rail track facing the wind, and is securely
fastened with cable The engine is put
in motion and the propellers in the rear
whir. You take your seat at the center of
the machine beside the operator. He slips
the cable and you shoot forward.
An assistant who has been holding the
machine in balance on the rail starts for
ward with you. But before you have gone
fifty feet the speed is too great for him
and he lets go. Before reaching the end
of the track the operator moves the front
rudder and the machine lifts from the
rail like kite, supported by the pressure
of tie air underneath it.
The ground under you is at first per-
feet blur. But as you rise the objects be-
come clearer. At height of 100 feet
you feel hardly any motion at all, except
for the wind which strikes your face. If

ably lost it by this time

Uses of DirigibIes
| Cannot Be Estimated.
THE dirigible. such as the Zeppelin
and lie Baudy ships, has its uses. But
they cannot be estimated, it seems TO
me, on a basis Of sixty-mile speed
We have found with the seroplane that
the old calculations as to increased
speed have something like their coun-
terparts in aerial navigation. None or
the dirigibles now makes thirty miles
an hour. They are doing wonders II
they exceed twenty miles And in order
to double that speed they win have TO
multiply in size and power about 500
times. Don't forget that
/ Orville Wright holds to much the same
view. Il used 20 think that America
YVES kinda slow in such matters, he
pun it. Then 1 went abroad and
saw that they had a magnifying glass
on everything, or maybe II was we
that had the glass. Twenty miles an
hour is high speed for dirigibles and we
are not making any aeroplanes as yet
that carry troops"
The likelihood is, if an ignorant out
slider may venture TO say, that the
truth lies somewhere between these two
| opinions. The standing army is not yet
an anacronism. But Il viii be the mo-
ment the Zeppelin and lie Baudy vessels
acquire a tenth of the efficiency now eX-
| pected OF them. The aeroplane may
never carry battalions, but 1t viii in

How 1t Feels to Fly in An Aeropane
AS Described By the Wright Brothers
The sensation of flying described by Wilbur Ore Wright follows

to the left. You make very short turn.
Yet YOU do not feel the sensation of be-
ing thrown from your seat, so often ex-
perienced in automobile and railway
travel
You find yourself facing toward the
point from which you started. The OBJ
jects on the ground now seem to be NOV
ing at much higher speed, though you per
ceive no change in the pressure of the
wind on your face. You know then that
you are travelling with the wind.
When you near the starting place the
operator stops the motor while still high
in the air. The machine coasts down at
an oblique anglo to the ground, and after
sliding fifty or hundred feet comes to a
rest Although the machine often lands
when travelling at a speed of a mile
minute, you feel no shock whatever, and
cannot, in fact, tell the exact moment
when it first touched the ground. The
motor close beside you kept up an almost
deafening roar during the whole fight;
yet in your excitement you did not no
tice it until it stopped.

BATTLE MANEUVERS
PLANNED FOR FLEET
Actual War Conditions Will
Exist During Fighters
Target Practice.

Rear Admiral Seaton Schroeder, COM
handing the American battleship feet,
has completed and filed With the Navy
Department for information" the de-
tailed plans for the battle maneuvers
and target practice of the feet, to be
held on the Southern Drill GrounT'
OF the Chesapeake eapss, for the next
two or three months.
The feet that will operate outside the
capes, with Hampton Roads as a base,
viii be far more formjo2b BILE than that
that circled the globe last year. tt
Will have eighteen instead of sixteen
battleships, all of them just out o.
dry dock, either new or just overhaul
ed, and representing a high state of
flgE ting efficiency. The weaker vessels
have been dropped from the feet for
nation, and in their places are going
the new Dreadnoughts.
Reinforcement.
In addition to the array Of battle
ships, the two cruiser squadrons. the
scouts, Chester. Birmingham an. Salem,
and the New York, North Carolina and
Montana, will probably join the feet
when It arrives of the capes from
Provincetown early next week.
The maneuvers VIII be greater in
scope this year than any yet held. and
they will approximate as far as possible
the conditions Of actual warfare For
the first time since the days OF the civil
war the boom and thunder Of great ar
tillery will be heard of the capes in the
still of night.
There will be no firing in the Roads
proper, because Of the danger to mer-
chant shipping. But outside the capes
the great feet will thunder away. send
ing a hail OF sixteen-inch projectiles
into the targets, which viii represent
a hostile feet. Never before has the
meet held record target practice at
night, or under weather conditions as
they happen to be.
Like Real Battle.
But the maneuvers and practice this
year, by Secretary Meyers stringent
orders, are to represent actual war con
dtions, and the feet commander VIII
make no attempt 10 select weather con-
ditions, as he couldn't wait for CAIN
and quiet sea to go into battle.
Target practice will be held on the
drill ground, twenty miles southeast OF
Cape Henry, from August 7 to Septen-
Der 20. and during this interval, ships
of the merchant marine have been eau
toned to keep away for safety's sake

Chlldren'S Summer Sickness

The following simple treatment
will usually cure Summer Diarrhoea
IN "a hours:
1. Stop feeding dairy milk. (The
germs which cause diarrhoea thrive
on fresh MILK
2. Give, to about one-year-old.
one grain Of calomel cut into three
doses of two hours intervals. (Cal-
omel kills the germs lodged in the
intestines.)
3. Feed for few days on thick
rice water, strained, and just sweet
ened, while hot, with some con-
densed milk. Keep cold until used.
When cured, gradually subsi-
tute fresh milk, pasteurized or
