Dust.

Dust is used for various pur-
poses. At one time it was en-
ployed to manufacture human
beings. 1t has now gone into
the making of useful articles.
Dust is used to throw into
peoples eyes. In summer time
1t is a permanent feature of most
of our landscapes. Servants en-
ploy it for the purpose of keep
ing themselves busy. They re-
move it from places where it can
be seen to those which cannot be
seen-except when you don't
want it to be seen.
Without dust we should have
no vegetables, vacuum cleaners
or mud pies. Mixed with rain
water and phosphates, it pro-
duces crops. Crops enable us to
linger on awhile until we become
dust ourselves.
Dust is produced by a differ
ence of opinion between two
molecules. They rub each other
the wrong way. They do this to
raise the dust. After all, that q
about what all of US are trying to
do.

Tale of the jolly Mariner.
He was a iollv mariner

He was jolly mariner
That sailed the seven seas;
By skill and pluck and sheer
good luck
He had escaped disease.
And death in strife by gun and
knife
And other things like these.
Alas! This gallant sailorman
Was knocked down by car!
"You'll soon be Dead" the doc
tor said,
"Perhaps there's one afar
To whom you'd send some word,
my friend"
Up spake the gallant tar:
"You take this message, mate"
he said,
ERE my moorin's slips,
And find my bride and say died
With her name on my lips!
Her name, you say? Well, one
is May;
But I've sailed several trips!
"There's Sally Brown, of Dover
Town,
And Milly, Jane and Nell;
If you will look in that book
You'll find out where they
dwell.
There is score, or maybe more
You won't? Then I'll get we'll I"
He was a jolly mariner
That rose up, strong and fit.
And then, said he, swell, hully
gee!
Pm bruised a little bit;
But I've my life and nary wife
Is left a widow yit!"

Big BattIeShipS.

A very important factor In the
question of the size of ships is
that of economy. A given
amount of tonnage is more Geo.
nomically assigned to one ship
than distributed among several.
Three ships require three cap
tains, three officers constantly on
deck in charge, three men at the
wheel and three times as many
lookouts. While the same pro-
portion-threefold-of deck and
engineer force may not be
needed, the aggregate crews of
three vessels would nevertheless
show very considerable percent
age in excess of one of the same
aggregate tonnage. All this
means much more expense for
the same carriage of freight and
passengers.
The same order of considera-
tions applies to ships of war, but
in less degree, because naval
vessels are not for purposes of
gain. With them the running
expenses in this particular count
as with merchantmen, but the
question of profit is replaced by
that of military efficiency, as
ministering to the safety of the
nation or to the assertion of
national policies.
Suppose one ship carrying
twelve guns opposed to four car
rying three each. With the very
wide train of modern guns-that
is, the long arc of a circle over
which their projectiles can strike
effectively-it is easily feasible
to bring all the guns of four ships
upon a single opponent. Prob
ably she on her part may bring
also upon each enemy three guns,
a fire power equal to his, but the
concentration of four fold i'm pact
upon a single vessel produces
upon her crew a corresponding
physical as we'll as moral i'm
preston, diminishing their mill
tary efficiency, their power OF
rapid loading and aiming, not to
speak of the proportionately
greater chances of material in
jury. If there be the same num-
of hits on both sides the one will
have been sGruck four times as
any one opponent. If, as would
be very proper, the one begins
by concentrating all her battery
on one or two of her antagonists
she ought to beat them down, but
an appreclable time would be re-
CURED, during which the others
would be engaged in unmoIested
target practice upon her,

The Democratic Ticket

The Democratic ticket nominated by
the people at Saturdays primary is a
strong one and a sure winner. 1t would
have been hard TO have nominated a
stronger one. Had the Climax had its
choice there might have been a change
or two, but it had only voice in the
important matter and instead of kick
ing on the personnel of the ticket, it
feels to congratulate the parry on its
excellent work. The primary is the on
ly satisfactory method of naming can
didates, for then every voter, however
humble, has a voice in selecting those
who shall be the standard bearers, and
having taken part in selecting the can
dIdates, he feels an interest in them and
wants to see them elected and is willing
TO work to that end We congratulate
the gentlemen who have won places on
the strong ticket, for in defeating the
high-class men they did, they have
proven not only their popularity as citl-
Zens, but the estimate put upon them
by the Democrats of Madison county on
their fitness for the offices they will
fill. We also felicitate the candidates,
the vanquished and the victors, on their
splendid department through the hot
test campaign Madison has had in years.
