Hint for the Nurse.

Keep a written list OF brotbs that
have been popular with your patient
and try 80 to arrange them in Sc
queuce that there need not be a no
ticeable repetition. Do not give any
solids II liquids only" have been your
distractions. Hero again is a poin!
where the mother IN you win probably
interfere with your value as the nurse,
for the little-or the older-patient
will try to work upon you sympathies
and catole you into bringing him
solids now and then, because "liuuids
only to splash around inside OF
him and he wants something solid to
mop EN- up with"
But It is just here where your
motherhood should be pushed further

New York, May 11:-The battle
ship Utah, the largest warship in
commission in the world, is in dry
dock 4 at the Brooklyn navy yard,
thus helping that dock to live down
the name of the 'hoodoO dock"
which it acquired because Of the
many accidents during its construc-
ton. The Utah is in the navy hos
pital because a British tramp steam
ship trying to get to sea in a fog
dented a few of her bow plates as
she lay off Tompkinsville, Staten Is
land, on the same day that the Ii
taDic f%Oundered. 1t will cost about
$4,000 to put her in shape again.
The Condor knocked a dent in the
port side of the Utah between her
hawse holes, fifteen feet above the
water line and twenty feet forward
of the armor belt, where her skin
was tender. Two plates five-eighths
of an inch thick We're smashed. The
blow punched a hole also in the port
trimming tank just below the water
line. By the time they pumped the
water from around the Utah the big
ship looked small enough. A mid
shipman standing at the sea end of
the dock remarked that the battle
ship didn't seem to be such a
.whacking big ship after all. AS a
matter of fact dry dock 4 can hold
a ship $50 feet longer than the Utah
and have a little room to spare.

Threw Wooden Shoes at Bride.

In the shower of missiles hurled
after the welded pair something
struck the settlement worker with
singing force. What on earthI' she
exclaimed; then quickly added; "A
wooden shoe! Who ever heard Of
throwing a wooden shoe at a bride7"
Most everybody who has attended
weddings In this part of town has
heard of It," said the officiating curate.
ut is the custom here to throw wood,
en- shoes because at some time In her
life nearly every bride has worn a
pair. For the present generation they
were not her Sunday shoes, nor her
evening dress shoes, nor even her ev.
eryday street shoes, but around the
house and maybe to the nearby shops
in rainy weather she has clattered
around often enough in wooden shoes
to Justify having a pair thrown at her
for old times sal Boston Herald.

my husband works are afraid to bring
Barney up on restaurant food. They
think he will thrive better on good

New York, May 1l.-Mtrabeau L.
Towns on Monday will seek to obtain
the release from the Tombs of Foulke
L. Brandt, whose liberty was termi-
mated by the ruling Of the appellate di-
vision Of the supreme court. This de
cision reversed Judge Gerard's decision
nberating Brandt On a writ of habeas
corpus.
After more than two months liberty
On a writ of habeas corpus, Mortimer
l.. Schiff's discharged valet has been
ordered returned to Clinton prison,
where he was serving a thirty years
sentence imposed by Judge Rosalsky
in the court of general sessions on
Brandt's plea OF guilty to a charge Of
burglary In the first degree.
AS soon as the action Of the appel
late division had been communicated
to Carl Mott, acting district attorney.
he sent Detectives Ravens and Thorn
as to Flushing, II. Y, where Brant has
been living since his release. The
valet was brought In and arTaigned
before Judg. O'Sullivan of the court
Of general sessions, who had issued a
bench warrant for his arrest
His Bail Doubled.
Judge O'Sulliyan increased the $500
bail In the assault charge to 5000
and In default of this Brandt was re-
manded to the Tombs, there to await
bis return to Clinton, The formal order
Of the appellate division will be filed
with the clerk of the Tombs OF Mon
day, after which Brandt will be re
committed. Mr.. Mott said he did not
see how Brandt could be admitted 10
bail while waiting for the considera-
ton of his case by the court Of ap-
peals.
The appeal wss made by Attorney
General Carmody, assisted by District
Attorney whitman of New York coun-
ty, and District Attorney Hogue Of
Clinton county. 1t was supposed at
the time that the appeal was purely
perfunctory and that the attorney gen
eral and Mr.. whitman were In sym
patty with the man lighting for free
dam.

lu-I.Att IN The DRYDOCK1

When the navy gets a $4,000 ton
battleship the dock can take her
safely in. 1t is the biggest navy
dock on either Of the coasts. Yet
1t wouldn't have been nearly big
enough to hold the Titanic If that
ship had been able to limp into port.
Captain F. r. Harris of the navy
the man who built the dock, was
on hand to see that the dock stood
up to the racket. He said he
hadn't feared anything, but he VAS
glad nevertheless that the dock
wasn't a hoodoo any longer. 1t
took about twelve years from the
time the first appropriation was
made for a new big drydock at the
Brooklyn navy yard to be finished,
and they were twelve worrisome
years. All along the water edge at
the navy yard Is tricky quicksand,
and time and again h ~quicksand
boiled, as the engineers say, throw
ing the contractors into frenzy.
Some Of them gave up, and their
places were taken by others. and
these, too had to confess hat the
quicksand had got the better OF
them. But Harris drove 102 pneu-
matte caissons beneath where the
dry dock was to rest and ffty-two
more at the sides. The forward ones
went to hardpan, and the others
sank ninety-fve feet through the
quicksand to solid bottom.

New York Metropolitan Museum OF

man who looked as if he might be
a mechanic approached and, posting
himself at the young mans elbow,
watched him as he labored over his
subject.
you've got the angle Of the mouth
wrong, and the left eye Is too oblique,'
remarked the man decidedly.
The student bllnked angrily and the
hand that wilded the brush trembled
slightly, but he took no notice Of the
unsolicited criticism.
There ia too much yellow in your
flesh tint" continued the man.
Still nc reply from the student,
who o~stehtatiously slapped on more
yellow in the high light on the nose.
Did you hear what l said?" ques-
toned the man.
yes, I heard" responded the stu
dent ~wrathfully, turning and glazing
at his modest looking critic. What do
you know about 1t, anyway"
II ought to know something about
It," was the smiling response, 1T was
