Boat L, Beat the Lusitania.

A remarkable craft is described by
Paul Tyner in the Technical World Mag
azine for May. The following extract
from the illustrated article viii interest
boatmen:
That the hydr0ciirye boat has over and
over, in its test runs, obtained double
the speed Of the ordinary circular hull
form Of the same dimensions, draft and
tonnage, without increase OF motive
power. demonstrates the correctness Of
the principle il embodies and proves its
entire feasibility IN actual navigation.
Moving the water in .one direction only.
displscing ii from its surface, down
ward, instead Of blowing through the
wafer and displacing it TO either side Of
the boat, a saving of close to 20 per
cent. in power is secureda full unit
Of efficiency from the flow and pressure
OF water being obtained, ais compared
to about one third of a unit heretofore
utilized by boats and ships under sail or
steam.
Nor is this increase OF speed attained
at the cost Of other desirable factors
Reference has already been made to the
hydrocurve's endurance al the severe
washing and churning Of the larger yes
sells during the recent ST. Louis celebra-
tion. Many earlier and even more severe
tests had established the fact that the
hydrocurye is more stable and seaworthy
under rough weather conditions than is
the ordinary hull. This remarkable sta
bility is due simply to the geometry of
its construction, which gives ii three
times the advantage OF the ordinary
hull III overcoming waye-action. because
OF its greater elrerent surface and be
canse in the hydrocurve hull the great
est area OF width and tlatness IS forward
and above the center Of gravity The
PROV which ordinarily il not IN contact
with the water, is a eonieal wedge, so
that the waves are not given anything
like the purchase to roll the boat in q
rough YEA that is given BY the ordinary
wedge shaped prov, yet obviating bluff
ness Of bow.

HOUSEWIFE SUGGESTIONS.

Keep pair OF mittens made from
heavy white cotton flannel to slip on
when hanging out clothes.
To polish looking glass first rub il
with duster wrung out OF cold water
and dipped Id whiting, and then polish
with a dry cloth.
Turnips boiled IN their jackets like
beets are much better than when
pared. Adding q little sugar to the
water will correct any bitterness.
Heat a lemon thoroughly before
squeezing and you VIII obtain nearly
double the quantity Of juice that YOU
would IL It had not been heated.
As soon as a salt ham or tongue is
cooked remove it from the boiling wa
ter to 4 pan Of cold water for few
seconds. This viii loosen the skin,
which may be easily peeled Off.
Sprinkle mint with graduated sugar
when preparing mint sauce nnd 1t win
chop more easily Try adding a few
mint leaves to the dish OF baked beans.
An epicure also recommends serving
mint sauce with spinach.
The woven wire egg beater, an indis-
pensabIe article In the kitchen, IL hard
to clean because the threads from the
dishcloth are apt TO catch In the wires.
A good way to clean this ntensil Is
with small brush This will save
the trouble Of removing lint from the
meshes before using.
When tiny pieces Of felt are found
in various parts or the piano 1t is evi.
dent that the tiny silver moth IS at

HEAL It'll of ANIMALS BEST
BECAUSE OF GOOD DIGESTION

An interesting interview was re
Gently obtained with Il. 4 Cooper, the
young man whose theory and nnedi
cines have created such a sensation
during the past year
Mr. Cooper, IN speaking Of the re-
markable success OF his medicine, had
this 10 say on the subject: My medi-
cine regulates the stomach. That Is
why II Is successful. The human stom-
ach today has become degenerate, and
is the cause for most III health. In
the horse, the dog, and the wild ami
mails generally, you see no nerve ex-
haustion, no chronic debility. They
are not shut up day after day with
practically no exercise, and they are
not able to stun themselves with food
when their bodies have not had enough
work to justify It. The hunEn race
has been doing this for years, and
look at the result---half the people are
complaining Of poor health, not real
illness-iust a half-sick, tired, droopy
feeling. They don't really know what
is the matter with them.
II know that all the trouble is
caused by weak, overworked stom-
achs ] have proved this with my
medicine 10 many thousands OF peo-
pie In most OF the leading cities Of
this country. expect to do the same
thing in Europe next year This is
the real reason for the demand for
my preparation"

been converted to Cooper's theory is
