SAILING VESSELS COMING eAcK7

Development of the heavy oil en-
gine bids fair to bring about re-
vival of the big square-rigged ship.
The latest of this type is a truly
magnificent vessel, the France,
launched at Bordeaux. She is 1870
feet long, SIS 2-3 feet beam and draws
"a feet when loaded to a displace-
ment of 1860 tons. Her auxilia-
ries consist of twin oil engines Of
925 horsepower, which drive the ship
at speed of 1012 knots. Her lines
are finer than those Of the ordinary
tramp steamer, and under sail alone
she should be capable in a good
breeze of making 16 knots.

DRUGGIST ROSE TO OCCASION
Confronted With Biblical Prescription,
Man Of Medicine Found Wa
Out Of the Difficulty.

Everything is expected of drug
gists. a negro went into a drug
store in Cincinnati a few days ago
and asked to have a prescription
filled. He produced his prescription,
from the Bible, Exodus 30:23-24;
it called for 500 shekels of myrrh,
$50 shekels Of sweet cinnamon, $50
shekels of sweet calamus, 500 shekels
of cassia and hin of olive oil. The
clerk was puzzled to get shekels and
hins reduced to terms of modern
measurement, but finally succeeded,
and then found that his stock of the
drugs consisted only of alcoholic ex-
tracts, tinctures, etc. This was an
other pulling proposition, but he
decided that the best way was to use
what drugs he had, boil them with
olive oil and filter while hot. This
he did, and filed the prescription to
the satisfaction of his customer. The
Bible says this mixture, compound
ed after the art of the apothecary,"
shall be used as holy amounting oil.

WOMEN IGNORANT OF THRIFTY
Famous Feminist Declares That Her
Sisters Know Little Of the Prin-
cipIes Of Saving.

Women do not know how to spend
money, how to discriminate between
essentials and nonessentials, between
permanent and temporary needs, FL
len Key writes in Harper's Weekly.
Women still sin in these matters
through thoughtlessness, ignorance
and laziness. The physical and spir-
itual well-being of those nearest to
them is the most important point at
which they can love their neighbor.
And these faults are no more nu-
merous among the poor than among
those who have plenty of money to
provide for the health and comfort
of the family, When women began
to enter the field of paid labor they
carried these faults with them.
Women used to hard manual labor
soon learned to do satisfactory work,
because they had to, but women Of
the upper classes, widows and daugh-
tiers of men who had died or lost
their money and were thus forced
to earn their own living, were not
prepared to do so. When they had to
get work their first thought was
chow easy is it," not "what can L
do best" and when they did work
they expected the same privileges as
the home worker. Lack of prompt
ness, undue time taken out for rest,
waste and unreliability were their
faults. Especially was it hard for
them to get.rid of the idea that paid
work could be carried on with the
same carelessness as home work. But
as necessity has forced more women
into the economic field they have be-
gun to lose these bad habits and, with
professional training, their labor eff
cheney has increased.

"Jim, you lazy piece, what YOU
