fix his position upon and shape his course across the vast eX- panse of the oceans. When the hori- zon is obscured the observations can not be taken, and reliance-uncom- fortable and uncertain-has to be placed on dead reckoning, the heav-

Nature and woman,s work con- bined have produced the grandest remedy for woman's ills that the world has ever known.
 In the good old-fashioned days of our grandmother they relied upon the roots and herbs of the field to cure disease and mitigate suffering.
 The Indians on our Western Plains to-day can produce roots and herbs for every ailment, and cure diseases that baffle the most skilled physicians who have spent years ill the study of drugs.
 From the roots and herbs of the field Lydia E. Pinkham more than thirty years ago gave to the women of the world a remedy for their pe culiar ills, more potent and etfica- cious than any combination Ofdrugs.
 Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is now recognized as the standard remedy for woman's ills.
 Mrs. Bertha Muff, of 515 NC. St., Louisiana, Mo, writes:
 "Complete restoration to health IuedAS SO IhuC1l GO L1C OlidG sC4 SAAN SsifAS of other suffering women 1 am willing to make my troubles public.
 s'For twelve years l had been suffer- ing with the worst forms of female ills. During that time had eleven different physicians without help. No tongue san tell what I suffered, and at times l could hardly walk. About two years ago wrote Mrs. Pinlzham for advice. I followed it, and can truly say that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Con- pound and Mrs. Pinkham's advice re- stored health and strength. It is worth mountains of gold to suffering women.'
 What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege- table Compound did for Mrs. Mutf, it twill do for other suffering women.
