Brides as Business Women.

Certain husbands now contend that
brides should be educated in business
methods. They are not satisfied that
their wives are excellent cooks, su-
perb housekecpers and gracious and
tactful at the dinner table. They
think women also should be sufficient
ly acquainted with business to be
companions to them in affairs of vital
Importance. Said one man: II think q
wife should be educated in business.
My wife is a perfectly model woman
in every way except that she cannot
help me in any way in a business mat
ter. She cannot understand business
simply because she never had any in
struction in it. Now, if my wife had
studied a little about architecture she
could have given me important advice
on the question of letting contract
to a builder for the construction of
our home. l certainly think wives
should have a practical knowledge Of
business matters, including finance"

Germany is Pressing Us
Closely in the Matter Of
Armament

The United States closes another
year in second place among the
worlds naval powers. The great
bodybuilding race between Germany
and Great Britain has not yet brought
the former country up to the United
States, in the number of battleships
afloat but in ships projected and in
the total number of war vessels of
all kinds, Germany will crowd the
United States to third place. These
facts are shown in the new navy
yearbook, prepared by Pitman Pulsi-
fer, clerk to the Senate committee on
naval affairs. In armored cruisers,
although the technical division made
by the United States indicates Ger
many to have more than this country,
the actual strength of the United
States exceeds that of its European
rival.
Notwithstanding the continued
hustle of Germany to overcome Great
Britain's plan of a two-power navy, the
United States is nearly. If not quite,
abreast of Germany, weighing all
points which make for efficiency.
says Mr. Pulsifer. rIn completed ton
mage the United States is ahead of
Germany. In battleships completed,
both in number and displacement, the
United States leads Germany. Includ-
ing battleships completed, under con-
struction and provided for, the num-
ber Of each country is identical, while
the United States leads Germany in
total battleship tonnage The COM
pilstions of Mr.. Pulsifer show the
world powers to rank as follows, as to
eampleted ships:

United States is End in Warships

world In armored cruisers, Germany
outnumbers the United States both in
those built and those building, If the
classification of our navy department
is followed; but if the three cruisers,
Charleston, Milwaukee and st. Louis,
are considered as armored cruisers,
and they are so reckoned by foreign
authorities. then the United States
would be ahead in number and dis
placement of this class of vessels"
"DreadnOught'' Type.
In the "Dreadnought" type alone,
under which is placed armored cruis-
ers as well as the newer bsttleships,
the fierce race between England and
Germany is most clearly shown. At
present the floating navies of the
three leading powers contain Dread
nought-type vessels as follows Eng
land, II, ,, with displacement of 20S,-
100 tons; United States four, dis
placement $4,000; Germany four,
displacement 72,000 The year book
shows that when vessels now being
constructed and those for which
funds have been provided, are com
pleted, the Dreadnought strength OF
the three countries will be: Eng
land %. with displacement of $751;
600; tons; Germany, II. displace-
ment 257 900; United States. 10, dis
placement 221, $50 tons
Mr. Pulsifer finds little to commend
in the constantly increasing size of
ships. and the tendency to reach for
greater displacement and tonnage
Brazil's new 32,000-ton battleship is
the largest now building. Il do not
profess to have any technical knowl-
edge of shipbuilding." says Mr.. Pulsi-
fer. but as an interested layman
believe It has not yet been shown that
there is any better ship than the
Michigan and South Carolina, each of
which has a tonnage of 10000 and
carries eight 12-inch guns, which can
all be used in broadside fire. When
one considers that the larger ship
/ presents a much larger continuous
target and is less wieldy than the
smaller ship; that it is unable to en-
ter harbors which can accommodate
the smaller ships, and that there is
greater difficulty in docking these
larger ships. it would seem that we
should slow up some in this unusual
mania for large and still larger
ships"
