Waves Propsl Shtps.


John Luck OF Brooklyn has devised
plan TO apply wave power to the pro
pulsion Of vessels crossing the ocean.
At his home, 1906 Newkirk avenue.
he has on exhibition a model Of his
invention.
It represents the hull Of vessel
equipped with water tanks fore and

piston rod operated by a series Of
cogwheels. which furnishes motor pow.

weight OF water stored In the tanks
will be sufficient to put the machinery
in motion and move the ship. This
force will be applied by the rise and
fall OF the hull. occasioned by the ac-
ton Of the waves.

BABY'S HAIR ALL CAME OUT

when my FIRST baby was six
months old he broke out on his head
with little bumps They would dry
up and leave q scale. Then it would
break out again and it. spread all over
his head. All the hair came out and
his head was scaly all over. Then his
face broke out all over in red bumps
and 1t kept spreading until 1t was on
his hands and arms. bought several
boxes Of ointment, gave him blood
medicine. and had two doctors to treat
him. but he got worse all the time. He
had 1t about six months when q friend
told me about Cuticura. l sent and
got a bottle Of Cuticura Resolvent, .
cake OF Cuticura Soap and a box of
Cuticura Ointment. In three days
after using them he began to improve.
He began to take long maps and to
stop scratching his head. After taking
two bottles Of Resolvent. two boxes of
Ointment and three cakes of Soap he
was sound and we'll. and never had
any breaking out Of any kind. His
hair came out In little curls all over
his head. don't think anything else
would have cured him except Cuticura.
Il have bought Cuticura Ointment
and Soap several times since to use
for cuts and sores and have never
known them to fall to cure what put
them on. l think Cuticura is a great
remedy and would advise any one to
use It. Cuticura Soap is the best that
I have evcr used for toilet purposes"

CHAPTER VII.
One Way of Saving Her.

~ NCE more the muscular Indian
made a desperate attempt to
throttle the American, but his
intended victim was not to be
caught mapping again. Both men were
away from the bed now. and Sparhawk,
shaking himself free, stepped back.
The Indian made a savage rush. and
for the first time In his life he had to
do with the methods Of q trained boxer.
First one and then the other of Spar
hawks arms shot out. One fist landed
on the Indians stomach and the otner
crashed against his head behind one of
his ears with force that fairly lifted
him of his feet and sent him In a heap
