WinninQ Philosophy.

While Francis Ouimets golf wasn't
quite so good, or nearly SO good as
it generally Is, in the recent open
championship his rare philosophy was
still better than par.
''I played badly" he said, "but
could have played worse. But that
part of it didn't matter. l had cork
ing good time, which is what | play
golf for. l don't ever want to win an
other championship if winning one is
going to spoil my week. For some
times you can win, and sometimes you
can't, but in the end you generally get
what is coming"
When you are at the top of your
game" added Ouimet, 1.-The game plays

LEAVE NOTHING FOR ENEMY
pert In the Matter Of Destroying
Weapons of War.

Military men are taught how to
destroy surplus stores which may be
useful to the enemy and which are in
danger Of capture.
1t may be necessary to destroy
guns to prevent them falling into the
hands of the enemy, or to make cap
tured guns useless. If small
amount Of dynamite or other explosive
is available of course this can be done
very effectively.
If not, the breech of the gun is
closed and the hinge-joints smashed
as much as possible with handspike
or pick If there is time a few rifle
shots fired at the vital points of the
gun effectively jam the mechanism so
as to make it useless.
With rifles, the butts are broken
off and the barrels destroyed as much
as possible. To do this the rifles
are we'll heated over fire and
smashed up with heavy hammers. The
army hand books lay down that party
of five soldiers should be able to
destroy so rifles an hour
Ammunition is destroyed by plac'
ing it in a deep pit and setting it on
fire.
Telegraph wires are cut up into
small pieces and the poles cut down

FLOURISH ONLY IN WOODS
Wild Flowers That Refuse to Be Con-

Among the truly wild" flowers, two

twinberry, or partridge berry, the last

lily, and a distant relative of the coffee
tree. The mayflower is widest and
shyest OF all. No more is the eagle
at home in the farmyard or the cardi-

in the garden. AS the imprisoned
cardinal pines away and dies when
the gilded bars Of birdcage separate
it from its liberty, SO the mayfiower
sickens and withers away in the gar

EYE OF SUBMARINE
Periscope Believed Brought to
Point of Perfection.
Latest instrument Enables Command
er to Be Practically Sure That
Deadly Torpedo Will Reach
Ship He Would Destroy.

Everybody knows the simple prin-
ciple of the periscope, but few ars
aware Of the minute refinements of
the construction OF the perfected In
strnment, its delicacy and Importance.
Down in the coming tower. in the
semidarkness, with the throbbing OF
machinery and the hushed hum or
the twilight water slipping past the
lookout scuttles, the commander OF
the submarine has been carefully
studying the course OF his prey and
making calculations as to its speed.
carefully laying his own course in ac-
cordance. Now the time has come
to take chance, for soon the peri
scope splash will be observed, to re-
suit in a fusillade of projectiles, and
a twisting, lodging course on the part
of the cruiser, and the submarine
would be baffied.
The officer takes his final observa-
ton, lays his course. presses : but
ton, and the eircular-framed picture
before him is extinguished. His pre-
viously calculated period of blind run
ming expires. If his calculations have
been correct, and the cruiser has not
changed its course or speed he should
be within torpedo range, with the
tubes pointing toward the target. Is
he?
The periscope is pointed carefully
in the direction which should reveal
the ship, pointed as carefully and ac-
curately as a gun would be pointed.
Everything is in readiness, the crew
is standing by the torpedo tubes. and
the second they receive their signal
the great cigar-shaped missile will be
on its way. The commander presses
a button. The hydraulic power is re-
leased. AS quickly as a rattlesnake
strikes and withdraws, the periscope
shoots up and down. For a fraction
of an instant an overwhelmingly large
vision of the enemy snip flashes up.
His calculations have been correct,
and with the speed Of thought he
reaches for the signal button which
will send the messenger of death"
on it's way.
Too late the lookout and the officers
on the bridge of the cruiser observe
! the furrow which marks the approach
of the torpedo through the water. The
helm is thrown hard, but without avail.
Before the ship answers the furrow
has ended in a resounding thump
against the hull, the explosion follows,
and the work is done.
With the old-style periscope this ac-
tion would have been impossible
granting a sharp lookout had been
kept On the cruiser, for the only way
the captain Of the submarine could
have taken his observations would
have been TO bring his craft sufficient
ly near the surface to push the rigid
periscope out of the water, and with
