STABILITY OF SUBMARINES.

In considering the stability of the
submarine boat, both the surface
and the submerged conditions will have
TO be noted. when the submarine was
more or less in its infancy, the ques-
tion of stability presented a very seri-
Gus problem. more perhaps with refer
ence to longitudinal than transverse
stability, but the latter. though easier
of solution. is none the less important,
ard i'm every case it is essential that
the safety OF the vessel be assured in
respect of both the transverse and lon
gitudinal direction. 1t does not follow
that q vessel which can be made to
trim AMI steer correctly when floating
at the surface Of the water would nee

DOING GOOD BUSINESS.
Package Boat Agents Say Traffic is
Improving Continually.


The package freight boats are doing
a good business which the agents say
is improving continually.
The Mutual Transit company now
has nine boats in the service. four of
them making through trips, without
stopping, between Duluth and Buffalo
the other five stopping at Cleveland
Houghton and few other ports. SAYS
the Duluth News Tribune. Under this
arrangement the Mutual has a through
boat to Duluth out of Buffalo every
three days. The line has a ship out of
Buffalo and Duluth nearly every day in
the week.
All Of the package boats are having
a heavy westbound traffic. and the east
bound business Is Increasing. They
are carrying a considerable amount OF
grain, but are accepting none at less
than Y cents. 1t is said that some of
the wild ships are taking some at a
less figure. but only few cargoes are
going at less than that received by the
line boats.
The ore traffic is increasing rapidly
and will make a fine showing at the
end Of May. unless some unforeseen ac-
cident occurs.

canyon that the masonry will measure
only 175 feet along its crest. Here, as

the flow of the water, and 30 miles

Baldheaded Row Early Piety Not Always the
 Cause of Baldnsss

In Paris there lived a great physi- clan of world wide renown who proved to the world that falling hair Is caused by microbes
 Dr. Sagerbund proved that badness is directly due to these permcious and persistent microbes. He proved to every physician on earth that these in visible yet vociferous little devils dug and burrowed into the hair root and finally devoured the hair bulb. This of course destroyed the vitality of the hair which fell out and caused thin ming of the hair and finally baldness.
 Inasmuch as it is accepted fact that badness, falling hair and dan druff are caused by a germ, doesn't Il stand to reason that the only way to prevent such calamities is to kill the germs?
 And doesn't it stand to reason that the only way to kill these germs is to use Parisian Sage, which The Lee X Osgood Co. has so much faith in thai they guarantee it to cure dandruff falling hair and itching scalp in two weeks, or money back?
 Parisian Sage is a delightful hail tonic and is pleasant to use. It is not sticky or greasy, and contains only those ingredients that wifi sure bene- fit.
 It is now sold by druggists all ovel America, and by The Lee & Osgood Co. for 50 cents a large bottle. It is used extensively by women who desire luxuriant hair with a radiant luster The girl with the Auburn hair is or every package.
