where he will spend~the next six
months.
He declined to vc:ce any opinion
either upon the China-Tapan trouble,
which he left behind or the mission
which takes him u the homeland.

formation of Americas interests in
the Far East to President Wilson.
Ee, however, declares the visit to Oe
for a vacation.

Capt. J. d. DOugherty, who presented
Governor Pinkllam's compliments and
the greetings of Hawaii. This is the
ambassador first absence from the
embassy since his appointment in
1913. During his stay in America the
United States will 0e represented in

Honolulu is certainly a pretty
place." said the ambassador when the
Manchurias whistle sounded for de-
Larture this morning Il hope to stay
longer next time than have on these
two passing visits"
He praised the work Of Dr. Sidney
l.. Gulick and DR.. Smaller Mathews in
their mission of good will to Japan
recently, The ambassador also has
words Of praise for Premier Count Ok

est of terms.
Count Okuma is a very affable
man." added Mr.. Guthrie. Il have
visited him both at his office and at
his university at Waseda and have
found him always kind and courteous

Work Your Capital Hard!

Money is mans one asset which cannot be
Overworked. Don't look upon the money dis
bursed in advertising as an expense! 1t is an
investment! And if properly invested will earn
big dividends.
Neither should YOU consider the expenditure
incurred by advertising as a moral obligation
or a charitable donation which might serve to
purchase a certain amount of goodwill, etc.
The putting aside of such thoughts will aid you
in deciding in a -blooded businesslike
manner where you shall place your ads to get
the best value.
The intrinsic values of advertising if prop
erly exploited are almost inestimabe.
The leading newspaper of city is the most
efficient medium of advertising for the retail
merchant Use it!

For Real Business Men
Re: Circulation and Advertising:

The same sound reasoning which prompts
you in purchasing your goods from the dealer
who offers you the most merchandise for your
money, all others things being equal, should
cause you"to invest your advertising funds
where you are assured of the highest possible
percentage of returns.

For Example

Say that there are two or more mediums cir
culating through a certain district but that
their circulation, in figures, vary. In other
words, more people read one of these mediums
than any of the Others In such an instance
the advertising rates, in all being equal, which
would be the medium for the keen and logical
business man to employ? The answer hardly
need be asked.
Weigh the distribution of your advertising
appropriation for one year as carefully as you
do OUTLAWS in other directions and see if you do
not gain thereby.

There are several buildings for
the different departments. The
main building, a huge barn like
structure where the guns are made.
the tool shop. the foundry where
the steel cylinders for the guns
and the different smaller parts are
cast, the power-house where all
the electric power for the works is
generated, the department where
the mechanism for the torpedoes
is put together. There are also
many other smaller shops for diff
ferent purposes. The total num-
Der OF workmen employed in this
vast work shop is seven thousand.
While taking some notes about
the different things of interest the
writer was almost scared stiff by
an important looking little man
with a Charlie Chaplin mustache
and cute little blue uniform who
snapped at him so viciously that
he was afraid to write any more
while in the yard, although assured
by several other employees that it
was perfectly all right.
In the main building all the
work on the big guns is done,
from shaping the outside of the
barrel on the big steel lathes to
rifiing the inside, Every smallest
item in the making of the guns is
checked two or three times and
every care is taken to make the
guns perfect. Just as much care
is taken with the lightest inch
rifle as with the big fourteen inch
guns and just as much care is
taken per square inch on the big
ones as on the little ones.
One of the interesting features in
the Navy Yard is the museum OF
naval things. All kinds of guns
from little things that could be
carried around by hand which were
used in the time of Columbus to the
more modern weapons used in the
Spanish American war. Only the
sights and controlling levers and
wheels in the last named THINGS
are in the museum as space is
rather limited. There are muzzle
loading, solid breeched swivel guns
with the breech terminating in q
handle. Besides these cannon
there is display of old pistols and
guns used before and during the
civil war. 1t is all very interest
ing.
The navy yard is the place
where all of Uncle Sans naval
guns are made. Every kind of
gun is made here from a inch rapid
tiregun for repelling submarines to
the huge forteen inch rifles which
knock holes in twelve inch armor
at distance of ten or twelve
miles. To get to the Navy Yard
one has only to stand on some
part of Pennsylvania avenue, or
any other principal street, and
board car marked Navy Yard.
This car takes you in front of an
imposing old style stone building
in which is the gate. Before
passing thru the gate the visitor is
relieved of a camera, if heis lucky
enough to possess one, and given
small metal check in return. No
pictures may be taken in the yard.

A Trip To The Capital
By Stewart r. Gszders

which are surrounded by huge
stone wall are the homes of the
officers stationed there and the
barracks of the troops. There are
several pretty lawns around the
entrance which are decorated By
guns with stories. There is one
gun taken from the Maine, and the
two guns which composed the en-
tire armament of Decater's ship
when she wiped up with the Ba:-
barry pirates, and an old gun from
an old pirate ship. None of the
last three guns have sights and
they are mounted on carriages
like the originals which have no
means of changing the range.
Torpedo tubes for the decks of
battle ships and Torpedoe boat de-
stroYers are manufactured in one
of the departments of this plant
and if a visitor is lucky he may
see the tubes tested. In testing the
tubes the same method of proce-
dure is used as in firing torpedce
against an enemy but dummy
torpedoe is used. The torpedoes
are discharged from the tube by
compressed air and as the messen-
gers OF destruction issue from the
tubes lever sets the mechanism
of the torpedoe to work and it
PROCEEDS under its own power.
Arlington cemetary about five
miles out of Washington by car
line, is one place where every
tourist should go. This is the
National cemetery in which the
soldiers and sailors are buried.
Many civil war veterans are in
termed in this beautiful cemetery
too. There are probably more i'm
posing grave stones and monu-
ments in Arlington than in any
other place of its kind in the u S.
There are memorials to generals
and to heroes of the army and
navy scattered all over the grounds.
Robert r. Lees old mansion is the
headquarters of the cemetery and
surrounding this old home are
some of the most beautiful grounds
in or around Washington. 1t is

beds have some lettering in them

One of the most picturesque
views that can be seen is the view

across the Potomac to Washing

can be seen quite plainly.
1t is a good thing.while on this
trip to see Ft, Meyers, and the
wireless station which are both out
there. There are several thousand
troops, cavalry and infantry, sta

one Of the several garrisons for
the protection of the capital. The
wireless station is the principal
government station on the main
land and has an enormous range.
There are three towering masts,
like the masts on battleships only
many times as large.
On the trip to and from Airing
ton the visitor passes thru historic
Georgetown, which was on its
present site before Washington
was anything but a swamp.
Georgetown is now incorporated
with Washington and is little
more than a ward now, but there
are many things of interest to be
seen there, including bridge
across the Potomac, very old
canal, Georgetown University and
many buildings, built in Colonial
