Wonder What's The Matter.

There seems to be something
wrong with our mail service
again. When papers from Of
we'll addressed to subscribers on
route out of Jasper are not de-
livered until four to seven days
after they are mailed here it
looks a little queer, too. We
have complaints from subscri-
bers to the Star on the above
route that their paper does not
reach them until Monday and it
has been as late as Thursday get
ting to them when the paper is
always mailed here early Friday
morning. We can see no reason
why the Star can not be deliver
ed on both the Jasper routes
every Saturday and we propose
to find out why it is not -Otwell

Concrete PdvGH1Gnts

There is a PROPOSITION before
the Town Board TO order concrete
pavements Is feet wide on both
sides of Main Street from the
public square to lst. Street. This
is much needed improvement
and will improve the appearance
of the street very much. Some
of TIE old "Rathole Sewer" sup
porters are kicsing; but as the
sewer question is dead; very dead
and it is not likely that there will
be any rathole assessments to pay
in the next ten years Let's
have the pavements. The pr
sent trouble with South Ma
street is it has too many cor
fields and potato patches fronting
on it.

ALMOST FRANTIC WITH
ITCHING ECZEMA

Eight years ago l got eczema all
over my hands. My fingers fairly bled
and it itched until it almost drove me
frantic. The eruption began with
itching under the skin. 1t spread fast
from between the fingers around the
nails and all over the whole hands. l
got a pair Of rubber gloves in order to
wash dishes. Then it spread all over
the left side Of my chest. A fine doc
tor treated the trouble two weeks, but
did me no good. I cried night and
day. Then | decided to try Cuticura
Soap and Ointment but without much
hope as | had gone SO long. There
was a marked change the second day,
and so on until | was entirely cured.
The C~uticura Soap we have always
kept in u home, and we decided
after that lesson that it is a cheap
soap In price and the very best in
quality. My husband will use no other
soap in his shaving mug" (Signed)

DOOM LATTICE MAST.
Navy Men Say They Must Be
Abandoned.
Practically indestrgctibIe, but vlbra-
tlon Proves Handicap to Range
Finders and DlmInlshes Ac-
curacy In Gunnery.

Washington.-The skeleton masts
on the United States battleships, dis
tinctly a feature Of American wal
craft, are said to be doomed for the
scrap heap, There is a great deal OF
discussion in naval circles yer the
apparently w~ellfounded report that
the navy department intends to aban-
don the skeleton masts with which
all ~battleships are now equipped be-
they have not come up to ex-
pectations, and from the viewpoint Of
naval experts are a hindrance and q
handicap to efficient craftsmanship.
The vibration of the mast, due to its
slender mechanism, Is said to be the
chief defect. For this reason the
range finder, whose duty 1t is to pick
up the object and communicate the
distance to the gun pointers, is I'M
able to do so with the CELEBRITY and
accuracy that would be demanded in
a naval engagement.
When the skeleton mast was intro
duced on American ~battleships it was
agreed generally a great step had been
taken In advance OF other nations. 1t
a the belief then, and still is, that
the mast Is indestructible, which gave
the ship in time of action a big adj
vantage, for il the mast could not be
shot away the fire control system OF
the vessel at no time would be threat
ened.
The position of the range finder is
at the top of the mast. He is the
pulse Of the ship, and mistakes made

METHOD OF KEEPING YOUNG
Remarkably Sound Advice for the
Woman Who Has Some Years
Of Life to Her Credit.

The way to ward on old age is not
to fear 1t, not to allow ones self to
be oppressed by the dread of advanc-
Ing years. Use only legitimate pre-
ventives and avoid trying experiments
with preparations not Endorsed by
physicians. Do not wear toilettes in
tended for young girls, they only add
years to the appearance. Keep up
your interest in the young, but do not
envy them. Retire with dignity from
the struggle, do not pose as your
daughters rival. Above all, surround
your life with sweet, true affections
which prevent the heart from growing
bitter. Do not lose interest in the
growing events of the day; do not fall
behind the times and do not harp on
other and better days. To those who
come to you for advice be always kind
27d sympathetic. AS you advance in
ye-.rs preserve carefully your personal
appearance, for once lost it may not
be regained, save by strenuous effort.
Your costumes should be simple and
unp~retentious, yet graceful. These
rules. carefully and sensibly followed,
will keep you young and attractive

by him may mean the destruction of
the vessel. Naval experts figured a
12-inch shell would pass through the
skeleton mast without destroying it,
whereas one shot in the old style hol-
low steel mast would bring 1t down
and with 1t the whole fire control sys-
tenn. 1t was calculated several shots
could go through the skeleton masts
and it still would stand. But from all
indications those who advanced the
skeleton mast theory evidently were
carried away by their enthusiasm and
overlooked the drawback in another
direction that would be caused by the
vibration of a battleship steaming at
full speed.
How much depends upon the range
finder can be understood only by men
who make a study Of fighting at long
range, as vas pointed out by an ex-
pert who says the skeleton masts are
a failure. 1t was expected that when
the lattice work masts first made their
appearance other nations would be
quick to adopt them. 1t was a sur
prise to advocates of the new type OF
mast that this was not done. The
skeleton mast is typically an Amert-
can naval idea,l but from all indica-
lions the defects now seen by experts
here we're foreseen by experts in other
navies, and the American mast let
alone.
Those In favor of the skeleton masts
point to the excellent gunnery records
made in target practice since their
adoption as proof OF their success, but
the counter argument is advanced that
If the range finders were placed on
more substantial posts the marksman-
ship Of the navy, increasing in excel
lence as 1t has done year by year,
would be still better and all records
for speed and accuracy would be
smashed. The unpopularity Of the
skeleton masts has been growing
steadily. 1t is said the change is not
far of, and any day may see orders is
sued doing away with what a year or
two ago was thought to be great
stride forward in naval construction.

Germany Shows the Wav.

Germany wearied Of the sugar boun-
ties several years ago. She is now
wearying of the indirect bounties paid
on the export Of grain. The export
certificates will be receivable for only
three months instead Of six, and avail
able for the payment Of duties on i'm
ported grain alone instead Of duties
on some other commodities. 1t is one
OF the ~fallacies of the protective sys-
tenn that it is good business to main
tain high prices at home in order to
be able to sell abroad at cut prices.
The home population is getting tired
Of paying high prices in order that
foreigners may get the goods for low
prices. A good many American voters
need education on this point.

Great Problems slmpIlaed.

The scheme of forbidding men to do

be free to do business his own way,
with everybody who is willing to do
business with him. Free to enter into
all the combination he finds to his in

answering in the courts for his tres
