LlFEBoA1 MADE OF PAPER
Japanese Has Constructed Vessel
That Is an Improvement Over
All Others.

A paper lifeboat that can be packed
away in a space of about one cubic
foot, but which, when inflated, is sea.
worthy and durable, is the invention
of a retired admiral of the Japanese
navy. The boat is constructed from
Japanese paper called "hashikirazu,'
which is treated chemically to make
it waterproof. The paper comes from
the mulberry tree It is unusually dur
able, and possesses great strength
when the stresses are in the direction
Of the fiber.-
A thin sheet of paper that is strong
when stressed in any direction is
made by FASTING together two sheets
with the 1bers crossing at right
angles. This is the way in which the
paper boats are constructed. The
first boat manufactured by the admir-
al consisted merely of a large pillow
with a depression in the center, the
whole being inflated with air. Be.
cause of the ease with which paper
can be punctured, it was necessary to
change the method of. construction, SO
several pipe-like bags were made and
placed side by side in the form of a
raft, which finally was modified to the
form Of a boat.
The result Is q l%ife-saving craft
practically immune to wreck, for ever
if one or two Of the pipes are pune
tured or broken, the boat still has
sufficient buoyancy to be seaworthy.
Owing to it's strength and lightness,
and its waterproof qualities. his pa
per is evidently adapted to a wide
range of uses, among which r the
making of coverings for aeroplane
wings and for dirigible balloons.

that she was trying to apologize for
her high-tempered sister and cheer
him up at the same time.
She was older than Vera, but for the

the little home he had bought, and

EATS WITH HIS MEN.
Kaiser Depends on "GouIash
Cannons" for Meals.
Intimate Picture OF the soIdier-Emper
or In the Fleld-No Special Prep
arations Of Any Kind Are
Made for Him.

New York.-An intimate picture OF
the kaiser in the field, the soldier.
emperor whose sharing of the life of
the common soldier has united the
humblest and the highest in Germany
in love, affection and v%eneration, is
given in the following dispatch to the
New York Staats-Zeitung.
The kaiser, to whom the "goulash
cannons," the great travelling kettles
of hot food, owe their existence, is
very %favorably inclined toward this
important new contrivance on the
field. Many tales are told in evidence
of this, Of which the following is one:
A country road in France-soldiers
arrive. carefully carrying dishes. The
d~ust-covered field grays who are en-
joying their repast suddenly become
attentive. On the road there appear
four riders-officers. One separates
from the group and gallops over to the
"goulash cannon"
Have you a bit left for us?"
Eat your service, captain"
Almost Immediately the other three
riders gallop up. The kaiser!- in de-
lighted surprise all shout "Hurrah!"
and the highest commander thanks
them with a smile.
"How does it taste?" he asks. "Do
not let me disturb you; I only want
a bite to eat, too; I am hungry"
Then he rides over to the 'goulash
cannon" where the captain already
has a dish filled 9or him.
He takes it good naturally and eats
In the midst of his soldiers.
Excellent, excellent" he says now
and then and asks for a second por-
ton. II am taking away your share,
but I will prove my gratitude"
The soldiers are enthusiastic and
proud that the kaiser took his food like
each of them from the same "goulash
cannon" and "dined" in their midst.
A real soldier kaiser! A rousing hur.
rah accompanies him when he takes
leave of his men with vigorous Good
day!"
In the evening several geese and
chickens were sent as Naturalization
for the moor meal" and were eaten
with great Joy for supper.
This little incident is characteristic
Of the attitude and life Of the kaiser
at the front, for he let's no 'opportun-
lily pass to take his food from the
'goulashs cannon" when he is visiting
his troops along the battle line. For
this reason no arrangements are ever
made for the kaiser's meals on these
trips.
eve will meet a 'goulash cannon
he always says when asked as to what
be wishes to order for his dinner
This is also a proof of the excellence
pr the food which the troops receive
from the. field kitchens, for the kaiser
never his arrival before
hand. No special preparations are
made for him.
II will eat what my soldiers eat,
he has often declared.

RASH KITTY BRAvED LION
And Keeper Almost Sacrificed His
Own Life to Rescue Pet From
Claws of Annoyed Animal.

The rashness of Teddy, a'plain gray
cat, official rat, catcher OF the Zoo,
nearly cost Keeper George Sichert his
life in the cage of an Infatuated
lioness.
Rats were scarce about the menag.
erie, Sc when Teddy spied a piece OF
meat in the cage Of Helen, an eleven.
year-old African %lioness, he decided
to brave the wrath of his huge cousin.
Cautiously Teddy made his light-foot,
ed way through the bars toward the
discarded remnant Of Helen's supper.
Hardly had he touched it, however.
than Helen awoke from a seeming
doze, and with a sweep of her power.
full paw sent the cat flying across the
cage.
Keeper Sichert, whose especial pet
Teddy has been for the last six years,
was cleaning a cage near by. Calling
several painters to his aid, Sichert
%endeavored by reaching through the
bars with his cleaning instrument to
rescue the cat, while the painters with
iron bars kept the snarling iloness in
a corner.
Failing in this, Sichert entered an
adjoining cage which connects with
Helen's by a trap door. Three times
Sichert dived through the door to
reach the cat, but each time the
charge of the lioness drove him back
The fourth attempt was successful
although the trap door was slammed
down just in time to save the keeper
from the Infatuated lioness' claws
