For Baby's Ills

Something can and must be done
for the puny, crying baby, for the
child that refuses to eat and is rest
less in its sleep. And since the basis
OF all health is the proper working
OF the digestive organs, look first to
the condition of the stomach and
bowels.
A child should have two full and free
movements of the bowels a day. This
emptying Of the bowels is very important,
as with II comes a clear head, a light
ness OF step; good appetite and sound
sleep. But II Is equally important to
know what TO give the child in the
emergency of constipation and indiges-
ton. Cathartics are too strong and salts
strong but the child refuses them be-
cause OF their bad taste. Have you ever
tried DR. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin? II Is
liquid tonic that families have been
using using Tor quarter Of century. 1t Is
isctive; 1t is good for you as well as
the child. but there is nothing better TO
be found for children. They like its taste
you VIII not have to force them to
take II.

An Experts Opinion of Skin Dis.

A prominent, national expert on skin
diseases whose name you are familiar
with, says that in all his scientific ex-
perience he has never found so hard a
dis ease TO conquer as eczema. Yet he
does not hesitate to recommend ZEMO
as a most successful remedy for the
treatment of Eczema, itching skin dis
eases, dandruff, pimples, blackheads
and all other diseases Of the skin and
scalp. He says that not only do its Gu
rative qualities make it popular, but al
so the fact that it is clean, liquid
remedy for external use. A great i'm
provement over the old style greasy
salves and lotions which are not only
unpleasant to use but do not destroy the
germ life that causes the disease. Re
MO draws the germs to the surface and
destroys them. leaving the skin clear
and healthy. Can be used freely on in

weight of the powder charge Will be
about $50 pounds. The designed mnz-
.zle energy of the new weapon is 65.600
foot tons.
Example Is Appalling.
To translate this into palmer Eng
lish and to afford some idea of what
this power means, let the reader sup
pose the 10000 tons of the battleship
Connecticut emplaced on top of the
Lusitania. whose displacement is 32.500
tons. and the biggest of the Fall River
steamboats, superlmposed on top of all.
weight of the three and the power that
would be required to lift them. The
muzzle energy of this gun exerted at
the moment of discharge is so tremen-
dous that it would be able to lift all
three vessels oneIfoot.
The mechanism of the carriage must
in the fraction of a second take up and
absorb a shock equal to that of
heavy engine and FIVE Pullman coaches
running at speed Of seventy miles an
hour and brought to a sudden stop-a
stop as sudden as though such train
had smashed into stone wall. On
leaving the muZzle of the gun the shell
has an energy equivalent to that of Il
train or cars weighing $50 tons and
running at sixty miles an hour.
This energy is sufficient to send the
projectile through twenty-five and one
half inches of the hardest of steel ar
NOR at the muzzle. while at range
of 5000 yards the projectile. moving
at the rate of 2,235 feet per second.
can pierce eighteen and one-half inches
of steel armor at normal impact.
Life Is Seventy Rounds.
One of the ordnance experts of the
navy made some calculations which
go to show that If one of these new
submitted to excessive pressure. such
as might obtain in a hot action. the
gun could not last more than seventy
rounds.
The length of the gun is fraction
more than So feet-641 inches, to be
cAdCt. AituOuSu tuc uhuNLiC NSioSity
of the projectile is 2,600 feet second.
the ordnance experts have figured that
! 1t requires one-tenth of second for
the shell to leave the gun. this because
| of the fact that the shell moves from
zero to 1900 feet and that the mean
velocity must be taken. This mean
being one-tenth of second. the actual
gas life of this $4,000 weapon Is
shown to be only seven seconds.
Judging from the performance Of the
twelve inch guns. these greater weap-
ons should be able to deliver three
shots minute. If all ten guns of the
projected Dreadnought should be
brought into action and should main
tain that rapidity Of fire for one hour
the cost of the ammunition expended
in the hour would reach the enormous
sum of $2.520.O00 or about one-fourth
of the vessels entire cost.
