The Waterless Ocean
ny HoMARD FAX.
VOL. L, NO 2O7.

To begin with, this story is purely
Imaginative. of the future and per-
haps could not happen. but so many
wonders has the world seen and ac-
complished that perhaps nothing will
remain impossible except the really
impossible, such as is related in one
IMAGINATIVE story, in which the revo-
luton of the earth Is interfered with.
But to continue:
Lyss Banra, a retired officer of the
navy and a brother had returned from
a vacation in the waters Of South
Cuba with a remarkable story. With
the aid of very powerful glasses
through which one could see the sea
bottom, a new invention, they claimed
they had seen a waterless cave in
which men were working at packing
goods of some kind. Divers suits
lay beside them-four, one suit for
each man. A submarine boat was
anchored close to the entrance.
| The men had transported the
wrapped goods, which was put in iron
chests large enough to hold man,
| to the submarine.
The brothers told the story to
| the populace thereabout, but were
laughed at after several men had
looked through the glasses and had
seen nothing. Many tapped theil
heads as the Banra brothers passed
down the streets.
The one brother Lieutenant Gu,
Banra, a recent graduate of Annap
oils, now commander OF a govern
ment submarine, resolved to watcl
again. The next day he watched ant
saw nothing, and for three weeks h,
kept at it with tireless vigilance, bu
In vain. One morning he watched
again, expecting his failure to be re

Bad Breath and Undesirables

Dear Margery Doom:
Will you kindly tell me If there
is a good remedy for bad breath?
Also, l am going to change my pres
ent boarding place because there
are so many bed-bugs here. What
/ would like to know is whether
there is way to prevent carrying
them to the new place in my
clothes, as I don't want to have
the same trouble all over again.
MARTHA w.
A bad breath is usually caused
either by decayed teeth or stomach
trouble. If your teeth are in good
condition / would advise you to
consult a physician about the con-
dition of your stomach.
Before leaving your boarding
place hang all of your clothes on
fhe line In the sun for two or three
DAYS. Go over them carefully, and
If YOU see bugs, or traces of them,
spray the places with gasoline;
THERE is no reason why you should
carry the pests il you use a little
care.

CONTINUED from Yesterday

When Dorothy and Davie saw
mother Dear on the porch they stop
ped suddenly.
Dorothy tried to hide the puppy
under her right arm. but he refused
tn stay there and wiggled his little
head out as fast as she would POKE
it in. D,,,,,,o,.,
Maybe mother won't like you, ana
then we'll have to take you BACK :
scolded Dorothy. a..
"Yap, yap." replied Nipper, llck-
ing her neck with his little PINK
tongue. and causing Dorothy to cry,
Il can't give you up>now' never

"What'n mother say, do you
s'nose?n asked Davie, she's looking
at us right now"
Dorothy looked dismal
~ don't Know" she declared,
stroking Nipper's smooth head; we
might as well go and find out. Ana
slowly she started toward the mousse
with Davie following

Davie looked at Dorothy, and after

ours" muttered Davie.
"Yoursl Why. how does 1t come
to be yours?'' Mother Dear began
to look bewildered.
WELL" said Dorothy, holding the
puppy very close, you see, the boy
down the street is poor, and they
have ever SO many puppies, five,
really. and his mother said they
couldn't keep 'em all cause there
he too many to feed and
"They'd eat tem out of house ana
home" Davie cut in, remembering
Johnnie's words.

what Johnnie's mother said, her
very words. So Johnnie said If we
liked him we could have Nipper-
that's his name Johnnie named
him-for twenty-five cents, so we
gave him the twenty-five cents

and discoveries of great moment
will be recorded, they declare.
This is a day that should bring
success to those who make public
announcements of big plans. Politi-
cal declarations are under a kindly
sway.
There is a prophecy that leader
of a pollcital party will expose a
national scandal within sixty days.
The rule is an suspicious one for
seeking new positions or making re-
quests for promotion in any line of
employment.
The month of August is declared
by astrologers to be an exceedingly
evil time for the King of Spain.
Toward the end of the month
trouble in Bengal is foreshadowed.
The viceroy Of India is warned of
personal danger.
The elevation Of Mars above the
sun and other celestial bodies at the
time of the new moon in Constanti-
nople is interpreted as menace to
the life or the power of the Sultan
of Turkey.

Saving the Kitchen Table

The housewife who does her own
cooking will find 1t the greatest saver
of labor to keep bit of board on the
end of her kitchen table. on which to
cut vegetables. slice bread. set hot
saucepans or anything Of the sort, in
stead of directly on the nice white
oilcloth, with which the neat woman
covers her kitchen table.
Oilcloth is commended because 1t is
so easily kept clean, always looks nice
and makes a kitchen appear like what
IL should be, the most enticing room
in the whole house.

Good influences dominate today,
according to the reading of astrol-

are in beneficient aspect.
There is a fortunate sign for rail-
ways and all connected with them.
Journeys are likely to De ATTENDED

look for business relating to freight
is said to be most encouraging.
Inventors are subject to a helpful
rule during this aspect, which Is be-
lieved to increase originality and
resourcefulness.
AS Uranus Is supposed to produce
fondness for the society Of persons
of opposite sex, the government to-
day is read as especially favorable
for romance and love affairs. Sum-
mer resorts and weekend parties
