training facilities limited the navy has turned
out some of the best men in the boxing world
today.
For example, there are Sailor Burke and Tom
Sharkey, both graduates Of the navy przehght-
ers, and Sammy Robideau, lightweight champion
of the navy, who is considered one OF the best
lightweights in the country either in or out Of
the navy.
"The constant change in the personnel of the
men," says Paymaster Bovine, mot only means
constant work on the part Of the officers to mold
them into shape, but 1t also means that Uncle
Sam is just so much richer by every man who
leaves the navy after serving his apprenticeship
He has just so many more to call on in case of
necessity, for a man never forgets the OF
the war game once he learns It, So for this
reason, as well as because It contributes to the
health and pleasure Of the men, nothing they can
get in the way of training is thrown away on
them
And too the sailors life is a pleasant one.
There is lots of hard work, to be sure, but there
is plenty to eat clean place to sleep and good
share of recreation In the matter of athletics,
as we'll as in other ways, the government does
more for its sailors than any other country.
Where will you find 1t matter for active educa-
tion and concern it is with US? Certainly not in
the British navy.
"The superiority of the American sailors in
athletics has been demonstrated often, Our men
are satisfied with nothing but the best, They
want to be expert in whatever they undertake;
therefore they train Systematically and are fur
nished with every facility in the way of equip
ment they need This is provided for from the
canteen profits. It is arranged that the profits of
the ships stores can be disposed OF for this pur-
pose, so the men lack nothing in the way Of

The indictment brought against the

experts the cat is neither harmless
nor necessary, but a nuisance ana

It destroys the songbirds, and lets the
rats and mice alone. 1t is q carrier
OF disease, since even when 1t has a
comfortable home 1t will go abroad
to mingle with the pariahs Of its kind.
It cares nothing for its owner and
is ungrateful for the attention II
receives. All this is. in a sense, q
twice told tale, familiar in the mouths
of the cats enemies. But when the
government tells 1t the attention Of
the most skeptical must be arrested
There is nothing the various depart
ments and bureaus at Washington DC
not know. Yet the cat will retair
some friends in spite of this scath

Of course, that the cat is the great

It was a practice among the an
clients to prescribe eating the livers OF
animals for patients whose hvers we're

disposed to regard the practice as
fantastic, but at the medical congress
which came to a close recently In

amounts to a passion with him and at the big
athletic events a considerable sum of money Is
ant to change hands. But Jack doesn't conhne
himself to big events, for as one sailor says, he
bets at the drop of hat.
He carries his propensity for wagering to the
possible destination of the ship whether he
will have salt or fresh water in which to wash
his hammock and a thousand and one things be-
side. You see one Of Jacks duties is to give his
hammock thorough scrubbing once fortnight,
and sometimes when the vaporizers that turn salt
water into fresh fail to work he has to use salt
water for the purpose.
Every minute of Jacks day has correspond

One OF the newest amusements
provided for the sailors Is the
moving picture show, and thik
they enjoy hugely. The films aie

the navy recently bought a set
which Mr.. Edison took depicting
the life of the sailor. This Is very
popular. How often exhibitions arc
given depends on the weather and
where the ship happens to be. II
In port where the men can get
ashore, there Is little need of spe'

this feature Capt. H, B. Wilson OF

pictures soon.
Another innovation which Cap
tain Wilson is also responsible for,
according to Paymaster Bovine, ID
the setting aside of one Of the gun
compartments on the ship as a
reading and writing room for the
sailors. Though small, 1t is a
great boon to them, for now they
can write comfortably at desk In
stead of on their ditty boxes. More
over, there are provided between
thirty and forty magazines with
two or three copies each of the
daily papers, so the sailors, when
at leisure, can pass the time read

TEA TABLE EQUIPAGE
MANY AND VARIED ARE THE
PRETTY THINGS OFFERED.
Modern Hostess Should Have No
Trouble In Securing Perfect APP
polntments - Designers Ger
tainIy Have Done Their Best

To almost every woman the tea
table is matter of especial pride,
and to have her tea table equipped
with the most charming furnishings
or with novel and amusing ones Is
one of the great ambitions of her do
mestic life. There are 30 many at
tractiye articles for the tea table that
1t is indeed difficult to choose among
them, and there are 50 many attractive
styles of furnishing it that almost all
women have pangs OF regret when
they select one style only to find after
several articles have been purchased
that there are so many pretty things
to be bought In quite different style
that will not at all accord with what
they have already purchased
For the Colonial tea table there Is 3
wonderful old Revere silver. Of course
only the woman of great wealth can
hope to obtain original pieces Of this
silver, but copies of 1t are made by
modern silversmiths. The silver made
by hand, with its wonderful color that
no machine made pieces can attain, is
the desire of all women who really are
connoisseurs in the equipment Of a
tea table.
Then there Is the Colonial china in
Its many quaint designs and adorable
shapes, all Of 1t expensive, but so
delightful that 1t Is we'll worth the In
vestment. And the glass for such a
tea table. should be the fine old cut
glass, just little cut. not heavy and
glaring like the modern pieces.
If one wants to have tea table in
the English style there Is some new
china in the old Chelsea pattern,
white with black bands, on which
there are rose garland decorations.
This china harmonizes with the paint
ed furGiture and the black ground
chinsz@a and brccades that are now
so fashionable With 1t the Sheffield
plate pieces are in perfect accord

quaint little pieces so full of color, 30

YOU CAN MAKE WASHING EASY
There VIII Be No After Aches II the
Tubs Are Only Placed
High Enough.

The washday is often spoken OF az
blue Monday" because it is usually a
day OF hard work, followed by days
Of recovery from such aches as wom-
an thinks her due. Now, 1t has been
definitely proved, says ]. Howard
Frick, instructor Of Medical correction
gymnastics In the Samaritan hospital
Of Germantown, according to the New
York Tribune, that washing clothes
has nothing to do with making wom-
an feel gloomy, but that the way she
does 1t has all to do with her after
health.
The most common complaint OF
women after g. days washing Is the
terrible backache which almost COM
pels them to go to bed. This Is some
times followed by headache in the
middle of the head and behind the
eyes, which often last for days Now,
what is the cause Of these after ef-
fects? Certainly ordinary work should
not entail such after sufferings. The
whole cause is the position OF the
woman while working over the tubs.
The majority of wash benches are too
low and the woman must stoop over
while at work. This causes the mus
cles Of the abdomen to relax, which al
lows the stomach, liver, kidneys, and,
In fact, all the organs, to fall forward
out of their normal positions, caus-
ing the terrible after effects of such
work
The proper position before tub is
a perfectly erect position. Here 1t Is
impossible for the abdominal organs
to fall out OF position, as the abdom-
inal wall is tense, as 1t should be when
in the erect position
Another point Of value In the erect
position is the fact that the wringing 6
of the clothes is much easier, since
the whole force Of the arm can be
used without having to exert an effort
to keep the erect position.
The lifting of the tubs is an entire
ly unnecessary labor. When they are
not of the stationary kind they can
be emptied by means of a siphon.

No overcoat is better adapted to cold
weather wear than this one that buttons
up closely about the throat. 1t can be
made with the belt, as in this instance, or
with the belt across the back only or
without either, and, in whichever way 1t
is treated it is exceedingly smart and
essentially masculine in effect. Diagonal
cheviot is the material shown and it is
one of the standbyes for boys wear. But
chinchilla cloth is fashionable this season,
beaver cloth always is sturdy and ser
viceable and for greater dress can be used
velveteen and corduroy. Either OF these
last with belt of patent leather would
be exceedingly smart. The coat is very
simple one with only shoulder and under
arm seams. The sleeves are the regulation
sort with upper and under portions and
are finished with big cuffs. The patch
pockets can be used or omitted as liked.
For the year size, the coat will require
;34 yards of material 27, 24 yards a or
