may be had by applying Chamber

Stiff neck is caused by rhe INA

is usually confined to the back of
the neck and one side. While it is
often quite painful, quick relief may
be had by applying Chamberlain
Liniment. Not one case of rheuma-

no swelling as in muscular and chron-

It is curious that the first recorded
instance of the utilization of steam
should be by way of a turbine. Hiero's
engine was a turbine, as it depended on
the issuing of jets of steam from the
ends of rotating arms-the steam i'm
pinging against the atmosphere, and
thus causing these arms to move away
from the sides having the jets.
Steam turbines have been built which
produced speeds as high as 10000 reVo-
lutions a minute, such speeds being
too excessive for practical use, because
the gearing necessary to bring them
down to working speeds would make
the intermediate mechanism heavier
than the motor itself.
The use of turbines in ships is not ad-
vocated on the ground of economy, as
the tests made do not show an appre-
ciable saving; but because this type of
engine eliminates vibration. A recip-
rocating or marine type of engine
makes about 80 revolutions a minute
in ships, and the propellers in many
vessels are "a feet in diameter. If such
engines were run at high speeds the
enormous oscillatory force would be
sufficient to pound the bottom out of
ship.
The turbine engine, running as 1t does
at high speeds, has no such effect on
the hull, and the speed permits the use
of much smaller propeller wheels-the
wheels in some of the new ships being
considerably less than one-half the
diameters of those on ships using the
slow speed engines.

THE TURBINE ENGINE
BY j. 8, ZERBE

NHE adoption of what is called the
turbine engine for the motive
Il power of great ships has excited
an interest in this kind of motor. Inc
public has only a visionary idea OF
what the turbine is like, and wherein II
differs from the ordinary steam engine,
since the name associates it with the
water turbine, which is more or less
familiar to all. The steam turbine,
however, Is not the same as the water
turbine, and it depends for its action
on a different principle.
The ordinary steam engine depends
for it's power on the pressure OF steam.
If the steam inlet pipe has an area OF
one inch, and the area of the piston 100
inches, then the driving power is one
hundred times the pressure of the
steam in the inch pipe. A steam tur-
bine does not depend on pressure, but
on the velocity of the steam which is
sues from the pipe. True, pressure is
necessary to produce the velocity, but
pressure alone without velocity would
not avail.
The anomaly is, that the water tur-
bine depends on the pressure OF the
water to drive the wheel, just the same
as in the ordinary reciprocating engine
with steam, hence 1t will be seen that
the steam and the water turbines are
not the same and have only certain
natural forms to give them similarity,
and 1t is from the form or shape of the
wheels that the term turbine Is en-
ployed.

Double Train To
WallOwa County
La Grande Star Gives Rumors OF I'M
proved Service On This
Branch.

"One of the most encouraging ru-
mors afloat in railroad circles recent
ly is that there is to be a double
train service started soon to Wal.
Iowa county" says Tuesdays La
Grande Star. According to the new
schedule, If 1t materializes, one train
is to leave in the morning and re
turn that evening, while the other
leaves in the afternoon and returns
in the morning.
at is reported that the new sched-
ule will provide for Sunday train,
thus accommoda ing the large num-
Der OF people who desire to take
Sunday excursions into the Wallowa,
one of the most beautiful valleys to
be found in the United States. Many
are eager to have the pleasant trip
up the Minam, and up the Wallowa
river, but on the present schedule
two days are required for the trip.
The increase in traffic from the
prosperous Wal owa makes this ex-
ira train service very desirable now.
The outcoming of people is very
large, and is rapidly growing larger,
and the business relations that they
have with Union county are extern
sive. Thus from every point all quar-
ters the report of the new service
is hailed with delight

chinese Leaend Of the eIoins...

In China, according to a native
legend, long before the Caucasians
were born there we're seven sisters
who lived on the banks of the yell
low river. In order that they might
attain the greatest glory in the
world to come they vowed that they
would never marry. But the par
ents, having very different ideas,
betrothed the eldest to a highly de-
sirable young man of their ac-
quamtsnce. Obedience is one of
tne greatest virtues of the Chinese.
50 the girl was compelled to give
her consent. She told her sisters
that they would never see her again
and promptly jumped into the Vel
low river. After a short consulta-
ton they concluded to follow her.
That night for the first time seven
bright new stars were seen in the
sky, and that is why only the China
men really know how the Pleiades
first came to be added to the num-
Der Of stars.

of it.

CAT MOTHERS SQUIRRELS.

Last spring cat on the farm of
Albert Fisher, near Waterville, N. Y,
had several small kittens. AS the
farm was overstocked with cats her
young were taken from her and
drowned. After that the cat seemed
very unhappy, and being a house
favorite she received considerable
sympathy.
One day shortly after her kittens
were taken from her a young squirrel,
which had fallen from its nest in the
hollow of tree, was found and
taken to the cat with the idea that it
would be dainty morsel to tempt
her appetite.
Instead of bouncing upon it cat
fashion she took the young squirrel
to the box where she had so recently
mothered her own young and there
bestowed upon the squirrel all the
affection she had previously given to
her kittens.
Stranger still, says a writer in
Country Life in America, in about
two hours the old cat had hunted
out the squirrels nest in tree some
distance away and had carried the
remainder of the young squirrels in
her mouth, one at a time, to her box
in the house.
Then until the squirrels were near
ly full grown the cat watched over
them with all the solictude that is
possible for any animal mother to
show, even providing nourishment
for them in exactly the same manner
that she had for her own young.
When the squirrels had outgrown
mothers attention they were very
tame and were given to friends of
the family.
